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 purpose of this study is to gather information about the use of an investigational drug called Ramucirumab in adenocarcinomas of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction.
The aim of the present study is to prove efficacy and safety of a new contraceptive patch.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of lenalidomide as a first line therapy in treating patients with B-cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. This study will compare the effects (good and bad) of lenalidomide with chlorambucil.
To investigate the potential benefits of a new oral contraceptive (SH T00658ID) on alleviating complaints of dysmenorrhea associated with oral contraceptive use.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of peginterferon beta-1a in reducing the annualized relapse rate (ARR) in participants with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) at 1 year. The secondary objectives of this study are to determine whether peginterferon beta-1a, at 1 year when compared with placebo, is effective in reducing the total number of new or newly enlarging T2 hyperintense lesions on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, reducing the proportion of participants who relapse, and slowing the progression of disability.
This is a randomized trial to evaluate the clinical benefit of sorafenib 400 mg twice daily and erlotinib 150 mg once a day versus sorafenib 400 mg twice daily and placebo erlotinib once daily in subjects with unresectable advanced or metastatic Child-Pugh A HCC. Patients who are candidates for potentially curative intervention (i.e. surgical resection or local ablation) are not eligible for this study.
The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of an investigational drug called SAM-531 at three dosage levels. Subjects will receive either one of the 3 dosage levels of SAM-531, donepezil or placebo for the first 24 weeks of the study (period I). Subjects who receive placebo for period I will be assigned to receive the highest dose of SAM-531 SAM-531 for the remaining 28 weeks of the study, while subjects who received one of the three SAM-531 dosage levels or donepezil in period I will continue with the same study drug (period II).
The purpose of this study is to prospectively determine the rotavirus VP7/VP4 genotypes associated with moderate to severe disease (requiring emergency room (ER) consult or hospitalization) in a large public hospital from Valparaiso and another from Santiago.
The intraperitoneal repair has been proven safe for the repair of incisional hernia and is accepted, together with the subfascial or retromuscular repair as the "gold-standard" for the repair of incisional hernia. However no studies have convincingly proven that this approach is better than the on-lay repair. The authors believe that the intraperitoneal repair performs better than the on-lay repair for incisional hernia.
The purpose of this study is to examine the genetic contribution to the mechanism of lapaquistat acetate- induced hepatic abnormalities.
