There are about 2320 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Chile. 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.
Septic shock is a highly lethal condition associated with a mortality risk of 30 to 60%. Optimizing tissue perfusion and oxygenation is the aim to decrease mortality and morbidity in septic shock patients. Persistent hyperlactatemia after initial resuscitation is particularly difficult to interpret, although optimizing systemic blood flow might reverse ongoing hypoperfusion. Nevertheless, if persistent hyperlactatemia is caused by non-hypoperfusion-related mechanisms, then sustained efforts aimed at increasing cardiac output (CO) could lead to detrimental effects of excessive fluids or inotropes. Another potential alternative resuscitation target is peripheral perfusion as assessed by capillary refill time (CRT), mottling score or central-to-toe temperature differences. Reversal of abnormal peripheral perfusion might represent improvement in tissue hypoperfusion with the advantage of a faster recovery than lactate. Hypothesis: Peripheral perfusion guided resuscitation in septic shock is associated with lower mortality, less organ dysfunctions, less mechanical ventilation (MV), less vasopressor load, and less renal replacement therapies than a lactate-targeted resuscitation strategy. Main Objective To test if peripheral perfusion targeted resuscitation in septic shock is associated with lower 28-day mortality than a lactate targeted resuscitation. Design: Multicenter, Parallel Assignment randomized controlled study, conducted under supervision of an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB). Interventions: 1. Active Comparator- Peripheral Perfusion guided resuscitation 2. Active Comparator- Lactate guided resuscitation Randomization: 1:1 the randomization using a block size of eight will be stratified according to participating centers. Trial size: 400 randomized patients in 30 ICUs.
This was a Phase III, Efficacy and Safety Study of Oleogel-S10 in Participants with Inherited Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB). EB is a rare group of genetic skin fragility disorders characterised by blistering of the skin in response to minor injury. In most cases, onset of EB is at birth or shortly after. All participants affected by any type of EB share the main characteristic of repeatedly developing painful wounds that take days to months to heal. Current treatment of EB is primarily preventative and supportive including protection from mechanical forces by avoiding rubbing, early treatment of wounds to prevent infections, and protection of the wound with adequate non-adhesive dressings to enable healing. The active pharmaceutical ingredient in Oleogel-S10 is a refined birch bark extract, quantified to 72 to 88% betulin. This clinical study of Oleogel-S10 in patients with inherited EB has been carried out to investigate whether Oleogel-S10 is effective for treatment of EB wounds and safe for long-term use. Oleogel-S10 was compared to a control gel. The control gel matched Oleogel-S10 in terms of texture and visual appearance to allow for double-blinding. The packaging for Oleogel-S10 gel and the control gel were identical. The participant received either Oleogel-S10 or control gel for a double-blind study phase of 90 days. The probability that the participant received Oleogel-S10 was 50%, which means that they had a 1 in 2 chance of receiving Oleogel-S10. However, in the follow-up phase of the study all participants were treated with Oleogel-S10 for a period of 24 months. This clinical study was performed at 49 study sites in 26 countries (Argentina, Australia, Austria, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong [China], Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, Ukraine, United Kingdom, and the United States)Íž 223 participants participated in total.
About 213 people with ALS will participate in this study. There will be locations in North and South America. During the first part, participants will be randomly assigned to a group (like by flipping a coin). Out of every 3: - 2 will get the study drug - 1 will get a look-alike with no drug in it (placebo) During the second part, everyone will get the study drug. Participation will help doctors find out if Acthar can help or slow down the symptoms of ALS better than placebo.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab plus standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy (etoposide/platinum [EP]) in participants with newly diagnosed extensive stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) who have not previously received systemic therapy for this malignancy. The primary study hypotheses are that pembrolizumab+EP prolongs Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR) and Overall Survival (OS) compared with placebo+EP in adult participants with ES-SCLC. In this study, RECIST 1.1 has been modified to follow a maximum of 10 target lesions and a maximum of 5 target lesions per organ. With protocol Amendment 07 (03-Oct-2018), the outcome measure of "Change from Baseline at Weeks 12 and 24 in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30) Global Health Status/Quality of Life Scale" was replaced with a single time point analysis at Week 18.
A clinical trial is proposed, to clinically validate the diagnostic performance of a new genetic test developed in Chile. It will determine the nature of thyroid nodules that have been informed as indeterminate by cytology through a fine needle aspiration (FNA). The Genetic Classifier for Indeterminate Thyroid Nodules is a quantitative gene expression test, that combines the results for a panel of 10 biomarkers (CXCR3, CCR3, CXCl10, CK19, TIMP1, CLDN1, CAR, XB130, HO-1 and CCR7), to generate a single number score. It is indicated on patients with a thyroid nodule informed by cytology as indeterminate (Bethesda III and IV, according to The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology). This test would be used by taking a sample with a fine needle aspiration (FNA) and thus, being able to predict, with high accuracy, benign nodules that do not require surgery.
Study assessing the efficacy and safety of alpelisib plus fulvestrant or letrozole, based on prior endocrine therapy, in patients with hormone receptor (HR) positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer (aBC), harboring PIK3CA mutations, who have progressed on or after prior treatments.
The name of this trial is MissionAD2. This phase 3 study consists of a Core and Open Label Extension (OLE) Phase in participants with Early Alzheimer's Disease (EAD), and will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of E2609. The Core is a 24-month treatment, multicenter, double blind, placebo controlled parallel group study. The OLE is a 24-month treatment, one group study. The data for end points for the studies E2609-G000-301 (NCT02956486) and E2609-G000-302 (NCT03036280) will be pooled for a combined total of 1900 participants.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an investigational immunotherapy nivolumab in combination with ipilimumab or in combination with standard of care chemotherapy is more effective than standard of care chemotherapy alone in treating participants with previously untreated inoperable or metastatic urothelial cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of different administration regimens of nivolumab plus ipilimumab in subjects with renal cell carcinoma.
The AURORA study will be conducted to confirm the efficacy and safety of cenicriviroc (CVC) for the treatment of liver fibrosis in adult participants with NASH.
