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 aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of topical p-menthane-3,8-diol (PMD)-rich Corymbia Citriodora oil (Citriodiol®) in children with impetigo. Citriodiol® is already known to be effective as an insect repellent and is safe in its topical application. The investigators have also found in our laboratory that it is bactericidal against Staphylococcus aureus, the bacteria responsible for causing impetigo. Parents are always searching for a natural alternative to antibiotics (the current gold standard treatment for impetigo), and the investigators believe Citriodiol® could provide this possible alternative.
This is an double-blind, single dose, four-period, crossover study in Japanese healthy male volunteers to assess the pharmacokinetics and safety/tolerability of single doses of GSK1605786A. Approximately 24 subjects will receive three treatments of 250, 500, and 1000mg GSK1605786 under fasted conditions or 500mg after food intake plus placebo in a dose ascending crossover design. Serial pharmacokinetic samples will be collected following each dose and safety assessments will be performed. The pharmacokinetics and dose proportionality of GSK1605786 after single oral doses of GSK1605786 at the dose levels of 250mg, 500mg and 1000 mg under fasted conditions will be assessed. In addition, a comparison will be made between the pharmacokinetics of GSK1605786 under fed and fasted conditions.
DePuy Orthopaedics has issued a voluntary recall of the ASR hip replacement system due to a higher than expected revision rate reported in the England/Wales and Australian national joint registries. There are two types of ASR hip implants used for total hip replacement surgery: - ASR XL Hip System - ASR Hip Resurfacing System Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) in Boston, USA is the study sponsor. MGH is conducting this study with the help of funding from DePuy Orthopaedics. MGH will collect and analyze clinical information from 5,000 subjects around the world. The countries include the United States of America, Australia, South Africa, England, Denmark, Finland and Sweden. MGH will collect and analyze blood test results, X-rays, soft tissue imaging and how well the ASR hips are functioning. MGH will analyze the data annually for 6 years. The purpose of this study is to follow patients who have the ASR hip system for the next 6 years. The findings of this study may help surgeons to make better informed decisions about monitoring and treatment of patients with ASR hip systems.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of GSK Biologicals' vaccine GSK1437173A in the prevention of Herpes zoster (HZ) in autologous haematopoietic cell transplant recipients 18 years of age and older. To this end, the study will evaluate vaccine efficacy (VE) of the GSK1437173A vaccine, administered on a 2-dose schedule, compared to placebo in reducing the risk of developing HZ in this population.
The aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility, safety and accuracy of a telephone follow-up for women previously treatment for endometrial cancer. To achieve this aim, potentially eligible women attending the Queensland Centre for Gynaecological Cancer (QCGC) outpatient clinic for review following previous treatment for endometrial cancer will be recruited by this study. The study aims to recruit all new patients as well as all patients who return to QCGC for their follow-up and who had treatment within the previous 2 years. The proposed project will involve generation of an evidence-based checklist of signs and symptoms of disease recurrence from a thorough literature review. The generated symptom checklist will be pilot tested and the refined symptom checklist will be used to follow study participants over a period of 12 months. During the follow-up period, the basic standard of follow-up after primary treatment for endometrial cancer at the QCGC, Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital (RBWH)will not be altered; however, the study participants will be interview via telephone 2 to 5 days prior to their scheduled review dates. The main outcome measure will be the estimated recurrence rate as derived from the telephone assessment and this will be compared to the clinically detected recurrences as recorded in patients' medical files. It is hypothesized, that the telephone follow-up will identify 90% of all recurrences correctly that are later confirmed during the clinical follow-up. In addition to the main outcome, we will also assess patients' satisfaction with each of the follow-up programs, whether or not lifestyle behaviours were queried and support offered to improve wellbeing.
This study assessed the safety and efficacy of escalating doses INC280 when added to gefitinib in patients with lung cancer that were known to have dysregulation of the c-MET pathway and who had failed after benefiting on a prior treatment with either gefitinib or erlotinib.
This study was a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled Phase III study to determine the efficacy and safety of treatment with buparlisib plus fulvestrant versus fulvestrant plus placebo in postmenopausal women with hormone Receptor-positive (HR-positive), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-negative), locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (MBC) whose disease has progressed on or after aromatase inhibitor (AI) treatment.
This study is a global multicenter randomized factorial double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate (i) efficacy and safety of nitazoxanide 600 mg administered orally twice daily for five days compared to a placebo in the treatment of acute uncomplicated influenza and (ii) efficacy and safety of combination therapy with nitazoxanide 600 mg plus Oseltamivir 75 mg co-administered orally twice daily for five days compared to nitazoxanide monotherapy (600 mg b.i.d. for 5 days) and Oseltamivir monotherapy (75 mg b.i.d. for 5 days) in the treatment of acute uncomplicated influenza.
The primary objective of this study is to collect long term clinical follow-up data on all patients enrolled in the PROGRESS AMS-1.0 study to assess long term safety of the AMS-1.0
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate no excess risk of cardiovascular (CV) composite events exists following long term treatment with TAK-875 compared with placebo.
