There are about 6915 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Austria. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
Membraneppeling alone versus Membranepeeling with Membrane Limitans Interna Pelling using two different Dyes for Epiretinal Membrane Surgery.
The purpose of this study was to assess the comparative safety and effectiveness of aztreonam for inhalation solution versus tobramycin inhalation solution in adult and pediatric patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and pulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) infection.
The main objective of this trial is to provide safety data in terms of drug-related adverse events for the recommendation of the dose for further trials in the development of BI 831266. Secondary objectives are the collection of antitumour efficacy data and the determination of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of BI 831266.
Menopausal and postmenopausal women compose almost 20% of the Austrian population. Two thirds of all austrian women suffering from depression or anxiety disorders are over 45 years old. The serotonergic system, partially regulated by the steroid hormones estrogen and progesterone, plays a major role in the pathogenesis and treatment of these illnesses. To examine the effect of the hormone replacement therapy on the serotonergic system, twenty-four postmenopausal women will be measured using positron emission tomography (PET). The volunteers will participate in two PET scans. The first PET scan will be performed right before the hormone treatment starts, the second PET scan about 8 weeks after daily treatment with (1) a combination of estrogen and progesterone or (2) estrogen and placebo. This imaging study hypothesizes that the expression of the main inhibiting serotonergic receptor (the serotonin-1A receptor) will be altered by the hormone therapy. The results of the study might lead to new strategies in the treatment of psychiatric illnesses during and after the menopausal transition.
This 3-arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of taspoglutide compared to insulin glargine in patients with insulin-naive type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with metformin and sulphonylurea combination therapy. Patients will be randomized to receive taspoglutide (10 mg once weekly, or 10mg once weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg once weekly) or insulin glargine (starting dose 10 IU/day) in a ratio of 1:1:1 in addition to continued prestudy metformin treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size if 500+ individuals.
Evaluation of the effect of fluticasone propionate vs placebo applied as nasal spray on the increase of allergen-specific serum IgE levels following nasal exposure to recombinant allergens. Nasal sprays will be applied for four weeks starting two weeks before nasal provocation and serum IgE levels will be followed during eight weeks after nasal provocation.
This single arm study evaluated the bone marrow response, safety, and tolerability of 6 months treatment with Avastin (bevacizumab) monotherapy in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Patients received 8 cycles (21 days duration) of Avastin monotherapy (15mg/kg) with 6 months of follow-up.
The primary purpose of this study to determine if AZD2281 is effective and well tolerated in maintaining the improvement in your cancer after previous platinum-based chemotherapy
The study is designed as a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, multi centre study comparing perception and tolerability of investigational product and comparator. In the randomized part of the study the subjects will be given either LoFric Primo (POBE) or the comparator LoFric Primo (PVC) for use over 4 weeks. The hypothesis is that subject perception and satisfaction of POBE is equal to or better than for PVC.
Semi-recumbent position leads to improvement of gas exchange and lung mechanics in patients suffering from ALI or ARDS. Prone positioning leads to similar effects. To date, no data on the combination of these two positioning measures exist. The investigators hypothesize that head elevation in prone position leads to improvement in gas exchange and lung mechanics.
