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 was to investigate a medicine for the treatment of symptoms and complications of neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) in children and adolescents.
This two-cohort, open-label, multicenter, phase II study will assess the safety and efficacy of pertuzumab given in combination with Herceptin (trastuzumab) and vinorelbine in first line in patients with metastatic or locally advanced HER2-positive breast cancer. Patients will receive pertuzumab 840 mg and Herceptin 8 mg/kg administered sequentially as separate iv infusions on Days 1 and 2, respectively, of Cycle 1. From Cycle 2 onwards, patients will receive pertuzumab 420 mg and Herceptin 6 mg/kg, administered either sequentially as separate iv infusions on Day 1 and Day 1 or 2, respectively (Cohort 1) or together in one infusion bag on Day 1 (Cohort 2) every 3 weeks. Vinorelbine will be administered at 25 mg/m2 iv on Days 2 and 9 of Cycle 1, and at 30-35 mg/m2 on Days 1 and 8 (or Days 2 and 9) of each following 3-week cycle. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs, or withdrawal of consent or death.
The currently available data are insufficient to develop a model that achieves optimum morphine dose individualization at the postoperative period of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Therefore, the objective of the study was to apply a PK/PD model that could justify morphine consumption, drug plasma concentration and pain intensity during the postoperative period after CABG and evaluate the post operative pain.
Prolonged pre-operative fasting increases postoperative hospital stay and current evidence recommends carbohydrate (CHO) drinks 2 hours before surgery. Our hypothesis is that the addition of hydrolized protein to a CHO-based drink not only reduces the inflammatory response but also diminish hospitalization.
Not all patients with the Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS), mostly mild, have excessive daytime sleepiness. Sleep fragmentation provides the performance decrease with increasing reaction time to external stimuli and correlates with excessive sleepiness. So, the study aims at assessing the effect of sleep fragmentation on the Reaction Time and it`s maintenance in patients with OSAS compared with healthy, to better clarify were patients with and without somnolence differ. For that, will be recruited 30 male volunteers aged between 20 and 50 year old to participate in the study. They will be distributed in three groups: "CONTROL" (without symptoms of sleepiness and apnea and hypopnea index (AHI) less than 5), "SS" (with AHI between 5 and 15 without symptoms of somnolence) and group "CS" (with AHI between 5 and 15 with symptoms of somnolence). The groups will undergo a polysomnography and subsequently, the Test and Maintenance of Wakefulness and PVT Battery Tests. The reaction time will be compared, as well as the ability to keep the reaction time over time between groups to see whether there is a difference between the motor performance throughout the day and the perception of sleepiness.
The purpose of this study is to verify the effectiveness of a systematic rehabilitative program for mastication in patients submitted to orthognathic surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the short-term safety and efficacy of a single intravitreal injection of autologous bone marrow stem cells in patients with retinitis pigmentosa.
This study is an international, multi-center, open-label study designed to provide oral treprostinil (UT-15C) to eligible subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension who have completed the TDE-PH-310 study. The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety of UT-15C and to assess the effects of long-term treatment with UT-15C on exercise capacity.
This is an international, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, event driven study in subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the guidelines preoperative performed by a nurse contribute to the recovery of the patient submitted to cardiac surgery compared with the guidelines for routine.
