IMmune checkPoint Inhibitor Related gonAdal toxiCiTy in Premenopausal Women and Men With Melanoma
Expand descriptionThis study aims to capture information regarding the effect of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment for melanoma on reproductive organ function and sex hormone levels. You may be eligible for this study if you are aged 18 years or older, you have been diagnosed with melanoma (Stage II, III or IV) and you are planning to receive ICI treatment. Additional criteria will apply dependent upon your biological sex characteristics. All participants who choose to enroll in this study will be asked to complete a series of questionnaires and provide blood at 4 of their scheduled treatment visits. These visits are anticipated to add 30 minutes to the scheduled visit time. Male participants will also be asked to provide semen samples at 2 of their scheduled treatment visits. These visits are anticipated to add an additional 30 minutes to the scheduled visit time. No additional or novel treatments will be offered to participants who choose to enroll in this study, this is an observational study only. It is hoped this research will contribute important information regarding the potential toxic effects of ICI treatment on sexual and reproductive function in patients with melanoma who are receiving ICI treatment.

SOS for Caregiver Wellbeing
Expand descriptionParents and caregivers of children who have a chronic condition carry a large care burden and are at higher risk of having mental health symptoms. This study aims to see if completion of a mental health questionnaire by parents / caregivers at or before the child's paediatric appointment can help identify any symptoms of stress, anxiety or depression. Following the questionnaire, parents / caregivers will be provided with the results of the questionnaire along with an information resource sheet. This will include information on anxiety, stress and depression, as well as different agencies they can contact to get support. Parents / caregivers will be followed up at 3 and 6 months to see if they have any changes to mental health and quality of life, and whether they accessed any support services. The primary aim for this trial is to see whether parents / caregivers find this process acceptable, and whether it can work in a busy hospital clinic.

Safety and Efficacy of MiSaver (CB Cells) for Acute Myocardial Infarction, Phase II
Expand descriptionThis trial is a Phase II, multicenter clinical study. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MiSaver, a cellular therapy product, in patients who have experienced an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Specifically, the study aims to assess the improvement in left ventricular function of the heart following the administration of MiSaver, as well as to determine the safety of using stem cell therapy in these patients. This trial will employ a single-blind design (subject-blinded), meaning that the participants will not be aware of whether they are receiving MiSaver or standard treatment, while the researchers will have this information. This design helps ensure transparency and adherence to ethical standards while also providing valuable clinical insights. By utilizing randomization, we can enhance the reliability and comparability of the study results. A portion of the participants will receive MiSaver, while the others will undergo standard treatment. This allows for a direct comparison of the two therapeutic approaches to determine their respective efficacy. The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MiSaver, in the treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). To achieve this, we will collect comprehensive participant data, including assessments of cardiac function, records of cardiac events, and quality-of-life surveys. By analyzing these data, we aim to gain a deeper understanding of the benefits and limitations of this treatment approach.

The Family Foundations Trial
Expand descriptionIn this project, researchers are exploring different ways to support the wellbeing and relationships of families with young children (0-12 years). People in regional and rural communities often live with the threat of bushfires, floods, drought, severe storms, and other extreme weather events. Some families have been affected by these disasters and are still trying to recover. Researchers will test two different ways of supporting families in regional and rural Victoria: Family Foundations (FF): An 8-session program to promote parent wellbeing, parenting partnerships, and communication. All parents/caregivers/parenting partners in the family participate in sessions delivered by a health professional online. Family Life Check-In: A brief 30-minute telephone call with a health professional to discuss family wellbeing and relationships, and identify any supports needed. The goal of this trial is to learn whether FF works to reduce mental health difficulties for regional and rural families. The main question it aims to answer is: Compared to Family Life Check-In, does Family Foundations lead to fewer mental health difficulties? Participants will: Complete an online survey before randomisation, after they have received FF or Family Life Check-In, and six months after starting the project. Take part in either Family Foundations or Family Life Check-In.

STudy of Real World vaccinE Effectiveness of maTernal RSVpreF vaccinatiON Against Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) in Hospitalised Infants in Australia (STREETON)
Expand descriptionThis Pfizer-sponsored real-world retrospective non-interventional study will be conducted within a research network comprised of independent hospitals across Australia using data collected during routine standard of care clinical encounters available in health records, supplemented with information from the official national immunisation registry, the Australian Immunisation Register. Additional data from accredited pathology laboratories will be included. There will be no active enrollment of study participants, no direct contact with study participants, and no collection of any primary data outside of the standard of care. This study will use a test negative design to evaluate real-world vaccine effectiveness of RSVpreF vaccination during pregnancy against RSV-associated outcomes in infants.
