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.
Laboratory studies suggest extubation with positive pressure because it reduces the volume of secretions filtered into the distal airway. The aim of this non inferiority study is to evaluate the safety of the extubation technique under positive pressure with respect to the traditional technique (with suction and without positive pressure in the airways).
The purpose of the main study is to describe the incidence of influenza virus and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in adults hospitalized with acute respiratory tract infection (ARTI) during the influenza/RSV season, and the purpose of the substudy is to describe the clinical and economic burden in adults hospitalized with confirmed influenza/RSV infection.
Randomized, open-label, multi-center, comparative trial to assess the efficacy and safety in immunocompromised subjects with acyclovir resistant or acyclovir susceptible mucocutaneous HSV infection, treated with pritelivir 100 mg once daily (following a loading dose of 400 mg as first dose to rapidly reach steady-state plasma concentration) or investigators choice, which can be either foscarnet 40 mg/kg every 8 hours or 60 mg/kg every 12 hours, or Cidofovir iv 5 mg/kg body weight given once weekly, or Cidofovir 1% or 3% topical applied 2 to 4 times daily, or Imiquimod 5% topical 3 times per week) (provided the drug is nationally approved).
Objective: the aim of this study is to identify risk factors associated with the development of pyogenic liver abscesses (PLA) in adult liver recipients (ALR) and to describe the experience of the Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires (HIBA) in the diagnosis and therapeutic management of these patients. Background: adult liver recipients differ from the general population with PLA as they exhibit: reconstructed biliary anatomy, recurrent hospitalizations, regular performance status and are subjected to immunosuppression. However, the scientific evidence regarding PLA developed in transplanted organs is still scarce and the management of this disease continues to be based on experience in non-transplanted patients. Methods: between 1996 and 2016, 879 adult patients underwent liver transplantation (LT) at our institution. Patients who developed PLA after LT (cases) and controls are matched according to the time from transplant to abscess in a 1 to 5 relation. The investigators performed a logistic regression model to establish PLA risk factors considering clusters for matched cases and controls. Independent risk factors will be identified using multivariate regression analysis.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a slow stepwise propofol TCI induction with Marsh model (Ke0 0.26), allows for an accurate estimation of the effect site concentration required for maintenance of the general anesthesia, with propofol and remifentanil, in adult populations older and younger than 65 years of age.
Primary Objective: To describe the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of sarilumab in patients aged 1-17 years with Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (sJIA) in order to identify the dose and regimen for adequate treatment of this population. Secondary Objective: To describe the pharmacodynamics (PD) profile, the efficacy, and the long term safety of sarilumab in patients with sJIA.
Post market surveillance registry
The aim of this study is to compare exercise capacity in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients before and after an 8 week pulmonary rehabilitation program. Patients will be randomised in two groups, one arm will received oxygen through High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) and the other group by The Venturi Mask (VM)
The purpose of this study is to collect long term safety data in subjects who are continuing to derive clinical benefit from treatment with Enzalutamide from the subjects participation in an enzalutamide clinical study sponsored by Astellas or Medivation (i.e., parent study) which has completed, at a minimum, the primary analysis or the study specified evaluation period.
This is a randomised, phase III, non-inferiority trial evaluating radiation therapy versus observation following breast conserving surgery and planned endocrine therapy in patients with stage I breast cancer of luminal A subtype defined using the Prosigna (PAM50) Assay.
