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.
To investigate the safety and efficacy of a dietary supplement on cellulite alleviation, fat deposits and quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to see whether apadenoson is as effective as adenosine when used as a pharmacological stress agent in myocardial SPECT-imaging (SPECT-MPI)to detect defects in the supply of blood to the heart muscle (myocardial perfusion defects). The study will also look at whether apadenoson is better tolerated than adenosine when used in SPECT-MPI.
This study is aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of medications currently used in Brazil for treatment of visceral leishmaniasis. The investigators will compare the effects of meglumine antimoniate, two formulations of amphotericin B: deoxycholate and liposomal, and a combination of meglumine plus the liposomal amphotericin B formulation. The study is designed to demonstrate the difference in efficacy measured as cure rate at six months after treatment and the safety profile based on the adverse event rate observed with each intervention.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety of reslizumab at a dosage of 3.0 mg/kg every 4 weeks for approximately 24 months in pediatric and adult patients with eosinophilic asthma as assessed by adverse events, physical examination findings, vital sign measurements, and concomitant medication usage throughout the study (every 4 weeks), clinical laboratory test results, and measurement of antidrug antibodies.
This open-label, randomized, parallel group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of obinutuzumab in combination with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone or prednisone (CHOP) chemotherapy versus rituximab (MabThera/Rituxan) with CHOP in previously untreated participants with cluster of differentiation 20 (CD20)-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Participants will be randomized to receive either obinutuzumab 1000 milligrams (mg) intravenously (IV) every 21 days or rituximab 375 milligrams per square meter (mg/m^2) IV every 21 days for 8 cycles, in addition to 6-8 cycles of CHOP chemotherapy IV every 21 days. Participants randomized to the obinutuzumab arm will receive an additional two doses on Days 8 and 15 of Cycle 1. Anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of S-1 and Cisplatin compared to 5-FU and Cisplatin in treatment of patients with metastatic diffuse gastric and gastro-esophageal junction cancer previously untreated with chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the current patterns of care for patients with hormone-receptor-positive, advanced breast cancer who have failed one prior endocrine therapy in Brazil. To investigate patient-related, disease-related and physician-related characteristics that correlate with the use of either endocrine treatment or chemotherapy in such patients. And to evaluate patients' understanding of the treatment options and their participation in the choice.
The prevalence of intestinal helminths is worldwide. This study will evaluate the tolerability of a novel food product consumed by adults residing in an area endemic for helminths.
This study was planned to provide new information regarding the role of aliskiren (with or without additional therapy with a diuretic or a Calcium channel blockers (CCB)) in elderly individuals (≥ 65 years) with systolic blood pressure (SBP) 130 to 159 mmHg, in preventing major cardiovascular (CV) events and on global measures of physical, executive and cognitive function.
This is a study to assess long-term safety and efficacy of lersivirine in patients who have completed 96 weeks of treatment with lersivirine in studies A5271015 and A5271022.
