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.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the acute response to infection with and recovery from the virus called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Some people know this virus by the name "coronavirus." It can cause the disease called COVID-19. The information gained from the study can be used to help develop better tests for SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 disease and may help in developing future vaccines, other prevention strategies, and treatments.
Observational, prospective, multicentre, international, non-profit, investigator-driven, outcome and diagnostic accuracy study performed in Emergency Departments. The study will evaluate the performance of diagnostic algorithms integrating pre-test probability assessment with a risk score, focus cardiac ultrasound and D-dimer, to rule-in/out acute aortic syndromes. For each patient, the outcome will be established after review of hospital and 30-day follow-up data. In participating centers, an acute aortic syndrome will be considered to be ruled out without advanced imaging by a D-dimer level lower than 500 ng per milliliter, in patients with a low clinical pre-test probability assessed using the aortic dissection detection (ADD) risk score. Using outcome data, the study will primarily assess the accuracy and efficiency of this diagnostic rule-out protocol (prospective management study). The study will also evaluate the performance of alternative rule out strategies based on a different clinical score and on a D-dimer cutoff adjusted on patient's age.
Several recent studies point to the possibility of the new coronavirus (SARS-Cov2), which currently causes pandemic COVID-19, to infiltrate the central nervous system (CNS) and cause primary damage to neural tissues, increasing the morbidity and mortality of these patients. A pathophysiological hypothesis for insulting the CNS would be the impairment of cerebral compliance (CC), because elevation of intracranial pressure (ICP), but due to the invasive nature of the methods available for ICP evaluation, this hypothesis has so far not been verified. Recently, a noninvasive technique was developed to evaluate CC (B4C sensor), making it possible to analyse CC in patients outside the neurosurgical environment. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to assess the presence of CC impairment in patients with COVID-19, and observe potential influences of this syndrome on cerebral hemodynamics.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the addition of GSK3359609 to pembrolizumab in combination with 5FU-platinum based chemotherapy improves the efficacy of the pembrolizumab combination with 5FU-platinum based chemotherapy in participants with recurrent or metastatic (R/M) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). This randomized, double-blinded, Phase II/III study will compare the combination of GSK3359609 with pembrolizumab and 5FU-platinum chemotherapy to placebo in combination with pembrolizumab and 5FU-platinum chemotherapy in participants with recurrent or metastatic HNSCC of the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx or larynx.
This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of lenvatinib in combination with pembrolizumab versus standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy, and to also assess the safety and efficacy of lenvatinib monotherapy in participants with recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC) that have progressed after platinum therapy and a programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) or anti-programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor. The primary hypothesis is that lenvatinib + pembrolizumab is superior to SOC chemotherapy with respect to ORR per modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 as assessed by blinded independent central review.
The purpose of the study is to learn whether the study drug (capmatinib) helps to control lung cancer better compared to a single agent chemotherapy (docetaxel) and whether it is safe when given to patients suffering from a particular type of lung cancer. This type of cancer is called non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with certain specific genetic alterations (called mutations) of a gene called MET, within a specific part of the gene called exon 14.
The primary objectives are: Pooled Phase 3 (Cohort 1) and Phase 2 (Cohort 1A) - To evaluate the virologic efficacy of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo in reducing viral load of SARS-CoV-2 - To evaluate the clinical efficacy of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo, as measured by death or mechanical ventilation Phase 1/2 (Cohort 1) - To exclude futility of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo, as measured by death or mechanical ventilation - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo
The aim of this study is to assess the effect of a home-based exercise training during social isolation due to covid-19 pandemic in patients who undertook bariatric surgery.
This is an open label phase II, single-arm, biomarker multi-institutional pilot study. Men with progressive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have been treated with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and at least one prior second generation AR-targeted therapy (either abiraterone or enzalutamide) will be enrolled in this study. All patients will receive treatment with testosterone cypionate 400 mg, intramuscular, every 28 days for a maximum of 3 cycles or limiting toxicity, if it occurs before the end of the scheduled therapy. After 3 cycles of BAT (12 weeks), patients may continue receiving this therapy off study at the discretion of the treating physician, if clinical/radiographic benefit. During the study period, patients will have plasma collected for cell-free tumor DNA analysis and CTC ARV7 status and also will perform 68Gallium-PSMA PET at baseline and then every 6 weeks.
This randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of maternal immunization with RSVpreF against medically attended lower respiratory tract illness (MA-LRTI) in infants.
