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 purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with Zactima (vandetanib) in combination with Docetaxel and Prednisolone is more effective than the standard Docetaxel and Prednisolone alone for prostate cancer, in patients with Hormone refractory prostate cancer who have not previously received chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety of the gynecological formulation in normal and usual usage condition of Dermacyd Femina Delicata.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the absence of irritation potential (primary dermic irritability and cumulated dermic irritability) and allergy (sensibilization) of the product Dermacyd Femina Delicata.
The purpose of this Clinical Evaluation is the continued assessment of the XIENCE Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System (XIENCE V® and XIENCE PRIME™ EECSS) with the primary focus on clinical outcomes in the treatment of female patients with de novo coronary artery lesions, and the characterization of the female population undergoing stent implantation with a XIENCE stent.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to determine whether apixaban is more effective than acetylsalicylic acid in the prevention of strokes associated with patients with atrial fibrillation. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy and safety of volinanserin in the population of patients complaining of sleep maintenance insomnia. The objective of the substudy is to assess glycemic control in the subgroup of patients with type II diabetes mellitus.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the long-term safety and impact on disease activity and progression of Tysabri in participants with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) in a clinical practice setting.
This is a randomised, open label multi-centre phase III study comparing the activity of lapatinib alone versus trastuzumab alone versus trastuzumab followed by lapatinib versus lapatinib concomitantly with trastuzumab in the adjuvant treatment of patients with ErbB2 overexpressing and/or amplified breast cancer. Patients will be enrolled according to one of two design schemas, with Design 2 having two chemotherapy options (Design 2 and 2B), and will be randomised to one of four treatment regimens within each design schema. The primary objective of this study is to compare disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with HER2 overexpressing and/or amplified breast cancer randomised to trastuzumab for one year versus lapatinib for one year versus trastuzumab (12 or 18 weeks, according to assigned design) followed by a six-week treatment-free interval followed by lapatinib (28 or 34 weeks, according to assigned design) versus trastuzumab in combination with lapatinib for one year (52 weeks). Secondary objectives include treatment comparisons with respect to overall survival, time to recurrence, time to distant recurrence, safety and tolerability, incidence of brain metastasis, and analyses conducted separately for cohorts of patients defined by presence or absence of cMyc oncogene amplification, expression level of PTEN and presence or absence of the p95HER2 receptor. On August 18, 2011, the ALTTO Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) met to review the first planned interim analysis. The IDMC reported that the comparison of lapatinib alone versus trastuzumab alone crossed the futility boundary, indicating that the lapatinib alone arm was unlikely to meet the pre-specified criteria to demonstrate non-inferiority to trastuzumab alone with respect to disease-free survival (DFS). The IDMC also stated that the other three arms (trastuzumab alone, sequential trastuzumab/lapatinib arm and the combination arm) should continue as planned with no changes.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the LNG-IUS and TCU 380A users on the sub-endometrial vascularization and the uterine artery blood flow using power Doppler analysis and ultrasonography pulsed color Doppler during the precise mid-luteal phase.
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of insulin lispro protamine suspension (ILPS) as compared to insulin detemir as basal insulin combined with mealtime insulin therapy in patients with type 1 diabetes. A gatekeeper strategy will be employed for sequentially testing the secondary objectives.
