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 overall aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of Butantan Institute Trivalent Seasonal Influenza Vaccine in comparison with the Sanofi Trivalent Seasonal Influenza Vaccine.
Erythema Nodosum Leprosum (ENL) is a painful, debilitating complication of leprosy. Patients often require high doses of corticosteroids for prolonged periods. Thalidomide is expensive and not available in most countries. The use of corticosteroids for long periods is associated with adverse effects and mortality. It is a priority to identify alternative agents to treat ENL. Methotrexate (MTX) is a cheap, widely used medication which has been reported to be effective in ENL resistant to steroids and thalidomide.
A prospective, single-blind, parallel-group, randomised trial was conducted in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Thrid eight People with Parkinson's Disease were recruited and randomly allocated in two groups: Experimental Group (EG), that performed the balance and gait training based on games from Microsoft Xbox Kinect System ® (MXKS) supported by manual and verbal guidance (MVG) provided by a PT and a control group (CG) that performed an identical training with no MVG during the training.
This open-label, single-arm, Phase II multi-center study will enroll approximately 42 subjects and investigate the activity, pharmacokinetics and safety of ruxolitinib added to the subject's immunosuppressive regimen among infants, children, and adolescents aged ≥28 days to <18 years old with either moderate to severe treatment-naive cGvHD or SR-cGvHD. Subjects will be grouped according to their age as follows: Group 1 includes subjects ≥12y to <18y, Group 2 includes subjects ≥6y to <12y, Group 3 includes subjects ≥2y to <6y, and Group 4 includes subjects ≥28days to <2y.
The reason for this study is to see if the study drug baricitinib given orally is safe and effective in participants with JIA from 2 years to less than 18 years old.
The reason for this study is to see if the study drug baricitinib is safe and effective in the treatment of JIA in participants ages 1 to 17. This study is for participants that have been enrolled in studies I4V-MC-JAHV (NCT03773978) or I4V-MC-JAHU.
The purpose of this study is to determine if emixustat hydrochloride reduces the rate of progression of macular atrophy compared to placebo in subjects with Stargardt disease. Funding Source -- FDA OOPD
The main aim of the study is to determine if SHP611 given by injection into the spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord (intrathecal; IT) prolongs the time for children with Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) to retain the ability to move from place to place. Other aims of the study are to determine the effects of intrathecal administration of SHP611 on movement and speech functions and to learn how well SHP611 injected in the spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord is tolerated. Study participants will receive SHP611 for about 2 years with the possibility of an extended treatment period.
INTRODUCTION: Cardiovascular diseases are the main causes of death in Brazil and in the world, associated with a large number of people with physical disabilities and disability, significantly burdening public health expenditures. Some patients end up having the need to do cardiac surgeries. , and consequently suffer complications associated with the surgical process due to prolonged rest in the bed, and complications are directly related to the morbidity and mortality rate in these patients. Thus, cardiac rehabilitation has great scientific evidences that directly impacts functional capacity, quality of life and thus reducing the morbimortality rate of these patients. However, it is worth noting that there is no outpatient cardiovascular rehabilitation service linked to the single health system (SUS) in the Amazon Region, that is, involving phase III of cardiac rehabilitation with defined and structured protocols for the group of patients already mentioned. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical evolution of patients in the postoperative period of coronary artery bypass grafting and / or valve replacement (phase III), in outpatient treatment. METHODOLOGY: It is a a longitudinal study, with quantitative variables to be performed in a single center within a year (12 months). Which will evaluate the effects of phase III cardiac rehabilitation of patients undergoing cardiac surgery through an evaluation, which will evaluate heart rate variability, functional capacity by six-minute walk test, pulmonary volumes and capacities by spirometry, percutaneous strength and ventilatory muscle, MRC scale and manovacuometry, respectively, and the application of a quality of life assessment questionnaire. Subsequently, the protocol of 20 sessions will be applied and at the end the same variables will be re-evaluated. EXPECTED RESULTS: It is expected from the application of this research that the protocol suggested for the phase III cardiac rehabilitation of patients submitted to cardiac surgery will bring benefits to patients, such as improvement in heart rate variability, improvement in functional capacity, improvement in quality of life, and reduction in morbidity and mortality rates.
INTRODUCTION: Electrical impedance tomography is a tool for noninvasive monitoring of pulmonary ventilation in real time, which is used during alveolar recruitment maneuvers in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. OBJECTIVES: To identify ventilatory and hemodynamic changes during the alveolar recruitment maneuver in children with acute respiratory distress syndrome using electrical impedance tomography. METHODS: Twenty children, aged 4 to 12 years, who present a diagnosis of respiratory distress syndrome, with indication of alveolar recruitment admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit of the Santa Casa de Misericórdia Foundation of Pará will be selected. Data collection will consist of three before the alveolar recruitment maneuver, immediately after the alveolar recruitment maneuver, 2 hours after the alveolar recruitment maneuver, where the pulmonary ventilation distribution, the driving pressure, the real-time reading compliance will be analyzed. tomography of the Timpel brand, autonomic heart rate modulation through the Polar® RS800CX device, physiological variables such as heart rate, oxygen pulse saturation and blood pressure by measuring the DIXTAL multi-parameter monitor, blood oxygen pressure and the oxygen content dog. The statistical analysis will be performed in the Biostat 5.2 program, and the choice of tests will depend on the types of distributions found and the homogeneity of the respective variances.
