There are about 2459 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in New Zealand. 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.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and technical feasibility of the ReLeaf Catheter System in the creation of one or more tissue leaflets in the femoral and/or popliteal vein in subjects with chronic venous insufficiency and who meet the protocol entry criteria.
A Phase 2, Multicenter, Open-Label Extension (OLE) Study with ABT-122 in Active Psoriatic Arthritis Subjects Who Have Completed a Preceding Study M14-197 Phase 2 Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT).
This study will primarily evaluate the safety and efficacy of andecaliximab in adults with active Crohn's disease. The study will consist of a Double-Blind Phase of 8 weeks followed by an Open-Label Extension. Participants who complete the Double-Blind Phase will be eligible to enroll in the optional Open-Label Extension for an additional 44 weeks. Participants who complete Week 52 assessments will be eligible to enter the Extended Treatment Phase to continue treatment with andecaliximab for an additional 156 weeks.
This open-label extension and safety monitoring study is composed of two parts: Part 1 will evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of continued etrolizumab treatment in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who were previously enrolled in the etrolizumab Phase III Study GA29144 (NCT02394028) and who meet eligibility criteria for enrollment into Part 1. In Part 2, participants who have stopped etrolizumab treatment (either by exiting Part 1 of this study or by entering directly from Study GA29144 [NCT02394028]) will be monitored for 92 weeks for progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) and other safety events.
This study will use a modified version of a positive airway pressure device to supply air to the participant, while undergoing supervised polysomnography. Positive airway pressures are typically applied to many patients with hypoventilation, in this study these pressures will be titrated by a qualified sleep technician. During the night these pressures will be altered to optimise comfort.
The aim of this clinical trial is to determine whether a novel combination antibiotic treatment (vancomycin/daptomycin + beta-lactam) is superior to the standard antibiotic treatment (vancomycin/daptomycin) for hospitalised adults with Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia. The hypothesis is that the addition of beta-lactam antibiotics (these are antibiotics from the penicillin family) to the standard therapy will lead to more efficient bacterial killing and hence lead to faster clearance of bacteria from the blood stream and other areas of infection, thereby reducing the risk of the spread of infection and death. The study design is an investigator-initiated, multi-centre, open-label, randomised controlled trial. This will include 440 participants diagnosed with Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia recruited over a period of 4 years (July 2015 - June 2019) from within Infectious Diseases inpatient units across 21 hospital sites including 18 from within Australia and 3 located in Singapore. Participation will be voluntary and subject to informed consent. The participants will be randomised 1:1 to either the standard therapy group or combination therapy group. The combination therapy will include a treatment of intravenous beta-lactam for the first 7 days of treatment, in addition to the standard treatment (either vancomycin or daptomycin). The primary outcome measure will be complication-free survival 90 days post randomisation.
HABIT-II is a feasibility study aimed at home monitoring of patients with heart failure. B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) has strong correlations to the severity of heart failure. Lower BNP levels are closely associated with better clinical outcomes. The goal of HABIT-II is to demonstrate that the results of daily patient self-testing of BNP at home will provide sufficient information to guide physicians to modify therapy and lower BNP levels over time.
The primary objective of the study is to characterize the safety profile and duration of bronchodilation of a single dose of inhaled TV48108.

Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) is a serious, life-threatening, bile acid related liver disease of unknown cause. Without treatment, it frequently progresses to liver fibrosis and eventual cirrhosis requiring liver transplantation or resulting in death. The investigational drug, Obeticholic Acid (OCA) is a modified bile acid and FXR agonist that is derived from the primary human bile acid chenodeoxycholic acid. The key mechanisms of action of OCA, including its choleretic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fibrotic properties, underlie its hepatoprotective effects and result in attenuation of injury and improved liver function in a cholestatic liver disease such as PBC. The study will assess the effect of OCA compared to placebo, combined with stable standard care, on clinical outcomes in PBC participants.
