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.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have chronic kidney disease (CKD), a progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to work properly. In people with CKD, the kidneys do not remove wastes and extra fluid from the blood as well as they should. High blood pressure makes it more likely that the CKD gets worse. The study treatment BAY3283142 is under development for treating CKD. It activates a protein called soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) that generates cGMP - a molecule that relaxes blood vessels and is thought to have beneficial effects in CKD. The participants do not benefit from this study. However, the study will provide information on how to use BAY3283142 in subsequent studies in people with CKD. As many people with CKD do also suffer from high blood pressure, this study is done in people with mild to moderate high blood pressure to safeguard the use of BAY3283142 in people with CKD in later studies. The main purpose of this study is to learn how safe different single and multiple doses of the study treatment BAY3283142 are compared to placebo in male and female participants (after menopause) with mild to moderate high blood pressure. A placebo is a treatment that looks like a medicine but does not have any medicine in it. To answer this, the researchers will compare the number of participants who have medical problems after taking BAY3283142 to those treated with placebo. Doctors keep track of all medical problems that happen in studies, even if they do not think they might be related to the study treatments. Dependent on the treatment group, the participants will either take BAY3283142 or placebo as tablet once or twice a day. Patients will take one dose for 6 days and will then be switched to a higher dose for additional 6 days. In summary, three different dose combinations consisting of two different doses each will be tested. Participants will be in the study for up to 7 weeks, including 12 treatment days (6 per dose step). They will stay in-house for 17 days starting two days before intake of the study treatment. In addition, one visit before and one visit after the in-house phase to the study site is planned. During the study, the study team will: - Check vital signs - Take blood and urine samples - Examine the participants' heart health using electrocardiogram (ECG)
This was a Phase I, single-center, randomized, controlled trial to evaluate the antipsoriatic efficacy of calcipotriol in novel formulations based on AKVANO technology as compared to marketed calcipotriol products (Daivonex® solution and cream) and to evaluate their cutaneous safety in a psoriasis plaque test
The purpose of the trial is to test how much delgocitinib enters the body over a given time period after application of delgocitinib cream in patients with moderate to severe hand eczema. Delgocitinib is a cream that suppresses specific processes in the body's response to diseases like CHE, such as inflammation. Everyone in the trial will use delgocitinib cream. The trial will last up to 7 weeks and there will be 6 visits and a phone call. There will be a screening period of up to 4 weeks, a treatment period (with blood sampling) of 11 days and a safety follow-up phone call 11 days after the last visit.
A multi-centre, randomised, controlled crossover design. The total study duration for the individual subject was approximately 9 weeks, consisting of four site visits and two 4-week test periods at home. Visits 0 and 1 could be performed on the same day. For visit 2 and 3, catheterisations were performed in a hospital setting for bladder emptying assessment and collection of urine samples (the latter only in Denmark). Visit 1 and 2 were followed by a home-use test period, followed by visit 3 which terminated the study.
The aim of this interventional but non-invasive, clinical investigation is to demonstrate the performance and safety of two new class I medical device Absorbing Hygiene Products developed by Essity. The primary objective is to demonstrate for each of the new products that they provide protection to leakages similar to their corresponding standard of care devices already used on the market. The target population for this clinical investigation are community living individuals suffering from moderate to severe incontinence, who may receive care by a care giving relative, by one or more caregivers and are current users of TENA Pants of the respective absorption level.
To enable weaning from mechanical ventilation, two different strategies may be distinguished: continuous weaning and discontinuous weaning. There is a lack of evidence of the superiority of one of both strategies is currently weak among early neurological rehabilitation patients. To the best of our knowledge, only one study including stroke patients compared different weaning strategies and showed a significantly shorter duration of mechanical ventilation during continuous than during discontinuous weaning, which is in contrast to the results of the largest weaning study with patients on medical-surgical intensive care units. In addition, further inconsistent results were reported from studies with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients, which might be due to disease duration and/or duration of prior mechanical ventilation in the acute care hospital. This small number of studies with controversial results indicates that there is a considerable need for further research. The current study intended to compare the rehabilitation outcome of early neurological rehabilitation patients, weaned by different strategies (continuous vs. discontinuous) through a matched-pair analysis.
