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 randomized phase III trial is studying how well Caphosol rinse works in preventing mucositis in young patients undergoing autologous or donor stem cell transplant. Supersaturated calcium phosphate (Caphosol) rinse may be able to prevent mucositis, or mouth sores, in patients undergoing stem cell transplant.
In this study, the investigator will be approaching pregnant women to undertake 2 years of weekly respiratory and nappy specimen collection from their healthy new born infant. These specimens will be mailed to the Queensland Paediatric Infectious Diseases (Qpid) Laboratory where they will be stored and batched tested for viruses and bacteria. As well as this, parents will keep a simple daily symptom diary for their child, allowing us to match detection of viruses and bacteria to periods when the study child did or did not have symptoms. This will help our understanding of what finding these viruses and bacteria in specimens from children really means.
The purpose of this study is to focus on potential differences in the occurrence of new-onset Diabetes Mellitus (a glucose metabolism disorder) when two different regimens of immunosuppressive treatment are compared.
This is randomized, placebo controlled study to determine safety and efficacy of VGX-3100 DNA Vaccine delivered by Electroporation to adult women with biopsy-proven HPV 16 or 18 associated Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2/3 or 3.
This is a Phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter study comparing two treatment regimens for subjects with multiple myeloma who have received all available approved treatment options and may therefore be considered candidates for palliative care.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether AN2898 and AN2728 ointments are safe and effective treatments for mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis (AD).
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of 48 hours of intravenous (IV) omecamtiv mecarbil compared with placebo on dyspnea in subjects with left ventricular systolic dysfunction hospitalized for acute heart failure. This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with 3 dose cohorts enrolled sequentially in order of ascending dose strength of omecamtiv mecarbil. In each cohort, subjects are randomized 1:1 to omecamtiv mecarbil or placebo.
This study is being done to look at the absolute bioavailability of fluticasone furoate and GW642444 inhalation powder when administered in healthy subjects. Bioavailability is determined by measuring the amount of the dose of inhaled medication that reaches the circulation; the amount of inhaled fluticasone furoate and GW642444 powder will be compared to the medication administered intravenously (where bioavailability is 100%).
This prospective observational study is designed to find out what treatment options new patients with chronic kidney disease learn about from their renal unit. Aims: To determine the proportion of new CKD patients who receive information about treatment options prior to commencing dialysis, pre−emptive transplantation or conservative management. To determine the timing (i.e. patient's stage of disease) when information is given. To find out whether patients have a friend or family member with them when information is given. Research Design and methods: This study is an assessment of CKD education practices. Nephrologists and pre−dialysis coordinators from each renal unit will complete questionnaires about information that was given to each new dialysis, pre−emptive transplant or conservatively managed patient that started treatment during a 3 month period. Study hypothesis: Approximately one third of CKD patients will receive information after starting treatment. There will be a positive association between in−centre haemodialysis and later referral, non−English speaking background, and advancing age. Significance: The results from this national audit will provide Australian nephrologists and renal nurses with evidence about CKD education practices and compliance with clinical practice guidelines. The results may highlight opportunities for improvement in practice.
The specific aims of the study are to test the following hypotheses: - That there is a difference in change in visual acuity resulting from treatment with intravitreal bevacizumab compared with dexamethasone implant in eyes with advanced macular oedema - That there is a difference in degree of resolution of macular oedema resulting from treatment with intravitreal bevacizumab compared with dexamethasone implant in eyes with advanced macular oedema - That both intravitreal bevacizumab and dexamethasone implants have a manageable and acceptable safety profile in eyes with diabetic macular oedema
