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.
Unconscious touching of a person's own head or neck (for example by scratching) is a frequently observed and completely normal physiological movement pattern in humans, which when done by medical personnel attending a patient poses a high risk of unconscious self-contamination, even of an already disinfected hand, and of subsequent contamination of the patient. However, as compared to an ungloved hand, a gloved hand is felt to be "foreign," which could reduce the frequency of self-contact and thus the contamination rate. Wearing protective gloves is highly recommended in medical practice. The purpose of this study is to explore how wearing, or not wearing, protective gloves affects - the frequency of unconscious self-contact - contamination of the gloved/ungloved hand
The 12-week core study was designed to evaluate risk-benefit of three subcutaneous dose regimens of ACZ885, added on to stable methotrexate (MTX) therapy (greater than or equal to 7.5 mg/week), compared to placebo in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The study investigated the magnitude of effect as well as onset of effect for the different dose regimens. The primary objective of the extension studies was to assess long-term safety and tolerability of canakinumab (ACZ885) in patients with active RA. CACZ885A2201E1 evaluated this objective in patients who had participated in the core study (CACZ885A2201) and CACZ885A2201E2 did the same in patients who completed the first extension study.
The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of roflumilast to placebo on pulmonary function and symptomatic parameters in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) during concomitant administration of tiotropium. The study duration will last up to 28 weeks. The study will provide further data on safety and tolerability of roflumilast.
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre, global Phase III trial comparing the efficacy of adjuvant oral lapatinib versus placebo in high-risk subjects with head and neck cancer following surgery. Lapatinib or placebo will be administered post-operatively in combination with chemoradiotherapy followed by maintenance with lapatinib or placebo for 1 year. The primary goal is to determine if lapatinib is effective at reducing the recurrence of the disease in these high-risk patients.
The objective of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a Split Virus, Vero Cell derived, Seasonal Influenza Vaccine (VCIV) in comparison to a Licensed Egg Derived, Split Virus, Seasonal Influenza Vaccine (EIV) in healthy subjects 18 years of age and older. Approximately 1000 subjects will be randomly assigned in a 3:1 ratio to receive a single injection of VCIV or EIV. Subjects will be monitored for 180 days following vaccination for occurrence of adverse reactions and for antibody response to the vaccine.
To compare the efficacy of oral CC-5013 in combination with oral pulse high-dose dexamethasone to that of placebo and oral high-dose pulse dexamethasone as treatment for subjects with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma."
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ceftaroline is effective and safe in the treatment of complicated skin infections in adults.
To determine if tadalafil 5 mg daily compared to placebo when given for 12 weeks improves getting and maintaining an erection in men with erectile dysfunction and if there are improvements in the sexual quality of life of the man and his female study partner
This project is a multicenter study in which we will investigate a dual concept of nevogenesis. Study location is the Department of Dermatology at the Medical University of Graz in collaboration with centers in Austria (Vienna), Italy (Naples, Benevento, Modena), Spain (Barcelona) and the United States (New York). The hypothesis is that small congenital melanocytic nevi (CMN), "early" acquired melanocytic nevi in childhood (AMN) and dermal nevi, all dermatoscopically characterized by globular pattern, belong to the same spectrum of genetically determined melanocytic proliferations that develop due to endogenous pathways, in contrast to "true" acquired melanocytic nevi, dermatoscopically showing reticular pattern, that develop due to exogeneous factors such as UV-exposure.
This study compared the safety and efficacy of combination therapy with adalimumab plus methotrexate (MTX) to that of MTX monotherapy (i.e., placebo plus MTX) in subjects with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
