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 assessed the efficacy of fingolimod in patients with short duration relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis who had not been previously treated with disease-modifying therapies (DMTs), versus patients with the same disease duration who had previously received first-line DMTs.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the PROMUS Element™ Everolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System for the treatment of patients with up to 2 de novo atherosclerotic coronary artery lesions. The lesions can be located in vessels that are smaller than average-sized.
The objectives of this study are to assess the safety and efficacy of AA4500 in the retreatment of recurrent contractures in joints that were effectively treated with AA4500 in a previous Auxilium-sponsored Phase 3 study.
This post-marketing investigation will evaluate the functional knee performance of Subjects who have undergone primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Data from Subjects who receive one of four contemporary knee configurations from different manufacturers will be pooled to establish a contemporary dataset. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the functional performance as measured by the activities of daily living (ADL) sub-score of the Knee Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score (KOOS) patient-reported outcome (PRO) questionnaire of primary TKA at minimum one year post-operation. This will be carried out for all four implant configurations. The final endpoint is a 2-year evaluation.
This study was to assess the safety and efficacy of sofosbuvir (GS-7977; PSI-7977) in combination with ribavirin (RBV) administered for 12 weeks compared with pegylated interferon (PEG)/RBV administered for 24 weeks in treatment-naive patients with Hepatitis C (HCV) genotype 2 or 3. Efficacy was assessed by the rate of sustained viral response (SVR) 12 weeks after the discontinuation of therapy (SVR12). This was a non-inferiority study, and if non-inferiority was demonstrated, the study was then allowed to test for superiority.
The Canadian population, as is the case in most developed countries, is ageing and becoming increasingly overweight and/or obese. Both ageing and obesity are associated with reduced cognitive performance which can impact adversely on the ability to undertake daily activities and increases the risk of loss of independent living and reduced quality of life. The investigators predict that consumption of ½ cup of pulses per day for 12 weeks will improve cognitive function in older overweight/obese adults and thus decrease the rate of cognitive decline that occurs in this at-risk population.
This study will evaluate the noninferiority of Stribild® (elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (E/C/F/TDF)) single-tablet regimen (STR) relative to regimens consisting of a nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) plus Truvada® (FTC/TDF) in maintaining HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 48 in virologically suppressed, HIV-1 infected adults. This study will also evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of the two regimens through 96 weeks of treatment.
This study is an open-label, randomized, single dose, multi-stage, cross-over study in healthy male subjects of North East Asian ancestry. The aims are to: - evaluate the pharmacokinetic parameters of several formulations of a fixed dose combination (FDC) capsule of dutasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride (0.5 mg/0.2 mg) relative to co-administration of dutasteride 0.5 mg capsules and tamsulosin hydrochloride 0.2 mg tablets in the fasted state in order to define a formulation which is bioequivalent to a 0.2 mg orally disintegrating tamsulosin tablet, (Harnal-D Tablets) - determine the effect of food on the relative bioavailability of tamsulosin in the FDC product which is assessed to be bioequivalent to Harnal-D Tablets in the fasted state - assess the effect of water on the relative bioavailability of tamsulosin in Harnal-D Tablets in the fasted state - assess the safety and tolerability of dosing with the different FDC capsule formulations Subjects will receive single oral doses in at least one treatment period; treatment periods will be separated by a 5-10 day washout period. Blood samples for pharmacokinetic analysis will be taken at regular intervals after dosing. Safety will be assessed by measurement of blood pressure, heart rate and review of adverse events. Each stage of the study will enrol 18 subjects to ensure 16 complete. Subjects may consent to participate in more than one stage.
The study will involve approximately 40 subjects aged 55 or above who have exudative age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD). Patients will be randomized to receive one of two doses of rAAV.sFlt-1 or assigned to the control group.
This is a comparative bioavailability study to compare the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic effects of Fluticasone propionate and Salmeterol delivered in a capsule-based inhaler versus a multi-dose dry powder inhaler in patients with moderate asthma and in patients with moderate to severe Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Co-primary endpoints will be the area under the curve (AUCτ) measured for plasma Fluticasone propionate (pharmacokinetic) and the pharmacodynamic effects of Fluticasone propionate (weighted mean serum cortisol over 0-12h) on the last day of each 10 day study treatment period. Secondary endpoints will include the following pharmacokinetic parameters for both fluticasone propionate and salmeterol: AUClast, AUC(0-t), Cmax, Cmin, tmax, λz, and t1/2 as well as the pharmacodynamic effects of salmeterol (pulse rate, blood pressure, electrocardiogram [ECG], potassium and glucose) and Fluticasone propionate (urine cortisol levels). Safety (adverse events and laboratory abnormalities) will also be assessed as a secondary endpoint. The study is a randomised, double blind, double dummy, four-period cross-over study. Approximately 60 asthma or COPD patients will be randomised. Patients meeting eligibility criteria will receive Fluticasone propionate/salmeterol 250/50mcg bid, from a capsule-based inhaler and from a multi-dose dry powder inhaler for a period of 10 days each in a randomised order. All patients will receive treatment from each device twice. To maintain the double blind, each patient will receive active treatment and placebo at the same time from two separate devices.
