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 6 arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of different doses of P38 Inhibitor (4) in patients with RA currently having an inadequate clinical response to methotrexate. Patients will be randomized to receive P38 Inhibitor (4) (50,150 or 300 qd po,and 25 or 75 bid po) or placebo, and will remain on the stable dose of methotrexate. The anticipated time on study treatment is <3 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of anecortave acetate depot when administered for the treatment of elevated IOP following treatment with steroids.
The study evaluates the effect of inactivation of the immune system with chemotherapy and immunotherapy and infusion of bone marrow stem cells in early onset type 1 diabetes mellitus. We hypothesize that reprograming the immune system will stop immune aggression to the insulin producing cells allowing their regeneration and thus decreasing or eliminating the need of exogenous insulin.
The purpose of this trial is to understand if adding saxagliptin to a sulfonylurea is safe and works better than increasing the amount of sulfonylurea a patient takes
The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of VELCADE and rituximab improves progression free survival relative to rituximab alone in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL) who never received rituximab or who have previously responded to rituximab. This is an international study being conducted in the United States and in many countries around the world. A complete list of study locations is listed below.
The aim of the present study is to identify factors (such as symptom patterns and symptom scores) that influence the response to treatment with pantoprazole using different evaluation methods (e.g., ReQuest™ questionnaire, patient and investigator assessment). Pantoprazole will be administered once daily in the morning at one dose level. The study duration consists of a treatment period of 8 weeks. The study will provide further data on safety and tolerability of pantoprazole.
This large phase III clinical study is studying the effect of vandetanib (ZACTIMA) in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Vandetanib is a new type of agent that targets the blood supply to a cancer tumour (through it's anti-vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) properties) and the tumour cells themselves (through it's anti-endothelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) actions). This study will look at the effects of vandetanib in lung cancer patients who have had their cancer re-appear after treatment with standard chemotherapy. This clinical study will test if the vandetanib anti-VEGF and anti-EGFR characteristics can deliver longer improved progression free survival and improved overall survival than docetaxel (Taxotere) alone. All patients participating this clinical study will receive treatment with docetaxel, a commonly used treatment for recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. In addition, some patients will also receive vandetanib (ZACTIMA), an anti-EGFR / anti-VEGF agent. Recent clinical research shows that vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibition, when used with standard chemotherapy, can lead to increased survival in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Other research shows that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors, like erlotinib (Tarceva) can also increase overall non-small cell lung cancer survival by killing tumour cells and stopping them from dividing.
Primary objective : - To compare disease-free survival after treatment with docetaxel in combination with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide to doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel in operable adjuvant breast cancer HER2neu negative patients with positive axillary lymph nodes. Secondary objectives : - To compare toxicity and quality of life between the 2 above-mentioned arms. - To evaluate pathologic and molecular markers for predicting efficacy.
The three purposes of this study are the following: - To compare during a 6-month treatment the safety and effectiveness of idrabiotaparinux (SSR126517) with that of idraparinux (SR34006), taking into account new events of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), and bleeding risk; - To compare the activities of idrabiotaparinux and idraparinux directly in blood during and after a 6-month treatment; - To check the ability of avidin (SSR29261) to reverse the blood thinning activity of idrabiotaparinux at the end of a 6-month treatment period.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of long-term therapy with retigabine administered as adjunctive therapy in adult epilepsy patients with partial-onset seizures, who completed the VRX-RET-E22-301 double-blind study. The efficacy of long-term treatment with retigabine and patient quality of life will also be assessed.
