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 Fabry Registry is an ongoing, international multi-center, strictly observational program that tracks the routine clinical outcomes for patients with Fabry disease, irrespective of treatment status. No experimental intervention is involved; patients in the Registry undergo clinical assessments and receive care as determined by the patient's treating physician. The primary objectives of the Registry are: - To enhance the understanding of the variability, progression, and natural history of Fabry disease, including heterozygous females with the disease; - To assist the Fabry medical community with the development of recommendations for monitoring patients and reports on patient outcomes to help optimize patient care; - To characterize and describe the Fabry population as a whole; - To evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of Fabrazyme® Fabry Pregnancy Sub-registry: This Sub-registry is a multicenter, international, longitudinal, observational, and voluntary program designed to track pregnancy outcomes for any pregnant woman enrolled in the Fabry Registry, regardless of whether she is receiving disease-specific therapy (such as enzyme replacement therapy with agalsidase beta) and irrespective of the commercial product with which she may be treated. Data from the Sub-registry are also used to fulfill various global regulatory requirements, to support product development/reimbursement, and for other research and non-research-related purposes. No experimental intervention is given; thus a patient will undergo clinical assessments and receive standard of care treatment as determined by the patient's physician. If a patient consents to this Sub-registry, information about the patient's medical and obstetric history, pregnancy, and birth will be collected, and, if a patient consents to data collection for her infant, data on infant growth through month 36 postpartum will be collected.
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the improvement in social function following therapy with venlafaxine extended release (XR) in the treatment of panic disorder (PD) in comparison to paroxetine. An additional purpose of this pilot study is to obtain the tolerability of using venlafaxine extended release (XR) in the treatment of panic disorder (PD) in comparison to paroxetine.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Levonorgestrel/Ethinyl Estradiol (LNG/EE) is effective in treating the symptoms of severe Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder.
To evaluate the tolerability, bleeding patterns and acceptability of Totelle® 1mg administered to a population of Brazilian women in a continuous combined regime for hormone replacement therapy.
Compare kidney function as measured by calculated creatinine clearance (using the method by Nankivell)1 at 12 months after transplantation in subjects receiving induction therapy with cyclosporine microemulsion (CsA) and Rapamune followed by CsA dose reduction (Group I) with subjects receiving induction therapy with CsA and Rapamune followed by CsA discontinuation (Group II).
This study evaluates two different immunosuppression drug regimens in patients with a recent kidney transplant. Patients initially received a regimen of Sirolimus, Tacrolimus and Prednisone and then randomized to discontinue either Tacrolimus or Prednisone.
This is a phase 3b/4 randomized, open-label, comparative, multicenter study of the safety and efficacy of tigecycline to ceftriaxone sodium plus metronidazole in hospitalized subjects with cIAI (Complicated Intra-Abdominal Infection). Subjects with clinical signs and symptoms of cIAI will be included for enrollment. Subjects will be stratified at randomization for Acute Physiologic and Chronic Health Evaluation scale (APACHE II) score < 10 and > 10. Subjects will be followed for efficacy through the test-of-cure assessment. Safety evaluations will occur through the treatment and post-treatment periods and continue through resolution or stability of the adverse event(s).
The gemcitabine-paclitaxel and gemcitabine-platinum combinations have shown promise in the treatments of MBC; however, the optimal dosing schedules for these combinations have not yet been determined. The primary objective of this study is to compare the response rates of the gemcitabine-paclitaxel, gemcitabine-carboplatin, and gemcitabine-cisplatin combinations when administered on a biweekly schedule in metastatic breast cancer.
The purposes of this study are to determine: How standard gemcitabine plus cisplatin compares to fixed dose rate of gemcitabine plus cisplatin in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. The safety of standard gemcitabine plus cisplatin and any side effects that might be associated with it as compared to a fixed dose rate of gemcitabine plus cisplatin.
This is a phase III randomized study between the docetaxel/gemcitabine and docetaxel/ capecitabine doublets, with crossover to the alternate agent. The experimental arm will receive gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 intravenous (IV) over 30 minutes days 1 and 8 and docetaxel 75 mg/m2 IV day 1 over 1 hour repeated every three weeks. The comparator arm will receive docetaxel 75 mgm/m2 IV day 1 over 1 hour and oral capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 twice daily, days 1 through 14 repeated every three weeks. Patients who progress on the experimental arm, will be treated with capecitabine as dosed on the comparator arm. Patients who progress on the comparator arm will be treated with gemcitabine as dosed on the experimental arm.
