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 the study is to evaluate the safety of Symbicort compared to inhaled corticosteroid alone during 6 months in adult and adolescent patients with asthma
Pregnancies complicated by diabetes and mild gestational hyperglycemia are associated with increased perinatal and maternal complications. The most serious maternal complication is the risk of developing type 2 diabetes after 10-12 years of the delivery. Perinatal complications include fetal macrosomia with consequent increased risk of obstetrical trauma and hypoxia/asphyxia, high rates of cesarean section, respiratory distress syndrome, and metabolic disorders at birth. Regardless of the diagnosis of diabetes and mild gestational hyperglycemia, the perinatal outcome is directly related to maternal metabolic control. For the tight control of blood glucose, pregnant women are treated as home care (outpatient) or hospital care. Objective: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness and safety of home versus hospital care of gestational diabetes and mild gestational hyperglycemia.
This is a worldwide, three-part (Part 1: open-label, Part 2: randomized, double-blind, Part 3: extension), multi-center study to evaluate the effect of eltrombopag in subjects with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have thrombocytopenia due to bone marrow insufficiency from their underlying disease or prior chemotherapy. This objective will be assessed by a composite primary endpoint that consists of the following: the proportion of ≥Grade 3 hemorrhagic adverse events, or platelet counts <10 Gi/L, or platelet transfusions. Patients with MDS or AML and Grade 4 thrombocytopenia due to bone marrow insufficiency from their underlying disease or prior chemotherapy will be enrolled in the study. No low or intermediate-1 risk MDS subjects will be enrolled in the study. Subjects must have had at least one of the following during the 4 weeks prior to enrolment: platelet count <10 Gi/L, platelet transfusion, or symptomatic hemorrhagic event. Supportive standard of care (SOC), including hydroxyurea, will be allowed as indicated by local practice throughout the study. The study will have 3 sequential parts. Subjects who are enrolled in Part 1 (open-label) cannot be enrolled in Part 2 of the study (randomized, double-blind); however, subjects who complete the treatment period for Part 1 or Part 2 (8 and 12 weeks, respectively) will continue in Part 3 (extension) if the investigator determines that the subject is receiving clinical benefit on treatment.
Oral mucositis remains a limiting factor in in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas patients treated with chemoradiation leading to pain, dysphagia, and weight loss. Low-level laser therapy emerges as a promising, preventive therapy of chemoradiation-induced OM. This study was designed to assess the efficacy of Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) in reducing the incidence and/or severity of oral mucositis.
This study is prospective, open-label, randomized, crossover, single dose, with 02 treatments, 02 sequences and 02 periods. The volunteers received, in each period, the reference or the test formulation, according to the randomization list, under fasting conditions, in order to evaluate if the reference and test formulations are bioequivalent.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MEDI-546 compared to placebo in subjects with chronic, moderately-to-severely active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with an inadequate response to standard of care treatment for SLE.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of a physical training program with active video game in inflammatory markers, quality of life variables , clinical control and physical and functional respiratory assessment of asthmatic children from 5 to 11 years.
Primary Objective: - To evaluate the efficacy of daily oral doses of 400 mg or 500 mg of SAR302503 (Investigational Medicinal Product, IMP) compared to placebo in the reduction of spleen volume as determined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (or computed tomography scan in patients with contraindications for MRI). Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the effect on Myelofibrosis (MF)-associated symptoms (key MF symptoms) as measured by the modified Myelofibrosis Symptom Assessment Form (MFSAF) diary. - To evaluate the Overall Survival of patients treated with either 400 mg/day or 500 mg/day of IMP as compared to placebo. - To evaluate the Progression Free Survival of patients treated with either 400 mg/day or 500 mg/day of IMP as compared to placebo. - To evaluate the durability of splenic response. - To evaluate the safety of IMP.
The iWONDER trial has the following objective: To analyze the morphological, phenotypic and tissue characteristics of atherosclerotic plaques angiographically considered "culprit" and "not-culprit" in patients undergoing coronary angiography due to STEMI (ST-elevation myocardial infarction).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the viability of using the Step Test (ST) in stroke patients, and to compare the functional performance of the physiologic variables in stroke patients during ST and Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT).
