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.
Evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of eftilagimod alpha with pembrolizumab in non-small cell lung carcinoma and head and neck carcinoma patients.
The purpose of this trial is to measure the following in participants with relapsed and/or refractory B-cell lymphoma who receive epcoritamab, an antibody also known as EPKINLY™ and GEN3013 (DuoBody®-CD3xCD20): - The dose schedule for epcoritamab - The side effects seen with epcoritamab - What the body does with epcoritamab once it is administered - What epcoritamab does to the body once it is administered - How well epcoritamab works against relapsed and/or refractory B-cell lymphoma The trial consists of 3 parts: - a dose-escalation part [Phase 1, first-in-human (FIH)] - an expansion part (Phase 2a) - a dose-optimization part (OPT) (Phase 2a) The trial time for each participant depends on which trial part the participant enters: - For the dose-escalation part, each participant will be in the trial for approximately 1 year, which is made up of 21 days of screening, 6 months of treatment (the total time of treatment may be different for each participant), and 6 months of follow-up (the total time of follow-up may be different for each participant). - For the expansion and dose-OPT parts, each participant will be in the trial for approximately 1.5 years, which is made up of 21 days of screening, 1 year of treatment (the total time of treatment may be different for each participant), and 6 months of follow-up (the total time of follow-up may be different for each participant). Participation in the study will require visits to the sites. During the first month, participants must visit every day or every few days, depending on which trial part the participant enters. After that, participants must visit weekly, every other week, once a month, and once every 2 months, as trial participation ends. All participants will receive active drug, and no participants will be given placebo.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of INP105, which is an investigational drug-device combination product comprised of the drug component OLZ administered by a Precision Olfactory Delivery (POD®) nasal spray device (I231 POD® Device). The proposed indication for INP105 is the treatment of acute agitation associated with schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder.
There are large inter-individual differences in the bleeding pattern of patients with moderate or mild hemophilia. The major determinant of bleeding phenotype is the level of coagulant factor VIII or IX. In hemophilia A, studies addressing the association between factor VIII level and the clinical bleeding pattern yield conflicting results. In hemophilia B such studies have not yet been performed. The primary aim of this project is to analyze the association between factor VIII and factor IX levels and the bleeding phenotype. The secondary aim is to analyze potential differences in phenotype between hemophilia A and B. The project is a multicentre observational cohort study. We will include 500 patients with moderate or mild hemophilia A (FVIII 0.02-0.35 IU/mL) and 500 patients with moderate or mild hemophilia B (FIX 0.02-0.35 IU/mL) who are 12 to 55 years old. The main cohort study consists of clinical data collection, one blood sample and an online questionnaire for patients. Data will be collected on the nature and duration of all bleeding episodes, disease and treatment characteristics, physical activity level and musculoskeletal status. One blood withdrawal will be performed for centralized laboratory assays for FVIII or FIX levels (both one-stage and chromogenic assays) and genetic analysis for the most prevalent prothrombotic mutations. The online questionnaire for patients focuses on bleeds experienced in the past. A subset of 200 patients aged 24 years or older (100 with moderate or mild hemophilia A and 100 with moderate or mild hemophilia B) will be investigated in more detail by longitudinal data collection including analysis of physical joint status, MRI imaging of joints and biomarkers for joint damage. This longitudinal observation will consist of two time points that lie two years apart, allowing us to identify any changes that occur over the observed time period with respect to joint status.
Traditionally, Manuka honey has been used to combat against bacteria and reduce inflammation (the body's way of reacting to infection, irritation or other injury). Due to the inflammatory nature of dry eye, Manuka eye drops show promise as a treatment for dry eye disease. The aim of this research is to compare the effects of two over the counter eye drops that are used to treat dry eye conditions over a one month period.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of faricimab administered at 8-week intervals or as specified in the protocol following treatment initiation, compared with aflibercept once every 8 weeks (Q8W), in participants with diabetic macular edema (DME).
The purpose of the study is to see whether the antibiotic combination of 100mg doxycycline, 500mg azithromycin and 300mg rifabutin is a safe and effective treatment for coronary artery disease which has not responded to 'standard treatment'. Coronary artery disease is the process of plaque build up within the walls of the arteries responsible for supplying the heart with oxygen and nutrients. plaque is usually made up of fatty deposits, minerals and various amounts of tissue and white cells which eventually narrows the artery, reducing blood flow to the heart. The resulting damage and build up of fat leads to inflammation of the arterial wall and eventually the arteries narrow. The researchers involved in this study consider that a pathogen called Chlamydophila pneumoniae, which can live inside cells may cause this inflammation of the arterial wall. The purpose of this study is to see if treatment with this antibiotic combination in patients with CHD is safe and effective in reducing disease severity measured at coronary angiography and improving quality of life. Approximately 60 patients will be involved in this trial. the treatment period is 90 days with a further 90 day follow up period.
REPRISE IV: REpositionable Percutaneous Replacement of Stenotic Aortic Valve through Implantation of LOTUS Edge Valve System in IntermediatE Surgical Risk Subjects
This is a phase II, non-randomised, multicentre study to assess the safety and efficacy of the PD-L1 inhibitor, avelumab, in a previously untreated fit population of high risk stage II, stage III and stage IV classical Hodgkin lymphoma.
Removal of the uterus (hysterectomy) is the most commonly performed major gynaecological procedure in women. Obstetricians and gynaecologist (O&G) surgeons conduct the majority of hysterectomies. Surgical approaches to removal of the uterus include laparoscopic hysterectomy, vaginal hysterectomy with or without laparoscopic assistance and open hysterectomy through an abdominal incision. It is widely accepted that laparoscopic hysterectomy and vaginal hysterectomy are less invasive procedures, cause fewer surgical complications, less postoperative pain, require a shorter hospital stay and are associated with quicker recovery than abdominal hysterectomy. In Australia and despite the evidence, Total Abdominal Hysterectomy (TAH) rates are unreasonably high (~40%) and only 13% of all hysterectomies are done via Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH) in Australia. This study aims to implement and evaluate a training program in TLH for gynaecologists. The potential benefits to the community are: - A reduction in the incidence of overall surgical adverse events in patients receiving a hysterectomy - A reduction in the length of hospital stay for patients requiring a hysterectomy - A reduction in the direct hospital costs for hysterectomy
