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 investigators do not know which approach to treatment of non-severe high blood pressure in pregnancy is better for women and babies. In the CHIPS Trial, the investigators seek to determine whether 'less tight' control (aiming for a diastolic blood pressure [dBP] of 100 mmHg), compared with 'tight' control (aiming for a diastolic blood pressure [dBP] of 85 mmHg) can decrease the risks of adverse baby outcomes without increasing the risk of problems for the mother.
This study compared treatment groups of patients treated with vosaroxin and cytarabine versus patients treated with placebo and cytarabine.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of LY2189265 in comparison to Insulin Glargine, both in combination with Insulin Lispro (plus or minus Metformin), in participants with Type 2 Diabetes treated with 1 or 2 injections of insulin.
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety of USL255 as adjunctive therapy in patients with refractory partial onset-seizures.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of certolizumab pegol (CZP) treatment in children and adolescents with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease. Secondarily, to assess the long-term efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), and immunogenicity of CZP treatment in children and adolescents with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and determine the optimal dose of a new drug, demcizumab (OMP-21M18), when given in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed, a standard drug treatment regimen for non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Participants must not have received prior chemotherapy for their NSCLC. Demcizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody (a protein made in the laboratory) developed to target cancer stem cells. The way the body handles demcizumab will also be investigated. Up to 50 subjects will be enrolled at up to 8 centers in Australia, New Zealand, and Spain. Up to 28 days (4 weeks) prior to treatment you will undergo testing to determine your eligibility to take part in this study, and then if enrolled in the study you will receive intravenous (in the vein) infusions of the demcizumab, carboplatin, and pemetrexed administered on the same day, every 21 days for 4 cycles, or until it has been shown that your cancer has progressed. If your physician decides to delay treatment with one of the agents due to side effects, the other agents may still be administered as scheduled. After 4 cycles, if you have stable or improved disease, you will continue to receive pemetrexed once every 21 days as maintenance therapy. You will undergo assessments every 8 weeks to determine the status of your disease.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and determine the optimal dose of a new drug, OMP-21M18, when given in combination with FOLFIRI, a standard drug treatment for advanced colorectal cancer. Participants must not have had more than one chemotherapy regimen for their metastatic disease. OMP-21M18 is a humanized monoclonal antibody (a protein made in the laboratory) developed to target cancer stem cells. The way the body handles OMP-21M18 will also be investigated. Up to 32 participants, 21 years or older, at up to 6 centres in Australia and New Zealand, will receive intravenous infusions of OMP-21M18 followed by FOLFIRI every two weeks, until disease progression or limited by drug toxicity. After 8 weeks, participants will undergo assessments to determine their disease status. If there is no evidence of disease progression participants will continue to receive infusions of OMP-21M18 and FOLFIRI every second week, until disease progression.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and determine the optimal dose of a new experimental drug, demcizumab (OMP-21M18), when given in combination with gemcitabine with or without (+/-) Abraxane®. Historically, single agent gemcitabine has been the standard treatment for pancreatic cancer. However, recent data suggests that gemcitabine plus Abraxane® may be superior to gemcitabine alone, thus this combination is emerging as the new standard therapy for pancreatic cancer. However, Abraxane® has not been approved for the treatment of pancreatic cancer at this time. Demcizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody and was developed to target cancer stem cells. This study is sponsored by OncoMed Pharmaceuticals, which is referred to as OncoMed or the Sponsor in this consent form. The study is designed to test the safety of demcizumab at different dose levels when given with gemcitabine +/- Abraxane® and the effects, both good and bad, that it has on participants. Demcizumab may block the growth of cancer stem cells, the remaining tumor cells, and it may also prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow and spread. Although demcizumab has been administered with gemcitabine to cancer patients, it has not been given in combination with gemcitabine and Abraxane®; thus, it is not known if it will provide any benefit to participants and may cause harmful side effects.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of vorinostat and to see how well it works when given together with radiation therapy followed by maintenance therapy with vorinostat in treating younger patients with newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (a brainstem tumor). Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving vorinostat together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence and evolution over-time of co-morbidities in a general dual-chamber pacemaker population (n=2188 patients) through a 2 years follow-up.
