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 show that Nivolumab will improve progression free survival in subjects with strongly Stage IV or Recurrent PD-L1+ non-small cell lung cancer when compared to chemotherapy
Investigators will test a new approach to a form of heart failure (HF) with no current treatment proven to reduce death rates or hospitalisations. Over a third of HF cases have preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF) often on a background of high blood pressure (BP). These "stiff" hearts pump strongly but fill inefficiently resulting in poor exercise capacity and high death rates. Treatments that help when heart pumping action is poor are of no benefit in HFPEF. Recently a simple catheter procedure removing excess nerve signals to and from the kidneys ("renal denervation"; RDN) has been able to reduce BP in patients with high BP resistant to multi-drug treatment. Through removing excess nervous drive to the kidneys, heart and circulation this treatment has promise in HF. The investigators will compare effects of RDN and standard medical treatment on heart function, exercise capacity and quality of life in 144 patients with HFPEF
Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease is a childhood hip disorder which is common enough to be a significant public health problem (affects 1 in 740 boys between ages 0-14), but uncommon enough to have a sufficient number of patients from a single institution to perform a definitive prospective study comparing the results of current treatments. The present study will establish a database of prospectively identified patients with Legg-Calvé-Perthes (LCP) Disease and collect information regarding their presentation, treatment, and outcomes in the course of receiving currently available treatments. This study seeks to compare the outcomes of current treatments in the management of different age groups (ages 1-6, 6-8, 8-11, >11) of patients with Perthes disease at two- and five-year followup and at skeletal maturity. For each age group, two to three common treatment regimens currently used by practicing pediatric orthopaedic surgeons will be compared. The intervention a patient receives is determined through physician treatment expertise, and is not pre-determined by the study.
The overall aim of the study is to evaluate the performance of Artificial Pancreas or Closed Loop Glucose-Sensing Insulin-Delivery system in comparison to current best available technology represented by Sensor Augmented Pump Therapy (SAPT) in patients with Type 1 Diabetes.
This study is being conducted to measure the relative bioavailability of the original gelatin capsule formulation and a new formulation, immediate release (IR) tablet of Afuresertib (GSK2110183). The study will be composed of Screening, Treatment, and Follow-up Periods. A subject's total time involved in the study will be approximately 9 weeks. The study will enroll approximately 18 healthy volunteers.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the EVARREST™ Fibrin Sealant Patch as an adjunct to hemostasis during cardiovascular surgery.
This is a multi-cohort, open label, Phase II study with Dabrafenib (GSK2118436) and Trametinib (GSK1120212) combination therapy in subject with BRAF mutation-positive melanoma that has metastasized to the brain. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of 4 cohorts. Cohorts will consist of; V600 E, D, K, R mutations, metastases to the brain, symptomatic and asymptomatic, with or without prior local (brain) therapy, with or without prior local (brain) therapy, and range of ECOG scores from 0-2.
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether quizartinib monotherapy prolongs overall survival (OS) compared to salvage chemotherapy in subjects with FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 - Internal Tandem Duplication (FLT3-ITD) positive AML who are refractory to or have relapsed within 6 months, after first-line AML therapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the clinical benefit of Nivolumab, as measured by independent radiologic review committee (IRRC)-assessed objective response rate (ORR) in subjects with FL lymphoma who have failed therapy with both CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Nivolumab is effective in the treatment of DLBCL in patients that have failed or are ineligible for ASCT
