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 study will explore the correlation of biomarkers with response rate, and the overall efficacy and safety, of Avastin in combination with carboplatin-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced or recurrent non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. Patients will be randomized to one of 2 groups, to receive either Avastin 7.5mg/kg iv on day 1 of each 3 week cycle, or Avastin 15mg/kg iv on day 1 of each 3 week cycle; all patients will also receive treatment with carboplatin and either gemcitabine or paclitaxel for a maximum of 6 cycles. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
This Phase IIb study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of 0.005%, 0.01% and 0.015% PEP005 Topical Gel when applied to an area of skin, containing 4-8 AK lesions on the face or scalp.
This study will evaluate the relative efficacy and safety of prasugrel and clopidogrel in a medically managed Unstable Angina/Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (UA/NSTEMI) acute coronary syndrome (ACS) population (that is, patients who are not managed with acute coronary revascularization).
ALSYMPCA (ALpharadin in SYMPtomatic Prostate CAncer) is an international Phase III clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Radium-223 dichloride in patients with hormone refractory prostate cancer and skeletal metastases.
This study will evaluate, versus a placebo, the safety of Herpes simplex candidate vaccine with adjuvant in initially HSV seropositive or seronegative subjects who have no genital herpes disease.
Gastric reflux into the oesophagus may further lung damage in respiratory disease. The proportion of adults with chronic lung disease and gastric reflux is unknown. Adults with this disease regularly complete physiotherapy but the contribution of physiotherapy to reflux is unknown. This study will measure gastric reflux in adults with chronic lung disease, using 24 hour acid monitoring. It is anticipated that approximately 50% of adults with chronic lung disease will have gastric reflux. After monitoring, the number of gastric reflux episodes will be calculated. The results will identify the extent of the gastric reflux problem in these patients and will enable appropriate medical treatment and modifications to physiotherapy, which may improve lung function and quality of life.
The primary objective was to compare the efficacy of once daily [q.d.] subcutaneous [s.c.] injections of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) with q.d. s.c. injections of enoxaparin for the prevention of Venous Thromboembolic Events [VTE] in patients undergoing elective total hip replacement surgery. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the safety of AVE5026 in patients undergoing elective total hip replacement surgery, and to document AVE5026 exposure in this population.
This study was conducted to evaluate the lot-to-lot consistency of three lots of HBV-MPL vaccine and to compare their safety and immunogenicity with that of Engerix™-B.
The primary objective was to compare the efficacy of once daily subcutaneous injections of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) with placebo in the prevention of venous thromboembolism [VTE] in cancer patients at high risk for VTE and who were undergoing chemotherapy. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the safety of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026), to document Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) exposures, to try identifying a metagene predictor of VTE and to assess the survival status at one year in this population.
To evaluate efficacy and safety of sorafenib versus placebo in the adjuvant treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) after potentially curative treatment (surgical resection or local ablation).