The objective of this 3-month observational study was to assess, in 2827 adults, the benefit of NP alone or as adjunctive or maintenance care in mild acne, or as adjunctive care in subjects with moderate acne.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat vasomotor symptoms, a condition of having hot flashes. The condition is caused by hormonal changes and occurs primarily in women, but can also affect men. The study treatment, elinzanetant, is under development to treat symptoms caused by hormonal changes. It works by blocking a substance called neurokinin from sending signals to other parts of the body, which is thought to play a role in starting hot flashes. Participants of this study will be healthy and will have no benefit from administration of elinzanetant. This study, however, will provide information on how to use it in people with vasomotor symptoms. In previous studies, elinzanetant doses tested and resulting blood levels were close to the levels intended for treatment. However, in future use, it cannot always be ruled out that higher elinzanetant concentrations may occur in the blood if patients are taking certain other drugs at the same time, or take more than the recommended dose of the drug. The main purpose of this study is to learn how safe elinzanetant is when higher doses than normally used are given compared to placebo in healthy participants. A placebo is a treatment that looks like a medicine but does not have any medicine in it. To answer this, researchers will compare the number of participants who have medical problems after taking elinzanetant to those treated with placebo. Doctors keep track of all medical problems that happen in studies, even if they do not think they might be related to the study treatments. The study consists of two parts. In part 1, the participants will either take a single dose of elinzanetant or placebo by mouth dependent on the treatment group. Four different increasing doses of elinzanetant will be tested. Participants in dose group 1 and 4 will participate in part 2. About 8 days after treatment in part 1, the participants will receive a single dose of moxifloxacin and a single dose of placebo as tablet by mouth 5 days apart. Whether the participant starts with moxifloxacin or placebo is decided by chance. Moxifloxacin is used to make sure that certain changes in heart rhythm can be detected in the study. Each participant will be in the study for about 6 weeks including 1 treatment day (part 1) or for about 8 weeks including 3 treatment days (part 1 & 2). Participants of part 1 will stay in-house for 7 days. Participants of part 2 will stay in-house for another 9 days. The in-house phase starts two days before intake of the study treatment. In addition, one visit before and one visit after the in-house phase to the study site is planned. During the study, the study team will: - Do physical examinations - Check vital signs - Take blood and urine samples - Examine the participants' heart health using electrocardiogram (ECG) - Ask the participants questions about their mood and about sleepiness.
HIV CoCo is a European multi-centre, multi-country, retrospective, observational case-control study that will aim to describe clinical outcomes and identify risk factors for People Living With HIV (PLWHIV) who are co-infected with the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. The study will address two central questions: 1. Is there a particular risk for COVID-19 in PLWHIV as compared to HIV seronegative control COVID-19 cases? 2. Are there particular factors, within the group of PLWHIV, which put them at risk for a more severe COVID-19 disease course? The study will address these questions by recruiting patients co-infected with both HIV and SARS-CoV-2 and comparing them to two control groups - one group infected with SARS-CoV-2 only and another group infected with HIV only. Only deidentified, real-world retrospective data will be used for the study, collected as part of standard, routine clinical care. Additionally, this study will also look to: 1. Describe the differences in the clinical manifestation of COVID-19 in PLWHIV compared to HIV seronegative controls 2. Describe the response to treatment, including supportive care and novel therapies against COVID-19, including antiviral or immunomodulatory therapy 3. Describe the co-morbidities in PLWHIV and controls with COVID-19 4. Compare the severity of COVID-19 between PLWHIV and the COVID-19 only controls at diagnosis and hospital admission. Data will be collected about patient outcomes from COVID-19 (including hospitalisation for COVID-19, length of stay in hospital, critical care admission, ventilation/oxygenation requirements, and need for kidney replacement therapy), as well as pre-existing health conditions, and relevant blood results at COVID-19 diagnosis.
