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 primary objective is to estimate global response rate. Clinical, microbiological and global response rates and its 95% confidence intervals will be computed. No hypotheses will be tested.
Study to determine if men from around the world prefer sildenafil to tadalafil.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of fesoterodine on overactive bladder symptom improvement when added to ongoing alpha blocker treatment.
The intraabdominal fat is associated with insulin resistance, a condition that is in the basis of diabetes, metabolic syndrome and some cardiovascular diseases. It is not clear whether it is the origin of it or a surrogate marker only. We intend to compare the effects of bariatric surgery with versus without omentectomy in morbidly obese people intended to go through bariatric surgery, accessing insulin sensitivity by metabolic tests. If the visceral fat is causative of insulin resistance, its surgical removal (omentectomy) might lead to improvement of insulin action, as seen in animal studies and in one study with morbidly obese human volunteers.
This 4 arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 4 neoadjuvant treatment regimens in female patients with locally advanced, inflammatory or early stage HER2 positive breast cancer. Before surgery, patients will be randomized to one of 4 treatment arms, to receive 4 cycles of a)Herceptin + docetaxel b)Herceptin + docetaxel + pertuzumab c)Herceptin + pertuzumab or 4)pertuzumab + docetaxel. Pertuzumab will be administered at a loading dose of 840mg iv, then 420mg iv 3-weekly, Herceptin at a loading dose of 8mg/kg iv then 6mg/kg 3-weekly, and docetaxel at a dose of 75mg/m2 escalating to 100mg/m2 3-weekly. During the entire pre- and post-surgery period all patients will receive adequate chemotherapy as per standard of care, as well as any surgery and/or radiotherapy as required. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
This 2-arm study will investigate the safety and tolerability of oseltamivir for the treatment of influenza in immunocompromised participants and characterize the effects of oseltamivir in immunocompromised participants on the development of resistant influenza virus. Eligible immunocompromised participants with laboratory-confirmed influenza will be randomized to receive either conventional dose (30 milligrams [mg] to 75 mg twice daily orally [po], depending on age and weight) or double dose (60 mg-150 mg twice daily po depending on age and weight) olseltamivir for 10 days. Nasal and throat swabs will be taken, and safety evaluations made, at intervals during the study. The anticipated time on study medication is 10 days and the anticipated time on study is 40 days.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mastoid bone autograft for dorsal nasal augmentation in rhinoplasty.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether SPD476 is effective in reducing recurrence of diverticulitis.
The purpose of this trial is to compare the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of TMC278 given at a dose of 25 mg once daily versus efavirenz (EFV) at a dose of 600 mg once daily, when combined with a background regimen containing 2 nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors ( investigator choice of ABC/3TC, TDF/FTC or AZT/3TC) in HIV-1 infected patients who have not yet taken any anti-HIV drugs. The following evaluations will be done: antiviral activity, immunologic changes, and viral geno-/phenotype evolution, relationship of Pharmacokinetics (PK) and PK/Pharmacodynamics and Medical resource utilization and treatment adherence.
In this study, all patients will get investigational drug. There will be no comparator drug. This study will evaluate three tumor types: T-cell lymphoma, Indolent B-cell lymphoma, and Aggressive B-cell lymphoma. Each tumor type will include several tumor subtypes: - T-cell lymphoma: Peripheral and Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (PTCL, CTCL) - Indolent B-cell lymphoma: Small lymphocytic lymphoma, follicular lymphoma (Gr 1 or 2) and marginal zone lymphoma - Aggressive B-cell lymphoma: Primary CNS lymphoma, follicular lymphoma (Gr 3a and 3b) and aggressive lymphoma with prior clinical history of indolent lymphoma.
