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 if EVP-6124 (an alpha-7 nAChR agonist) enhances the cognitive abilities of subjects with Schizophrenia who are also taking stable antipsychotic therapy.
This open-label, randomized, adaptive, 2-arm, multicenter study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of oseltamivir (Tamiflu) in immunocompromised children, less than (<) 13 years of age, with confirmed influenza infection. Participants will be randomized to receive either the standard dose or triple dose of oseltamivir orally daily for a minimum of 5 days and up to 20 days. Infants <1 year of age will be randomized to the standard dose arm only.
This multicenter, open-label, single-arm extension study will evaluate the long-term safety of tocilizumab (RoActemra/Actemra) in participants with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Participants who have completed the MA21488 (NCT00810199) core study and the ML21530 (NCT00754572) study and who could benefit from the study drug, according to the opinion of the investigator, will receive 8 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) of intravenous (IV) tocilizumab every 4 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment is 104 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to determine if newly diagnosed (within previous 3 months) participants with metastatic (spread of cancer cells from one part of the body to another ) hormone-naive prostate cancer (mHNPC) who have high-risk prognostic factors will benefit from the addition of abiraterone acetate plus low-dose prednisone to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT; lutenizing hormone releasing hormone [LHRH] agonists or surgical castration).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate (Abatacept) for treatment of lupus nephritis when used on a background of Cellcept (mycophenolate) and prednisone (corticosteroids)
The purpose of this study is to determine if EVP-6124 (an alpha-7 nAChR agonist) enhances the cognitive abilities of subjects with Schizophrenia who are also taking stable antipsychotic therapy.
- BACKGROUND: Individuals with diabetes report innate preference for sweet foods, possibly due to genetic variants. In addition, studies have shown that ingestion of fructose promotes lower postprandial blood glucose, compared to glucose. However, excessive intake may increase triglycerides, uric acid and oxidative stress, due to oxidative priority. - AIMS: To investigate the influence of fructose and glucose and taste receptor, type 1, member 2 (TAS1R2) in glucose, triglycerides, uremia, oxidative stress, feelings related to food intake and palatability of individuals with type 1 diabetes. - METHODS: The trial is a single-blind, two-way crossover (1-week washout) study in 30 subjects with type 1 diabetes. Blood samples were collected before and 2-hours after the participants receive 75g of fructose or 75g of glucose dissolved in 200 ml water. Capillary blood glucose were assessed at 30, 90, 120, and 180 minutes to determine glucose, and visual analogue scales for measurement of appetite sensation were assessed at 70, 120, and 190 minutes. - PURPOSE: The research proposal adds knowledge about the TAS1R2 (Ile191Val) polymorphism and around the most suitable monosaccharide for individuals with diabetes type 1.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate physiological variables to the decision about the appropriate time to discontinuation of mechanical ventilation in patients with traumatic brain injury. It is expected that these variables are effective in predicting the outcome of weaning from mechanical ventilation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of supervised physical exercise on endothelial function and number of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, as well as evaluate the effect of supervised physical exercise on endothelium derived growth factor (VEGF) levels, disease activity, quality of life, fatigue, perceived exertion and cardiopulmonary exercise test variables.
This open-label, randomized, 2-arm, multicenter, phase 3 study has the primary objective of comparing the modified progression-free survival (mPFS) obtained with brentuximab vedotin (ADCETRIS®) plus AVD (doxorubicin [Adriamycin], vinblastine, and dacarbazine; abbreviated A+AVD) versus that obtained with ABVD (doxorubicin [Adriamycin],bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) for the frontline treatment of advanced classical Hodgkin lymphoma(HL)
