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.
A global, multi-center, Disease Monitoring Study (DMS) in participants with Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia Type 1 (ADH1) or Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia Type 2 (ADH2) designed to characterize ADH1 and ADH2 disease presentation and progression through retrospective (past) and longitudinal prospective (over time into the future) data collection.
Regular exercise improves performance and reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. Endurance and strength training are therefore forms of therapy with a high level of evidence in the prevention and rehabilitation of cardiovascular diseases. In this context, Hiking has a special role, as endurance exercise not only has a cardio-preventive effect, but also other health-promoting effects can be achieved through exercise in nature. However, intense physical activity can also trigger cardiovascular events, especially in poorly trained people. Hiking shows a particularly high rate of cardiovascular events including death. In addition to the incorrect assessment of the cardiovascular risk profile and physical performance, weather conditions (temperature, wind, precipitation) are often not included in the planning, which in combination further increases the risk of accidents. Hikers are rarely aware of the increased risk and prevent it through preventive medical examinations. Heart health can be assessed through a stress test or ergometry and at the same time endurance performance can be determined in the laboratory and training recommendations can be given based on the results. In order to use hiking specifically to prevent cardiovascular diseases and to reduce the risk of hiking accidents, this study sets the following goals: 1. Development, validation and dissemination of a standardized 1km cardio trekking test trail to record the individual physical endurance performance (= cardio profile), with the aim of personal categorization / determination of the stress intensities when walking and hiking on medium-sized hiking trails and alpine pastures . 2. Scientific conception and mapping of individual cardio profile standard routes through application-based data evaluation (digital cardio profile app) of the cardio trekking test trail for hiking tours in the partner regions Werfenweng and Aschau im Chiemgau. The implementation of these goals should not replace the medical preventive examination, but serve as an additional prevention method.
Recent data suggest that the cannabinoid-system is involved in stress regulation and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Low endocannabinoid signaling has been found in PTSD patients and might even present a precondition to develop PTSD after trauma. The aim of the current project is to investigate the impact of an activation of the cannabinoid system with an exogenous cannabinoid (dronabinol, i.e., delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) on fear conditioning.
The current study seeks to test differences between a single-session large-group format of standard exposure, enhanced exposure, and a control condition in treating anxiety sensitivity. It is hypothesized that 1) participants assigned to either exposure condition will evidence greater reductions in anxiety sensitivity from pre-treatment to posttreatment relative to those in the control condition; 2) participants assigned to the enhanced exposure condition will evidence greater reductions in anxiety sensitivity from pre-treatment to posttreatment relative to those in the standard exposure condition. The investigators will test putative moderators and mechanisms of action. Prior to initiating the study for purposes of data analyses, the investigators will pilot study procedures during Spring 2020.
The purpose of this study is to collect data for Dysport® SMART BoNT-A therapy usage in an office-based setting in post-stroke participants with chronic (> 6 months) focal Upper Limb Spasticity who have been under stable oral antispastics treatment or patients with no current anti-spasticity treatment.
Multinational, prospective, proof of concept phase II, double-blinded, sham-controlled, randomized clinical trial (RCT) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Remote Ischaemic PreConditioning (RIPC) in Lymphoma patients receiving anthracyclines.
This is a parallel arm, Phase 3, double-blind, double-dummy, active-comparator, 2 arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daily oral venglustat versus intravenous Cerezyme infusions every two weeks for improvement or stabilization of the neurological manifestations and maintenance of systemic disease stability in participants aged ≥12 and <18 years and adult patients with Gaucher disease Type 3 (GD3) who have been treated with Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT) for at least 3 years.
This is a Phase III, randomised, double-blind, multicentre, international study assessing the efficacy and safety of durvalumab (MEDI4736) in combination with oleclumab (MEDI9447) or durvalumab (MEDI4736) with monalizumab (IPH2201) in adults with locally advanced (Stage III), unresectable NSCLC, who have not progressed following platinum-based cCRT.
This is a randomised controlled study of patients with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD). Patients will be trained according to the 10 rules of a healthy nutrition according to the German Association for Nutrition (DGE). One arm will undergo Time-Restricted Feeding (TRF) for 12 weeks. The control arm is not subject to any time restrictions concerning eating. It will be investigated whether TRF improves insulin sensitivity, impacts on metabolic inflammation and reduces liver steatosis.
OPTIMUM is a study designed to compare the ability of ultra-high resolution transrectal micro-ultrasound (microUS) and multiparametric MRI (mpMRI)/US fusion to guide prostate biopsy.
