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.
AMR101 (icosapent ethyl [ethyl-EPA]) is a highly purified ethyl ester of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) developed by Amarin Pharma Inc. for the treatment of cardiovascular disease in statin-treated patients with hypertriglyceridemia. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether this drug, combined with a statin therapy, will be superior to the statin therapy alone, when used as a prevention in reducing long-term cardiovascular events in high-risk patients with mixed dyslipidemia.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, efficacy and dose response of BMS-945429 in subjects with active Psoriatic Arthritis and an inadequate response to Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and non-biologic Disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs).
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the haemostatic effect of NNC 0129-0000-1003 during surgical procedures in subjects with haemophilia A.
The purpose of this study is to identify at least one dose of BMS-986001 which is safe, well tolerated, and efficacious when combined with Efavirenz (EFV) + Lamivudine (3TC) for treatment-naive Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 (HIV-1) infected subjects
Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) is a disease of the bone marrow characterized by anemia,neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia (low red blood cell, white blood cell, and platelet counts). MDS patients with thrombocytopenia who fail standard therapies require regular platelet transfusions which are expensive and inconvenient, and are a risk for further serious bleeding complications. The new treatment of MDS using azacitidine has shown to increase the survival rate of MDS patients including to improve platelet production over time. However,in the early cycles of treatment with azacitidine,the low platelet counts tend to exacerbate before they provide any clinical benefit. Eltrombopag is a drug designed to activate the thrombopoietin receptor. Eltrombopag has been able to increase platelet counts in healthy Thrombocytopenia Purpura (ITP), a disease where patients destroy their own platelets very rapidly and thus develop thrombocytopenia. Eltrombopag is administered orally and is Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) approved for the treatment of thrombocytopenia in patients with chronic ITP who failed to respond to standard treatment. This study is a single arm pilot study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Eltrombopag in the treatment of low platelet counts in adult subjects with MDS treated using azacitidine This study also incorporates a correlative laboratory component designed to determined the mechanism of action of 5-azacitidine +/- Eltrombopag and to determine a baseline profile which may predict those most responsive. These studies will incorporate gene methylation and expression, and immunoprofiling.
Cognitive accounts of depression and anxiety emphasize the importance of cognitive biases in the maintenance of disorders. One specific bias is the interpretation of ambiguous information. A negative interpretation bias is defined as a systematic tendency to interpret potentially ambiguous information in a negative rather than benign way and this bias has been associated with symptoms of depression. Research has led to the recent development of computerized cognitive bias modification (CBM) techniques to augment such biases and it has been suggested that CBM techniques may be useful as an adjunct to current treatments to enhance maintenance of treatment gains and minimize relapse rates. The fact that CBM procedures lend themselves to being delivered remotely, are cost-effective, and can be self-paced in ways that suit the patient make them an ideal candidate for inclusion in the Internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy (iCBT) programs currently offered through St. Vincent's Hospital and the University of New South Wales. Therefore, the primary aim of the current trial is to evaluate the acceptability and effectiveness of adding CBM procedures to the existing iCBT modules offered through St. Vincent's Hospital and the University of New South Wales. It is expected that iCBT + CBM will result in superior treatment outcomes as indexed by a standardized clinical battery.

This is an open-label, non-randomized, efficacy, safety and PK study comparing octocog alfa and CSL627. The study consists of three parts, a PK period (Part 1), a continuation of dosing safety and efficacy period (Part 2) and a safety, efficacy, and repeat PK section (Part 3) including a surgical sub-study for subjects enrolled in Parts 2 and 3.
Small cell lung cancer is an aggressive neuroendocrine tumour that often presents with extensive (metastatic) disease. Chemotherapy is the mainstay of treatment, with radiotherapy to the primary tumour. It is now part of care to also offer Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation (PCI) in order to prevent spread of the cancer into the brain. Cognitive impairment can result after cranial irradiation. Lithium is thought to be neuroprotective. It is hypothesized that lithium administration with PCI will be safe, tolerable and feasible, and can be studied to prevent or ameliorate the ensuing cognitive impairment.
