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.
Cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is when the heart's ability to pump oxygenated blood to the body is compromised. It is a side effect of cancer therapy which can occur as commonly as in 1 in 5 patients. When this occurs, heart failure medications are started to protect the heart from progressing to heart failure. With early detection and treatment, heart function recovers to normal in >80% of patients. Unfortunately, heart failure medications are associated with an undesirable long-term pill burden, financial costs, and side-effects (e.g., dizziness and fatigue). As a result, cancer survivors frequently ask if they can safely stop their heart failure medications once their heart function has returned to normal. Currently there is no scientific evidence in this area of Cardio-Oncology. To address this knowledge gap, the investigators have designed a randomized control trial to assess the safety of stopping heart failure medication in patients with CTRCD and recovered heart function. The investigators will enrol patients who have completed their cancer therapy and are on heart medications for their CTRCD, which has now normalized. The investigators will randomize patients with no other reasons to continue heart failure medications (e.g., kidney disease) to continuing or stopping their heart medications safely. All patients will undergo a cardiac MRI at baseline, 1 and 5 years with safety assessments at 6-8 weeks, 6 and 9 months and 3 and 5 years. The investigators will determine if stopping medications is non-inferior to continuing medications by counting the numbers of patients who develop heart dysfunction by 1 year in each group.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about a single dose of fenretinide in healthy volunteers, in both a fasted and fed state. The main questions it aims to answer are: •How well is a single dose of fenretinide tolerated? AND •How is a single dose of fenretinide metabolized in healthy volunteers? Participants will be asked to: - Remain confined in a clinical research unit for 5 days after dosing. - Provide blood samples for intense PK sampling and safety labs. - Fast for 10 hours prior to administration of study drug (fasted cohorts). - Consume a high fat meal prior to administration of study drug (fed cohort). - Return to the clinic for a single follow-up visit for safety assessments. Researchers will compare active fenretinide to placebo to see if fenretinide is more or less tolerable than placebo.
This is a modular, multicentre, open-label, Phase I/II, dose-setting study. AZD9829 will be administered intravenously as monotherapy or in combination in participants with CD123 positive hematological malignancies.
This study is conducted to determine the safety and tolerability of INCB161734 as a single agent or in combination with other anticancer therapies.
This study is a multicenter, 12-month open label extension study, following Phase 1 Study MON-2021-001, with a single dose of monepantel (MPL) once daily (QD) for the treatment of individuals with MND.
This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, double-masked, active comparator-controlled study evaluating the efficacy and safety of faricimab in patients with myopic choroidal neovascularization (CNV). This non-inferiority study will compare 6.0 mg faricimab versus 0.5 mg ranibizumab administered at a pro-re-nata (PRN) dosing regimen after an initial active IVT treatment administration at randomization (Day 1).
The VividWhite Glaucoma Implant (VW-51) is a novel surgical implant designed to treat glaucoma. This study is a 12-month, 65-participant non-comparative multicentre study to assess the safety and effectiveness of the VW-51 implant.
Babies with single ventricle congenital heart disease (SVCHD) are often diagnosed during pregnancy. While prenatal diagnosis has important clinical benefits, it is often stressful and overwhelming for parents, and many express a need for psychological support. HeartGPS is a psychological intervention for parents who receive their baby's diagnosis of SVCHD during pregnancy. It includes 8 sessions with a psychologist, coupled with tailored educational resources, and a personalized care plan. The intervention focuses on fostering parent psychological adjustment and wellbeing, and supporting parents to bond with their baby in ways that feel right for them. Through this study, the investigators will learn if HeartGPS is useful and effective for parents and their babies when it is offered in addition to usual fetal cardiac care. The investigators will examine the effects of the HeartGPS intervention on parental anxiety, depression, and traumatic stress; fetal and infant brain development; parent-infant bonding; and infant neurobehavioral and neurodevelopmental outcomes. The investigators will also explore mechanisms associated with stress biology during pregnancy, infant brain development and neurodevelopmental outcomes, and parent and infant intervention effects.
This open-label, multicenter, rollover study will provide continued treatment for participants deriving benefit from different therapies received in studies sponsored by Daiichi Sankyo, Inc. (DS) or DS/Astra Zeneca (AZ)-sponsored study (eg. DS8201-A-J101, DS8201-A-U201, DS8201-A-U204, DS8201-A-U207, DS8201-A-U303).
