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 BioVAT-HF trial will test the hypothesis that cardiomyocyte implantation via engineered heart muscle (EHM), the proposed investigational medicinal product (IMP; designated "Biological Ventricular Assist Tissue" or BioVAT), results in sustainable remuscularization and biological enhancement of myocardial performance in the failing heart. EHM are constructed from defined mixtures of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes and stromal cells in a bovine collagen type I hydrogel. Comprehensive preclinical testing confirmed the rationale for the clinical translation of the myocardial remuscularization strategy by EHM implantation. The patient target population for EHM therapy is patients suffering from advanced heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF; EF: ≤35%) and no realistic option for heart transplantation.
The reason for this 12-month, open-label study is to see if the study drug lasmiditan is safe and effective for the intermittent acute treatment of migraine in children aged 6 to 17. The study will last about 12 months and may include up to 7 visits.
The reason for this study is to see if lasmiditan is safe and effective in children aged 6 to 17 with migraine. The study will last up to 20 weeks and may include up to 4 visits.
Evaluation of non-invasive prognostic parameters in patients receiving transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) for complications of portal hypertension. Patients are cared according to the local standardized follow up program. Clinical and laboratory data from standard patient care are evaluated for potential prognostic value.
All-comers, prospective, multi-center, single-arm, non-interventional post market clinical follow-up (PMCF) Cohort 1 - Claudicants: Rutherford Clinical Category (RCC) 2-3 Cohort 2 - Critical Limb Ischemia: Rutherford Clinical Category (RCC) 4-6
This is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled multicenter clinical trial. The aim is to provide evidence for efficacy of TBS in the treatment of patients with major depression. There will be a direct comparison between combined cTBS/iTBS with sham TBS. Overall, 236 patients with major depression will be randomized either to active TBS or sham TBS in a 1:1 ratio. The planned stimulation paradigms will be applied as add-on therapy to standard therapy (antidepressive medication and / or psychotherapy). Patients will receive 30 stimulation sessions in a 6-week treatment period (one session daily from Monday to Friday). Follow up assessments are scheduled 1 and 3 months after end of treatment period.
Time-limited adaptive responses of thyroid function are common in the critically ill. About 70% of all patients treated on intensive care units develop a so-called non-thyroidal illness syndrome (NTIS) or TACITUS (thyroid allostasis in critical illness, tumours, uraemia and starvation), which is marked by low serum concentrations of the thyroid hormone T3 and other adaptive reactions of thyroid homeostasis. Occasionally, temporarily elevated concentrations of thyrotropin (TSH) and peripheral thyroid hormones are to be observed, especially after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). However, the available evidence is limited, although abnormal concentrations of thyroid hormones after CPR have occasionally been reported. Aim of the planned study is to investigate the thyrotropic (i.e. thyroid-controlling) partial function of the anterior pituitary lobe immediately after CPR. It is intended to evaluate statistical measures of TSH concentration and peripheral thyroid hormones in de-identified datasets (protocol A). Additionally, a prospective sub-study (protocol B) aims at a more precise description of pituitary and thyroid responses by means of serial investigations in routine serum samples, both immediately after CPR and during the course of ongoing treatment. This includes the evaluation of additional possible predictors, too. Primary endpoint of the study is changed TSH concentration immediately after CPR compared to the TSH value 24 hours later. Secondary endpoint is the relation between thyroid-controlling pituitary function and mortality. A high proportion of patients undergoing CPR will eventually receive iodinated radiocontrast media (e.g. for computed tomography or coronary angiography). This is one of the reasons why early identifying subjects at high risk for possible iodine-induced thyrotoxicosis is important. Increased oxygen consumption of the heart in hyperthyroidism is one of the reasons for high mortality in thyrotoxicosis. Therefore, accurate diagnosis of alterations in the hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis is of paramount importance.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether markers of brain structure and function from MRI are associated with different levels of spatial orientation and gait parameters in people with mild cognitive impairment or dementia due to Alzheimer's disease when walking through a real world environment.
This study aims to investigate the influence of postoperative head position on clinical outcomes after DMEK via a wearable sensor.
This phase I/II clinical trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of the combined administration of midostaurin and gemtuzumab ozogamicin in the frame of first-line standard chemotherapy in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients displaying a cytogenetic aberration or fusion transcript in the core-binding factor (CBF) genes or FMS-like tyrosine Kinase 3 (FLT3) mutation.
