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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of intetumumab when given in combination with docetaxel and prednisone to participants with metastatic (spread of cancer cells from one part of the body to another) hormone-refractory (not responding to treatment) prostate cancer (abnormal tissue that grows and spreads in the body until it kills).
A cholesterol/lipid profile screening project of high risk patients with hyperlipidaemia (secondary prevention) who already receive cholesterol-lowering therapy. Lipid profile and rate of patients who are treated to target (which is <100mg/dl for patients with high risk and <70mg/dl for patients at very high risk) are screened (office-based specialists). The doctors therapy decisions after the screening and possible reasons for these decisions will be documented. Our aim is to evaluate dosing habits, to evaluate how many patients are treated to their LDL-C target and to underline the importance of treating patients to their cholesterol targets.

To provide access to a telaprevir-based treatment to subjects of the Control Group of Study VX06-950-106 (NCT00420784), VX05-950-104 (NCT00336479), and VX05-950-104EU (NCT00372385) who stopped treatment due to inadequate response to treatment. Safety, tolerability, and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) levels will be collected.
The EU funded project CLINICIP (Closed Loop Insulin Infusion for Critically Ill Patients) aims to develop a low-risk monitoring and control device which allows maintaining metabolic control in intensive care units. A system will be developed comprising three subsystems: a body interface for the delivery of biofluids, biosensors for the determination of glucose concentration in these biofluids and an adaptive control algorithm that generates advice and thus represents a decision support system with respect to insulin infusion rate to establish glycaemic control in critically ill patients. Within a closed loop system, intensified insulin treatment will make use of the calculations leading to external regulation of glucose. It is the aim of this study to evaluate the feasibility to establish glycaemic control in type 1 diabetic subjects over a period of 30 hours by manually combining these three - previously tested - subsystems (ABS System, extracorporeal online glucose sensor and a laptop-based computer algorithm).
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy, tolerability and remission duration of UVA 1 therapy versus 5-MOP UVA photochemotherapy for patients with severe generalized atopic dermatitis.
The planned study has two purposes: 1. It is to provide evidence that the administration of a cholinesterase inhibitor will result in an increase of IGF-I (primary variable) and in an increase of the secretion growth hormone (secondary variable) that can be maintained throughout the treatment-period of one year. 2. The study also tests the hypothesis that maintenance of increased blood levels of growth hormone and IGF-I can stop or delay the age-related changes of body composition (secondary variables) .
The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate overall survival improvement for aflibercept + docetaxel compared to docetaxel + placebo as second line treatment for participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The secondary objectives were to compare other efficacy parameters, to assess the overall safety of the two treatment arms, to assess the pharmacokinetics of intravenous (IV) aflibercept in this participant population and to determine immunogenicity of IV aflibercept in all participants.
The ROVO study is a prospective, placebocontrolled and randomised study designed to evaluate the effect of radial optic neurotomy in central vein occlusion, versus triamcinolone acetonide. 240 patients with a visual acuity < 0.5 Snellen will be randomised. Patients are treated with either RON, or a single intravitreal injection of 4 mg triamcinolone acetonide, or a placebo treatment - a "sham" injection of intravitreal triamcinolone. Patients will be examined regularly over a period of one year. Best corrected visual acuity for far and near, as well as clinical examinations, fluorescein- and indocyanine green angiograms, optical coherence tomography, and perimetry, are performed pre- and postoperatively.
The purpose of this Phase 2 randomized study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with a regimen of VELCADE, dexamethasone, and thalidomide (VDT) or VELCADE, dexamethasone, thalidomide, and cyclophosphamide (VDTC) in subjects with newly diagnosed symptomatic multiple myeloma who have received no prior treatment and are candidates to receive high-dose therapy and autologous bone marrow/stem cell transplantation.
