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 is a global, multi-centre, open-label, study of GSK2118436 conducted in up to 30 evaluable subjects with resectable, BRAF V600E or V600K mutation-positive metastatic melanoma to the brain. All subjects in this study are required to have accessible extracranial metastases and are agreeable to undergo repetitive biopsies. The first cohort of 15 subjects will receive dabrafenib orally 150mg twice daily (BID) for 7 to 14 days prior to surgery (Cohort A); the second cohort of 15 subjects will receive the combination of dabrafenib 150 mg BID and trametinib 2 mg once daily for 7 to 14 days prior to surgery (Cohort B). The primary purpose of this study is to determine levels and distribution of dabrafenib, its metabolites, and trametinib (Cohort B only) in parenchymal brain metastases, extracranial metastases, and peripheral blood (plasma) within two cohorts of subjects with BRAF V600E/K mutation-positive melanoma that has metastasized to the brain. All subjects will be followed for survival and new anti-cancer therapy for a total of two years or until death or the subject wishes to withdraw from further follow-up.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of seizures and monitor the safety of enzalutamide treatment in participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) known to have risk factor(s) for seizure.
This study will be conducted in approximately 228 subjects with anemia associated with CKD who are not on dialysis. Two groups of subjects will be enrolled into the study: Group 1: recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) naive subjects; Group 2: rhEPO users, who are currently receiving rhEPO. Subjects who are rhEPO naive will be randomized to receive either GSK1278863 once daily (QD) or rhEPO in a 3:1 fashion; subjects who are receiving an rhEPO before enrolling (rhEPO users) will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to GSK1278863 QD or to the control arm. For those randomized to the control arm, the decision around whether the subject requires rhEPO, the selection of the type of rhEPO (if needed) and the choice of rhEPO dose to achieve and maintain Hgb concentrations within the target range should be based on Investigator clinical judgment, with the historical rhEPO dose and the current Hgb value being considered. The study consists of a screening phase of at least 4 weeks, a 24-week treatment phase and a follow-up visit that will occur approximately 4 weeks after completing treatment. It is anticipated that the data generated will enable selection of the starting dose(s) and optimize dose adjustment regimen(s) for Phase 3 clinical trials.
This study is intended to evaluate the dose-response relationship of GSK1278863 over the first 4 weeks of treatment and evaluate the safety and efficacy of GSK1278863 over 24 weeks to maintain hemoglobin (Hgb) level in hemodialysis-dependent (HDD) subjects with anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who are switched from a stable dose of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO). The data generated will enable selection of the starting dose(s) and optimize dose adjustment regimen(s) for Phase 3 clinical trials.
This is a Phase 3, long-term open-label extension study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of tofacitinib in subjects with active PsA who have previously participated in randomized studies of tofacitinib for this indication. This study will include a sub-study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of tofacitinib 5 mg BID administered as monotherapy after methotrexate withdrawal compared to tofacitinib 5 mg BID continued in combination with methotrexate. The sub-study will be available to subjects who have completed at least 24 months of participation in the open-label extension study and meet eligibility criteria for the sub-study.
The Osprey Medical AVERT System is indicated to reduce contrast media (CM) exposure to the kidneys during percutaneous coronary procedures thereby reducing the risk of contrast induced nephropathy (CIN).
This is a global, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study using avatrombopag to treat adults with thrombocytopenia associated with liver disease. The study will evaluate avatrombopag in the treatment of thrombocytopenia associated with liver disease prior to an elective procedure to reduce the need for platelet transfusions or any rescue procedure for bleeding due to procedural and post-procedural bleeding complications. Participants will be enrolled into 2 cohorts according to mean baseline platelet count and, within each baseline platelet count cohort will be further stratified by risk of bleeding associated with the elective procedure (low, moderate, or high) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) status (Yes or No).
This is an open-label non-randomized, multicenter, phase II study of BGJ398 administered to adult patients with histologically confirmed GBM and/or other glioma subtypes with FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 or 3.
This study evaluates the PCSK9 inhibitor, Bococizumab (PF-04950615;RN316), compared to placebo, in reducing the occurrrence of major cardiovascular events, including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and unstable angina requiring urgent revascularization in high risk subjects who are receiving background lipid lowering therapy and have cholesterol laboratory values of LDL-C >/= 100 mg/dL (2.6 mmol/L) or non-HDL-C >/=130 mg/dL (3.4 mmol/L).
This study evaluates the PCSK9 inhibitor, Bococizumab (PF-04950615;RN316), compared to placebo, in reducing the occurrence of major cardiovascular events, including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and unstable angina requiring urgent revascularization, in high risk subjects who are receiving background lipid lowering therapy and have cholesterol laboratory values of LDL-C >/= 70 mg/dL (1.8 mmol/L) or non-HDL-C >/= 100 mg /dL (2.6 mmol/L).
