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.
End-stage chronic kidney disease is associated with the condition of chronic inflammation. Patients on hemodialysis are known to be predisposed to several factors that predispose to inflammation: dialysis membranes, central venous catheters, oxidative stress, fluid overload, sodium overload, uraemic toxins. Propolis, a natural resin produced by bees from plant materials, has anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and anti-oxidant properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of Brazilian green propolis extract on inflammation in hemodialysis patients.
The aims of this study will be to evaluate if a Lower Level Laser Therapy (LLLT): (1) enhances the levels of important pro-inflammatory chemokines involved in the bone remodeling process; (2) increases the rate of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) on human subjects.
This is a randomized, open-label, single-institution trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of a spray skin protector in preventing moist desquamation caused by radiotherapy treatment. This technology, spray skin protection, depending on the manufacturer, is primarily intended to prevent or reduce contact dermatitis. However, this study will be evaluated for use in preventing moist desquamation caused by ionizing radiation. The comparing agent will be a moisturizer, agreed upon at the local Institution of the study for use in the prevention of radiodermatitis. As secondary objectives: describe adverse events, diarrhea, pain and pruritus. The study will be conducted at the radiotherapy outpatient clinic of the Cancer Hospital I (HCI) of National Cancer Institute (INCA) in Brazil.
TEAM-Br is a randomized, prospective, cost-utility study comparing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) versus surgical aortic vale replacement in Brazil. The study is sponsored by the national Minister of Health, through PROADI-SUS (Programa de Apoio ao Desenvolvimento Institucional do SUS).
Study consisted of an open-label, safety run-in part and a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2/3 part. In the Phase 2/3 part, the study was evaluated whether bintrafusp alfa in combination with the current standard of care (SoC) (gemcitabine plus cisplatin) improves overall survival (OS) in chemotherapy and immunotherapy-naïve participants with locally advanced or metastatic Biliary Tract Cancer (BTC) compared to placebo, gemcitabine and cisplatin.
The aim of this study is to prospectively collect clinical data to confirm the safety and clinical performance of Neodent Titanium Base Abutment and Pro PEEK Abutment in daily dental practice setting, by means of a randomized clinical study of prosthetic rehabilitation using these devices. A total of 48 healed implant sites (at least 4 months post-extraction) shall be included during the sample enrollment (24 patients), which will be randomly divided into two groups, so that each patient receives one implant from each group (removal and non-removal of the abutment placed at the time of surgery). Patients will be followed for 24 months after implant loading. It is expected that there is no difference in peri-implant bone level change between the two treatment groups.
Randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, multicenter study to assess efficacy, safety, and tolerability of oral tropifexor & licogliflozin combination therapy and each monotherapy, compared with placebo for treatment of adult patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis.
Study Design: A randomized, multicenter, national, phase II clinical trial aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of self-care promotion using a multifaceted strategy based on sending text messages(SMS)to patients with heart failure. Methodological quality: - Central randomization with allocation concealment; - Decision committee for blind outcome assessment; - Intention-to-treat analysis
The open-label Phase Ib portion of this study will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of ipatasertib in combination with palbociclib and fulvestrant to identify a dose of ipatasertib that can be combined with palbociclib and fulvestrant in the Phase III portion. The randomized Phase III portion of this study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and patient-reported outcome (PRO) objectives of ipatasertib + palbociclib + fulvestrant compared with placebo + palbociclib + fulvestrant in patients with HR+ HER2-, locally advanced unresectable or metastatic breast cancer who had relapsed during adjuvant endocrine therapy or progressed during the initial 12 months of first-line endocrine therapy in locally advanced unresectable or metastatic breast cancer.
Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is one of the main causes of patient and family dissatisfaction, which may delay the onset of oral intake and postpone discharge. In pediatric patients, the incidence of PONV is high, and in some studies it can reach values of 70%. Strabismus surgery is considered an independent risk factor for PONV. Palonosetron is a second generation antiemetic drug, 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor antagonist, with a long half-life, which allows single dose administration and has been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting, and has been used with satisfactory results in the prophylaxis of PONV in adult and pediatric patients. Studies involving palonosetron are still scarce.
