There are about 10460 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Australia. 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 ability of dapirolizumab pegol (DZP) as an add-on treatment to standard of care (SOC) medication to achieve clinically relevant long term improvement of moderate to severe disease activity.
A phase Ib, open-label platform study of select drug combinations chosen in order to characterize safety and tolerability of each treatment arm tested and to identify recommended doses and regimens for future studies.
This phase III trial compares standard chemotherapy to therapy with liposome-encapsulated daunorubicin-cytarabine (CPX-351) and/or gilteritinib for patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia with or without FLT3 mutations. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as daunorubicin, cytarabine, and gemtuzumab ozogamicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. CPX-351 is made up of daunorubicin and cytarabine and is made in a way that makes the drugs stay in the bone marrow longer and could be less likely to cause heart problems than traditional anthracycline drugs, a common class of chemotherapy drug. Some acute myeloid leukemia patients have an abnormality in the structure of a gene called FLT3. Genes are pieces of DNA (molecules that carry instructions for development, functioning, growth and reproduction) inside each cell that tell the cell what to do and when to grow and divide. FLT3 plays an important role in the normal making of blood cells. This gene can have permanent changes that cause it to function abnormally by making cancer cells grow. Gilteritinib may block the abnormal function of the FLT3 gene that makes cancer cells grow. The overall goals of this study are, 1) to compare the effects, good and/or bad, of CPX-351 with daunorubicin and cytarabine on people with newly diagnosed AML to find out which is better, 2) to study the effects, good and/or bad, of adding gilteritinib to AML therapy for patients with high amounts of FLT3/ITD or other FLT3 mutations and 3) to study changes in heart function during and after treatment for AML. Giving CPX-351 and/or gilteritinib with standard chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia compared to standard chemotherapy alone.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of venetoclax and obinutuzumab (VEN + G) compared with fludarabine + cyclophosphamide + rituximab or bendamustine + rituximab (FCR/BR) in FIT participants (FIT is defined by a cumulative illness rating scale [CIRS]/score of ≤6 and a normal creatinine clearance of ≥70 mL/min) with previously untreated CLL without DEL(17P) or TP53 mutation requiring treatment. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either VEN + G (Arm A) or FCR/BR (Arm B).
The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of gene therapy in boys with DMD. It is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with two thirds of participants assigned to gene therapy. The one third of participants who are randomized to the placebo arm will have an opportunity for treatment with gene therapy at the beginning of the second year.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of brolucizumab compared to panretinal photocoagulation laser (PRP) in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). This evaluation will provide information that brolucizumab is non-inferior to PRP with respect to the change in best corrected visual acuity at Week 54.
Brief Summary: Some colorectal liver metastases can only be resected after inducing liver regeneration by portal vein embolization (PVE) to increase size function of the future liver remnant (FLR). While PVE is standard, embolization of portal vein and hepatic veins (PVE/HVE) on one side of the liver may faster and more extensive liver size and function growth. PVE/HVE is a novel procedure and requires a safety and feasibility evaluation in a pretrial (DRAGON1) to then be compared in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to PVE (DRAGON 2).
Primary Objectives: - Safety run-in: To confirm the recommended dose of isatuximab when combined with lenalidomide and dexamethasone in participants with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) - Randomized Phase 3: To demonstrate the clinical benefit of isatuximab in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone in the prolongation of progression-free survival when compared to lenalidomide and dexamethasone in subjects with high-risk SMM Secondary Objectives: Safety run-in - To assess overall response rate (ORR) - To assess duration of response (DOR) - To assess minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity in participants achieving very good partial response (VGPR) or complete response (CR) - To assess time to diagnostic (SLiM CRAB) progression or death - To assess time to first-line treatment for multiple myeloma (MM) - To assess the potential immunogenicity of isatuximab - Impact of abnormal cytogenetic subtype on participant outcome Randomized Phase 3 - Key Secondary Objectives: To compare between the arms - MRD negativity - Sustained MRD negativity - Second progression-free survival (PFS2) - Overall survival Other Secondary Objectives: To evaluate in both arms - CR rate - ORR - DOR - Time to diagnostic (SLiM CRAB) progression - Time to biochemical progression - Time to first-line treatment for MM - Safety and tolerability - Pharmacokinetics (PK) - Potential of isatuximab immunogenicity - Clinical outcome assessments (COAs)
A study to assess the efficacy and safety of durvalumab in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy (paclitaxel + carboplatin) followed by maintenance durvalumab with or without olaparib for patients with newly diagnosed advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer.
Three sexual health clinical services across Australia and their associated pathology testing laboratories are implementing a new management program for gonorrhoea infection. The services are implementing the use of gonorrhoea drug resistance testing as part of routine clinical and laboratory practice, where drug resistance test results are provided to clinicians quickly to guide choice of antibiotic therapy. Clinicians will identify gonorrhoea infection that is ciprofloxacin susceptible so that it can be treated with ciprofloxacin therapy, rather than ceftriaxone.
