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 researchers are trying to assess changes in physiological signals before and during seizures.
Paget's disease of the bone (PDB) is a metabolic bone disorder which in some individuals can cause pain, bone deformity, arthritis and deafness, although in many patients it does not cause symptoms. Paget's disease has a strong genetic component and SQSTM1 is the most important susceptibility gene. People who inherit mutations in SQSTM1 have a high risk of developing PDB later in life. This study is an extension of the ZiPP (Zoledronate in the Prevention of Paget's) study which was is randomised trial currently in progress to determine if the bisphosphonate zoledronic acid (ZA) can prevent or delay the development of PDB-like bone lesions compared with a dummy treatment (placebo) in people who inherit SQSMT1 gene mutations. Although the ZiPP study will provide information on whether early ZA treatment can favourably influence bone lesion development the significance of this to the patient in terms of symptoms is unclear as yet. The aim of the extension study is to keep these individuals under surveillance for any symptoms or signs of PDB over a further 5 year period and to evaluate if there has been any progression of PDB-like lesions by bone scan at the end of this period.
This study consists of two parts: 1) Part 1, a retrospective part on 250 consecutive patients following allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT) at the Royal Melbourne Hospital from 2012 to 2017, inclusive, and 2) Part 2, a prospective part on 120 allo-HSCT patients from 4 sites in Australia: the Royal Melbourne Hospital, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Austin Hospital, and Westmead Hospital. In Part 1, medical records of allo-HSCT recipients will be evaluated to determine the incidence and clinical outcomes of CMV viremia post HSCT, including both the direct (CMV disease) and indirect (such as invasive fungal infection, other viral infections, bacterial infection) effects on clinical outcomes. In Part 2, allo-HSCT participants at risk of CMV disease will be assessed to determine the association of host CMV-specific immunity with clinical management and outcomes over one year post allo-HSCT. The overall aims of the study are to establish if CMV infection in allo-HSCT patients are associated with poor clinical outcomes; and whether measurement of immunological functions could provide an early indicator to identify patients at risk and appropriate timing for initiation of CMV treatment.
ZYN002 is a pharmaceutically manufactured Cannabidiol that is developed as a clear gel that can be applied to the skin (called transdermal delivery). The gel will be applied to clean, dry, intact skin of the shoulders and/or upper arms. Participants from the ZYN2-CL-016 and ZYN2-CL-033 studies who meet the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria for study ZYN2-CL-017 are eligible. Parents/caregivers will apply the study gel twice daily for the 52-week treatment period.
This national Australian study will validate and implement an effective approach to real-time electronic surveillance of fungal infections in patients with blood cancers using technology based on artificial intelligence. It will establish metrics for antifungal stewardship allowing benchmarking of these programs; provide decision support for radiologist interpretation of chest imaging and improve reporting, audit and feedback practices in hospitals where these infections are managed.
Study ROR-PH-303, ADVANCE EXTENSION, is an open-label extension (OLE) study for participants with WHO Group 1 PAH who have participated in another Phase 2 or Phase 3 study of ralinepag.
The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a blood test and automated microfluidic test platform for the prenatal screening of fetal aneuploidy.
The overall goal of this research is to develop and validate standard operating procedures (SOP) to assess the human pancreas in individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and other forms of diabetes using advanced, quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) approaches.
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of upadacitinib combined with topical corticosteroids (TCS) for the treatment of adolescent and adult participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD) who are candidates for systemic therapy.
FACT 4 Child is a follow up study of mothers who participated in the Folic Acid Clinical Trial (NCT01355159) and their children at 4-6 years of age to determine the effect of high dose folic acid supplementation on social impairments associated with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs), and deficiencies in a range of executive function and emotional and behavioural problems in young children, and the risk of death.
