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.
This study's purpose is to measure the treatment response from efgartigimod PH20 SC compared with placebo in participants with Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy (IIM). Participants with the IIM subtypes of dermatomyositis (DM), immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM), or certain other subtypes of polymyositis (PM; including antisynthetase syndrome [ASyS]) will be included in the study. Treatment response will be measured by Total improvement score (TIS). Additional information can be found on https://myositis-study.com/.
TIRCON-reg aims to - continue the provision of a global registry and natural history study for NBIA disorders - harmonize and cover existing national and single site registries - enable participation of countries and single sites that so far have no access to an NBIA registry - join forces in order to recruit sufficient numbers of patients - define the natural history of NBIA disorders - define the most appropriate outcome measures - inform the design and facilitate the conduction of clinical trials
The "Long-term Outcome and Predictors for Recurrence after Medical and Interventional Treatment of Arrhythmias at the University Heart Center Hamburg" (TRUST) study is an investor-initiated, single-center, prospective clinical cohort study including patients treated with cardiac arrhythmias or at high risk for cardiac arrhythmias. The design enables prospective, low-threshold, near complete inclusion of patients with arrhythmias treated at the UHZ. Collection of routine follow-up data, detailed procedural information and systematic biobanking will enable precise and robust phenotyping.
Life-threatening physical illness may powerfully re-activate existential conflict. There is little evidence to date on the effectiveness of relationship-focused therapies in this patient group.The aim of this study is to pilot a psychodynamic treatment for patients with advanced cancer and high psychological distress.
The adaptive immune response plays an important role in myocardial healing and remodeling after acute myocardial infarction in patients. Therefore, the involved lymphocytes represent a novel target for therapeutic interventions. However, there are no established blood-derived biomarkers to predict the quantity and quality of the adaptive immune response to cardiac injury. Multimodal imaging of the heart and immunologic organs might provide such information. Recent retrospective analysis of patients after MI revealed enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes associated with increased CXCR4 radiotracer accumulation, thereby indicating that CXCR4 PET-based lymph node imaging provides a non-invasive quantitative readout of the local adaptive immune response. These considerations are further fuelled by the fact that, within lymph nodes, CXCR4 is expressed almost exclusively on lymphocytes, whereas various other cell types express CXCR4 within the myocardium. This leads to the hypothesis that the size of mediastinal lymph nodes and their respective CXCR4 PET signals correlate with the adaptive immune response to cardiac injury and might provide predictive information for functional cardiac decline during follow-up. This prospective clinical study will use multimodal imaging to monitor chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) expression in the lymph nodes, myocardium, spleen, and bone marrow after acute MI. The combination of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), echocardiography, and positron emission tomography (PET) along with blood collection for immunophenotyping will allow to determine i) if the size of mediastinal lymph nodes and their respective PET-derived CXCR4 signals at baseline correlate with the adaptive immune response to acute cardiac injury; and ii) if they predict cardiac adverse remodelling during longitudinal follow-up.
Various studies have shown that a more positive outcome expectation can have an influence on the actual treatment outcome of outpatient psychotherapeutic treatments. Therefore, the aim of this online study is to investigate whether [1] the patients' outcome expectation of outpatient psychotherapy can be optimized by a brief nonguided online intervention and whether [2] this intervention can influence important factors of psychotherapy, such as active cooperation, the therapeutic relationship, motivation, and regular attendance to therapy. To examine these questions, patients who are waiting for outpatient therapy will be randomized into two groups (control vs. intervention group) after baseline assessment. The intervention group will participate in a brief therapy preparation (30 minutes) that focuses on optimizing outcome expectations. Both groups will fill out questionnaires again on the following day, during the diagnostic phase at the beginning of therapy and six months later (or at the end of therapy in case therapy ends before the 6-month-follow-up). Furthermore, therapists will also fill out questionnaires during the diagnostic phase at the beginning of therapy and six months later (or at the end of therapy in case therapy ends before the 6-month-follow-up).
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of mezigdomide (CC-92480), bortezomib and dexamethasone (MeziVd) versus pomalidomide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (PVd) in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who received between 1 to 3 prior lines of therapy and who have had prior lenalidomide exposure.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of rimegepant for migraine prophylaxis in adults with a history of inadequate response to oral preventive medications
To evaluate the efficacy of batoclimab 680 milligrams (mg) subcutaneous (SC) once a week (QW) for 12 weeks followed by 340 mg SC QW for 12 weeks versus placebo on proptosis responder rate at Week 24.
The goal of CICERO is to investigate the clinical outcome with a particular focus on prospective data on safety using acalabrutinib (+/- obinutuzumab) in CLL patients receiving co-medication with DOACs (edoxaban, rivaroxaban, dabigatran, apixaban) irrespective of treatment line.
