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 scope of this clinical study is to evaluate the possible role of an enteral formulation enriched with EPA, GLA and Antioxidants in patients diagnosed in the early stages of sepsis despite mechanical ventilation requirements, as well as the impact of this diet upon glycemic control and its capacity to prevent the development of sepsis into severe sepsis and septic shock.
The purpose of this study is to assess if 10 mg BAY 59-7939, taken once daily as a tablet, is safe and prevent blood clot which may form after total hip replacement operation.
The general aim of this study is to determine the comparative safety and efficacy of dabigatran etexilate administered orally and warfarin (International Normalized Ratio (INR) of 2.0-3.0) for the long-term treatment and secondary prevention of symptomatic venous thromboembolism in patients who have been successfully treated with standard doses of an approved anticoagulant for three to twelve months for confirmed acute symptomatic Venous Thrombo-embolism.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of alogliptin, once daily (QD), taken in combination with pioglitazone in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of this trial is to understand if adding saxagliptin to metformin therapy is safe and works better than taking either saxagliptin or metformin alone
The aim of this study is to evaluate the complete remission rates, endoscopic relapses, study discontinuation rates, and quality of life parameters in patients with erosive GERD. The study duration consists of a treatment period up to 16 weeks according to the classical healing concept or the complete remission concept. During this period, the patients will receive pantoprazole (tablet) at one dose level once daily. The following observational phase lasts up to 6 months. The study will provide further data on efficacy, safety, and tolerability of pantoprazole.
This is a phase 3, open-label, randomized study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Lilly/Alkermes inhaled insulin system compared to injected pre-meal insulin in non-smoking patients with type 2 diabetes. Patients will be treated for 24 months with a 2-month follow-up period.
Burns represent one of the most severe and dreaded traumas. Burned and traumatized tissue is known as eschar. The dead eschar, if not removed, often becomes heavily contaminated and is the source of local and/or systemic infection or sepsis. The local inflammation and infection destroy healthy surrounding tissues and extends the original damage. In order to prevent these complications, and in order to minimize the risk of infection, it is imperative to evaluate the burn and remove all of the offending eschar at the earliest possible opportunity. This removal of dead tissue is termed "debridement". The most direct debridement method for eschar removal is surgery. Traditional, conservative non-surgical debridement is a lengthy process which often involves many complications. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and enzymatic debriding efficacy of Debrase Gel Dressing (DGD) in hospitalized patients with deep partial thickness and/or full thickness thermal burns and to compare DGD to standard of care (SOC).
The purpose of this clinical research study is to examine the safety and effectiveness (how well the drug works) of two different treatments for patients with melanoma. One treatment is an investigational compound (a drug that is not currently approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration [FDA]), know as Ipilimumab (also known as MDX-010 or BMS-734016) together with an approved chemotherapy drug called Dacarbazine
The purpose of the study is to estimate drug preference of stable schizophrenic patients who will be treated with olanzapine orodispersible tablets for 6 weeks then with olanzapine tablets for 6 weeks and vice-versa.
