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 trial is conducted in Europe, North America and South America. The aim of this trial is to investigate the clinical efficacy of NNC0109-0012, a human monoclonal antibody, compared to placebo when administered as weekly s.c. (subcutaneous, under the skin) injections to patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are inadequate responders to anti-TNFa biologics and are on a stable background of methotrexate (MTX) therapy.
Nowadays features for the diagnosis of delirium are: 1. Disturbance of consciousness (i.e. reduced clarity of environment awareness) with reduced ability to focus, sustain or shift attention; 2. A change in cognition (such as memory deficit, disorientation, language disturbance) or the development of a perceptual disturbance that is not better accounted for by a pre-existing or evolving dementia; 3. The disturbance develops over a short period of time (usually hours to days) and its severity fluctuates during the course of the day; 4. There is evidence from the history, physical examination, or laboratory findings that the disorder is caused by the direct physiological consequences of a general medical condition, substance intoxication or substance withdrawal. Treatment of underlying clinical disease is important to remit the delirium. However, these procedures alone are not enough to remit the delirium early and to prevent sequels. There is a need for a specific and faster strategy to treat the delirium. The investigators want to test the hypothesis that an Anticholinesterase Inhibitor (donepezil) can reduce the duration of the delirium.
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that at least one dose (0.5 mg followed by 0.25 mg) of fingolimod is superior to glatiramer acetate 20 mg SC in reducing the ARR up to 12 months in patients with relapsing-remitting MS
In the present study, the investigators propose a conversion scheme with 50% reduction in CNI dosage until adjustment of everolimus dosage, in order to reach a trough blood level of 6-10 ng/mL, thus avoiding overimmunosuppression or alternatively breakthrough rejection episodes. The hypothesis of this study is to demonstrate that the therapeutic regimen with Myfortic® and Certican® significantly improves renal function compared with the standard regimen of CNI.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate no excess risk of cardiovascular (CV) composite events exists following long term treatment with TAK-875 compared with placebo.
There is a rapidly-growing need to identify evidence-based, safe, and effective co-treatment regimens for HIV-related tuberculosis (TB) among patients who require protease inhibitor (PI)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART). This study compared three alternative co-treatment options among participants in high TB endemic resource-constrained settings, in which one co-treatment option explores if an additional anti-HIV drug needs to be used when patients are being treated with a PI together with rifabutin-based anti-TB treatment.
This research project is about a physical activity intervention in pediatric outpatients to try control and prevent heart diseases such as hypertension, obesity, high cholesterol.
The goal of this trial is to test the impact of a step-wise approach for catheter ablation of recurrent ventricular tachycardia, (irregular heart rhythms that originate in the bottom chambers of the heart), in patients with a previous heart attack for whom catheter ablation is clinically indicated.
The primary goal of the Phase III SCATE trial is to compare 30 months of alternative therapy (hydroxyurea) to standard care (observation) in children with sickle cell anemia and conditional (170 - 199cm/sec) Transcranial Doppler (TCD) velocities. For the alternative regimen (hydroxyurea) to be declared superior to the standard treatment regimen (observation), the hydroxyurea-treated group must have a three-fold reduction in the incidence of conversion to abnormal TCD velocities (≥ 200 cm/sec), compared to the standard treatment arm.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the non-inferiority clinical efficacy of two different drug associations in the treatment of acute cutaneous rash in children between 2 and 12 years old.
