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 evaluate the benefits and risks of lixisenatide (AVE0010), in comparison to placebo, as an add-on treatment to basal insulin with or without metformin over a period of 24 weeks of treatment, followed by an extension. The primary objective is to assess the effects of lixisenatide when added to basal insulin on glycemic control in terms of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reduction at Week 24. The secondary objectives are to assess the effects of lixisenatide when added to basal insulin on body weight, 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) after standardized meal challenge test, percentage of patients reaching HbA1c less than 7 percent (%), percentage of patients reaching HbA1c less than or equal to 6.5%, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), change in 7-point self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) profiles, change in basal insulin and total insulin doses; to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and anti-lixisenatide antibody development.
The aim of this study is to determine the safety of the autologous transplantation of adipose-derived stem cells in the treatment of lipodystrophies.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of aspirin plus clopidogrel is more effective than aspirin alone in preventing another heart attack, chest pain, stroke or death in people who have already had a heart attack that was treated with fibrinolytic therapy.
Background: Compare the American and Brazilian protocols for prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), seeking to draft a new protocol, more comprehensive and applicable. Methods: A prospective study was conducted over a year, covering 212 patients, comparing the protocols on the stratification of risk of DVT, and the type of prophylaxis indicated. A new protocol was proposed, applied and compared to previous.
In newborn infants submitted to surgical procedures, tramadol may provide an effective analgesia and decrease the time on mechanical ventilation support and the time to achieve full enteral feeding.
This is a long-term continuation study to provide continuing treatment to subjects with SLE.
Corticotherapy accelerates maternal postpartum recovery in women with class I HELLP syndrome. The benefit of faster and better recovery would be observed in fewer complications, less utilization of blood products and shorter hospital stay.
The purpose of the current study is to assess the safety and tolerability of intravenous tonapofylline.
To compare the antihypertensive efficacy of the combination irbesartan/hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) using either a usual or an active elective titration regimen. The main efficacy criteria will be the change in mean Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), measured at doctor's office with an automatic device, after a 10-week treatment period in hypertensive patients insufficiently controlled by monotherapy.
To determine the effect of ABT-869 plus mFOLFOX6 compared to bevacizumab plus mFOLFOX6 on disease progression in advanced colorectal cancer.
