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 determine the safety of ascending doses of HGT-1110 administered by intrathecal (IT) injection for 38 weeks (20 injections) in children with metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD).
This trial is conducted in Oceania. The aim of this trial is to assess whether dose adjustment is required for patients with renal impairment by investigating the pharmacokinetics of liraglutide in subjects with various degrees of renal impairment.
This study will assess the serum uric acid lowering effects and safety of lesinurad compared to placebo in patients who are intolerant or have a contraindication to allopurinol or febuxostat.
The purpose of this early access program is to provide telaprevir to patients with a specific type of hepatitis C viral infection (termed 'genotype 1') who are expected to benefit from telaprevir-based therapy but who reside in countries in which telaprevir is not yet commercially available and who are not eligible for enrollment into a clinical study of telaprevir. The study also aims to collect information on the safety and adverse events with telaprevir treatment in combination with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin, which is typically used to treat patients with hepatitis C. In addition to hepatitis C viral infection, patients in this study will also have a diagnosis of liver fibrosis and compensated liver disease.
The purpose of this study is to assess the Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics (PK/PD), safety, and effectiveness of multiple subcutaneous doses of Beloranib (ZGN-440).
The purpose of this study is to characterize the systemic and ocular safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, exploratory efficacy and pharmacodynamics of 3 months of repeat administration of oral darapladib in diabetic macular edema patients with centre involvement.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of oral veliparib in combination with TMZ or in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel compared to placebo plus carboplatin and paclitaxel in subjects with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation and locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer.
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, with 50% of diabetes-associated deaths being attributed to cardiovascular complications. The characterising features of DM include: the presence of chronic hyperglycaemia, consequent upon decreased secretion or action of insulin; dyslipidaemia; and enhanced levels of oxidative stress and inflammation. Zinc and omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids have been shown to influence each of these outcomes via several mechanisms. This pilot study will examine the effect of nutritional supplements containing zinc and omega 3 on these outcomes in a population with type 2 DM.
Polycystic ovary syndrome affects a striking 9-18% of Australian reproductive aged women and has been associated with a number of metabolic abnormalities. Given the strong correlation between metabolic abnormalities and increased sympathetic activity, we hypothesise that reducing this activity using medication (moxonidine) can help improve the metabolic abnormalities, and therefore improve outcomes in polycystic ovary syndrome.
People with brain metastases from melanoma are offered different treatment options after local treatment of their brain metastases via surgery or stereotactic irradiation. Depending on the treating institution and the clinician involved a patient may or may not be offered whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) after their brain metastases are excised or treated with stereotactic irradiation. This trial seeks to determine if WBRT reduces the spread of brain metastases and lengthens the time to recurrence. The trial also examines the effect of WBRT on quality of life and brain functions such as memory, speech and concentration. Participants will be randomised after local treatment of their brain metastases to either WBRT or observation. 220 people will be recruited from sites in Australia, Norway, the UK, the US and other international sites.
