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 key objective of the study is to compare the effects of soft tissue augmentation using a volume stable collagen matrix or autogenous connective tissue graft or no soft tissue augmentation in addition to bone grafting/implantoplasty in patients who undergo surgical therapy of peri-implantitis with respect to clinical resolution of the infection.
This is a FIH, phase I/II, open label, multi-center study of DYP688 as a single agent. The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumor activity of DYP688 as a single agent in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma (MUM) and other melanomas harboring GNAQ/11 mutations.
Recently chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, a new class of chemo therapy, has gained regulatory approval for the treatment of diseases such as B-cell lymphoma. Known side effects include cytokine release syndrome, which has been described to lead to myocarditis, but larger studies exploring this relationship are currently lacking. In this prospective study, the investigators aim to explore the potential effects of CAR T-cell therapy using cardiac MRI on the heart.
Mild traumatic brain injury (TBI), defined by a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 13 to 15, is the cause of many consultations in paediatric emergency departments (1), even though it is a rare cause of acute complication: approximately 10% of children present with intracranial lesions (ICL) on the CT scan and less than 1% require neurosurgical intervention (2). Although ICLs remain a serious complication requiring rapid diagnosis, brain CT scans, the gold standard diagnostic test, cannot be performed routinely because many children would be unnecessarily exposed to ionising radiation associated with an increased risk of cancer (3). In recent years, several clinical decision rules for the management of mTBI have therefore been developed with the aim of identifying children at high or very low risk of ICL in order to better target CT scan indications. Despite this, the rate of CT scans performed has remained high, up to 35%, and has not decreased with the application of these clinical decision rules (4). Furthermore, even though the majority of children and adolescents recover quickly after mTBI, nearly 30% will present symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, asthenia, memory, concentration or sleep disorders persisting beyond one month with a possible impact on their quality of life (5). Thus, there is a need to develop new strategies to (i) limit the use of CT scans while minimising the risk of late diagnosis of ICL, (ii) identify children with a higher risk of adverse outcome and/or post-concussive symptoms. One of the most promising strategies is the use of brain-based blood biomarkers. This study therefore aims to provide new knowledge on two of them, GFAP and UCH-L1 (6,7), in particular by using an automated test combining them (the VIDAS® TBI test developed by bioMérieux) in order to improve the management of CT in the paediatric population at the diagnostic and prognostic levels.
Thirty-seven patients diagnosed with femoral fracture to be treated with a compatible plate will be enrolled for this multicenter prospective interventional study. The Fracture Monitor T1 will be attached to the locking plate during osteosynthesis. Prior to discharge, it will be connected to an app installed either on the patients' smartphone or on the smartphone provided by the sponsor. The device will continuously collect and process data, which can automatically be downloaded via Bluetooth through the smartphone app and transferred in encrypted form to a dedicated cloud server. The smartphones will be equipped with a basic app version with rudimentary user interface that has no data visualization function. During the rehabilitation phase, data collected by the device will not be accessible to the surgeon nor the patient to ensure that no therapeutic decision will be made based on the acquired data. Every patient is treated as per standard of care. The primary objective of the study is to collect safety information of the Fracture Monitor T1. The secondary objectives are to collect information on device performance, device handling, and usability. All adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs (SAEs) will be recorded during the study. These will be reviewed and evaluated for their potential relationship to the device. All patients will be followed up for 6 months after the surgery according to the local standard of care. Given that the removal of the Fracture Monitor T1 may occur beyond 6 months, a safety follow-up will take place at the time point when the Fracture Monitor T1 is removed as per the instructions for use if it has not been removed within the 6 months. The results will be compiled into a clinical evaluation report to be submitted as part of the technical documentation for the conformity assessment procedure.
This study is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, single-arm study to evaluate the performance, safety, and efficacy of the GORE® VIAFORT Vascular Stent for treatment of symptomatic inferior vena cava obstruction with or without combined iliofemoral obstruction in adult patients.
Follicular Lymphoma (FL) is the second most common B-cell cancer and the most common type of cancer of lymphocytes. Unfortunately, this disease is incurable with conventional treatment and the disease recurs in almost all patients. This study will assess how safe and effective epcoritamab is in combination with lenalidomide and rituximab (R2) in treating adult participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) FL. Adverse events and change in disease condition will be assessed. Epcoritamab is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of FL. Study doctors put the participants in 1 of 3 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. Enrollment to one of the groups is closed. Around 500 adult participants with R/R FL will be enrolled in approximately 300 sites across the world. Participants will receive R2 (375 mg/m^2 intravenous infusion of rituximab up to 5 cycles and oral capsules of 20 mg lenalidomide for up to 12 cycles) alone or in combination with subcutaneous injections of epcoritamab for up to 12 cycles (each cycle is 28 days). There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
Pre-market clinical evaluation of the MOTIV Sirolimus-Eluting Bioresorbable Scaffold for the planned treatment of infrapopliteal lesions.
This trial is an extension of the antecedent trial ARGX-117-2002. It is a multicenter trial that has been designed to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability, efficacy, immunogenicity, Pharmacokinetics (PK), and Pharmacodynamics (PD) of ARGX-117 Intravenously (IV) in adults with Multifocal Motor Neuropathy (MMN). The trial will include a double-blinded rollover treatment period (DTP), an open-label treatment period (OTP), and a safety follow-up period.
Incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD) is an inflammation of the skin caused by prolonged direct contact of the skin with urine and/or stool. Elderly and care-dependent people are often affected by this type of inflammation. Gentle skin cleansing and the use of skin protection products are recommended. Available skin protection products can be categorized into film-forming or lipophilic skin protectants depending on the ingredients and overall composition. There is no evidence about the superiority of one product compared to another regarding skin protection. The overall aim of this study is to compare the effects of two skin protection products compared to an untreated control group. An exploratory trial in elderly nursing home residents and geriatric patients will be conducted.
