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 2 arm study will assess the long-term efficacy and safety of oral treatment with 100mg or 150mg Bonviva in women with post-menopausal osteoporosis who have previously completed Bonviva study BM16549 (MOBILE study). Patients will receive Bonviva either 100mg po monthly, or 150mg po monthly. Patients will also receive daily supplementation with vitamin D and calcium. The anticipated time of study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
The primary objective of the TMC114-C215 study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TMC114/RTV over time. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the antiviral activity over time and to evaluate the immunological effect over time.
The purpose of this study is to determine if TLK286(Telcyta) is more effective than gefitinib (Iressa) in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if BMS-247550 added to the approved therapy of capecitabine is better than capecitabine alone in shrinking or slowing the growth of the cancer in women with metastatic breast cancer who are resistant to taxane and received anthracycline chemotherapy. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the clinical efficacy of Rebif® 44 microgram (mcg) three times per week compared with Copaxone® 20 milligram (mg) daily in subjects with relapsing Multiple Sclerosis.
Primary objective: - To demonstrate superiority of enoxaparin 40 mg sc qd in the prevention of VTE compared to UFH (unfractionated heparin) 5000 U sc q12 hours given for 10 ± 4 days following acute ischemic stroke. Secondary objectives: - To compare the incidence of VTE between the 2 treatment groups at 30, 60, and 90 days from the time of randomization - To compare neurologic outcomes between the 2 treatment groups, including incidence of stroke recurrence, rate of stroke progression, and patient functional status, during the 10 ± 4 days of treatment, and after 30, 60, and 90 days from the time of randomization - To evaluate the safety of using enoxaparin compared to UFH for VTE prevention in patients following acute ischemic stroke
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether enoxaparin compared to unfractionated heparin will reduce the composite endpoint of all-cause mortality and non-fatal myocardial re-infarction within 30 days after randomization in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction who are eligible to receive fibrinolytic therapy
Primary objective: - To demonstrate the superiority of extended VTE prophylaxis with enoxaparin 40mg sc qd for 28 ± 4 days, compared to placebo, both following 10 ± 4 days of initial treatment with enoxaparin 40mg sc qd Secondary objectives: - To assess the reduction in mortality rate at the end of the double-blind treatment period, at 3 (90 ± 10 days) and at 6 (180 ± 10 days) months from the time of entry to the study, in patients on extended prophylaxis - To assess the incidence of VTE at 3 months (90 ± 10 days) from the time of randomization to the study - To evaluate the safety of extended enoxaparin VTE prophylaxis in acutely ill medical patients with prolonged immobilization. Safety evaluation includes: - Major and minor hemorrhage - Heparin induced thrombocytopenia - Serious adverse events - To assess differences in levels of health-care utilization and cost between patients receiving extended VTE prophylaxis versus those receiving placebo.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous (sc) Mircera given as maintenance treatment for renal anemia in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis who were previously receiving sc epoetin. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of Mircera given intravenously in the treatment of renal anemia in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis who are not currently receiving epoetin or any other erythropoietic substance. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
