There are about 6915 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Austria. 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 assesses the performance of serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in a wide range of disease courses, in terms of ALS progression, disease duration, and tracheostomy invasive ventilation (TIV). The aim of the research project is to investigate the correlation between NfL serum concentration and the natural course of the disease, the ALS progression rate, and specific phenotypes of ALS. Furthermore, the performance of NfL as a therapeutic biomarker will be studied. A systematic analysis of the NfL serum concentration in a cohort of 3,000 ALS patients using the Single Molecule Analysis method (SIMOA) will be performed. This analysis is carried out as a multi-center study.
Transient mild hypothermia (core body temperature 35-32°C) is common and usually without consequences for the brain or other organs. However, prolonged severe accidental hypothermia (core body temperature below 28°C) due to accidents is rare, and usually fatal in more than 50% of cases. Little is known on its physiopathology, on prognostic factors for rewarming decision or ideal rewarming techniques for better survival. Furthermore, complications after successful rewarming are extremely frequent and very often severe or fatal. Accidental hypothermia is a frequent problem during the winter months and can be caused by snow sport accidents, near drowning and urban cold exposure. The International Hypothermia Registry's principle goal is to increase knowledge on accidental hypothermia by creating the largest database on accidental hypothermia which will comprise enough patient data to give a statistical power since the causes of accidental hypothermia and its treatment varies greatly. The International Hypothermia Registry (IHR) will enable improvement of pre- and in-hospital treatment and rewarming methods, study survival predictors and prevention of post-rewarming complications. By this way, the IHR will permit the establishment of evidence-based diagnosis and treatment guidelines.
The study aims to determine the benefits of a web-based documentation and advice for elderly people and their caregivers. It is a randomized controlled trial with two arms (intervention, control). While the participants will be supported by a web-based application within the intervention, they will receive standard care only in the control. In addition, a follow-up until the end of the study will be realized.
This is a multicenter, single arm, open-label, Phase 2 study in mutiple myeloma with newly diagnosed and treatment-naïve participants for whom high-dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation is part of the intended treatment plan. The study is evaluating a technique called Mass Spectrometry Minimal Residual Disease (MS-MRD) using blood samples and compares it with the minimal residual disease (MRD) technique using bone marrow samples.
This trial randomizes patients with a neurovascular diagnosis to a type of blood pressure diary for secondary stroke prevention (conventional blood pressure diary or blood pressure diary including patient-provided images). Outcomes include adherence and patient-reported outcomes.
The study will investigate the influence of NNC0194-0499 on the blood levels of the two components of a birth control pill, Microgynon®. Participants will get the birth control pill in form of tablets in two periods of 8 days each. Participants will get NNC0194-0499 as injection under the skin of their thigh. The injections will be given once weekly for 5 weeks. The study will last for about 11 to 15 weeks, depending on the length of the screening period. Participants will have to stay overnight at the study centre (2 nights and 4 nights, respectively) Only healthy women who are not able to bear children can take part in this study.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of ALXN2220 in the treatment of adult participants with ATTR-CM by evaluating the difference between the ALXN2220 and placebo groups as assessed by the composite endpoint of all-cause mortality (ACM) and total cardiovascular (CV) clinical events.
In this retrospective study, the investigators seek to investigate the incidence of pneumothorax following possible risk factors, and elucidate its association with outcomes.
The objective of the present study is to demonstrate treatment efficacy of transcranial pulse stimulation for patients with Post-COVID-19 related neurological symptoms (fatigue, cognitive deficits, mood deterioration). Fatigue, as measured by the Fatigue Impact Scale (FIS), will represent the primary outcome variable. The verum treatment will be compared to a sham (placebo) condition.
