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.
Obesity affects an increasing proportion of the population and is associated with numerous comorbidities that cause increased morbidity and mortality. The most effective therapy for morbid obesity is metabolic bariatric surgery. Surgical numbers are increasing worldwide. Before surgery, patients must try to reduce weight conservatively in a multimodal therapy concept. In addition, numerous protocols must be collected and appointments must be organized. Postoperatively, patients are expected to receive lifelong follow-up care, which increasingly overwhelms bariatric centers. People with overweight and obesity ° I are often left largely alone with the treatment of their disease. There is a considerable gap in care here. For the care of patients with obesity and empowerment in dealing with their disease, the smart visit app from the company aycan, which is adapted to obesity patients, is to be investigated. This is designed as a pilot project with the primary endpoint of usage and satisfaction (after 3 months, key secondary endpoint after 12 months). A total of 100 patients from 3 groups (postoperative, preoperative, permanent conservative with only overweight/obesity °I) will use the app for 1 year for this purpose.
The gp-multitool.de study is a cluster-randomized controlled trial that aims to enhance evidence-based and patient-centered care for patients with multimorbidity by assessing and providing information relevant for the primary care of this patient group. This pilot study examines the feasibility of the gp-multitool.de study, i.e., intervention and evaluation in GP practices in urban and rural administrative districts in Germany.
1. Questionnaire for supraventricular tachycardia: About history and targeted diagnosis of supraventricular tachycardia 2. Extended Signal-averaged ECG for detailed P-Wave analysis and to calculate a virtual atrial electrocardiogram (ECG)
The current Standard of Care (SoC) in younger patients with Ph+ ALL is Imatinib in combination with low-dose chemotherapy, change of TKI in case of persistent MRD above 10-3 after consolidation I and indication for stem cell transplantation. The EVOLVE trial aims to answer three questions challenging the current SoC: Use of Ponatinib compared to Imatinib both in combination with low-dose chemotherapy and consolidation I (randomization I). In MRD good responders: Omit end of therapy in primary care and indication for SCT but continue therapy with TKI, chemotherapy and Blinatumomab as additional antileukemic compound (randomization II). In MRD poor responders: Omit indication for TKI change but give instead Blinatumomab followed by end of therapy in primary care and indication for SCT (non-randomized).
The objective of this trial is to compare two different commercially available left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) devices in patients with non-valvular Atrial fibrillation/ atrial flutter (AF) at increased risk for stroke with regard to safety and efficacy. The investigators hypothesize that LAAO using the LAmbre occlusion device (Lifetech Scientific, Shenzhen, China) is non-inferior to LAAO using the AMPLATZER Amulet occlusion device (Abbott Medical, Chicago, ILL, USA) with regards to the primary endpoint, which is peri-device leak (PDL) size 3 months after LAAO, as assessed with transesophageal echocardiography (TOE) in patients with non-valvular AF.
The study aims to comprehensively introduce Long-read Genome sequencing (LR-GS) based genetic testing into clinical routine. In order to demonstrate the superiority of untargeted LR-GS over Short-read Genome sequencing (SR-GS) to establish firm genetic diagnoses, the investigators will rely on a multi-center "Translate Nationale Aktionsbündnis für Menschen mit Seltenen Erkrankungen" (Translate National Action Alliance for People with Rare Diseases Germany, TNAMSE) cohort of unsolved patients with neurological, neurodevelopmental, and imprinting disorders that is expectedly enriched for complex genomic variation. Within the framework of genomDE, the investigators will then implement, for the first time, LR-GS in the diagnostic work-up of a prospective cohort of patients with a broad range of clinical indications including rare diseases and cancer predisposition.
This EPSS will determine the vaccinee reporting rates (RRs) of suspected ADRs following routine vaccination with VaxigripTetra® and Efluelda® respectively, during the NH influenza season 2023/24. The primary objective of this surveillance is to estimate the vaccinee reporting rate (RR) of suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs) occurring within 7 days following routine vaccination with VaxigripTetra® and Efluelda® respectively, during the Northern Hemisphere (NH) influenza season 2023/24. Study duration per participant 2 months (including 6 weeks for VC distribution 2 weeks for vaccinee reporting) following the first vaccination
The goal of this registry is to evaluate the semibranch in branched endovascular aortic repair, which is a new tool in endovascular branched aortic repair.
This trial evaluates the effects (e.g. on quality of life, weight) of NORTASE® compared to standard care of patients who have undergone gastrectomy.
This is a multinational, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group Phase 2, 3-arm study in adult participants with moderate to severe AD who are inadequately controlled with topical therapies or for whom such topical therapies are inadvisable and who are candidates for systemic therapy. Participants will be randomized to receive SAR444656 dose 1, SAR444656 dose 2 or matching placebo. Participants who meet inclusion/exclusion criteria will be stratified for randomization by severity of AD (moderate [baseline EASI score <22] versus severe [baseline EASI score ≥22]). The total duration of study is approximately 24 weeks, including 1 to 4 weeks for screening, 16 weeks for double-blind study treatment and 4 weeks for follow-up.
