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 is a RCT of transcranial electrical stimulation in depressed patients. Mood, cognitive test performance and biomarkers will be measured during the trial.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether 2RT nanosecond laser therapy slows the progression to advanced age-related macular degeneration.
This clinical trial studies the effects of dexrazoxane hydrochloride on biomarkers associated with cardiomyopathy and heart failure after cancer treatment. Studying samples of blood in the laboratory from patients receiving dexrazoxane hydrochloride may help doctors learn more about the effects of dexrazoxane hydrochloride on cells. It may also help doctors understand how well patients respond to treatment.
Recurrence after endoscopic mucosal resection of laterally spreading lesions (LSL) >= 20mm in size occurs in approximately 20% of cases at surveillance colonoscopy. We aim to evaluate the efficacy of prophylactic adjuvant thermal ablation of the EMR mucosal defect margin in reducing adenoma recurrence following colonic EMR.
Preliminary data following a pilot study from our institution confirms the ability of 99mTc-glucosamine (99mTc-ECDG) to differentiate between active, subclinical and quiescent disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma lung, and vasculitis. We propose to extend these findings and further evaluate this imaging modality for its clinical utility, limitations, and application. An unacceptably high level of morbidity exists amongst patients suffering from rheumatic disease. This is often the result of mild disease being missed or misdiagnosed, and therapy inordinately delayed or inappropriate. The currently used therapeutic agents themselves have associated side-effects adding to unfavourable clinical outcomes. There is therefore a need for a superior, less expensive and more easily accessible imaging modality to assess the degree of inflammation to guide the clinician. Glucosamine is absorbed and metabolised in a manner not too dissimilar to that of glucose, and it can be readily labelled to form 99mTc-ECDG. Scans can be acquired within 3 hours of intravenous administration of this agent, accurately depicting sites of active inflammation/disease. HYPOTHESIS Glucose is a vital cellular substrate that accumulates at inflamed tissues because of the greater metabolic needs of the cells during active disease. Glucosamine, being an analogue of glucose, is metabolised more quickly in inflamed than non-inflamed tissue and thus 99mTc-ECDG scintigraphy like 18-Fluorodeoxyglucose (18FDG-PET) scintigraphy allows for detection of active inflammation. Unlike current bone scans this agent has the sensitivity to detect subclinical inflammatory disease that would in turn provide essential information to ensure accurate diagnosis and treatment.
Interventional diagnostic, international, multicenter and non-comparative study of EGFR mutation status in aNSCLC patients (locally advanced and/or metastatic disease) with adenocarcinoma and non-adenocarcinoma histologies. It will be conducted in Asia Pacific and Russia and will assess the current status of EGFR mutation testing, and the concordance of EGFR mutation status derived from tumour samples and blood based circulating free DNA.
This study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of etelcalcetide (AMG 416) compared with placebo in the treatment of SHPT in CKD patients receiving hemodialysis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate 9 month angiographic and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) data for the SYNERGY Everolimus-Eluting Platinum Chromium Coronary Stent System (SYNERGY Stent System) in the treatment of subjects with atherosclerotic lesion(s) ≤34 mm in length (by visual estimate) in native coronary arteries ≥2.25 mm to ≤4.0 mm in diameter (by visual estimate).
This is a prospective, multicenter single arm, nonrandomized study that will include 150 patients at a maximum of 20 investigational sites. It is estimated that it may take 13 months to complete enrollment. Follow-up will continue through 24 months post-implant or one month post-retrieval, whichever occurs first. It is required that filters be retrieved from at least 50 patients and the filter is permanent in at least 50 patients.
To assess the single- and multiple-dose pharmacokinetic (PK), safety and tolerability of AVP-786 in healthy volunteers.
