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 primary objective of this study ist to test the hypothesis that ticagrelor is superior to Aspirin (ASA) fort he prevention of major cardio- and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients undergoing artery bypass operation. The primary efficiacy MACCE-endpoint is the composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, recurent revascularisation, and stroke at twelve month after coronary artery bypass operation.
To characterize the natural history and progression of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) to help inform the design of future studies, to capture biomarkers of safety and disease progression and to provide comparative data for the development of rare exons for which formal controlled trials are not feasible.
Thoracolumbar fractures are the most common spinal fractures with an average annual incidence between 18 and 30 per 100'000 inhabitants. The majority of these fractures are AO type A3 ("burst fractures"). Although patients with burst fractures report a reduced quality of life and chronic pain, there is no clear evidence whether surgical or conservative treatment offer better functional and back-pain related outcomes. The indications for the selection of an ideal treatment for these fractures without neurological deficits remain controversial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether patients with thoracolumbar fractures without neurological deficit being surgically treated show faster recovery and better improvement of function than patients being conservatively treated.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ABH001 in the treatment of patients with epidermolysis bullosa who have wounds that are not healing. It is hypothesized that ABH001 may initiate and continue wound healing in patients with epidermolysis bullosa.
LEE011 is a small molecule inhibitor of CDK4/6. LEE011 has demonstrated in vitro and in vivo activity in both tumor models. The primary purpose of this study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended dose for expansion (RDE) in pediatric patients and to delineate a clinical dose to be used in future studies. This study was also to have assessed the safety, tolerability, PK and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity of LEE011 in patients with MRT or neuroblastoma.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of gevokizumab in reducing the risk of recurrent uveitic disease in subjects with non-infectious uveitis whose disease is currently controlled with systemic treatment.
This is a phase 2 multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, two-arm study for subjects with locally recurrent or metastatic triple negative breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to investigate, whether leech therapy for the treatment of postherpetic pain improves pain and sensory function. Therefore 20 patients with PHN undergoing leech therapy at the investigators outpatient clinic will be included in this observational trial.
The purpose of this observational Post-Market Surveillance Registry is to gather post-market data on the performance of the CE marked Vascutek Anaconda™ Stent Graft System for the repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA). The Study population consists of patients suitable for endovascular repair of AAA. Patients will be followed at 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months post-implantation.
Patients on hemodialysis (HD) exhibit an immensely increased cardiovascular mortality associated with extensive vascular calcification (VC). In the past years the development of VC was discovered to be actively regulated and as being influenced by inhibitors of calcification (e.g. matrix-Gla-protein, fetuin-A). MGP is produced by vascular smooth muscle cells and needs post-translational modification by vitamin K dependent gamma-carboxylation to be fully active. Based on the demonstration of increased PIVKA-II levels, about 97% of all HD patients exhibit insufficient carboxylation activity. We therefore aim in this randomized, controlled study to retard the progress of coronary and aortal calcification as assessed by thoracic multislice-CT by the thrice weekly administration of 5 mg vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) to about 100 HD patients over a period of 18 months.
