There are about 10460 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.
The fibrotic interstitial lung diseases (fILD) is a group of debilitating chronic lung conditions that are characterised by scarring of lung tissue, dyspnoea on exertion and significant physical impairment. Exercise training is recommended for people with fILD in improving breathlessness and exercise tolerance. However, despite the best efforts of patients and clinicians, many of those who participate are not attaining its benefits. The current exercise training strategies of moderate intensity continuous training may not be well suited to fILD. High intensity interval training (HIIT), short bouts of high-intensity exercise regularly interspersed with periods of rest or light exercise may be an alternate exercise training option for people with fILD. The study will determine to whether HIIT is better than the current method of continuous exercise training at moderate intensity in improving exercise tolerance, breathlessness and quality of life in people with fILD. A randomised controlled, assessor blinded trial will be conducted. A total 130 people with fILD will be randomly assigned to moderate intensity continuous training or HIIT. If this trial demonstrates that HIIT is effective, it will provide an exercise training strategy that can readily be implemented in practice that will maximise the outcomes of exercise training for people with fILD.
This is an Investigator initiated retrospective and prospective single cohort study. The study will utilize an international registry and develop a specimen biobank to provide an improved understanding of the natural history of hyposplasminogenemia, to elucidate the heterogeneity of phenotypic expression, identify markers to predict disease course, and inform improved therapeutic modalities
ECMO is associated with significant costs, risks and requires specialist training and expertise. EXCEL is a novel, high-quality, detailed prospective registry of patients requiring ECMO in Australia and New Zealand. The registry provides information on patient selection, complications, costs and patient reported outcome measures. EXCEL uses the Theoretical Domains Framework to identify evidence-practice gaps and explore barriers and enablers to tailor implementation of evidence
This study evaluates KRT-232, a novel oral small molecule inhibitor of MDM2, for the treatment of patients with Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) who have failed treatment with at least one anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy or in combination with avelumab in MCC patients who are anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 treatment naïve. Inhibition of MDM2 is a novel mechanism of action in MCC.
Current clinical society guidelines and statements are non-specific and relatively open-ended regarding the optimal timing to restart non-warfarin oral anticoagulant (NOAC) after gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who require the prophylactic medication for stroke prevention. These patients are at increased risk for devastating future thromboembolic events including stroke if NOAC is not resumed promptly, whilst premature resumption of anticoagulants can result in recurrent GIB, haemorrhage, anaemia, myocardial ischaemia and infarction in those with ischaemic heart disease, and even death. However, the question as to how early a NOAC can be safely restarted after acute GIB has not been previously answered, and there remains an important knowledge gap.
The prognostic relevance of isolated non-ischemic LGE (i.e. with no underlying "labelled" cardiomyopathy) is unclear, and current guidelines to not state on the clearance of athlete with this type of findings as regards to competitive or intense sport practice. The principal objective of the study is to evaluate during a five-years follow up, the clinical outcome of athletes with this kind of findings. The secondary objective is the determination of prognostic factors. The management and follow-up of the athletes will be let at the appraisal of each center.
A community-based "test and treat" intervention integrating point-of-care HCV RNA testing, non-invasive liver disease assessment and linkage to care will lead to a reduction in HCV prevalence among people attending Aboriginal health services.
The reason for this study is to see if the study drug baricitinib is safe and effective in the treatment of JIA in participants ages 1 to 17. This study is for participants that have been enrolled in studies I4V-MC-JAHV (NCT03773978) or I4V-MC-JAHU.
This is an open-label, multicenter, extension study. Patients who are receiving clinical benefit from atezolizumab monotherapy or atezolizumab in combination with other agent(s) or comparator agent(s) during participation in a Genentech or Roche-sponsored study (the parent study), who are eligible to continue treatment and who do not have access to the study treatment locally, may continue to receive study treatment in this extension study following roll-over from the parent study.
This is a first-in-human Phase 1/2, non-randomized, multi-centre, open-label clinical study designed to investigate safety, tolerability, PK, and preliminary anti-tumour activity of [225Ac]-FPI-1434 (radioimmuno-therapeutic agent) in patients with solid tumours that demonstrate uptake of [111In]-FPI-1547 (radioimmuno-imaging agent), and to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of repeat doses of [225Ac]-FPI-1434 Injection in patients with solid tumours that demonstrate uptake of [111In]-FPI-1547 (radioimmuno-imaging agent).
