There are about 25560 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Germany. 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.
To establish the safety and effectiveness of the Boston Scientific Cardiac Cryoablation System for treatment of symptomatic, drug refractory, recurrent, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF).
Nowadays, caesarean sections account for about 7% of all surgical procedures worldwide. Over 30% of the patients undergoing a caesarean section experience a fall of the body core temperature under 36°C during the procedure. Following a retrospective cohort design, this study aims to examine the magnitude of hypothermia in the parturient and newborn population as well as the impact and efficiency of forced-air warming on preventing it. The researchers plan to conduct a retrospective analysis of the caesarean section treatment protocol at our institution over a period of 5 months including approximately 300 patients who underwent both elective and emergency caesarean sections.
Infection of the ascitic fluid is a serious complication associated with high morbidity and mortality. This fluid is often colonized with bacteria that can cause infection of the peritoneum and possibly sepsis. Many bacteria of the human intestinal microbiome can't be cultured by standard methods; therefore it seems likely that many of the relevant bacteria are not discovered in routine diagnostics, but may be relevant to pathogenesis. Culture-independent approaches such as NGS (Next generation Sequencing) have in principle made it possible to study or prove complex microbial colonization. Because NGS is a relatively new technology, microbiological diagnostic protocols need to be further customized and refined to integrate with the standard diagnostic workflow, if necessary. For microbiological diagnostics, material is collected from the appropriate ascites patients and sent for microbiological diagnostics. Afterwards the cultural diagnostics are carried out as part of the patient care at the university hospital. In this study the investigators plan to use these samples to analyze and compare the presence of bacteria by NGS in parallel to the culture diagnostics, and then compare it to the patients' gut microbiome, to understand the possible effect of the microbiome on ascites pathogenesis and outcome.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 48-week study intervention with JNJ-73763989+JNJ-56136379+nucleos(t)ide analog (NA) regimen compared to NA alone assessed by HBsAg levels. This study is part of HepB Wings Platform Trial (PLATFORMPAHPB2001).
The study is a Phase 2, multicounty, multicenter, non-confirmatory, investigator- and subject masked, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of CFZ533 on preservation of residual pancreatic β-cell function in new onset T1DM in pediatric and young adult subjects.
Major birth defects like omphalocele are diagnosed in 3-8% of all newborns in Germany each year. Prevention and treatment quality of congenital malformations are key concerns for child health. Poor long-term outcome is more likely in the presence of associated structural or chromosomal abnormalities that occur in approximately 50-77% of these infants. Furthermore, many newborns have respiratory failure and supposedly pulmonary hypertension - another reason for increased mortality. As part of the Surveillance Unit for Rare Pediatric Conditions in Germany (Erhebungseinheit für seltene pädiatrische Erkrankungen in Deutschland), all neonatological departments receive over two years monthly reporting cards to notify the study centre of cases, which will be analysed based on anonymised questionnaires.
This is a Phase 2 open label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of multiple dose levels of SC administered ELX-02 with and without ivacaftor in patients with CF with at least one G542X allele or phenotypically similar nonsense allele. Up to 16 patients will be enrolled in the trial; up 4 patients will be homozygotes to G542X, and the remaining patients will be compound heterozygotes with G542X or phenotypically similar nonsense mutation and any Class 1 or Class 2 mutation. Each patient will receive 5 escalating doses as follows: - 0.3 mg/kg per day SC - 0.75 mg/kg per day SC - 1.5 mg/kg per day SC - An individualized dose, as high as 3.0 mg/kg per day SC, based upon the patients observed safety and tolerability, PK at previous doses and the results of laboratory tests - ELX-02 1.5 mg/kg per day SC plus 150 mg ivacaftor every 12 bid
Cystadrops® is currently indicated in adults and children from 2 years of age diagnosed with cystinosis with corneal crystal accumulation observed. However administration of Cystadrops® in patients below 2 years old could be of value for these patients and prevent the crystal deposit. It is the reason why as part of the Cystadrops® pediatric investigational plan (PIP), RECORDATI Rare Diseases committed to conduct a clinical study to assess Cystadrops® safety and efficacy in the pediatric population from 6 months to less than 2 years old.
The purpose of the MycarinGstudy is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability and long-term efficacy of rozanolixizumab in study participants with generalized myasthenia gravis (MG).
The trial was conducted as a prospective, randomized, multinational, multicenter, double-blind study in 4 parallel groups of patients.
