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.
Because of their antiinflamatory effects, glucocorticoids are often used to reduce edema in neurologic tissue and to otherwise mitigate the consequences of neural inflammation. For example, high dose prednisolone treatment has been shown to be an effective therapy for different eye diseases including severe Graves´ Ophthalmopathy and acute optic neuritis. However, contradictory results exists for the influence of high dose prednisolone therapy per se on tissue blood flow. Thus, in the current study, we plan to investigate the effect of high dose, short time therapy with intravenous prednisolone in patients with optic neuritis and severe Graves´ Ophthalmopathy.
The trial is conducted in Europe and Africa. The aim of the trial is to compare the use of insulin detemir twice daily combined with mealtime insulin aspart against that of insulin glargine once daily combined with mealtime insulin aspart. The trial involves patients with Type 1 Diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of botulinum toxin type A in treating overactive bladder in spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis patients.
This study is to assess the safety and efficacy of an add-on treatment algorithm with olmesartan, hydrochlorothiazide and amlodipine in patients with mild to moderate hypertension.
The three purposes of this study are the following: - To compare during a 6-month treatment the safety and effectiveness of idrabiotaparinux (SSR126517) with that of idraparinux (SR34006), taking into account new events of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), and bleeding risk; - To compare the activities of idrabiotaparinux and idraparinux directly in blood during and after a 6-month treatment; - To check the ability of avidin (SSR29261) to reverse the blood thinning activity of idrabiotaparinux at the end of a 6-month treatment period.
Primarily, this clinical investigation compares the rates (percentages) of pathological complete remissions attained at the time of final surgery following 6 cycles each of epirubicin + docetaxel + capecitabine-containing chemotherapy ± trastuzumab (in HER-2 positive disease) vs. epirubicin + docetaxel-containing chemotherapy ± trastuzumab (in HER-2 negative disease).
This clinical investigation examined the influence of cytostatic chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil, modulated by biologically active leucovorin, on patients’ survival time following surgery for colon carcinoma Stage II.
This clinical investigation examined the effectivity 5-fluorouracil, of adding levamisol or interferon to 5-fluorouracil, and of a 5-fluorouracil/levamisol/interferon triple combination, in terms of recurrence-free and overall survival in curatively operable colon carcinoma Stage III.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor pretreatment on inflammation and coagulation activation in human endotoxemia.
