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 randomized, parallel group, double-blind, placebo controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ocrelizumab in participants with primary progressive multiple sclerosis. Eligible participants will be randomized 2 : 1 to receive either ocrelizumab or placebo.
This randomized, double-blind, parallel group study will compare the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous (sc) versus intravenous (iv) administration of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis. Patients will be randomized to receive either RoActemra/Actemra 162 mg sc weekly plus iv placebo every 4 weeks, or RoActemra/Actemra 8 mg/kg iv every 4 weeks plus sc placebo weekly during the double-blind period from baseline to Week 24. The double-blind period will be followed by a 72-week open-label treatment with some switching of sc and iv administration. No placebo will be administered in the open-label phase. Patients will continue on their stable dose of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) throughout the study. Anticipated time on study treatment is 2 years.
This is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, phase 3 study evaluating orteronel (TAK-700) plus prednisone compared with placebo plus prednisone in the treatment of men with progressive, chemotherapy-naive, metastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC)
This multi-center, randomized, double blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of RO4917838 (bitopertin) in patients with persistent, predominant negative symptoms of schizophrenia. Patients, on stable treatment with antipsychotics, will be randomized to receive daily oral doses of RO4917838 or matching placebo for 52 weeks, followed by an optional treatment extension for up to 3 years.
The investigators do not know which approach to treatment of non-severe high blood pressure in pregnancy is better for women and babies. In the CHIPS Trial, the investigators seek to determine whether 'less tight' control (aiming for a diastolic blood pressure [dBP] of 100 mmHg), compared with 'tight' control (aiming for a diastolic blood pressure [dBP] of 85 mmHg) can decrease the risks of adverse baby outcomes without increasing the risk of problems for the mother.
Leucine supplementation is widely known for promoting strong influence on skeletal muscle remodeling. This study aims to evaluate the effect of leucine supplementation on disuse-induced skeletal muscle atrophy.
The first years of life are considered essential to child development, as there is greater brain growth and formation of more neural connections. Therefore, the stimulation of children in various fields of development becomes relevant to the acquisition of knowledge and skills.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of LY2189265 in comparison to Insulin Glargine, both in combination with Insulin Lispro (plus or minus Metformin), in participants with Type 2 Diabetes treated with 1 or 2 injections of insulin.
Intestinal absorption of levothyroxine (LT4) tablets depends on its dissolution in gastric acid secretion, which is reduced after bariatric interventions. Impaired LT4 absorption due to low gastric dissolution has been reported in patients with atrophic or chronic gastritis. The objective of this study is to evaluate the absorption of LT4 tablets in morbidly obese patients before and after Roux-en-Y bariatric surgery.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of LCP-Tacro (tacrolimus) Tablets administered once-a-day compared to Prograf (tacrolimus) Capsules twice-a-day as immunosuppression for the prevention of organ rejection in newly transplanted adult kidney transplant recipients. Patients will be treated for a 12 month study period followed by a 12 month, blinded extension treatment period To show that LCP-Tacro Tablets are clinically similar to Prograf Capsules in the prevention of acute rejection.
