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.
Evaluation of the safety and performance of the BOBBY™ Balloon Guide Catheter (BGC) in patients with an acute ischemic stroke treatment, a sudden reduction or termination of the blood circulation of the brain, caused by a clot. Immediate treatment is needed to restore the blood circulation in the brain, performing a mechanical removal of the clot (thrombectomy). To prevent clot particles migrating in other parts of the brain circulation during the thrombectomy, balloon guiding catheters are inserted. The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the balloon guide catheter BOBBY™ by collecting information from patients, treated with a mechanical thrombectomy and the balloon guide catheter (BOBBY™) after acute ischemic stroke
This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral difelikefalin administered as a 1 mg tablet once daily compared to placebo in reducing the intensity of itch in advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with moderate-to-severe pruritus. This study is comprised of an Efficacy Assessment Phase and a Long-term Extension Phase. The Efficacy Assessment Phase includes a double-blind 12-week Treatment Period (Treatment Period 1), and the Long-term Extension Phase includes a double-blind Treatment Period (Treatment Period 2) of up to 52 weeks.
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) has significant associated morbidity and reduced quality of life. There is a significant risk of visual loss and patients also typically suffer with chronic disabling headaches. This trial has been designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new formulation of exenatide (Presendin) in the reduction of intracranial pressure (ICP) in patients with IIH.
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, open-label, single dose and multi-dose, dose-finding study with an optional open-label extension (OLE) to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of obeticholic acid (OCA) in pediatric subjects with biliary atresia with successful hepatoportoenterostomy (HPE, also known as a Kasai portoenterosomy). The OLE will continue to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of OCA. In addition, a change in vitamin A and D levels, and where possible the degree of change in liver stiffness, will be assessed during the OLE.
Assessment of the performance of multiPlus dialysate based on the serum creatinine removal 6 hours (360 min) after start of continuous veno-venous haemodialysis/ haemodiafiltration [CVVHD(F)]. multiPlus is a phosphate-containing dialysis solution for the use in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) during acute kidney injury (AKI).
This study is open to adults with liver cirrhosis caused by hepatitis B, hepatitis C or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). People can join this study if they have high blood pressure in the portal vein (main vessel going to the liver). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called Avenciguat (BI 685509) taken alone or in combination with a medicine called empagliflozin helps people with this condition. Participants take Avenciguat (BI 685509) as tablets twice a day for 8 weeks. Half of the participants with NASH who also have type 2 diabetes take empagliflozin as tablets once a day in addition to Avenciguat (BI 685509). Participants are in the study for about 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 10 times. At 2 of the visits, the doctors check the pressure in a liver vein to see whether the treatment works. This is done with a catheter (a long thin tube) and gives information about the pressure in the portal vein. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This study is designed to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of REN001 administered once daily to subjects with PMM due to mitochondrial DNA mutations (mtDNA-PMM) or nuclear DNA mutations (nDNA-PMM). Subjects with mtDNA mutations will have previously completed Study REN001-201 or participated in Study REN001-101. Subjects with nDNA mutations who enroll in this study will be REN001- naïve.
Interventional study of the effects of vibro-tactile feedback on behavioral deficits and learning during motor training in patients with sensory ataxia.
Ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction is a common issue in critically ill patients. Muscle stimulation has shown to have beneficial effects in muscle groups on the extremities. A non-invasive way to stimulate the diaphragm would be the electromagnetic stimulation but it is currently unclear if that is feasible. In this proof-of-concept trial the primary aim is to show that it is possible to induce a diaphragmatic contraction in critically ill ICU patients via an external electromagnetic stimulation of the phrenic nerve, leading to an inspiration (i) with a sufficient tidal volume (3-6 ml/kg ideal body weight) and (ii) with verifiable muscular diaphragmatic contraction through ultrasound imaging.
