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.
As is well known, immunosuppressive treatment (IS) after liver transplantation has several and frequents adverse effects that limit the survival of the graft and recipients. Because of that, it is desirable that these recipients were able to receive a mild IS regime with a better safety profile. An attempt to get that aim has been evaluated in several trials in the past, and consist in to change the IS regime from an calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) based to another less intense and with less adverse effects based on mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), which is known to have a better safety profile. The success rate of this strategy(i.e. complete conversion in absence of rejection) has a wide range from 100% to 50% approximately. However it is accepted that this strategy is associated with the improvement of several adverse effects of CNIs such as renal failure and dyslipemia. This study's aim is to perform IS conversion from CNI to MMF monotherapy and look for transcriptional biomarkers employing a whole genome expression study performed with microarrays at baseline on liver tissue and/or PBMCs to try to find a differential gene expression able to correlate with a successful conversion and thus, to generate a set of transcriptional biomarkers potentially able to predict the result of the IS conversion on an independent cohort of liver recipients.
An open-label study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of GSK1605786A 500 mg twice daily over 108 weeks in adult subjects with Crohn's disease. Subjects completing previous GSK-sponsored studies with GSK1605786A or subjects who withdraw early from Study CCX114157 (maintenance study of GSK1605786A) due to worsening of Crohn's disease requiring a treatment change may be eligible to participate. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety of GSK1605786A, as assessed by recording of adverse events, clinical laboratory parameters, vital signs and electrocardiogram. Secondary objectives will include assessments of effectiveness of long-term treatment with GSK1605786A. Health outcomes assessments will include changes in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ), SF-36v2, EQ-5D, Work and Productivity Activity Impairment-Crohn's Disease (WPAI-CD) and receipt of disability.
This study will describe the long-term safety and effectiveness, treatment patterns,and patient reported quality of life associated with ranibizumab treatment in routine clinical practice for all approved indication included in the local product label.
A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two doses (500 mg once daily and 500 mg twice daily) of GSK1605786A in maintaining remission over 52 weeks in adult subjects with Crohn's disease. Efficacy will be assessed by the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score. Eligible subjects will have achieved response (CDAI decrease of at least 100 points) and/or remission (CDAI less than 150) in a prior GSK sponsored induction study. The primary endpoint will be proportion of subjects in remission at both Weeks 28 and 52. Safety will be assessed by recording of adverse events, clinical laboratory parameters including liver function tests, vital signs and electrocardiogram. Population pharmacokinetics will evaluate the two doses of GSK1605786A. Health outcomes assessments will include changes in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ), SF-36v2, EQ-5D, Work Productivity and Activity Impairment - Crohn's Disease (WPAI-CD) and disability.
This is a Phase III multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two doses of GSK573719/GW642444 Inhalation Powder, GSK573719 Inhalation Powder via a Novel Dry Powder Inhaler and tiotropium via HandiHaler when administered once-daily over a 24-week treatment period in subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Subjects who meet eligibility criteria at Screening (Visit 1) will complete a 7 to10 day run-in period followed by a randomization visit (Visit 2) then a 24-week treatment period. There will be a total of 9 clinic study visits. A follow-up phone contact for adverse event assessment will be conducted approximately one week after the last study visit (Visit 9 or Early Withdrawal). The total duration of subject participation in the study will be approximately 26 weeks. The primary measure of efficacy is clinic visit trough (pre-bronchodilator and pre-dose) forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) on Treatment Day 169. Safety will be assessed by adverse events, 12-lead ECGs, vital signs, and clinical laboratory tests.
The purpose of this 52-week study is to evaluate the long-term safety (in terms of adverse events, COPD exacerbations, laboratory, ECG, and Holter findings, vital signs, use of rescue medication and lung function) of GSK573719/GW642444 Inhalation Powder 125/25mcg in subjects with COPD. The long-term safety of GSK573719 Inhalation Powder 125mcg will also be evaluated. A placebo arm is included to evaluate these products compared to an inactive control.
The purpose of this study is to determine if fluticasone furoate/vilanterol improves survival in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with a history of or increased risk of heart disease.
This is a phase III multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GSK573719/GW642444 Inhalation Powder, GSK573719 Inhalation Powder, GW642444 Inhalation Powder and Placebo when administered once-daily via a Novel Dry Powder Inhaler over a 24-week treatment period in subjects with COPD. Subjects who meet eligibility criteria at Screening (Visit 1) will complete a 7 to14 day run-in period followed by a randomization visit (Visit 2) then a 24-week treatment period. There will be a total of 9 clinic study visits. A follow-up phone contact for adverse event assessment will be conducted approximately one week after the last study visit (Visit 9 or Early Withdrawal). The total duration of subject participation in the study will be approximately 27 weeks. A subset of subjects at selected sites will also perform 24-hour serial spirometry and Holter monitoring during the study and provide serial blood samples for pharmacokinetic analysis. Sparse pharmacokinetic sampling for population pharmacokinetic analyses will be obtained from non-subset subjects. The primary measure of efficacy is clinic visit trough (pre-bronchodilator and pre-dose) FEV1 on Treatment Day 169. Safety will be assessed by adverse events, 12-lead ECGs, vital signs, clinical laboratory tests, and 24 hour Holter monitoring (subset only).
Primary Objective: - To demonstrate the non inferiority in term of overall survival (OS) of cabazitaxel 20 mg/m² (Arm A) versus cabazitaxel 25 mg/m² (Arm B) in combination with prednisone in patients with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (MCRPC) previously treated with a docetaxel-containing regimen. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate safety in the 2 treatment arms and to assess if cabazitaxel 20 mg/m² is better tolerated than cabazitaxel 25 mg/m². - To compare efficacy of cabazitaxel at 20 mg/m² and 25 mg/m² for: - Progression Free Survival (PFS) defined as the first occurrence of any of the following events: tumor progression per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST), PSA progression, pain progression or death due to any cause - Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA)-Progression - Pain progression - Tumor response in patients with measurable disease (RECIST 1.1). - PSA response - Pain response in patients with stable pain at baseline. - To compare Health-related Quality of Life (HRQL) - To assess the pharmacokinetics and pharmacogenomics of cabazitaxel
