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 the persistence of antibodies against hepatitis B at 30, 42, 54 and 66 months after the first dose of the hepatitis B primary vaccination course. Subjects were aged 11 to 15 years at the time of the primary vaccination course. At the time of enrollment in the present long-term follow-up study subjects were aged 13 to 18 years. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
RATIONALE: Studying cognitive function, such as thinking, attention, concentration, and memory, in postmenopausal women receiving hormone therapy for breast cancer may help improve quality of life and the ability to plan treatment for cancer. PURPOSE: This phase III trial is studying cognitive function in postmenopausal women with breast cancer receiving hormone therapy on clinical trial IBCSG-1-98.
This study will test the effectiveness and safety of two doses of solabegron against placebo in reducing the symptoms of overactive bladder.
The purpose of the study is to determine if daily teriparatide reduces back pain more effectively than weekly risedronate in women with osteoporosis who have chronic back pain due to a spinal bone fracture.
This study compares overall survival between patients with acute myeloid leukemia, who are in complete remission following initial treatment with chemotherapy and whose remission is maintained either with a transplantation of stem cells obtained from a sibling or unrelated donor or with standard treatment, which is additional chemotherapy. The study hypothesis is that the group transplanted with stem cells from a donor will have a superior survival compared with patients treated with standard of care.
This study assessed the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 2 doses of oral fingolimod versus interferon β-1a to reduce the frequency of relapses in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis.
Study to evaluate the utility of prospective HLA-B*5701 screening on the incidence of abacavir hypersensitivity (ABC HSR) in 1800 previously ABC-naive adults with HIV-1 from Europe, Australia and other countries as applicable. The study has two (co-primary) objectives: i) to determine if screening for HLA-B*5701 prior to ABC-containing HAART results in a lower incidence of clinically-suspected HSR versus current standard of care (no genetic screening) and ii) to determine if screening for HLA-B*5701 prior to ABC-containing HAART, results in a significantly lower incidence of immunologically-confirmed HSR versus current standard of care (no genetic screening or patch testing). The study consists of up to a 28-day screening period, a randomised observation period (Day 1 through Week 6) and, for subjects experiencing a suspected ABC HSR and a subset of ABC-tolerant subjects, an epicutaneous patch test (EPT) assessment period. Eligible subjects will be randomised to one of two study arms: a Current Standard of Care Arm (no prospective genetic screening: Control) and a Genetic Screening Arm (prospective genetic screening). Subjects identified as HLA-B*5701 positive in the prospective Genetic Screening Arm will not receive ABC and will be excluded from further study. Subjects who experience suspected ABC HSR during the 6-week observation will be withdrawn from ABC-containing product and undergo EPT patch testing 6 weeks later.
A phase II study to allow patients with advanced kidney cancer access to sunitinib malate treatment and to find out the good and bad effects of taking 37.5 mg sunitinib malate in a continuous daily regimen (once per day) for one year.
This study will provide pre-approval drug access to lapatinib, in combination with capecitabine, to patients whose breast cancer had progressed on other therapies
The primary purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of AZD6244 (ARRY-142886) with temozolomide in patients with advanced melanoma
