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 purpose of this study is to determine if treatment is effective in preventing fractures in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis.
A prospective, international, multi-center, randomized controlled trial comparing preservation of donor lungs using OCS-Lung perfusion device (Treatment Group) to cold flush and storage (Control Group).
The investigators hypothesize that it is safe and effective to treat patients with choroidal neovascularisation (abnormal blood vessels growing under the retina) secondary to causes other than age related macular degeneration (AMD) and pigment epithelial detachments (blisters of fluid under the retina) secondary to AMD with ranibizumab (Lucentis). These groups of patients have to date been excluded from the multicentre trials demonstrating significant benefit of Ranibizumab in the treatment of AMD.
This randomized, open-label, multicenter study will evaluate the safety , efficacy and tolerability of the combination treatment RO5466731, RO5190591, ritonavir and Copegus (ribavirin) with or without RO5024048 in patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1. In Part 1, treatment-naïve patients will be randomized to receive treatment with RO5466731, RO5190591 plus ritonavir, and Copegus, with or without RO5024048. In Part 2, further treatment-naïve patients will receive a successful regimen from Part 1, or a reduced intensity regimen, and patients who have previously experienced null response to interferon-based treatment will be added to the study.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the Lotus™ Valve System for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in symptomatic subjects with severe calcific aortic stenosis who are considered high risk for surgical valve replacement.
This study will evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Engerix™-B (hepatitis B vaccine) when administered as a primary vaccination course at 0, 1 and 6 months in adults with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of TRx0237 in the treatment of patients with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD).
Haemophilia is a disorder, usually genetic, affecting mostly male individuals, in which one of the proteins needed to form blood clots (FVIII) is missing or not present in sufficient levels. In a person with haemophilia, the clotting process is much slower and the person experiences bleeding episodes that can result in serious problems and potential disability. The current haemophilia standard of care is to maintain FVIII activity level above 1%. Sometimes, patients can develop antibodies (so called "inhibitors") against FVIII and it is no longer effective at controlling bleeds. Bleeds in these patients are currently treated using other proteins involved in the clotting process. The purpose of this study is to investigate how effectively BAY86-6150 may stop acute bleeds in "inhibitor" patients. This study consists of two parts, A and B. The purpose of part A is to find the most effective yet tolerable out of four doses of BAY86-6150 with regard to efficacy and safety (dose-finding part). Part A is expected to last 9 - 29 months. The purpose of part B is to confirm efficacy and safety of the dose found in part A in all participating patients (confirmatory part). Part B is expected to last 12-32 months. Approximately 60 male subjects 12 to 62 years-of-age with moderate or severe haemophilia A or B, with inhibitors to FVIII or FIX, who have had 4 or more bleeding episodes in the last 6 months, will participate in this study. Patient's bleeds will be treated with BAY86-6150 and with a rescue medication if no response is made to BAY86-6150. Patients will attend the treatment centre at regular intervals and be required to keep an electronic diary.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sofosbuvir (SOF; GS-7977) in combination with ribavirin (RBV) with or without pegylated interferon (Peg-IFN) in adults with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who participated in a prior Gilead HCV study and have not achieved sustained virologic response (SVR).
The study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fingolimod in the treatment of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy compared with placebo.
