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 goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the treatment effects of the investigational new drug OMT-28 in patients with Primary Mitochondrial Disease. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is OMT-28 safe and well tolerated in this patient population? - Does OMT-28 reduce Growth Differentiation Factor 15 (GDF-15) and other relevant blood markers of mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation? - Does OMT-28 improve symptoms of the disease, e.g. fatigue or exercise intolerance? Participants will be asked to participate in 6 study visits at an experienced clinical center, including physical examinations and exercise tests, and take the study medication regularly once per day according to the protocol. Researchers will compare for every participant the results after 3 months and 6 months of treatment with a preceding 3 month period of standard care treatment to investigate the effects of OMT-28 on clinical parameters and a number of blood parameters.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of romosozumab treatment for 12-months compared with bisphosphonate(s) on the number of clinical fractures at 12-months; the number of any fractures at 12-months and change in lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) Z-score at 6-months.
To describe the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, therapy, and treatment outcomes of patients in whom the combination biomarker BV (combination of TRAIL, IP-10, and CRP) is used, and to compare them with control patients without BV measurement. Secondary objectives: - Qualitative evaluation of indication as well as adherence to the test result. - Comparison of antimicrobial therapy, performed diagnostics, hospitalization, and outcomes between patients with high BV score (bacterial) and patients with low BV score (viral).
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the ablation system (OMNYPULSE Bi-directional catheter and TRUPULSE generator) when used for isolation of the atrial pulmonary veins (PVs) in treatment of participants with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF).
In this study, the researchers will be using eye tracking and detailed lighting measurements to understand how different types of indoor and outdoor lighting affect the eye movements and pupil sizes of our participants. Participants will be paired up and undergo six eye tracking sessions, split across two appointments. Each appointment will involve viewing either indoor or outdoor scenes, and before each session, participants will spend time adapting to the lighting conditions. Overall, each participant will spend 24 minutes being tracked, and the entire study will take about 2-3 hours to complete. The investigators expect differences in eye movements and pupil size between indoor and outdoor scenes.
Roxadustat is a licensed medicine to treat anemia in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Anemia is a low level of red blood cells. Current treatment for anemia is to have injections of medicines called erythropoietin stimulating agents (also known as ESAs) to help the bone marrow make more red blood cells. These are often given together with iron. This treatment is also available to children and teenagers with CKD. However, there are some safety concerns with ESAs. Also, as roxadustat is taken orally, this may be another option for treating anemia in children and teenagers with CKD. In this study, children and teenagers with CKD and anemia will take roxadustat for up to 52 weeks to treat their anemia. The main aim of the study is to learn how roxadustat affects anemia in children and teenagers with CKD. This is an open-label study which means the children and teenagers in the study and the clinic staff know they will be taking roxadustat. In this study, the children and teenagers with CKD who need treatment for anemia can take part. Those currently being treated with an ESA will be switched to roxadustat. Those who have not been treated with an ESA can start on roxadustat straight away. All children and teenagers in the study will take roxadustat 3 times a week for up to 52 weeks (1 year). They will start on a fixed dose of roxadustat for 4 weeks. Blood samples will be taken regularly to check hemoglobin levels. The roxadustat dose may be changed if the blood levels of hemoglobin are too high, too low, or change too quickly. After 4 weeks the dose may be changed, if needed, to keep blood levels of hemoglobin in the blood to just below the normal range. Firstly, teenagers will take roxadustat. 10 teenagers will take their fixed dose of roxadustat for 4 weeks. They will give blood samples to help the researchers work out the most suitable dose for the rest of the teenagers in the study. When the rest of the teenagers start taking roxadustat at the most suitable dose for teenagers, 10 children will take roxadustat for 4 weeks. These 10 children will give blood samples to help the researchers work out the most suitable dose for the rest of the children in the study. Then, the rest of the children will take roxadustat at the most suitable dose for children. There will be many clinic visits during the study. Overnight hospital stays are not expected. There will be 1 visit every 2 weeks for the first 4 weeks of taking roxadustat, then every 4 weeks until the end of treatment. Finally there is 1 visit 4 weeks after treatment has finished. During most visits, the children and teenagers will have their vital signs checked (blood pressure, body temperature and heart rate). Fluid status (how much water is in the body) will also be checked for those who need dialysis. The children and teenagers will also have blood tests and the study doctors will check for any medical problems. The children and teenagers will have a medical examination before their first dose of roxadustat and again at about 24-week (6-month) and 52-week (13-month) visits. They will have an electrocardiogram (ECG) before their first dose of roxadustat and again at the 12-week, 24-week, 36-week, and 52-week visit. They will also have urine tests at the 4-week, 24-week and 52-week visits. At the 52-week visit, the children and teenagers will also have blood tests for hemoglobin and iron levels. The study doctors will also check for any medical problems.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of zipalertinib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC harboring EGFR ex20ins mutations and other mutations.
This study aims to investigate the optimal oxygen flow rate needed during tracheal intubation with the C-MAC video laryngoscope (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany) using Miller-blade or Macintosh-blade size No. 0 or No. 1 in the operating room or intensive care unit. The investigators hypothesize that the difference between low-flow and high-flow supplemental oxygen is negligible.
The purpose of this study is to assess the clinical efficacy, safety, PK, and PD of multiple dose levels of ESK-001 compared with placebo in adult patients with SLE.
Low-grade glioma (LGG) represent typically slowly growing primary brain tumors with world health organization (WHO) grade I or II who affect young adults around their fourth decade. Radiological feature on MRI is a predominantly T2 hyperintense signal, LGG show typically no contrast uptake. Radiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of LGG. However, not least because of the good prognosis with long term survivorship the timing of radiotherapy has been discussed controversially. In order to avoid long term sequelae such as neurocognitive impairment, malignant transformation or secondary neoplasms initiation was often postponed as long as possible
