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 Sponsor wishes to develop brivaracetam as an anti-epileptic treatment in subjects 16 years and older with epilepsy. This study permits continued access to treatment for subjects who participated in a previous epilepsy study. The study will explore the long-term safety and efficacy of brivaracetam.
The primary goal of this study is to determine the rate of confirmed best cumulative complete molecular response within the first year of study therapy with imatinib or nilotinib. The study will also explore the impact and significance of the achieved CMR on patient outcomes (PFS, EFS and OS), characterize the kinetics of CMR achieved in both treatment arms and after the cross-over.
Children and adolescents with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) who are not tolerating or not responding well to stimulant therapy will be included in this study. Two different strategies for transition from Stimulant to Atomoxetine will be used: Slow (10 weeks) and fast (2 weeks). Changes in ADHD symptoms and tolerability of medication will be compared between the two different switching approaches.
This single center, multiple ascending dose study will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of RO4905417 at different doses in healthy volunteers and patients with peripheral arterial disease. Three groups of 10 healthy volunteers will receive RO4905417 (either 3mg/kg, 7mg/kg or 20mg/kg) or placebo iv every 28 days for a total of 3 infusions. In addition, two groups of 6 PAD patients will receive RO4905417 (either 3mg/kg, 7mg/kg) or placebo and 1 group of 20 PAD patients will receive 20mg/kg RO4905417 or placebo iv every 28 days for a total of three infusions. The study will have an adaptive design with ongoing assessment of safety and tolerability prior to initiation of the next dose. All subjects will receive 3 doses of RO4905417 or matching placebo at 28 day intervals. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of alb-interferon in adults with genotype 2 or 3 chronic hepatitis
To demonstrate that ImpediMed L-Dex U400 can be used to assess unilateral Lymphoedema of the leg using the same principles for arms.
The primary purpose of the GAS study is to determine whether different types of anesthesia (Regional versus General) given to 720 infants undergoing inguinal hernia repair results in equivalent neurodevelopmental outcomes. The study also aims to describe the incidence of apnea in the post-operative period after both regional and general anesthesia for inguinal hernia repair in infants. This study is important as it will provide the greatest evidence for safety or toxicity of general anesthesia for human infants.
This 3-arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of taspoglutide compared to insulin glargine in patients with insulin-naive type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with metformin and sulphonylurea combination therapy. Patients will be randomized to receive taspoglutide (10 mg once weekly, or 10mg once weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg once weekly) or insulin glargine (starting dose 10 IU/day) in a ratio of 1:1:1 in addition to continued prestudy metformin treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size if 500+ individuals.
This 4 arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of taspoglutide compared to sitagliptin and placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with metformin. Patients will be randomized to receive taspoglutide (10mg once weekly or 10mg once weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg once weekly), sitagliptin 100mg once daily or placebo, in a ratio of 2:2:2:1, in addition to their continued prestudy metformin treatment. After 24 weeks of treatment, patients on active treatment will continue on the same treatment and patients on placebo will be switched to taspoglutide 10mg once weekly or taspoglutide 20mg once weekly (after 4 weeks of taspoglutide 10mg once weekly). The anticipated time on study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
