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.
Patients with CVID will be offered to participate in this observational trial during the routine annual visit in the outpatient clinic at the Center of chronic Immunodeficiency (CCI) of the University Medical Center Freiburg, Germany. Clinical and laboratory data at the time of presentation will be assessed. Additionally, parameters of abdominal ultrasound, duplex sonography of the liver and spleen, and liver and spleen stiffness at the time of presentation will be evaluated. If applicable, clinical and/or interventional parameters indicating clinically significant portal hypertension (i.e. presence of varices or portal-hypertensive gastropathy in esophago-gastroduodenoscopy, presence of ascites) within 12 months prior and after the index visit will be assessed. During the visit, serum/plasma samples and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) are collected and stored in an associated biobank.
In the planned efficacy study, a prospective randomized controlled trial will be conducted to investigate the extent to which a multimodal stress reduction and lifestyle modification program can be reflected in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) within the framework of a clinical study. For this purpose, 118 patients with IBS will be enrolled in a clinical study. The intervention group will participate in a partial outpatient multimodal stress reduction and lifestyle modification program over 10 weeks, while the waitlist control group will only receive an educational session and written information on treatment and self-help options. The primary research question encompasses the examination of the program's impact on the severity of symptoms associated with irritable bowel syndrome (measured with the IBS-Symptom Severity Scale [IBS-SSS]) and additionally its influence on quality of life, stress, and mental well-being. Another aspect of the study is the utilization of medical services (e.g., comparing the number of doctor visits; intake of prescribed and over-the-counter medications). Additionally, a comparison of days of work disability will be conducted.
PRIMETEST II is an interventional study involving low-volume metastatic seminoma. It explores a novel approach using robot-assisted primary retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, aiming to reduce long-term side effects and improve quality of life. By identifying factors predicting cancer recurrence, the study hopes to tailor treatments for better outcomes. The approach could potentially spare patients from chemotherapy induced long-term side effects while maintaining excellent survival rates, presenting a promising shift in testicular cancer care for this specific patient group.
This is a parallel, Phase 3, two-arm study for the treatment of newly diagnosed moderate or severe chronic GVHD. The study duration for a participant includes up to 4 weeks for screening; a treatment period until clinically meaningful cGVHD progression (defined as progression requiring addition of new systemic treatment for cGVHD), relapse/recurrence of the underlying disease, participant starts new systemic treatment for cGVHD or experiences an unacceptable toxicity, at the request of the participants or the investigators, or until the end of study is reached, whichever comes first; at least 30 days follow-up of adverse events (AEs) after the last dose until resolution or stabilization, if applicable; and long-term follow-up until death or study close-out, whichever comes first.
The purpose of the study is to see how effective JNJ-77242113 is in participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis compared to placebo and deucravacitinib.
This is a first-in-human, randomized, double- blind, placebo-controlled, dose escalation study to investigate how different doses of CAN10 are tolerated, taken up by the body and how long CAN10 stays in the body. In the first part of the study, the single ascending dose (SAD) cohorts, CAN10 will be given as a single intravenous dose to healthy subjects. In the second part of the study, the multiple ascending dose (MAD) cohorts, CAN10 will be given as repeated subcutaneous doses to participants with mild to moderate plaque psoriasis.
Subjects previously enrolled / randomized in the ReActIF-ICE (Recovery from acute immune failure in septic shock by immune cell extracorporeal terapy - immune competence enhancement) study received either standard sepsis treatment (control group) or standard sepsis treatment and additionally the ARTICE treatment (treatment group) during their index hospitalization. All subjects are followed up for 90 days after enrollment. In this long term follow up study, the enrolled subjects shall be followed up beyond 90 days for up to 5 years.
Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT), consisting of external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and chemotherapy, followed by brachytherapy (BT) is the standard of care for patients with locally advanced cervical carcinoma. In current clinical practice, conventionally, one radiotherapy plan based on the initial planning computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the pelvis is applied for the complete 5-6 weeks of EBRT. However, there is a high degree of cervix and uterus motion in the pelvis due to different fillings of the bladder and the bowel. Consequently, large safety margins are required to compensate for organ movement, potentially leading to higher toxicity. Lately, daily high-quality cone-beam CT (CBCT) guided adaptive radiotherapy, aided by artificial intelligence (AI), became clinically available. Due to the improved soft-tissue contrast, the treatment plan can now be online adapted to the current position of the tumor and the adjacent organs-at-risk (OAR), while the patient is lying on the treatment couch. Moreover, the German Research Cancer Center offers the unique possibility of additional weekly magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in treatment position using a shuttle system. Daily CBCT-adapted EBRT in combination with weekly MRI in treatment position might therefore offer superior sparing of surrounding OAR and consequently reduction of treatment-associated side-effects. However, to the investigators knowledge, no toxicity data for daily CBCT/AI adaptive EBRT of locally advanced cervical cancer with additional MR-guidance exists. The AIM-C1 trial therefore aims to assess the potential of daily CBCT adaptive and AI aided EBRT combined with additional weekly offline MR-guidance in treatment position using a shuttle system.
This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo- and active-controlled, parallel-group, 24-week trial to investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of XXB750 in participants with HFrEF/HFmrEF.
The COSGOD III trial performed follow up until term age or discharge from the neonatal intensive care unit, whatever came first. The first neonate was randomised in September 2017 and the last in October 2021. A prospective follow up of the included neonates until an age of two years was not feasible in the COSGOD III trial since funding for long-term follow-up was not available. However, data on long-term outcome of the included neonates into COSGOD III trial are of high interest. In many centres, who participated in the COSGOD III trial neonates are assessed routinely for long term outcome in outpatient clinics with Bayleys III/IV test or PARCA-R (Parent Report of Children's Abilities) questionnaire. Aim of the present study is therefore to analyse in neonates, who were included into the COSGOD III trial, in a retrospective observational study routinely performed long-term survival and neurodevelopmental outcome assessment at a corrected age of 2 years (18-30 months).
