There are about 6874 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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functional outcomes and sports ability after surgical treatment of insertional Achilles tendon tendinopathy using tendon detachment, debridement, and double-row anchor refixation.
Study purpose: To evaluate if previously high-frequent (3-5 weekly) aflibercept treated neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) can be extended in their treatment interval when switched to faricimab. Primary objective: To assess the efficacy of faricimab compared to aflibercept in terms of durability at 32 weeks by extending treatment interval in previous high-frequent aflibercept treated nAMD.
The aim of this retrospective study is to investigate the relationship between factor XIII activity and the outcome of gastrointestinal bleedings. Since factor XIII is of great importance in haemostasis and plays a key role in stabilizing the fibrin clot, it can be assumed that a deficiency of factor XIII leads to an unfavorable course of gastrointestinal bleedings. Our hypothesis is that early detection of such a deficiency can prevent a more severe course and that substitution of factor XIII contributes to faster cessation of bleeding, improves patient outcome and reduces the number of red cell concentrates required.
The study aims at evaluating the maintenance of virologic suppression of dolutegravir/lamivudine (DTG/3TC) fixed dose combination (FDC) at Week 48 post-switch from bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF) in participants living with Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) who are of at least 50 years of age and above.
This study is an interventional, randomized, multinational, multicenter, double-blind, phase 2 study with a follow-up period of circa 12 months. The intension of this clinical trial is to investigate the long-term sequelae (named Long COVID syndrome; post COVID or PASC) of an infection with Corona Virus Type 2 that has resulted in a condition known as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus Type 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BC 007 as a treatment for long-lasting COVID-symptoms in patients who were neither intubated nor supported with extracorporeal blood oxygenation (ECMO) during their acute COVID-19 infection. The study drug acts by neutralizing functional autoantibodies directed against G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). Neutralization of the autoantibodies is expected to induce a beneficial effect on symptoms typically seen in patients with long COVID syndrome. Functional autoantibodies are proteins belonging to the class of G-type immunoglobulins that can be synthesized by activation of the immune system and can induce various pathogenic activities by binding to one of the extracellular loops of G-proteins (GPCR-AAB). The study consists of a screening phase of up to 35 days, treatment (two administrations by intravenous infusion at two-week intervals either with the study drug (BC 007) or with placebo (NaCl 0.9%), with an initial follow-up period of 15 days after each administration and an extended follow-up period of 330 days. Patients are required to visit the study center for follow-up visits at specified intervals. For the entire study duration of 395 days from screening to the end of the study, 11 site visits are planned.
This study is looking at how safe it is to switch from emicizumab to Mim8, in people with haemophilia A. Mim8 is a new medicine that is used to prevent bleeding episodes in people with haemophilia A. Mim8 works by replacing the function of the missing clotting factor VIII (FVIII). Mim8 will be injected under the skin using a pen-injector either once every week, once every two weeks or once every month. The participants will be trained in using the pen injector. The participants can choose themselves, in collaboration with the study doctor how often they get Mim8 in this study. When the participant will get their first Mim8 injection depends on their current treatment with emicizumab. The participants will get their first Mim8 injection at Visit 2. Participants will have between 6 and 27 Mim8 injections. The total number of injections participants will have depends on their dosing frequency. The study will last for about 6-12 months. While taking part in this study, there are some restrictions about what medicine participant can use. The study doctor will tell the participants more about this. In case the participants experience bleeds, these can be treated with additional haemostatic medicine as agreed with the study doctor. Female participants cannot take part if they are pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to get pregnant during the study period.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the ablation system (THERMOCOOL SMARTTOUCH SF [STSF] catheter and TRUPULSE generator) when used for isolation of the atrial pulmonary veins (PVs) in treatment of participants with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF).
The purpose of this clinical trial is to test whether electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve via a device placed on the top of the external ear can reduce the postoperative inflammatory reaction after Whipple's surgery (pancreatoduodenectomy).
The coprimary objectives of the study are to: - evaluate the efficacy of rocatinlimab in combination with topical corticosteroid and/or topical calcineurin inhibitor (TCS/TCI), compared with placebo in combination with TCS/TCI at Week 24, assessed using Validated Investigator's Global Assessment for Atopic Dermatitis (vIGA-AD™). - evaluate the efficacy of rocatinlimab, in combination with TCS/TCI, compared with placebo in combination with TCS/TCI at Week 24, assessed using Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI).
The goal of this clinical study is to learn about disease-risk and age-associated changes in DNA methylation patterns associated with disease risk or age in healthy women aged 30-60 in response to health-promoting lifestyle intervention (intermittent fasting or smoking cessation). The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Are the scores of DNA methylation in epigenetic signatures associated with age, women's cancer risk, or risk exposure reduced after 6 months of lifestyle intervention compared to baseline? - What are the dynamics of DNA methylation changes during or following intervention, and do differences in changes between different sample types exist? - Which other biomarkers of health and disease, including metabolic changes, microbiome, clinical, mental, or inflammatory parameters, are altered following intervention? The investigators also aim to explore whether DNA methylation changes are associated with changes in other biomarkers mentioned above. Participants will be allocated to intermittent fasting or smoking cessation based on inclusion criteria. Intermittent fasting encompasses a 16:8 intermittent fasting schedule. Food intake is limited to an 8 h window per day with fasting for the remaining 16 h. Within the intermittent fasting study, participants are randomised to receive a ketogenic supplement (medium-chain triglyceride fibre) or not. Participants in the smoking cessation study will be guided to stop smoking. All participants will receive 1:1 personal coaching throughout the study, and will be provided with an optional exercise programme. All participants will also receive nutritional advice from a professional dietician throughout the study. Participants are invited to donate samples every 2 months for 6 months. Researchers will compare signatures at the start and after 6 months of intervention. Within the intermittent fasting group, researchers will compare effects in individuals that received the ketogenic supplement to those that did not.
