There are about 25560 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Germany. 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 aim of the study is to evaluate and compare immune response to a single exercise intervention in cancer patients and healthy age-maged individuals.
A 24-week, patient- and rater-blinded, two-arm, parallel-group controlled, and multi-centre randomized clinical trial (RCT) to establish the benefits of pharmacogenetics-informed pharmacotherapy versus dosing as usual (DAU) in psychiatric patients suffering from mood, anxiety, or psychotic disorders.
Cohort studies show an association between increased intake of insoluble (cereal) fiber and decreased risk for cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes (T2DM), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), cancer, infectious and inflammatory disorders. Intervention studies, specifically addressing non-fermentable carbohydrates instead of their food sources (whole grain, pulses, legumes) are still sparse. Whole grain trials reported beneficial effects, but cannot pinpoint these benefits on fiber, as minerals, vitamins, grain protein and food matrix contribute to the metabolic results. The antidiabetic effectiveness of cereal fiber might be explained by a) an increased secretion of incretins and other glucose-induced gastrointestinal hormones, b) an alteration of the gut microbiome, or c) a fermentation to short-chain fatty acids. Fermentable fibers (most of which are soluble) show these mechanisms, but lack strong diabetes-protective associations in cohort studies. In recent supplementation trials, insoluble, mostly non-fermentable fibers improved insulin resistance, glycemia and inflammation in patients with metabolic syndrome or prediabetes. Between 2022-2024, we want to assess the effectiveness of insoluble, poorly fermentable cereal fiber in a shorter Intervention period in patients with high responsiveness (insulin-naïve overt type 2 diabetes mellitus with insulin resistance and NAFLD), using a fiber drinking supplement. Our triple-blinded RCT compares the metabolic effects and mechanistic outcomes of isocaloric treatments with 15 grams of oat-fiber supplement per day (vs. placebo) in 92 patients, covering an intervention period of 12 weeks.
A study to learn about a new medicine called ARV-471 (PF-07850327) in people who have advanced metastatic breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of two different doses of ianalumab versus placebo in addition to first-line corticosteroids in maintaining platelet count ≥30 G/L in adult participants with primary ITP.
The objective is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the PerQseal vascular closure device system when used to achieve haemostasis of common femoral arteriotomies created by 12 to 22 F sheaths (arteriotomy up to 26 F) in subjects undergoing percutaneous catheter-based interventional procedures.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of two different doses of ianalumab added to eltrombopag to prolong Time to Treatment Failure (TTF) in adults with primary ITP who failed previous first-line treatment with steroids.
A multicenter, international, prospective, observational case series patient cohort with incomplete cervical SCI without instability will be enrolled to obtain information and data that could inform the feasibility of administering a set of additional core and optional outcome assessments in cervical SCI patients to capture the aspects of neurologic impairment. Baseline, intraoperative, and postoperative characteristics, including demographics, injury details, treatment details, neurological assessments, gait and balance assessments and upper extremity assessments, will be recorded for adult patients.
CATCH is an indication-specific diagnostic platform, which drives the implementation of integrative, genomic profiling for metastatic breast cancer into the clinics. The main objective of this approach is to identify biomarkers and drug targets to guide targeted therapeutic interventions. Eligible are all metastatic breast cancer patients (independent of gender), irrespective of molecular subtype. At initial diagnosis of distant metastasis or progress at disease progression, biopsy samples from a prognostic-relevant metastasis are retrieved during standard-of-care procedures for central analyses, together with blood samples. In parallel to all standard-diagnostic measures, genomic and transcriptomic profiling is conducted to infer the underlying biology of the disease and identify patients who might profit from biomarker-guided interventions in clinical trials. Samples not required for standard-of-care clinical procedures or genomic profiling are systematically collected in a dedicated bio-repository to fuel translational scientific companion programs. The continuously growing comprehensive database serves as an integrative resource for systematic, prospective multidimensional data collection (clinical records, biomaterial, genomic data). In summary, the overarching goal is to generate a precision oncology platform to i) identify clinically-actionable biomarkers and drug targets that drive genomics-guided therapies and ii) couple the observational, diagnostic registry platform to an increasing number of independent, biomarker-stratified clinical therapy trials (CATCH-GUIDE).
The aim of the study is to evaluate the technical feasibility and applicability of a surgical assistance system based on image recognition algorithms in a first-in-human pilot study. In addition, this study will provide preliminary data on the oncological outcome of the assistance system.
