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.
To evaluate whether AMG 386 in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin is safe and well tolerated in the first-line treatment of high-risk stage I and stages II-IV epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal and fallopian tube cancers. The hypothesis is that AMG 386 in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel is safe and well tolerated.
This Phase IIb study is designed to assess whether 3 doses of AFQ056 are safe and effective in treating the behavioral symptoms of Fragile X Syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a limited duration of treatment (two weeks of low molecular weight treatment) is a safe and effective treatment for distal deep vein thrombosis of the lower limb.
The primary objective was to demonstrate the effect of teriflunomide, in comparison to placebo, on frequency of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) relapses in patients with relapsing forms of MS who are treated with Interferon-beta (IFN-beta). The secondary objectives were: - Assess the effect of teriflunomide, in comparison to placebo, when added to IFN-beta on: - Disease activity as measured by brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) - Disability progression - Burden of disease and disease progression as measured by brain MRI - Evaluate the safety and tolerability of teriflunomide when added to IFN-beta therapy - Assess the pharmacokinetics of teriflunomide in use in addition to baseline IFN-beta therapy - Assess associations between variations in genes and clinical outcomes (safety and efficacy) - Assess other measures of efficacy of teriflunomide such as fatigue and health-related quality of life - Assess measures of health economics (hospitalization due to relapse, including the length of stay and any admission to intensive care unit)
This first-in-human study aims to establish the maximum tolerated dose of PG545 and to evaluate its safety in subjects with advanced solid tumours. In addition the study will explore whether PG545 exposure results in changes to chemicals produced by the body that are associated with cancer growth and spread.
The purpose of this research study is to assess the long term safety of Dysport® in hemiparetic subjects with lower limb spasticity due to stroke or traumatic brain injury over repeated treatment cycles.
This is a clinical trial investigating the effectiveness and safety of the combination of the study drugs bevacizumab and AMG386 in patients with advanced (metastatic) chemotherapy-naive bowel (colorectal) cancer. Chemotherapy has a significant impact in metastatic bowel cancer in terms of maintenance of quality of life and extension of survival. However, ultimately tumours will develop resistance to these agents and further treatment options are urgently required. Angiogenesis is a process that results in the formation of new blood vessels. Similar to normal tissues, solid tumours require new blood vessels for growth and survival. Hence, drugs targeting angiogenesis may be useful treatment options for patients with bowel cancer. AMG386 and bevacizumab act on 2 different pathways relevant to angiogenesis. There is evidence from laboratory and animal studies to suggest that such a combination could be useful as a cancer treatment. Previous studies in humans have shown that AMG386 and bevacizumab can be combined safely.. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the combination of AMG386 and bevacizumab in patients with advanced bowel cancer. 40 patients from approximately four hospitals in Australia will participate in this trial, with approximately 20 patients being enrolled at Austin Health. All participants will receive the same treatment.
The purpose of this research study is to assess the efficacy of Dysport® compared to placebo in improving muscle tone in hemiparetic subjects with lower limb spasticity due to stroke or traumatic brain injury.
This extension study is designed to assess the safety of GSK Biological's HPV vaccine GSK580299 in female subjects who took part in the primary study NCT00294047 and received the control vaccine in countries for which the licensed GSK HPV vaccine is not indicated for the subject's age group (26 years and older). This study is thus conducted to enable all women who received the control placebo in the primary NCT00294047 study to receive the GSK580299 vaccine.
The effects of stopping long-term (7 years) and short term (2 years) risedronate therapy on BMD (bone mineral density) and BTMs (bone turnover markers) will be summarized.
