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.
To demonstrate the non-inferiority of QVA149 110/50 µg o.d. to fluticasone/salmeterol 500/50 µg b.i.d. in terms of trough Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) (mean of 23 hours 15 min and 23 hours 45 min post QVA149 dose) following 26 weeks of treatment in patients with moderate to severe COPD
Primary Objective: To demonstrate that sarilumab added to disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) is effective for: - reduction of signs and symptoms at Week 24 and - improvement of physical function at Week 12 in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are inadequate responders or intolerant to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) antagonists. Secondary Objectives: The secondary objectives are to investigate the effects of SAR153191 (REGN88) when added to DMARD therapy, in patients with active RA who are inadequate responders or intolerant to TNF-α antagonists, for: - Reduction of signs and symptoms at 12 weeks. - Improvement in physical function at Week 24. - Improvement in disease activity score as measured by other American College of Rheumatology derived components at Weeks 12 and 24. - Improvement in quality of life as measured by patient reported outcomes (PROs) at intermediate visits and Week 24. To assess the safety of sarilumab in this population. To assess the exposure of sarilumab added to DMARD therapy in this population.
The purpose of this study is to see if mavrilimumab can provide benefit to subjects with rheumatoid arthritis.
A simplest manner to augment cerebral blood flow to irrigate the ischemic penumbra in acute ischemic stroke could be to place the patient in a 'lying flat' rather than upright head position. Given uncertainty over the balance of potential modest benefits and risks, and variability regarding the ideal head position policy for patients with acute ischemic stroke around the world, reliable randomized evidence is required to standardize clinical practice. The main objectives of this pilot phase clinical trial are to determine the feasibility, safety and potential efficacy of a large-scale cluster randomized clinical trial to assess whether a simple nursing care policy - 'lying flat head position' - provides beneficial effects as compared to the standard upright head position in patients with acute ischemic stroke. The main efficacy outcome of the pilot phase is demonstration of increased mean cerebral blood flow velocity in the flat down compared to the upright head position, as assessed by transcranial Doppler to the medial cerebral arteries of patients with anterior circulation infarction. Secondary efficacy objectives are to demonstrate that the flat down head position improves neurological status at 7 days and disability at 90 days.
The purpose of this study is to further enhance the existing knowledge regarding the side effects of belimumab when given with other lupus medicines to adults with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This study mainly focuses on collecting information on serious events that are not that common or may only be seen with long-term treatment. These events include death, serious infections and other infections of interest, cancers, serious mental health problems, including depression and suicide, and serious infusion and hypersensitivity reactions. This study is being done to help understand if treatment with belimumab increases the risk for these types of events. This study will also see if patients receiving belimumab with other lupus medicines can reduce their use of steroids, such as prednisone, over 1 year.
The purpose of this study is to summarize the percentage of participants achieving age-specific Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) targets for serum phosphorus in hyperphosphatemic children and adolescents with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who are on dialysis, following 8 weeks of treatment with lanthanum carbonate.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the use of autologous expanded mesenchymal stem cells intralesional transplantation as a safe and potentially beneficial treatment for patients with spinal cord injury.
This is a multi-centre, open-label long term safety study of 100 milligrams (mg) mepolizumab administered subcutaneously (SC) in addition to standard of care in subjects who participated in the MEA112997 study. At each clinic visit, adverse events will be assessed and exacerbations will also be reviewed.
The purpose of this study is to collect safety clinical data in HIV-infected pediatric patients aged 6 and older to younger than18 years and weighing 15 kg or more, who are receiving atazanavir capsule boosted with ritonavir and an optimized nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor backbone therapy as part of their antiretroviral regimen.
This study will evaluate two dose regimens of mepolizumab [75mg intravenous (i.v.) or 100mg subcutaneous (SC) every 4 weeks] compared with placebo over a 32 week treatment period in subjects with severe refractory asthma with elevated blood eosinophils. Efficacy will be measured by a reduction in the frequency of asthma exacerbations. Additional efficacy assessments will include measurements of lung function, symptom scores, and quality of life. Safety will be assessed by clinical laboratory samples, ECGs, immunogenicity and adverse events. This study is intended to replicate the Phase IIb/III study MEA112997. Subjects in MEA115588, who meet all eligibility criteria at screening visit, will enter the run-in period. Those subjects that are not able/eligible to be randomised at the end of the 6 week run-in period will be deemed run-in failures. Subjects will remain on their current maintenance therapy throughout the run-in, double-blind treatment administration and follow-up periods. Subjects who meet the randomisation eligibility criteria will be randomised in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive one of the following treatments every 4 weeks for a total of 8 doses: Mepolizumab 75 miligram (mg) i.v. and placebo SC, or Mepolizumab 100 mg SC and placebo i.v. or Placebo i.v. and placebo SC. Subjects that receive all 8 doses of double-blind treatment, and meet the eligibility criteria for the Open-Label Extension (OLE) Study, will be offered the opportunity to participate in the OLE trial.
