There are about 10401 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Australia. 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.
High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) are introduced to clinical practice to improve oxygenation. Our group were the first to report the use of HFNC in extubated patients that showed comparable delivery of oxygen and improved comfort. These HFNC are subsequently shown to be useful in several clinical conditions in critically ill patients including respiratory failure due to hypoxia, hypercapnia (exacerbation of chronic obstructive lung disease), or post-extubation, pre-intubation oxygenation, and others. Recently a new mode of high flow oxygen therapy has been presented on the market where the prongs of high flow have two different diameters. These two-nare size high flow nasal cannula are capable of delivering gases at a flow rate of 15-50 L/min, similar to the conventional HFNP but the difference in the diameters provide different levels of positive pressure as compared to conventional HFNP. This positive pressure could help in gas exchange of patients who need more oxygen. These devices are approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA); the medicine and therapeutic regulatory agency of the Australian Government. Our aim is to compare the two size nare high flow nasal cannula with conventional high flow nasal cannula in extubated patients in intensive care unit in a randomised crossover trial. The comparison will include arterial blood gasses, physiological data including heart rate, respiratory rate, saturations as well as comfort and tolerance of the patients to two size nare high flow nasal cannuale.
This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety and PK profile of a single subcutaneous dose of IMG-007 in healthy participants. The study will comprise of a 5-week screening period, a 3-day In-patient Period in a clinical research unit (CRU) and an Out-patient Follow-up Period up to 127 days. The study will include 3 dose cohorts which will be enrolled sequentially. Participants will receive a single subcutaneous dose of IMG-007 or placebo at Baseline according to their assigned dose.
This proof-of-concept study is being performed to evaluate whether the hypoglossal nerve can be stimulated using a small series of electrodes placed surgically via a percutaneous approach. Minimally invasive off the shelf medical devices will be used and observation of the characteristic physiological responses to stimulation of the HGN, will be assessed.
This is a randomized, observer-blind, positive-controlled study. There will be 3 treatment groups, in each treatment group, participants will be randomly assigned to receive either investigational vaccine (Low-adjuvant dose VLP-Polio, Medium dose VLP-Polio, or High dose VLP-Polio that are defined as Dose A, Dose M, and Dose H, respectively) or control vaccine in a ratio of 3:1 in each group. Distribution of participant's gender should be balanced in each group.
The purpose of this study is see how effective is JNJ-77242113 in participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
This study is open to adults who are at least 18 years old and have - a body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or more, or - a BMI of 27 kg/m² or more and at least one health problem related to their weight. People with type 2 diabetes cannot take part in this study. Only people who have previously not managed to lose weight by changing their diet can participate. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called survodutide (BI 456906) helps people living with overweight or obesity to lose weight. Participants are divided into 3 groups by chance, like drawing names from a hat. 2 groups get different doses of survodutide and 1 group gets placebo. Placebo looks like survodutide but does not contain any medicine. Every participant has a 2 in 3 chance of getting survodutide. Participants inject survodutide or placebo under their skin once a week for about one and a half years. In addition to the study medicine, all participants receive counselling to make changes to their diet and to exercise regularly. Participants are in the study for about 1 year and 7 months. During this time, it is planned that participants visit the study site up to 14 times and receive 6 phone calls by the site staff. The doctors check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. The participants' body weight is regularly measured. The results are compared between the groups to see whether the treatment works.
This prospective study aims to evaluate the responsiveness of the validated investigator global assessment (IGA) and composite area index score for keratosis pilaris by data collection through treatment and scoring sessions held at a private practice and relevant statistical analysis.
This is a Phase 1, first-in-human, randomized, placebo-controlled, observer blind study. The effect of one or two doses of an investigational vaccine on safety, reactogenicity, kinetics and magnitude of the post-vaccination antibody response will be evaluated at different timepoints as compared to placebo in healthy adults. Approximately 128 evaluable subjects will be enrolled in this study; n=96 receiving investigational vaccine and n=32 receiving placebo. The study has a screening period (Day -28 to Day -1), a treatment period (Day 1 to Day 43) and a follow-up period (Day 44 to Day 202).
The purpose of this study is to find a safe, tolerable, and efficacious dose of BMS-986466 when given orally, in combination with adagrasib with or without cetuximab in participants with advanced KRAS G12C-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), pancreatic duct adenocarcinoma (PDAC), biliary tract cancer (BTC), or colorectal cancer (CRC).
SRN-001 is a novel small interfering RNA (siRNA) drug being developed to treat fibrosis using Self Assembled Micelle inhibitory ribonucleic acid (SAMiRNA™) technology. Amphiregulin (AREG) is a growth factor involved in fibroblast proliferation and myofibroblast transformation which is the hallmark of fibrosis in lung and kidney tissues. AREG is a downstream gene overexpressed by Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) during fibrosis, promoting fibroblast to myofibroblast transition (FMT). SRN-001 is designed to downregulate generating amphiregulin by RNA interference (RNAi). The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in healthy participants. This trial is first-in-human clinical trial to develop SAMiRNA™ to utilize as therapeutic use.
