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.
Zeolite clinoptilolite is a volcanic mineral from the group of zeolites. The porous structure is associated with a large inner surface. Due to the anionic framework charge, ions (e.g., Pb^2+) can be absorbed or exchanged. The specific Panaceo PMA zeolite is approved as a class IIa medical device for the repair of the intestine inner lining. It is CE certified and complies with the relevant European Union regulations in terms of safety and effectiveness. Zeolite is known for its absorbing properties. Because of these properties and the results of several human studies, it warrants the investigation of possible effects on specific indications in human medicine, e.g. irritable bowel syndrome. The diagnosis "irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)" is according to the ROME Foundation, an US medical society. IBS is a disorder with dysfunction of the bowels, a latent inflammation is discussed. The present study aims to evaluate the following effects in patients with IBS: - Primary endpoint: effect on the symptoms of IBS. - Secondary endpoint: intestinal wall permeability, integrity of the tight junctions as measured by the change in zonulin concentration in the stool. - Further endpoints: - Inflammation parameters and anti-inflammatory laboratory parameters. - Biodiversity of the gastrointestinal microbiome. - histamine-associated parameters. - Constipation as a possible side effect. For this purpose, a double-blind randomized controlled trial (RCT) is realized prospectively in a monocentric outpatient-controlled study. The subjects take the test compound daily (verum, reference substance) for 12 weeks and document the intake of the study-substance, intake of medications, stool-frequency and consistency. They receive "before" and "after" the intervention phase a blood and stool analysis for the determination of parameters for intestinal wall integrity (zonulin) inflammation (hsCRP, interleukin-10, calprotectin), histamine metabolism, microbiome diversity. The pilot study is realized ahead of the detailed planning of a later main study.
Study of the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and immunogenicity of Vixarelimab (KPL-716) in subjects with prurigo nodularis.
Iron deficiency and anemia are clearly associated with the onset of allergy and allergic diseases, whereas an improved iron status seems to prevent the onset of allergy in humans. Iron-deficiency can be absolute or functional. Functional iron-deficiency occurs during immune activation and may be reflective for the hyperactive state of atopic subjects. The investigators plan a prophylactic dietary intervention study in atopic/allergic and non-allergic individuals that transport chelated iron to immune cells. Over the course of six months, oral supplementation of placebo or whey protein-bound chelated iron will be given and 1) clinical reactivity 2) iron status and 3) changes in the microflora due to the treatment will be assessed.
This study aims to profile the siderophore-content in the human gut from allergic and non-allergic subjects and to assess their contribution in iron homeostasis.
The XIENCE 28 USA Study is prospective, single arm, multi-center, open label, non-randomized trial to evaluate safety of 1-month (as short as 28 days) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in subjects at high risk of bleeding (HBR) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the approved XIENCE family (XIENCE Xpedition Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System [EECSS], XIENCE Alpine EECSS and XIENCE Sierra EECSS) of coronary drug-eluting stents.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate comparability of the ORR in patients with previously untreated, advanced stage FL who receive GP2013-treatment to patients who receive MabThera-treatment.
This will be a single center, open label, exploratory research study to assess the dermal and systemic PK of marketed products of lidocaine/prilocaine in 26 healthy participants using dermal open flow microperfusion (dOFM) and microdialysis (MD) for dermal sampling. The clinical study aims to identify potential cross-talk between the extracellular compartments of viable skin and blood circulation during (bioequivalence) BE assessments.
To compare the efficacy and safety of FE 999049 (follitropin delta) and its personalized dosing algorithm in controlled ovarian stimulation for in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) using a long gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist protocol versus a short GnRH antagonist protocol.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible visual impairment in Western Countries. It is a well-established fact that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a key part in the development of the neovascular (or exsudative) form of AMD. Today, VEGF-inhibition by means of injection of anti-VEGF agents into the vitreous cavity constitutes the gold standard of AMD therapy. In physiological conditions, VEGF acts as a vasodilator by activating endothelial nitric oxide synthase. As a consequence, VEGF inhibition should result in significant ocular vasoconstriction, which has in fact been demonstrated for bevacizumab and ranibizumab, two of the three available VEGF-inhibitors. The understanding and awareness of potentially harmful implications of the induced vasoconstriction on retinal and/or optic nerve head structure and function is sparse. This is especially delicate, as most patients with exsudative AMD require repeated injections on a monthly basis for many years. Aflibercept, the latest anti-VEGF agent approved for intravitreal use in 2011, offers a superior binding affinity for VEGF compared to the former two drugs. However, as of today, its effect on ocular circulation is unclear. With Laser Speckle Flowgraphy (LSFG), a commercially available, non-invasive and patient-friendly method for the evaluation of blood flow at the optic nerve head, the choroid and retina has arisen in recent years. We aim to measure ocular perfusion with LSFG before and after 3 consecutive injections of aflibercept in unilateral neovascular age-related maculopathy.
This is a single-center, prospective, dose-escalation, pilot study in 15 end-stage renal disease patients on chronic hemodialysis with secondary hyperparathyroidism.
