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 primary objective of the study is to evaluate the reduction of LDL-C by evinacumab in comparison to placebo after 16 weeks in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia (HeFH, or non-HeFH with a history of clinical ASCVD) with persistent hypercholesterolemia despite receiving maximally-tolerated LMT. Persistent hypercholesterolemia is defined as LDL-C ≥70 mg/dL (1.81 mmol/L) for those patients with clinical ASCVD and LDL-C ≥100 mg/dL (2.59 mmol/L) for those patients without clinical ASCVD.
Prophylactic salpingectomy (also called opportunistic, risk-reducing or incidental salpingectomy) has been advocated at the time of gynecologic surgery to reduce the risk of serous ovarian cancer. This study explores the acceptability and feasibility of opportunistic salpingectomy at the time of elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LCHE).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of benralizumab on the rate of asthma exacerbations, patient reported quality of life and lung function during the 24-week treatment in patients with uncontrolled, severe asthma with an eosinophilic phenotype. A subset of patients will be assessed for their ongoing chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. The study design has been updated to include a 56-week open label ANDHI in Practice (ANDHI IP) sub study upon the completion of the 24-week double-blind period of the ANDHI study.
The mechanisms of bariatric surgery-induced weight loss go beyond reductions in calorie intake and may involve several other pathways. Recently, brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been added as another potential player. Activation of BAT results in enhanced energy expenditure and promotes weight loss. Here, the investigators will study the effects of bariatric surgery on BAT function by PET/CT studies and molecular analyses of adipose biopsies. The investigators will explore different pathways that may affect BAT activation in this patient population.
From this study, it is hoped to learn if and how the gut microbiome composition, gut permeability and inflammation in patients with dementia are associated with each other. Dysbiosis may lead to an increased gut permeability, bacterial translocation and inflammation which may influence pathogenesis and progression of dementia. The novel aspect of the study will be to understand the association between gut microbiome composition, gut permeability and the presence of dementia. This will help to better understand the pathogenesis of dementia and lead to the development of novel therapeutic strategies. If this hypothesis holds true, the study will be the basis to develop new treatment options for dementia.
The aim of the COSGOD Phase III trial is to examine, if it is possible to increase survival without cerebral injury in preterm neonates <32 weeks of gestation by monitoring the cerebral tissue oxygen saturation in addition to routine monitoring of arterial oxygen saturation and heart rate and specified clinical treatment guidelines during immediate transition period after birth (the first 15 minutes).
This will be a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled parallel-arm phase II proof of concept in subjects with PD treated with a stable dose of levodopa who are experiencing both end-of-dose wearing off and Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia (LID)
The prevalence and incidence of dry eye syndrome (DES) is constantly increasing. Several therapeutic strategies have been proposed, but still no ideal regimen has been found. Recently, a new method for the non- invasive measurement of tear film thickness (TFT) based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been developed. It has been shown in previous studies that TFT correlates well with objective signs as well as with subjective symptoms of DES. In the present study the effects of three different topical lubricants (Neovis total multi®, Vismed multi® and Hydrabak® eye drops) on tear film thickness in patients with moderate to severe DES will be investigated using this device. Tear film thickness will be measured at baseline and at defined time points after single instillation. The course of tear film thickness during this study day will provide information about the corneal residency time of the three different eye drops. Patients with moderate to severe DES will be randomized to receive either Neovis total multi®, Vismed multi® or Hydrabak® eye drops. Assessment of lipid layer thickness of the tear film will be performed before and at pre-specified time points after instillation as secondary outcome. Other clinical measures for DES such as determination of tear film break up time (TFBUT), corneal fluorescein staining, Schirmer I test and subjective assessments will also be performed.
Compare carfizomib, dexamethasone, and daratumumab (KdD) to Carfilzomib and dexamethasone (Kd) in terms of progression free survival (PFS) in participants with multiple myeloma who have relapsed after 1 to 3 prior therapies.
This study will assess the safety and immunogenicity of GARDASIL®9 (V503) in 16- to 45-year-old women. The primary hypothesis of the study states that anti-HPV 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58 geometric mean titers (GMTs) at 4 weeks postdose 3 are non-inferior in adult women as compared with GMTs in young adult women.
