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 the effect of pre and intra-operative bevacizumab injection on postoperative vitreous hemorrhage after diabetic vitrectomy in comparison to vitrectomy without bevacizumab injection.
A Randomized Clinical Trial with security and dose testing of Sildenafil Citrate in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage due to a rupture of a cerebral aneurism for prevention of cerebral vasospasm. The cerebral vasospasm is a decrease in blood flow that occurs when the intracranial vessels lose their capability of self-control of dilations and contractions. Patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage without neurological deficits who underwent endovascular or surgical correction of the aneurysm can participate in this trial. They will be randomized to a daily doses of 75 mg of Sildenafil, 150 mg of Sildenafil or Placebo from the third to the 14th day post bleeding. Today there is no proven clinical treatment for prevention of cerebral vasospasm.
The objective this study is evaluate the performance and safety of Chronus® cobalt-chromium coronary stent in patients with "de novo" native coronary artery lesions treated with 19-mm-long stents in long-term 9 months.
The Global Anticoagulant Registry in the FIELD-Atrial Fibrillation (GARFIELD-AF Registry) is a non-interventional, observational study that characterized a global population of non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients. The registry was used to document global baseline characteristics, current treatment strategies and outcome measures. Characterisation of a number of AF sub-populations was also completed. GARFIELD-AF is an independent academic research initiative sponsored by the Thrombosis Research Institute (London, UK) and supported by an unrestricted research grant from Bayer AG (Berlin, Germany).
This extension study will assess the safety and efficacy of AIN457 versus placebo for maintaining uveitis suppression when reducing systemic immunosuppression
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of eccentric strength training for shoulder abductors on force steadiness in subjects with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS).
The aim of this study was to analyze the shrinkage of two different screens in the repair of inguinal hernias in men . 32 patients with unilateral inguinal hernia were assigned randomly. A Lichtenstein tension-free hernia repair was accomplished by emplacing heavy weight versus ultralight weight polypropylene meshes for repair of incisional hernia, marked next to the lips with six titanium clips (LT200).
Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of asthma treatment but despite being correctly diagnosed, conveniently prescribed and adherent to the therapeutics, 5% to 10% of asthmatics do not reach disease control. The aim of this study is to measure asthma control, evaluate inflammatory and functional characteristics, describe comorbidities and aggravating factors and phenotypes derived from the characteristics of a severe asthmatic population followed at an outpatient university service in Sao Paolo, Brazil.
The primary objective of phase 1 of this study is to establish the recommended phase II dose (RP2D). The primary objective of phase 2 of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of bendamustine at the recommended pediatric dose for the treatment of pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia.
Acute effects of CPAP on diastolic function in patients with compensated heart failure (CHF) are unknown. The investigators hypothesized that acutely CPAP improves diastolic function, which is associated with increases exercise tolerance. Objective: To evaluate the acute effects of CPAP on functional capacity and diastolic indices of patients with CHF. This is a randomized trial including 44 patients with compensated heart failure (functional classes II or III, NYHA). Patients will be allocated in CPAP(CPAP with 10cmH2O) or simulated CPAP (null pressure) after computed randomization, in a 1:1 ratio. All subjects shall complete a 6-minute walk test (6MWT) before and after CPAP (30 minutes; 10 cm H2O pressure). Doppler-echocardiogram will be performed before and at the end of CPAP. Wilcoxon or paired t tests were used to compare results, with significance level at p < 0.05.
