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.
Primary evaluation of the safety, tolerability and feasibility regarding specific postoperative complications of an adjuvant treatment with catumaxomab administered after curative tumor resection subsequent to a neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
The study is designed as a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in pre- and postmenopausal women who will undergo surgery for breast cancer. Subjects will either receive estetrol or placebo during a 2 week treatment period. Several biological markers, such as a cellular growth marker and cell death markers, will be assessed in the tumor tissue and surrounding normal tissue before and after the treatment period. During the 2 week interval between diagnosis of breast cancer and surgical resection, no therapy for breast cancer is usually administered.
The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy and safety of volinanserin in the population of patients complaining of sleep maintenance insomnia. The patients suffering from that condition frequently wake up during the night, their sleep is non restorative and they suffer from a significant distress or impairment in their daily activities consecutive to insomnia.
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether overall response to cetuximab combined with cisplatin is better than overall response to cisplatin alone together with showing that the overall response for cetuximab and cisplatin was above a pre-specified threshold of 0.2 in the treatment of "triple negative" metastatic breast cancer. The secondary objective of this study is to compare the differences between the two treatment groups using the following criteria : Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Time, Overall Survival (OS), Time to Response (TTR) and Safety.
This is a mono-centre trial performed at the medical ICU at the Medical University Graz. There will be a study visit (V1) and a follow-up assessment (V2). In the study visit (V1) arterial blood glucose values will be monitored and subcutaneous sampling of interstitial fluid (ISF) with microdialysis for glucose determination and with microperfusion for cytokine-measurement will be performed. The study visit will last for 26 hours starting with the insertion of two catheters in the abdominal subcutaneous tissue (one microdialysis- and one microperfusion catheter). The primary hypothesis of the study is: Interstitial fluid glucose concentration profiles correlates to the arterial blood glucose concentration profile in patients with severe sepsis in the medical ICU.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of and to select a treatment regimen of pomalidomide (CC-4047) either as single-agent or in combination with prednisone to study further in patients with myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia (MMM).
The objectives of this study are to assess the immune response as well as the safety and tolerability of an H5N1 influenza vaccine in an adult and elderly population. Further, the study will assess the need for a booster vaccination and whether a 6-month booster or a 12-month booster is more appropriate. An independent data safety monitoring board will review and evaluate the safety data obtained in this study on an ongoing basis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectivity of guided self-help via Internet and bibliotherapy in the treatment of bulimia nervosa (BN) in young women.
This is an open mono-centre randomised controlled trial performed at the Medical University Graz including a treatment visit (V1). In the treatment visit (V1) after admittance to the ICU arterial blood glucose values will be monitored and either the software-algorithm eMPC will be used to adjust the infusion rate of intravenously administered human soluble insulin to normalise arterial blood glucose or routine treatment will be used to establish tight glycaemic control. The treatment visit will last for 72 hours. The primary hypothesis of the study is that blood glucose control by the eMPC algorithm is not inferior compared to the implemented routine protocol.
The BEYOND Follow-Up study will give patients who participated in the preceding BEYOND study the opportunity to continue treatment with the 500µg dose of interferon beta (IFNB) 1b and will further investigate the safety and tolerability profile of interferon beta 1b 500µg during longer-term treatment.
