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.
This study is open to adults with bronchiectasis. People can join the study if they produce sputum and have a history of flare-ups (also called exacerbations). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1291583 helps people with bronchiectasis. Participants are put into 4 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in groups 1, 2, and 3 get different doses of BI 1291583. Participants in group 4 get placebo. Placebo tablets look like BI 1291583 tablets, but do not contain any medicine. Participants take the tablets once a day. Participants are in the study for between 6 months and 1 year. During this time, they visit the study site about 10 times and get about 5 phone calls from the site staff. The doctors document when participants experience flare-ups during the study. The time to the first flare-ups is compared between the treatment groups. Doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This study is a multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical study, consisting of Part 1 (Phase 1b) in a sequential, dose-escalating design and Part 2 (Phase 2) in a parallel design.
This is a double blind, randomised, placebo-controlled clinical trial aiming to assess the effectiveness of Caralluma fimbriata on stress, sleep and neurotransmitters in a healthy adult population.
This is a single-blind, randomised controlled clinical trial to determine the reactogenicity and immunogenicity of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines (Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna) as booster dose in adults, who have previously received either Pfizer-BioNTech or AstraZeneca as their primary doses. Both fractional and standard doses of Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna will be tested. The trial intervention will be given in line with Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) recommendations for booster vaccine doses which allows booster doses from 5 months onwards . There will be a total of 8 groups, with 100 individuals of even spread of participants above and below 50 years in each group. The trial will be single site, based at Royal Children's Hospital, Melbourne, Australia
The primary objectives of the study are to assess the safety and tolerability of AGA2118 after single subcutaneous or intravenous administration in healthy men and postmenopausal women and to assess the safety and tolerability of AGA2118 after multiple subcutaneous administrations in men and postmenopausal women.
To evaluate feasibility and safety of the ACURATE Prime™ XL Transfemoral Aortic Valve System for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in subjects with severe native aortic stenosis who are indicated for TAVI.
This study is a Phase 1, 2-part, randomised, double-blind, controlled, clinical trial to evaluate the safety and immune response of CodaVax-H1N1 in healthy adults aged 18 to 49 years. Participants will be enrolled in autumn 2022 (southern hemisphere) and followed through the 2022 influenza season (Part A) or enrolled in autumn 2023 and followed through the 2023 influenza season (Part B). Participants will be screened within 28 days of randomization, and eligible participants in Part A will be enrolled into 1 of 3 sequential cohorts and randomised to receive a single dose of CodaVax-H1N1, placebo (normal saline), or licenced injectable seasonal influenza vaccine (Flucelvax Quad). Each subsequent cohort will include a higher dose of CodaVax H1N1 than the previous cohort, in addition to placebo and the licensed injectable seasonal influenza vaccine. In Part B, 24 eligible participants will be enrolled into 1 of 2 sequential cohorts and randomised to receive a single IM dose of CodaVax-H1N1 or placebo.
COVID-19 is a disease that has multiple facets including an inflammatory storm, it promotes blood clotting and causes kidney damage, mucinous secretions in the lung are of great importance to outcome. Increasingly sticky sputum is associated with critical illness, with considerably raised levels of a specific type of mucous protein (MUC5AC) in sputum in COVID-19 patients. There is a strong link between viral infection and mucus production via multiple inter-cellular signalling pathways including Interleukin (IL)6, IL10 and Tumour Necrosis Factor (TNF) whereby the inflammatory storm causes sudden secretion of high volumes of dense mucus. An Australian pharmaceutical company has developed BromAc (Bromelain & Acetylcysteine) for the palliative treatment of highly mucinous tumors of the appendix and lung. During pre-clinical development, they found that BromAc® rapidly dissolved and removed tumour mucin, making it a potent mucolytic. In combination, bromelain and acetylcysteine disrupt the architecture of the SARS-COV-2 virus in a way that renders it non-infective, reduced cytokines and chemokines in COVID-19 sputum and is a highly effective respiratory mucolytic. The aim of this study is to assess whether BromAc delivered into the respiratory tract as a nebulised aerosol is tolerated and safe at three specific concentrations in healthy volunteer participants. The investigators will further assess the safety of nebulised BromAc and efficacy of the drug product as a mucolytic and anti-inflammatory, and whether this improves clinical outcome in participants with COVID-19. The hypothesis is that BromAc will be tolerated by patients and will result in mucus clearance, improving oxygenation and compliance in those that are ventilated. This is a phase I study on the safety of BromAc, where 12 healthy volunteers will receive BromAc as a nebulised aerosol into the respiratory tract. BromAc is a product that combines two existing products to be delivered into the respiratory tract via nebulised aerosol delivery through a mask. The participant will be assessed for symptoms and side effects. The participant will receive nebulised BromAc at the allocated dose level for a total of 3 days. The hypothesis is that nebulised airway delivery of BromAc will be safe at the concentrations assessed.
The study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of OLP-1002 Subcutaneous (SC) injections for reducing moderate to severe pain due to osteoarthritis in a hip and/or knee joint.
This is a Phase 1, Double blind, Single ascending and Multiple ascending dose (SAD and MAD) escalation study in Healthy Volunteers.
