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 purpose of this study is to examine the effect of diet-induced weight loss on the levels of circulating nutrients and hormones which are involved in feelings of hunger and satiety.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ceasing sitagliptin and switching to exenatide and metformin is non-inferior to adding exenatide to sitagliptin and metformin, in those patients with type 2 diabetes who are experiencing inadequate glycemic control with a combination of sitagliptin and metformin.
The purpose of ENGAGE is to prospectively collect global 'real world' data on the Endurant Stent Graft System from AAA subjects.
Among antidepressant treatments, Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) stands as the most effective in treating acute depression. However, patient concerns with the cognitive side effects of ECT have encouraged the development of new and more focal forms of brain stimulation such as transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS). The investigators' current study of tDCS as a treatment for depression suggests that this technique has antidepressant effects and is safe, painless and well tolerated. However, not all patients may respond to this treatment and the concern of possible relapse in some patients who respond to tDCS has raised interest in finding treatments that may enhance and prolong the antidepressant effects of tDCS. This study will investigate whether D-Cycloserine, a medication shown to lengthen the effects of tDCS on brain activity, can also enhance/prolong the antidepressant effects of tDCS in people suffering from depression.
This 6-arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of RO5024048 (R7128) in combination with the approved doses of Pegasys (180micrograms sc weekly) + Copegus (1000/1200mg po daily) (SOC), versus SOC in treatment-naive patients with chronic hepatitis C, genotype 1 and 4. The first 3 groups will receive 1) RO5024048 500mg bid + Pegasys + Copegus for 12 weeks, followed by SOC for 12 weeks; 2)RO5024048 1000mg bid + Pegasys + Copegus for 8 weeks, followed by SOC for 16 weeks; 3) RO5024048 1000mg bid + Pegasys + Copegus for 12 weeks, followed by SOC for 12 weeks. After 24 weeks, patients in these 3 groups who have achieved rapid viral response will stop treatment, and those who have not will receive SOC for a further 24 weeks. Group 4 will receive RO5024048 1000mg bid + Pegasys + Copegus for 12 weeks, followed by SOC for 36 weeks, and group 5 will receive SOC for 48 weeks. Group 6 provides retreatment on an open-label basis for patients of Group 5 who failed treatment. Patients will receive RO5024048 1000mg bid + Pegasys + Copegus for 24 weeks, followed by SOC for 24 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment is 6-12 months.
The purpose of this study is to provide additional information on safety and tolerability after multiple does of pantoprazole. Only patients who successfully completed the 3001B3-331 study (NCT00362609) or 3001B3-333 study (NCT00259012) are eligible to participate in this study.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of a single dose of IVIb administered over 5-7 minutes.
Objectives: - To find out if the chance of developing a serious illness or of getting AIDS is less if patients start taking HIV medicines at a time when their cluster-of-differentiation-4 (CD4)+ cell count is still fairly high, instead of waiting until the CD4+ count is at the level where there is good evidence for starting medicines. - To learn more about how a strategy of starting HIV medicines early might affect other aspects of care, such as the chances of developing other illnesses or resistance to HIV medicines, the frequency of doctor visits, the cost of medical care, and general health and satisfaction.
The purpose of this study is to asses the safety and efficacy of ALD518 in patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer-Related Fatigue and cachexia (weight-loss).
This was a study to determine whether therapy with pazopanib was effective and safe in women with epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer whose cancer had not progressed on first line chemotherapy.
