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.
To assure the quality of follow-up and treatment, data of glaucoma patients are stored and evaluated after anonymisation.
Since the introduction of calcineurin-based immunosuppression, patient and graft survival in pediatric liver transplantation (LT) improved significantly. However, in contrast, calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) toxicity leads to significant morbidity and impairs quality of life for recipients. Moreover, CNI cannot prevent long-term allograft inflammation and fibrosis. Mesenchymal stem (stromal) cells (MSC) have potent immunomodulatory properties potentially promoting allograft tolerance and ameliorating toxicity of exposure to high dose CNI. Previous trials for non-solid organ transplant indications have shown an excellent safety profile of intravenous MSC application. The MYSTEP1 trial aims to investigate safety and benefits portal and intravenous MSC infusion in pediatric LT.
The purpose of this study is to develop an immune-phenotype based prediction of postoperative SIRS in patients undergoing open heart surgery.
TARGET-HCC is a longitudinal, observational study of patients being managed for HCC in usual clinical practice. TARGET-HCC will create a research registry of participants with HCC within academic and community real-world practices in order to assess the safety and effectiveness of the entire spectrum of current and future therapies across diverse populations.
The combined analysis of microbiome, immunological parameters and host genetics in patients has potential for applying personalized approaches of prevention, diagnostics or therapy in the future. However, the acquisition and analysis of these patient characteristics in a scientifically sound, technically reliable, cost-effective, practicable and future-oriented fashion are a far from trivial task. Therefore the objectives of the study are (i) to optimize a sample and data acquisition and analysis pipeline that fulfills these criteria (using samples from healthy volunteers); (ii) validate the pipeline in a cohort of children undergoing stem cell transplantation, yielding information on host immuno-genetics, gut immune function and the human gut microbiome; (iii) deduct the most critical parameters for host-microbiome interplay from this complex dataset.
Phase III, open-label, randomized, controlled multi-center study of the efficacy of L19IL2/L19TNF neoadjuvant intratumoral treatment in Stage III B/C melanoma patients.
This is an investigator-initiated study. The primary goal is to evaluate the efficacy of two different cervical disc devices (prosthesis vs rigid spacer) with respect to postoperative change in neck disability index. The evaluation will include clinical and radiological parameters.

Characterisation of effect of SIRT and DSM-TACE as local treatment options for liver metastases in patients with advanced uveal melanoma with respect to progression-free survival and exploratory comparison of secondary endpoints regarding application, activity, adverse effects and impact on quality of life in a randomized study design.
The main aim of the study is to check effectiveness, side effects, and tolerability of recombinant von Willebrand Factor (rVWF), with or without ADVATE, in the treatment and control of nonsurgical bleeding events in pediatric participants (less than (<)18 years of age) with severe hereditary von Willebrand disease (VWD). The participants will be treated with rVWF for 12-18 months. Their von Willebrand Disease will be treated by their doctor according to their doctor's usual clinical practice. During the study, participants will be followed up at clinics or over telephone calls.
