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.
The primary study objective was to compare the rate of "all hypoglycemia" (composite outcome of the following hypoglycemia events: symptomatic hypoglycemia episodes, low continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) excursions confirmed by fingerstick blood glucose (FSBG), low FSBG readings performed at other times) between children treated with Lantus (insulin glargine) and Neutral Protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulin. Secondary objectives were to compare insulin glargine and NPH in terms of: - rates of specific types of hypoglycemia: symptomatic, severe, nocturnal, nocturnal symptomatic, and severe nocturnal symptomatic hypoglycemia - HbA1c change from baseline to end-of-treatment, and HbA1c at end-of-treatment - percentage of patients reaching HbA1c less than 7.5% (target value) at end of treatment - average blood glucose over whole trial and at end of trial, as estimated by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), and blood glucose variability
The Primary Objective was to assess the efficacy of celivarone for the prevention of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) interventions or death. Secondary Objectives were: - To assess the tolerability and safety of the different dose regimens of celivarone in the selected population. - To document SSR149744 plasma levels during the study.
Evaluation of heparin/edoxaban tosylate (DU176b) versus heparin/warfarin in preventing recurrence of blood clots in patients with acute symptomatic deep-vein blood clots in the legs and/or blood clots in the lungs.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the GI Endobarrier Liner is safe and effective.
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of sifalimumab in adult subjects with active systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) or active dermatomyositis (DM) or polymyositis (PM) who participated in the following clinical studies: MI-CP151, MI-CP152, or MICP179.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate benefits and risks of lixisenatide (AVE0010), in comparison to sitagliptin, as an add-on treatment to metformin, in obese (body mass index [BMI] greater than or equal to 30 kilogram per square meter [kg/m^2]) type 2 diabetic patients less than 50 years of age, over a period of 24 weeks of treatment. The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of lixisenatide, in comparison to sitagliptin, as an add-on treatment to metformin on a composite endpoint of glycemic control in terms of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and body weight, at Week 24. Secondary objectives are to assess the effects of lixisenatide, in comparison to sitagliptin, as an add-on treatment to metformin on absolute changes in HbA1c values and body weight; fasting plasma glucose (FPG); plasma glucose, insulin, C-peptide, glucagon, and proinsulin during a 2-hour standardized meal test; insulin resistance assessed by homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR); beta cell function assessed by homeostatic model assessment of beta-cell function (HOMA-beta); to evaluate safety, tolerability, and anti-lixisenatide antibody development.
Background - Lentigines are usually the first sign of photoaging and may produce a significant impact on patients' quality of life. - There is no a treatment of choice for this condition. - Solar lentigines and melasma share similar physiopathologic characteristics. - The triple combination (TC) cream (hydroquinone 4%, tretinoin 0.05%, and fluocinolone acetonide 0.01%) has been effective and safe for the treatment of melasma and other hyperpigmented lesions. Hypothesis * The TC cream will be effective and safe for the treatment of solar lentigines on the back of the hands. Patients and methods - 22 patients with solar lentigines were selected and their right hand or left hand were selected at random to be treated with either TC cream or tretinoin 0.05% cream once daily for up 12 weeks. - Patients were instructed to apply both creams on the whole back of the hand and not only in the lentigines, and to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 50+, UVA-PF 28) daily in both hands. - Clinical assessments of Target Lesion Pigmentation, Physician's Global Assessment of Improvement and a Subject's Self-Assessment questionnaire were collected for data analysis at weeks 4, 8, and 12 after starting the treatment and 3 month post-treatment. - Statistical methods: The ordinally scaled efficacy measures underwent rank transformation and were analyzed by analysis of variance to test the null hypothesis of no differences among treatments. We performed Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon tests and the XLSTAT 2009 software was used.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the benefits and risks of lixisenatide (AVE0010), in comparison to placebo, as an add-on treatment to insulin glargine and metformin with or without thiazolidinediones (TZDs), over a period of 24 weeks of treatment. The primary objective is to assess the effects of lixisenatide in comparison to placebo, when added to insulin glargine and metformin, on glycemic control in terms of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reduction (absolute change) at Week 24. The secondary objectives are to assess the effects of lixisenatide on the percentage of patients reaching HbA1c less than (<) 7 percent (%) and less than or equal to (<=) 6.5%, plasma glucose (fasting, postprandial during a standardized meal challenge test, 7-point self monitored profiles), body weight, insulin glargine doses, to evaluate safety and tolerability (including anti-lixisenatide antibody assessment), and to assess the impact on treatment satisfaction using the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (state) (DTSQs) in the participating countries where it is validated.
This is a phase 3 study to compare the clinical benefit of MDV3100 versus placebo in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer who have been previously treated with docetaxel-based chemotherapy.
The main objective of the study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the EndoBarrier Flow Restrictor in the glycemic control of diabetes in subjects with Type 2 diabetes. The primary efficacy endpoint is an assessment of glycemic control at week 24 or last assessment measured via HbA1c.
