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 open-label, parallel cohort study will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and antiviral activity of ritonavir-boosted danoprevir in combination with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and ribavirin in treatment-naïve patients, and with RO5024048 added to the combination treatment in prior null responder patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1 or 4 and compensated cirrhosis. All patients will receive danoprevir 100 mg orally twice daily (bid) , ritonavir 100 mg orally bid, Pegasys 180 mcg subcutaneously weekly and ribavirin 1000-1200 mg/kg/day orally. Prior non-responders will receive RO5024048 1000 mg orally bid additionally. Anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks.
The trial is conducted in the United Kingdom (UK), Australia, Canada, Denmark and the Netherlands. The aim is to test whether 3 years treatment with metformin added to titrated insulin therapy (towards target HbA1c 7.0%/53 mmol/mol) reduces atherosclerosis, as measured by progression of carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), in adults with confirmed type 1 diabetes aged 40 years and over at increased risk for cardiovascular disease.
This is a phase 3, randomized, 2-arm, open-label, international trial evaluating alisertib compared with single-agent treatment, as selected by the investigator from the offered options of pralatrexate or gemcitabine or romidepsin, in participants with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). Note: romidepsin was not used as a single-agent comparator outside the United States of America (USA) as supply was not available.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate corneal swelling, limbal redness, and endothelial bleb response to wearing galyfilcon A lenses in asian eyes.
The objective of this study is to gather data regarding the efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness of percutaneous vertebroplasty in the acute fracture group with fractures less than 6 weeks old. The AVAMAX vertebroplasty kits (Care Fusion) will be used for all vertebroplasties. The primary effectiveness analysis will be based on the number of patients whose numeric rating pain score drops from above 7 out of 10 at baseline to below 4 out of 10 at two weeks post-intervention. Our hypothesis is that the vertebroplasty group will have a significantly larger proportion of patients achieving pain reduction than the control group. A secondary analysis will compare the change in mean pain scores and specific activity related pain scores between the two groups at 3 days, 14 days and at 1, 3 and 6 months. Another secondary effectiveness analysis will include the mean change in the back-pain specific limitation in function as quantified by the Roland Scale at these same data collection time points.
Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) MRI will assist in differentiating poor prognosis bone oedema more effectively than traditional T2 weighted MRI in patients with early Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).
The aim of this project is to investigate the effect of Raloxifene 120mg in men with schizophrenia. This trial will adopt a 12 week randomised controlled model. Hypotheses 1: That the men receiving adjunctive selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERM) will have a significantly greater reduction in psychosis symptoms over the course of the study than men receiving adjunctive placebo. Hypotheses 2: That the men receiving adjunctive SERM will have a significantly greater improvement in cognitive function than men receiving adjunctive placebo
The aim of the study is to assess the safety profile of a quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV) and to demonstrate that 3 different industrial lots of QIV induce an equivalent immune response in children/adolescents (9 to 17 years of age) and adults (18 to 60 years of age). Primary Objective: - To describe the safety profile (injection site reactions and systemic events) of each vaccine during the 21 days following vaccination, and serious adverse events (including adverse events of special interest) throughout the study in all adult and child/adolescent participants. Secondary Objectives: - To demonstrate that the 3 different industrial lots of quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV) induce an equivalent immune response at 21 days post-vaccination in both age groups (lot consistency) - To describe the compliance of the immunogenicity of QIV to the European Medicines Agency Note for Guidance (NfG) (CPMP/BWP/214/96) in each age group.
This 2-arm, randomized, phase III study will investigate the efficacy and safety of the addition of rindopepimut (an experimental cancer vaccine that may act to promote anti-cancer effects in patients who have tumors that express the EGFRvIII protein) to the current standard of care (temozolomide) in patients with recently diagnosed glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer. All patients will be administered temozolomide, the standard treatment for glioblastoma. Half the patients will be randomly assigned to receive rindopepimut and half the patients will be randomly assigned to receive a control called keyhole limpet hemocyanin. Patients will be treated in a blinded fashion (neither the patient or the doctor will know which arm of the study the patient is on). Patients will be treated until disease progression or intolerance to therapy and all patients will be followed for survival.
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of the trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy, including pharmacokinetics (the exposure of the trial drug in the body) of NNC 0129-0000-1003 (N8-GP) in subjects with Haemophilia A.
