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.
Investigation of cardiovascular risk 5-15 years after early or late-onset preeclampsia by adenosine stress Magnetic Resonance Imaging and non-invasive methods like retinal vessel analysis, skin measurement of advanced glycation end products, flow-mediated dilation or pulse wave analysis in comparison to women after healthy pregnancies.
There is currently an urgent need for effective and safe treatments of Coronavirus Disease (COVID) - 19 and the cytokine storm that is responsible for the development of patient's Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). As Bronchipret has been proven to be a very safe medicine, it is not expected that it would lead to the development of severe adverse effects in COVID-19 patients. Bronchipret can therefore be recommended as effective and safe supplementary treatments of COVID-19, even more so considering the positive effects shown in vitro. Thus, this randomized study is conducted to assess the effect of Bronchipret on the immune response and recovery in patients with mild COVID-19 by assessing several blood parameters as well as the symptom recovery and improvement in comparison to patients who do not receive Bronchipret. Another aim of this feasibility study is to determine the best possible primary endpoint, i.e. which shows the greatest effect according to Cohen.
Study of MGY825 single agent in adult patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
There is no specific therapy for acute kidney injury. It is presumed that supportive measures improve the care and outcome of patients with acute kidney injury. To investigate whether an implementation of a supportive extended care "bundle" in high-risk patients for persistent acute kidney injury (AKI) can reduce the occurrence of persistent surgical AKI. In order to investigate whether the extended KDIGO bundle can prevent persistent AKI in patients with high chemokine ligand 14 (CCL14) as well as in patients with low CCL14, patients will be randomized with stratification by the CCL-value.
The primary aim of this nationwide, explorative, cross-sectional study in Germany is to characterize the prevalence, severity and quality of musculoskeletal pain in adult patients with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD). The secondary objectives are to evaluate whether muscle pain is associated with muscle function, to assess whether muscle pain is associated with alterations of muscle tissue, and whether vitamin D metabolism and polymorphisms of ACE and ACTN3 genes may contribute to an increased level of perceived musculoskeletal pain. In a second step, exome sequencing of genes associated with musculoskeletal pain will be analyzed. Results of LOPD patients will be compared to patients with neuromuscular disorders with a similar distribution of muscle weakness and/or musculoskeletal pain.
- Research Question: Does convalescent plasma (CCP) collected from donors who have recovered from COVID-19 and who have a very high titre of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies reduce the risk of hospitalisation (for COVID-19) or death in patients with early symptoms of acute COVID-19 who are vulnerable to this disease compared to standard of care? - Study product: Very high antibody titre COVID-19 convalescent plasma collected more than 15 days after end of symptoms in COVID-19 patients who also had received at least one dose of a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. - Methodology: Multicentre, randomised, open-label, adaptive superiority trial: COVID-19 very high neutralizing Ab titre convalescent plasma vs standard care in 2 cohorts of vulnerable patients (cohort 1: elderly (≥ 70 years) and younger with comorbidities, cohort 2: immunosuppressed patients). - Study phase: Phase 3 - Intervention: Two units of high antibody titre COVID-19 convalescent plasma to individuals randomised to the intervention group, 2 units from 2 different donors, preferably transfused on the same day. Plasma provided by convalescent vaccinated donors with a minimum antibody titre of 1:640 against delta variant (B1.617.2) or antibody concentration >=4.000 BAU/ml in the QuantiVac anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG ELISA or >=20.000 U/ml in the Elecsys anti-SARS-CoV-2 CLIA - Randomisation: 1:1 (standard of care + convalescent plasma vs. standard of care) stratified by centre (cohorts 1 and 2)
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of satralizumab compared with placebo based on time from randomization to the first occurrence of an adjudicated MOGAD relapse in the double-blind (DB) treatment period
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of tulisokibart in participants with SSc-ILD.
To assess the safety, tolerability, biomarker, cognitive, and clinical efficacy of investigational products in participants with an Alzheimer's disease-causing mutation by determining if treatment with the study drug improves disease-related biomarkers and slows the rate of progression of cognitive or clinical impairment.
The clinical success of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage procedures (PTBDs) is usually measured by the the decrease of the serum bilirubin value. However, the bilirubin value can be biased by other disease conditions. Furthermore, the time course of the decrease of the bilirubin value after technically successful PTBD is not well known. Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), a liver enzyme which is typically elevated in cholestatic liver diseases, might be a good alternative to bilirubin as an indicator for the clinical success of PTBDs. The aim of this study is to analyse the bilirubin level and the GGT level in patients with technically successful PTBD.
