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.
Determine how safe and effective lapatinib is when used to treat patients with ErbB2 overexpressing breast cancer that has spread to the brain and is still progressing there even after radiation treatment using WBRT (whole brain radiotherapy) or SRS (stereotactic radiosurgery) to the brain. Lapatinib is an oral drug that will be taken every day. Tests for safety and efficacy will be performed every 4 weeks or 8 weeks (depending on the test) during the course of the study.
The purpose of this 1-year study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new contraceptive vaginal ring (CVR) delivering low doses of Nestorone (NES), a new, nonandrogenic progestin, and ethinyl estradiol (EE), an estrogen used in oral contraceptives. The CVR, which is made of silicone rubber, is designed to be used for 1 year (13 menstrual cycles) before replacement is required.
The primary objective is to show whether rimonabant reduces the risk of a heart attack (MI), stroke, or death from an MI or stroke in patients with abdominal obesity with other cardiovascular (CV) risk factors. The secondary objective is to show whether rimonabant reduces the risk of MI, stroke, CV death, or CV hospitalization in these patients.
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of patupilone compared to pegylated liposomal doxorubicin. Additionally, this study will assess the ability of patupilone to extend the survival time and potential beneficial effects in women who have nonresponsive or recurrent ovarian, primary fallopian, or primary peritoneal cancer.
To compare two commercially available platforms for assessment of HIV drug resistance to determine which provides superior virological results. We hypothesise that one test will be significantly superior to the other.
The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of dabigatran etexilate in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism.
The purpose of this study was to compare the safety and tolerability of the to-be-marketed lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) tablet formulation with the marketed soft gel capsule (SGC) formulation and to compare the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of once daily (QD) and twice daily (BID) dosing of the LPV/r tablet formulation in combination with select nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) in patients who have not previously received antiretroviral treatment.
This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone in subjects with previously untreated metastatic breast cancer.
This is an open-label, continuous daily dosing, two-part safety and efficacy study of SKI-606 (bosutinib) in Philadelphia chromosome positive leukemias (Ph+). Part 1 is a dose-escalation study in chronic phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) subjects to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in this subject population. Part 2 has begun after the completion of Part 1 and after a dose has been established for the compound in chronic phase subjects. Part 2 is a study of the the efficacy of 500mg daily oral SKI-606 (bosutinib) in patients with all phases of Ph+ CML and Ph+ Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL). The protocol will test the hypotheses that oral daily dosing of bosutinib at 500 mg will attain (1) Major Cytogenetic Response (MCyR) in chronic phase CML patients and (2) Overall Hematological Response (OHR) in advanced leukemia patients. Each phase of the disease will be evaluated as a separate cohort.
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter phase III/IV study to compare the efficacy and safety of Zemaira® with placebo in subjects with emphysema due to alpha1-proteinase inhibitor deficiency. The effect of Zemaira® on the progression of emphysema will be assessed by the decline of lung density, measured by computed tomography (CT).
