To determine if the regorafenib and nivolumab combination (RegoNivo) improves overall survival compared with current standard chemotherapy options in refractory AGOC.

This study is being done to see if a drug called disitamab vedotin, alone or with pembrolizumab, works to treat HER2 expressing urothelial cancer. It will also test how safe the drug is for participants. Participants will have cancer that has spread in the body near where it started (locally advanced) and cannot be removed (unresectable) or has spread through the body (metastatic). It will also study what side effects happen when participants get the drug. A side effect is anything a drug does to your body besides treating the disease.

Non-Invasive ventilation (NIV) is a life saving intervention for patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). Some patients are not able to tolerate the NIV intervention and ultimately fail, requiring the use of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) and intubation. Sedation may improve a patient's NIV tolerance. However, this practice has not been adopted by intensivists as the risk of over-sedation resulting in respiratory depression, inability to protect the airway, and inadvertent need for intubation are all large deterrents of sedative use in NIV. The Non-invasive Ventilation and Dexmedetomidine in Critically Ill Adults: a Vanguard Pragmatic Randomized Controlled Trial (inDEX) is looking to evaluate the effectiveness of dexmedetomidine compared to placebo in reducing non-invasive ventilation failures in patients admitted to the hospital with acute respiratory failure. The results from this pilot trial, will subsequently inform a large, pragmatic, powered trial to definitively address the question.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of Deucravacitinib in participants who have previously been enrolled in a Deucravacitinib Phase 2 study for moderate to severe Crohn's disease or moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of a 12-week cycling during hemodialysis program on hemodialysis-induced myocardial stunning in adult individuals receiving hemodialysis.

This multinational, multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled, open label Phase 3 study is designed to investigate and confirm the benefits and risks associated with the PSMA-targeted antibody, 177Lu DOTA rosopatamab administered together with Standard of Care (SoC), as compared to the best SoC alone. The phase 3 will be conducted in patients with metastatic castration-resistant PC (mCRPC) that expresses PSMA and has progressed despite prior treatment with a novel androgen axis drug (NAAD).

This study is open to adults with hidradenitis suppurativa who took part in a previous clinical study of a medicine called spesolimab. Participants who completed treatment can join this study. The purpose of this study is to find out how safe spesolimab is and whether it helps people with hidradenitis suppurativa in the long-term. Participants are in this study for about 2 years and 4 months. For 2 years, participants visit the study site every 2 weeks to get spesolimab injections under the skin. At study visits, doctors check the severity of participants' hidradenitis suppurativa and collect information on any health problems of the participants.

Urinary tract infections (UTI) are commonly encountered in children, with 7% diagnosed with at least one UTI by the age of 19 years. The evidence for treatment of uncomplicated UTI is clear; oral antibiotics are as good as intravenous (IV) antibiotics, usually for a total of 7 days. Complicated UTIs (cUTIs) on the other hand, are common reasons for hospital admissions for IV antibiotics and constitute a major burden for healthcare systems. There is considerable variation in care for children who present with UTI and have complicating features such as vomiting, dehydration, urological abnormalities or have a previous history of UTI. Australian and international guidelines lack clear, evidence-based recommendations to guide treatment in this group. Without gold standard evidence, these children will continue to receive unnecessary IV antibiotics, longer hospital stays and poorer health outcomes. This multicentre, non-inferiority randomised trial will investigate if One dose - single dose of IV followed by 2 days oral antibiotics is as non-inferior to Three doses for children with UTI and co-existing complicating factors presenting to the Emergency Department (ED). In other words, this study will compare if a single dose of IV antibiotics plus two days oral antibiotics is as clinically effective as 3 doses antibiotics in resolving UTI symptoms at 72 hours after the first dose of IV antibiotics, for complicated UTIs in children presenting to the ED. All participants will receive a total of 7 days of antibiotics for the complicated urinary tract infection. If 1 dose IV and 2 days oral antibiotics is found to be as good as 3 days, the duration of IV antibiotics for complicated UTI can be reduced along with avoidance of the inherent risks of unnecessary hospital admission by administering a single IV dose in an outpatient/ED setting. On the other hand if a single IV dose results in prolonged symptoms or treatment failure, this will inform practice for the proportion of children who have a single dose of IV antibiotics in the ED and are sent home on oral antibiotics. Regardless of the outcome, this trial will inform clinical practice for complicated UTI to improve health outcomes for this group.

The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy of rozanolixizumab as measured by seizure freedom, change in cognitive function, use of rescue medication, onset of seizure freedom and to assess safety and tolerability.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and activity of ICM-203, a recombinant adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector that expresses a therapeutic gene that promotes cartilage formation, reduces joint inflammation and pain, as well as improves joint physical function, by injecting escalating doses of ICM-203 or matching placebo into the knee of subjects with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis (OA).
