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.
This study will evaluate the safety, biomarkers, and efficacy of tominersen compared with placebo in participants with prodromal and early manifest Huntington's Disease.
Researchers are looking for a better way to prevent an ischemic stroke which occurs when a blood clot travelled to the brain in people who within the last 72 hours had: - an acute stroke due to a blood clot that formed outside the heart (acute non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke), or - TIA/mini-stroke with a high risk of turning into a stroke (high-risk transient ischemic attack), and who are planned to receive standard of care therapy. Acute ischemic strokes or TIA/mini-stroke result from a blocked or reduced blood flow to a part of the brain. They are caused by blood clots that travel to the brain and block the vessels that supply it. If these blood clots form elsewhere than in the heart, the stroke is called non-cardioembolic. People who already had a non-cardioembolic stroke are more likely to have another stroke. This is why they are treated preventively with an antiplatelet therapy, the current standard of care. Antiplatelet medicines prevent platelets, components of blood clotting, from clumping together. Anticoagulants are another type of medicine that prevents blood clots from forming by interfering with a process known as coagulation (or blood clotting). The study treatment asundexian is a new type of anticoagulant currently under development to provide further treatment options. Asundexian aims to further improve the standard of care without increasing the risk of bleeding. The main purpose of this study is to learn whether asundexian works better than placebo at reducing ischemic strokes in participants who recently had a non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke or TIA/mini-stroke when given in addition to standard antiplatelet therapy. A placebo is a treatment that looks like a medicine but does not have any medicine in it. Another aim is to compare the occurrence of major bleeding events during the study between the asundexian and the placebo group. Major bleedings have a serious or even life-threatening impact on a person's health. Dependent on the treatment group, the participants will either take asundexian or placebo once a day for at least 3 months up to 31 months. Approximately every 3 months during the treatment period, either a phone call or a visit to the study site is scheduled on an alternating basis. In addition, one visit before and up to two visits after the treatment period are planned. During the study, the study team will: - Check vital signs such as blood pressure and heart rate - Examine the participants' heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG) - Take blood samples - Ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events that happen in studies, even if they do not think the adverse events might be related to the study treatments. In addition, the participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire on quality of life at certain time points during the study.
Phase 1/2, multicenter, multiple dose clinical study designed to evaluate lonigutamab in subjects with TED.
In this study, participants will receive, in randomized, double-blind fashion, an intragastric bolus administration of either (i) 300 mg quinine, (ii) 5 g L-isoleucine, (iii) a combination of (i)+(ii), or (iv) control, before 350 ml (500 kcal) of a mixed-nutrient drink, to evaluate the effects on postprandial blood glucose, gastric emptying, and the hormone, and appetite, responses to the mixed-nutrient drink. Study visits will be separated by 3-7 days and participants will receive one treatment per visit. On each study visit, the participant will be intubated with a nasogastric feeding tube. At t= - 60 min (08:30 am), a baseline blood sample, visual analogue scale questionnaire (VAS), and breath sample will be collected and quinine or control will be administered through the feeding tube. 30 min later (at t= - 30 min), L-isoleucine or control will be administered over 2 min after which the feeding tube will be removed immediately. At t = -45, -30, -15, and -1 min further blood samples will be collected and VAS completed. At t = -1 min, participants will consume, within 1 minute, a mixed-nutrient drink, labeled with 100 mg of 1-13C-acetate for measurement of gastric emptying by breath sampling. Blood samples, VAS, and breath samples will be taken at regular intervals between t = 0-180 min.
ARGX-113-2010 is an open-label extension study with the aim to provide supporting evidence that efgartigimod PH20 SC is a safe and effective long-term treatment for bullous pemphigoid (BP), providing symptom control and eventually remission, while also reducing the cumulative exposure to oral corticosteroids (OCS). All participants who complete the end-of-treatment period (EoTP) visit at week 36 in ARGX-113-2009 will be invited to enroll. In ARGX-113-2009, participants received efgartigimod PH20 SC or placebo with concurrent OCS, or rescue therapy (without efgartigimod PH20 SC or placebo). Depending on their clinical status at the time of rollover into ARGX-113-2010, participants may stop, continue or initiate efgartigimod PH20 SC treatment. In ARGX-113-2010, participants will stop efgartigimod PH20 SC treatment when they achieve complete remission (CR) or partial remission (PR) while being off other concurrent BP therapy for at least 8 weeks. Participants not in CR or PR while off OCS for ≥8 weeks and not on rescue therapy will either start or continue efgartigimod PH20 SC treatment, while maintaining the treatment allocation of ARGX-113-2009 blinded. Participants may also be retreated with efgartigimod PH20 SC after a relapse. In this study, loading doses of 2000 mg (on day 1 and day 8 of a treatment course) and weekly maintenance doses of 1000 mg will be used.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of olezarsen in participants with SHTG.
The primary purpose of the study is to understand the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of encaleret when compared to standard of care (SoC) treatment in participants with Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia Type 1 (ADH1).
This is an extension study to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of ligelizumab in particiants who have completed a ligelizumab Phase III study in food allergy.
This is a multicenter, randomized (2:1), open-label, controlled Phase 3 trial of XL092 in combination with nivolumab versus sunitinib in subjects with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic nccRCC who have not received prior systemic anticancer therapy.
The aim of the study is to find out if patients with blood cancers receiving immunoglobulin (Ig) for the purpose of preventing infections can safety stop immunoglobulin after six months of therapy, and take oral antibiotics instead to prevent serious infections. Patients may be eligible to join this study if they are aged 18 years or above, have an acquired hypogammaglobulinaemia secondary to a haematological malignancy, and have been receiving intravenous or subcutaneous Ig for longer than 6 consecutive months. Participants will be randomised (allocated by chance) to one of three treatment groups, as follows: - Stop immunoglobulin (IVIg or SCIg) and be given oral antibiotics to take every day (ARM A) - Stop immunoglobulin (IVIg or SCIg) and be given oral antibiotics to keep at home to use as soon as symptoms of an infection develop (ARM B) - Continue receiving immunoglobulin (IVIg or SCIg) - this is the usual care group (ARM C) The duration of each treatment is for 12 months from study entry. Participants will be asked to attend a screening/baseline visit so that their treating clinician can assess their eligibility for the trial and collect baseline data. If eligible for the trial, participants will then be randomly allocated to one of the three treatment groups. Once randomised, active participation in the study will last for 13 months. During this period, participants will be asked to return to the hospital for a study visit every 3 months, with monthly telephone visits to check-in on your progress between each in-person visit. Participants will also be asked to complete a study diary, recording treatment compliance and signs/symptoms of infection experienced throughout the study period. Types of assessments and data collected will include: Medical history, demographics, physical examination, blood tests, stool sample, quality of life questionnaires, information about your general health, hospitalisations, medications and procedures. In order to assess and compare the cost-effectiveness of the treatment groups, the study team will also request authorisation from participants to access their Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS), Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS), and Australian Immunisation Register (AIR) data.
