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 3 arm study will assess the efficacy of taspoglutide on glycemic control (as assessed by HbA1c) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with metformin plus pioglitazone, compared to placebo after 24 weeks of treatment. Patients will be randomized to one of 3 treatment arms: taspoglutide 10mg once weekly, taspoglutide 20 mg once weekly (after 4 weeks of taspoglutide 10 mg once weekly) or placebo, in addition to their continued stable metformin plus pioglitazone treatment. After the first 24 weeks patients on placebo will be switched to taspoglutide 10mg once weekly or taspoglutide 20mg once weekly (after 4 weeks of taspoglutide 10mg once weekly. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
Human Vascular Endothelial Grown Factor 165 (hVEGF165) administration is promising therapy induces a new vessels, arterioles and capillaries in regions whose revascularization surgery is not possible by direct or by percutaneous angioplasty. This study aims to evaluate the clinical effects and safety of gene therapy with hVEGF165 in patients with advanced coronary artery disease.
This study describes a controlled randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of bone marrow derived stem-cell implants by minithoracotomy in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and cardiac failure class III or NYHA.
The aim of this study was to verify the frequency of the forward head posture in subjects with temporomandibular disorder and to compare them with control group
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of maternal supplementation with 400,000 IU of oral retinol palmitate in the post-partum, the nutritional situation of the binomial mother-child, on growth and morbidity of children in breastfeeding in the first six months of life.
This study evaluated the efficacy of oral panobinostat in participants with refractory/relapsed classical Hodgkins lymphoma (HL) who have received prior treatment with high dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant. Safety of panobinostat also was assessed. Other markers that may correlate with efficacy or safety were explored.
The aim of this report was to evaluate the unstimulated whole saliva flow in patients with head and neck cancers during and after the exclusive radiotherapy with an association of lauryl-diethylene-glycol-ether sodium sulfate and calcium hydroxide (Hct20). This study was held at the buccal cancer center of UNESP and involved thirty one patients (n = 31) divided into two groups: Group 1 had seventeen patients (n = 17) submitted to fractioned radiation treatment in the head and neck region at the total dose of 7.000 cGy and had Hct20 during the treatment. Group 2 with fourteen patients (n = 14) started with the use of Hct20 after the end of radiotherapy. A weekly and measured collection of the index of the total non stimulated saliva flow was done on the patients of both groups. The values that were obtained were analyzed statistically through the Bartlett test, the Friedman test and the Wilcox test, to seek an evaluation of effectiveness of the medication on the prevention of the intense drop of the salivary flow during the radiotherapy and do avoid the xerostomia during the post-radiotherapeutic period. The patients from group 1 at the end of the radiotherapy kept the base index of the total non stimulated salivary flow, the ones from group 2 that used the medication association after the radiotherapy had a great improvement of total non stimulated salivary flow and the usage of the Hct20 had a better result on the index of salivary flow during the radiotherapy.
Recent evidences suggest that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can contribute to cardiovascular disease even in the absence of hypertension. However, there are few data regarding the impact of OSA on the preHypertension and Masked Hypertension in apparently normotensive patients with OSA as well as the impact of treatment with continuous positive airway pressure.
The main purpose of the trial is to evaluate pulmonary function in subjects who had completed any one of the 4 MKC parent trials (MKC-TI-009, MKC-TI-102, MKC-TI-103, or MKC-TI-030) for an additional 2-month safety follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to see if treatment with an antigen-specific immunosuppressive can decrease or stop an antibody response to laronidase (Aldurazyme®) during enzyme replacement therapy with laronidase in severe Mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I) participants.
