There are about 4010 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Argentina. 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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of JNJ-53718678 on the development of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) lower respiratory tract infection (LRTIs) in adult hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients with RSV upper RTI.
Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a benralizumab in patients with moderate to very severe COPD with a history of frequent COPD exacerbations and elevated peripheral blood eosinophils (≥300/μL). Eligible patients must have a history of ≥2 moderate and/or severe COPD exacerbations in the previous year despite receiving triple (ICS/LABA/LAMA) background therapy for at least 3 months and ICS-based dual inhaled treatment for the remainder of the year. Eligible patients must also have an elevated blood eosinophil count. The treatment period will be of variable duration and will continue until the last patient has the opportunity to complete a minimum of 56 weeks, at which point all patients will complete the study. The primary endpoint will be analyzed at Week 56.
A quasi-experimental design where internal medicine residents in a high complexity hospital were assessed after a 24-hour shift for cognitive impairment by a trained neurologist.
Investigate the efficacy of the inercial Flywheel training protocol in modifying the architecture and function of the hamstrings in patients with a history of structural muscle injury vs conventional training. The researchers hypothesize that inercial Flywheel training protocol will be a useful strategy in the modification of the architecture and function of the hamstring in patients with a history of indirect structural muscle injury and decrease the recurrence.
This is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of IgPro20 (subcutaneous Ig) treatment in adult subjects with dermatomyositis (DM). The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of IgPro20 subcutaneous (SC) doses in comparison to placebo in adult subjects with DM, as measured by responder status based on Total Improvement Score (TIS) assessments.
There are four species of intestinal worms collectively known as soil-transmitted helminthiasis (STH): Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator americanus (hookworms), Ascaris lumbricoides (roundworms), and Trichuris trichiura (whipworms). These parasites affect over two billion people and contribute to significant morbidity and disability, especially in high risk groups, for example children, agricultural workers and pregnant women. In children, STH are associated with impaired nutritional status evidenced by stunting, thinness and underweight. As is the case in most Latin America, STH are a public health problem in Honduras. The World Health Organization (WHO) informs that more than 2.5 million children (under 15 years of age) in the country are at risk of infection. To control these infections Honduras has established a national deworming program that operates since 2001 but despite these efforts, the prevalence of STH infections remains unacceptably high. This is especially true in rural communities where prevalence can be as high as 70% of the children population. Ivermectin (IVM) in combination with albendazole (ALB) has demonstrated the capacity to improve efficacy compared to any of these drugs in monotherapy; the efficacy is however, still inadequate in terms of cure rate, although egg reduction rates are significant. The purpose of the current trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of 3 experimental regimens for the treatment of infections by Trichuris trichiura in children in comparison with the current standard of practice in Mass Drug Administration (MDA) campaigns. The experimental regimens will explore the effect of multiple day regimens and high dose ivermectin. Treatment arms: - Group 1: single dose of ALB 400 mg. (active control arm). N:39 - Group 2: single dose ALB 400mg + IVM 600µg/Kg. N: 57 - Group 3: daily dose ALB 400mg for 3 consecutive days. N:24 - Group 4: daily dose ALB 400mg + IVM 600µg for 3 consecutive days. N:57 Total Study Population: 177
This project will develop and assess the feasibility and acceptability of a urine-based assay to monitor adherence to Mass Drug Administration (MDA) campaigns within Soil-transmitted helminthiasis (STH) control programs, evaluating the urine and serum pharmacokinetics of ALBENDAZOLE (ABZ) and its metabolites across a variety of food/fast conditions, age, gender and body weight. The final goal is to obtain a field ready tool for the measurement of adherence to anthelmintic treatment at a community level that serves as a coverage/adherence indicator and a reference standard for other monitoring tools.
CARFARE (CARDIOMETABOLIC RISK FACTORS REGISTRY) is a registry done in the context of a cardiovascular primary prevention program of the Cardiometabolic Unit Officia of the Cardiology Department of the Austral University Hospital. The structured and sequential evaluation include measurement of anthropometric parameters (body mass index, BMI), laboratory with metabolic profile, baseline electrocardiogram, blood pressure (BP) measurement, arterial stiffness, subclinical atherosclerosis screening in the carotid and ileo-femoral territories using echo-doppler, echocardiogram, and ergometry test.
The main purpose of this study is to compare the overall survival (OS) of nivolumab plus ipilimumab versus standard of care (SOC) (sorafenib or lenvatinib) in all randomized participants with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have not received prior systemic therapy.
Phase III, multicenter, randomized, open, controlled clinical trial. A study designed as phase III, in 120 patients with chronic renal failure in the pre-dialysis stage, evaluate efficacy and safety of Hemax PFS® (PFS: prefilled syringes) vs the innovator erythropoietin alfa product (Eprex®).
