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 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multi-center phase III study to evaluate efficacy and safety of regorafenib in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) who have progressed on/after all approved drugs for CRC
To establish and confirm the safety and clinical utility of BTVA applied unilaterally for lung volume reduction in patients with upper lobe predominate heterogeneous severe emphysema.
Study of Plitidepsin in combination with dexamethasone versus dexamethasone alone in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.
This observational multicentric study is planned to assess the tolerability of Rebif New Formulation in an Australian clinical setting by the incidence of injection site reactions (ISRs). The study will allow the comparison of tolerability data with historical data for both Rebif New and classic formulations, and will do so by using the same pre- specified preferred terms of treatment emergent adverse events as done in historical studies. In addition, the study will analyse whether interaction(s) with a nurse impacts tolerability and the impact of Rebif New Formulation on the patient's Quality of Life.
This study aims to identify whether the addition of positive expiratory pressure (PEP) mask therapy to standard medical care improves clinically important outcomes in individuals with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It is hypothesized that those who receive the additional PEP mask therapy will show greater improvements than those who do not.
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is the most common life-threatening genetic condition affecting Australian children. As well as repeated lung infections, children with CF develop insulin deficiency and eventually diabetes. The CF-IDEA trial (Cystic Fibrosis - Insulin Deficiency, Early Action) will determine whether starting insulin treatment before the onset of diabetes (earlier than current practice) will improve the health of children with CF by improving body weight and lung function.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes in contact lens geometry after lens wear
Sunitinib is an anticancer drug, but like most drugs, the effect varies from person to person. This is partly due to a variation in how well each person eradicates the drug from the body. This can lead to toxicity if the drug is eliminated slowly. Just as important is inadvertent underdosing in people who eliminate the drug quickly which may lead to a reduced anti-cancer effect. The investigators group has developed a battery of tests that may measure how an individual clears a drug from their body. The investigators intend to apply these tests to a group of patients taking sunitinib to see whether any test will help predict the level of sunitinib in the body and also the side effects. If a test seems to be promising from this study it may be possible to do a simple test on patients before they receive sunitinib so the best dose is chosen. The tests involve identifying the genes that are involved with drug elimination (CYP3A, ABCB1, ABCG2, OCT1, OATP) as well as directly measuring elimination using marker drugs (midazolam clearance and sestamibi liver clearance).
This randomized, double-blind, active-controlled study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a weekly dose of albiglutide as compared with sitagliptin. Subjects who are renally impaired with a historical diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus and whose glycemia is inadequately controlled on their current regimen of diet and exercise or their antidiabetic therapy of metformin, thiazolidinedione, sulfonylurea, or any combination of these oral antidiabetic medications will be recruited into the study.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether moxonidine is effective in reducing urine albumin levels in patients with diabetic kidney disease.
