There are about 10004 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Brazil. 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.
This is a phase l, single arm, prospective open, dose-escalation study in patients with relapsed or refractory CD19-positive B cell malignancies (ALL, NHL, CLL). The trial will include adult and pediatric patients. There will be three individual cohorts, defined by disease biology: pediatric ALL and aggressive pediatric NHL (Cohort 1), adult ALL (Cohort 2) and adult NHL/CLL (Cohort 3).
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intrathecal administration of autologous mesenchymal stem cells in participants with subacute spinal cord injury.
Double-blind Superiority Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial. Objective of the study: To evaluate the effectiveness of photobiomodulation using the LED board in the prevention of peripheral neuropathy in the lower limbs in women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy at the Cancer Hospital III of the National Cancer Institute (HCIII/INCA).
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a serious, progressive disease that causes pulmonary arterial pressure, significantly affecting functional capacity and quality of life. Over the last few years, knowledge in pulmonary hypertension has evolved consistently and significantly. New diagnostic and treatment algorithms were combined based on the results of several clinical studies that showed the usefulness of new tools, as well as the effectiveness of new drugs as well as non-pharmacological treatment. The new guidelines felt the benefits of physical exercise in individuals with PAH, with promising results in improving symptoms, exercise capacity, peripheral muscle function and quality of life. With the COVID 19 pandemic, the complex scenario was for world health, and social distancing made it impossible to carry out individual outpatient rehabilitation, in groups and in person, indicating the need for rehabilitation programs, including physical training, to be adapted to the domicile. New alternative modes of pulmonary rehabilitation include home-based models and the use of telehealth. Telerehabilitation is the provision of rehabilitation services at a distance, using information and communication technologies. To date, there has been no evaluation of the clinical efficacy or safety of telerehabilitation in the population affected by PAH.
The purpose of this study if to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CDE100 in the Treatment of Menstrual Cramp Pain Associated With Primary Dysmenorrhea.
AR is the most common respiratory disease worldwide and is clinically defined by the presence of nasal symptoms induced by exposure to allergens, particularly nasal obstruction and pruritus, runny nose and sneezing. The treatment purpose is to prevent or alleviate symptoms as safely and effectively as possible. Above all, it is recommended that patients avoid contact with allergens to which they are sensitive. However, this is often not enough, and pharmacological interventions are often required. H1 antihistamines (anti-H1) are considered first-line drugs in the treatment of AR1. These drugs effectively relieve symptoms of the immediate phase of AR, such as nasal pruritus, sneezing, runny nose and associated eye symptoms, and partially the nasal blockage characteristic of the late phase of the disease. Due to their excellent safety profile and therapeutic advantages in the treatment of AR, second-generation anti-H1 drugs, such as levocetirizine, should always be prioritized over older compounds in all age groups1. The combined administration of an antihistamine and an oral decongestant was shown to b more effective than the administration of an antihistamine alone for the relief of AR-associated nasal obstruction1. Levocetirizine is an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) registered in the country as a monodrug for oral administration at a dose of 5mg. Pseudoephedrine is not marketed as a monodrug for oral use in our area, but it is registered in FDC with antihistamines, which is why there is no comparator arm treating with pseudoephedrine only. These products are widely used and their efficacy and safety are well known in daily clinical practice in the proposed indication. Once the absence of a pharmacokinetic interaction between levocetirizine and pseudoephedrine has been confirmed in relative bioavailability studies (RBA), this phase 3 study will be conducted in order to demonstrate the superiority of FDC levocetirizine 5mg / pseudoephedrine 240mg over levocetirizine 5mg administered alone in the symptomatic treatment of AR, particularly with regard to nasal obstruction. The registration seeks to provide a new effective and safe therapeutic option to address these cases.
Adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP) have limitations to perform daily routine activities. The use of educational strategies associated to an approach based on motor learning principles was found to be effective in promoting motor outcomes in individuals with CP. The aim of the present study is to investigate the effectiveness of an intensive, goal-directed training associated with education for parents and adolescents in promoting the daily functioning of adolescents with CP. A randomized clinical trial, with 20 adolescents with CP, aged between 12 and 17 years and 11 months, and their respective caregivers. Adolescents will be randomly allocated into one of two groups: (a) intensive training of functional goals with adolescents or (b) intensive functional goal training with adolescents, including parenting and adolescent education strategies.
Despite the good clinical results and advantages of using autogenous grafts, such as subepithelial connective grafts and free gingival grafts, the removal of grafts from the palate can result in greater postoperative morbidity. The objective of the present study will be to perform a clinical evaluation of the effect of ozonated oil on the healing of palatal wounds, after the removal of free gingival grafts, to be used in the post-extraction sockets, with the purpose of preserving the alveolar ridge. This is a prospective longitudinal clinical trial, being a patient-centered, double-blind, randomized by lottery, placebo- controlled study. The groups will be divided as follows: 1) EGL Group (control): after the removal of the EGL, the palatal wound will be treated with non-ozonized sunflower oil (placebo), applied once a day, for seven days. days; 2) EGL + Oz Group (test): after removal of the EGL, the palatal wound will be treated with ozonated sunflower oil with a peroxide index between 510 - 625 meq/kg (Oleozon®, São Paulo, Brazil), applied once a day, for seven days. The clinical evaluation and the healing process will be evaluated through the remaining scar area (RSA), Epithelialization (E) and Tissue Edema (TE). Assessments will be performed at baseline (after EGL removal) and at 3, 7, and 14 days. Measurement of levels of Malondialdehyde (MDA) and 4-Hydroxinonenal (4-HNE) for oxidative stress will be performed at days 3 and 7. Quality of life questionnaire (OHIP-14) and pain scale (VAS) will be applied. The data will initially be tested for normality by the Shapiro-Wilk test. If the data are parametric, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) can be applied, but if they are non-parametric, the Kruskal-Wallis test can be applied, followed by Dunns, for comparison between groups. The significance level will be set at 5%.
Although CRE infection after OLT have a dramatic impact on patient survival and several implementations have been proposed (i.e. preventive strategies or targeted surgical prophylaxis), a standardized approach in colonized patients is still missing. The investigators recently developed and internally validated a bed-side score to stratify the risk of CRE infection in OLT recipients colonized by CRE. The goal of this pre/post observational study is to investigate the impact on all-cause 90-day mortality in OLT recipients colonized with CRE using such score (CRECOOLT score) for the systematic evaluation of CRE infection risk. The secondary objectives are: - To analyse days of therapy with anti-CRE antibiotic regimens in patients with and without systematic evaluation of CRE infection risk, according to clinical practices. - To evaluate rates of documented CRE infections and their relapses with selection of further resistance in patients with and without systematic evaluation of CRE infection risk. - To evaluate the length of hospital, ICU stay and rates of hospital readmission in patients with and without systematic evaluation of CRE infection risk.
Background: Autonomic system modification is an established therapeutic approach that has been increasingly used for the treatment of vagal-related symptomatic bradycardia, such as cardio-inhibitory vasovagal syncope1-12. Although convincing results had been reported from small populations, a large randomized study providing robust evidence on the efficacy of this approach has not yet been performed. Hypothesis: Cardiac autonomic system modification is effective for the treatment of vagal-related symptomatic bradycardia, and is associated better clinical results as compared to placebo.
