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 VENEK trial is a randomized, prospective trial to compare economic parameters, quality of life and wound healing after endoscopic vein harvesting versus open vein harvesting.
The purpose of this study is to monitor the amino acid uptake of brain tumors, before and during radiotherapy, with positron emission tomography.
In this study we want to examine the effect of a small amount of local anesthetic or saline solution on nerve conduction using a peripheral nerve stimulator.
Metastatic bone disease is an important prognostic factor for survival which will in median be close to two years after first diagnosis of osseous metastases. This open-label study will investigate the safety and efficacy of zoledronic acid in patients with breast cancer and minimal residual disease in the bone marrow.
Multiple myeloma is a disease of B-lymphocytes producing malignant plasma cells. Malignant plasma cells induce osteolytic lesions, which is characteristic for progression of multiple myeloma. It is the aim of this study to investigate whether zoledronic acid has an influence on the progression of multiple myeloma.
Phase IV trial to investigate the effect of the combination of Letrozole with trastuzumab in metastatic breast cancer patients
The Medtronic InSync III Marquis Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillator (CRT-D)-System (implantable cardioverter-defibrillator with biventricular stimulation for cardiac resynchronization) is equipped with the "Conducted-Atrial Fibrillation (AF)-Response-Algorithm (CAFR)". This algorithm is designed to maximize biventricular stimulation and thus the amount of cardiac resynchronization when atrial fibrillation occurs. The goal of the study is the evaluation of the effect of the CAFR in CRT-patients suffering from atrial fibrillation by quantification of the increase of biventricular pacing during atrial fibrillation caused by CAFR as well as the influence of the CAFR on the ventricular heart rate.
To show whether addition of thrombolytic treatment by a single bolus injection of tenecteplase prior to early standard PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) will improve the clinical outcome in patients with large acute myocardial infarcts as compared to primary PCI alone.
The purpose of the prospective, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled multicenter pilot study is to evaluate the effectiveness of abciximab on rescuing the hypoperfused brain tissue, as assessed by MRI, and the relative safety of abciximab in patients with wake-up stroke.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of an optimization of muscle perfusion and oxygenation, as assessed by the NIRS technique, in critically ill patients with sepsis.
