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 aim of the study is to investigate the safety of a 6% HES (Hydroxyethyl Starch) solution (Volulyte 6%) versus an electrolyte solution (Ionolyte) in patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery.
Prospective, multi-center, randomized, single blind study
The primary objective of the clinical trial is to evaluate the data of an app for smartphones (BiP-App) with regard to sleep, movement, mood and communication behavior. The data will be compared between two groups: people with a bipolar affective disorder and individuals without a psychiatric disorder. Secondary objective of the trial is to investigate if it is possible to detect early warning symptoms of depressive / (hypo) manic episodes via the measured behavior patterns. Furthermore it will be evaluated whether the BiP-app can find applicability in the examined patient group. Study design: Clinical evaluation of a medical device without CE mark; Parallel study design
Arterial hypertension is the single largest contributor to mortality world-wide, and only 30-50% of diagnosed and treated patients achieve their blood pressure goal. The APOTHECARE trial is designed to identify treated patients with uncontrolled hypertension in community pharmacies in order to improve blood pressure control through intensification of antihypertensive therapy.
The purpose of this study is to obtain long-term clinical data from patients approximately 15 years after their first clinical event, who participated in the former BENEFIT 304747 study and were treated at least once within that study. This study will collect clinical information on the disease course, on disability, relapses, cognitive function over time, quality of life, depression, fatigue, resource use, and employment status. In addition, brain MRI is performed.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of a tocilizumab-based regimen compared with placebo on top of rapidly tapered glucocorticoid treatment in a double- blind, controlled fashion, focussing on glucocorticoid-free remission of disease.
In this study Triamcinolone acetonide will be applied intratympanically before cochlear implant surgery. After round window exposure, a perilymph sample and simultaneously a blood sample will be drawn. Triamcinolone levels will then be analyzed in the samples.
The study is a phase I multicentre randomized, open, parallel-arm clinical trial conducted to investigate the IMP, namely 111In-CP04. The study consists of preclinical (to establish a clinically useful formulation for the radiolabelled peptide CP04), and a clinical step. The main objective of the clinical part of the project is to establish the safety of i.v. administration of a high peptide amount and to assess the tracer biodistribution and dosimetry in MTC and normal tissues and to determine critical organs as well as the evaluation of the potential of CCK2 receptor scintigraphy to detect cancer lesions for both low (10ug) and high (50ug) peptide amount and the decrease of kidney dose after co-administration of gelofusine /gelaspan as a nephroprotective agent. To achieve this, the following study design has been accepted: the first 4 patients will receive 2 peptide amount of CP04: low peptide amount (for diagnostic purpose) and high peptide amount (for therapeutic purpose) of CP04. If no SAE is present, the remaining pts will be randomized for 2 arms: high peptide amount of 111In-CP04 with and without gelofusine/gelaspan infusion. It is expected that CCK-2/gastrin receptor imaging will become a valid diagnostic method for a specific non-invasive staging and follow-up of patients with MTC, and treatment of recurrent and disseminated disease will be more efficient with minimized nephro- and myelotoxicity (if 111In labelled).
Research project in which blood samples of patients undergoing UVB phototherapy for the treatment of different cutaneous diseases will be investigated for changes of folate levels and further vitamins over the course of treatment.
The International Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty (BPA) Registry is a prospective, multi-center, long-term observational project. Scheduled to start data collection in Q4 2017, the registry will run for approximately four years with a follow-up time for each patient of at least two years. Its primary objective is to investigate the efficacy and safety of BPA intervention in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) not amenable to pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA).
