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 assess how patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (heartburn) who are currently receiving treatment with a proton pump inhibitor but are still experiencing symptoms will benefit from a change in treatment.
To evaluate the overall effectiveness of aripiprazole intramuscular (IM) depot as maintenance treatment in patients with schizophrenia.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of pioglitazone, twice daily (BID), combined with metformin versus pioglitazone taken alone and metformin taken alone in treating Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter, prospective study to compare the efficacy and safety of the combination of VcR-CAP to that of R-CHOP in participants who have newly diagnosed mantle cell lymphoma grade II, III or IV and who are ineligible to undergo bone marrow transplantation.
Very low birth weight infants has increased dramatically their survival. Survival without neurologic disturbance varies a lot between centers.There is evidence that fluctuations in cerebral blood flow influences the appearance of intraventricular hemorrhage and itself implies a detrimental neurologic developing.The electroencephalography is the result of electric base membrane activity on rest, and it's influenced by the blood flow either. The Amplitude-integrated electroencephalography is a novel tool, that is capable to be continuously used at the patient bed and is easily to be read by the trained clinician.The hypothesis is that common procedures as Surfactant instilation, Indomethacin and Aminophyline infusion as the appearance of apneas alters the aEEG register. It is a prospective study that tries to recruit 10 < 30 weeks of gestational age with aprofen consent to monitorize the aEEG since birth to the seventh day of live.
The primary objective was to compare the efficacy of once daily [q.d] subcutaneous [s.c.] injections of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) with q.d. s.c. injections of Enoxaparin for the prevention of Venous Thromboembolic Events [VTE] in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the safety of AVE5026 in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery, and to document AVE5026 exposure in this population.
Retinoblastoma is a childhood tumor of the retina that affects approximately 1 in 18,000 children. Retinoblastoma is more prevalent in Central America, where most patients present with advanced intraocular and extraocular disease. Therefore, we have formed collaboration with Central American investigators to provide us with frozen retinoblastoma tumors from patients undergoing routine enucleation. The objective of this protocol is to begin to identify the mutations and gene expression changes that occur in retinoblastoma cells following RB1 gene inactivation in order to more effectively target chemotherapy for treating bilateral retinoblastoma.
The purpose of this academic lead study is to determine if a treatment strategy of early intensive blood pressure (BP) lowering compared to conservative BP lowering policy in patients with elevated blood pressure within 6 hours of acute intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) improves the outcome of death and disability at 3 months after onset.
Amonafide is a DNA intercalating agent and inhibitor of topoisomerase II that has been extensively studied in patients with malignant solid tumors. Amonafide has also been studied in patients with AML. The purpose of this study is to assess the relative efficacy and safety of amonafide in combination with cytarabine compared to daunorubicin with cytarabine in subjects with documented secondary AML.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefits and risks of lixisenatide (AVE0010), in comparison to placebo, as an add-on treatment to basal insulin with or without metformin over a period of 24 weeks of treatment, followed by an extension. The primary objective is to assess the effects of lixisenatide when added to basal insulin on glycemic control in terms of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reduction at Week 24. The secondary objectives are to assess the effects of lixisenatide when added to basal insulin on body weight, 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) after standardized meal challenge test, percentage of patients reaching HbA1c less than 7 percent (%), percentage of patients reaching HbA1c less than or equal to 6.5%, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), change in 7-point self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) profiles, change in basal insulin and total insulin doses; to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and anti-lixisenatide antibody development.
