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.
This study was designed to evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of an oral dual tyrosine kinase inhibitor, lapatinib, versus placebo in women with early-stage ErbB2-overexpressing breast cancer who have completed their primary neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy and have no clinical or radiographic evidence of disease.
To compare efficacy and safety of Sunitinib and Capecitabine in subjects with advanced breast cancer who failed both a taxane and an anthracycline chemotherapy regimen or failed with a taxane and for whom further anthracycline therapy is not indicated
Patients ≥ 70 years of age with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) frequently do not receive systemic cytotoxic chemotherapy due to concerns regarding their inability to tolerate treatment. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are agents with favorable toxicity profiles that have shown activity in patients with NSCLC. Erlotinib as a single-agent is currently approved for the treatment of patients with NSCLC whose disease has progressed following one prior course of chemotherapy and is currently being evaluated in NSCLC patients who have not received prior systemic treatment. However, when studied with combination chemotherapy in the first-line setting, continuous daily administration of erlotinib did not result in improved patient survival. Further clinical and in vitro data suggest that the sequencing of cytotoxic chemotherapy with EGFR TKIs is important to maximize their therapeutic potential when administered in combination. Satraplatin is an oral, investigational anticancer drug that is a member of the platinum-based class of chemotherapy drugs. Platinum-based drugs have been clinically proven to be one of the most effective classes of anticancer therapies. Unlike the currently marketed platinum-based drugs, satraplatin can be given orally and is currently being evaluated in a pivotal phase 3 clinical trial as 2nd-line therapy for patients with hormone refractory prostate cancer. The rationale for this study is to develop an active and well-tolerated oral regimen for patients ≥ 70 years of age with NSCLC. Administration of the study drugs will be sequenced with satraplatin administered on days 1-5 and erlotinib on days 8-21 of each 28-day cycle. The primary endpoint will be progression-free survival (PFS). Patients will be randomized to treatment with either the experimental regimen or single-agent continuous erlotinib.
The purpose of this study is to establish if a strategy of EBCPAP application in a subgroup of VLBWI, 800 to 1500g birthweight, decreases the need for mechanical ventilation in this group, without affecting mortality.
Primary: To evaluate the efficacy of satavaptan in the absence of concomitant diuretic drugs in reducing the recurrence of ascites. Secondary: To evaluate the tolerability and safety of satavaptan in the absence of concomitant diuretic drugs over a 52-week treatment period in patients with cirrhosis of the liver and recurrent ascites. The one-year double blind placebo controlled period is extended up to 2 years in a long term safety study (PASCCAL-2).
The purpose of this study was to look at the safety and effectiveness of a once-daily dose of tigecycline compared to ertapenem for the treatment of diabetic foot infections. The co-primary efficacy endpoints were not met.
Dose-ranging study of AVE2268 in the management of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus also receiving metformin. Its main objectives will be to assess the effects of several doses of AVE2268 on Mean Plasma Glucose. Its secondary objectives will be to assess the effects of AVE2268 on plasma glucose (fasting and post-prandial), and also the safety and tolerability of AVE2268.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of SSR149415 in the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder, defined as a change from baseline to visit 7 in the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. To evaluate the tolerability, safety and efficacy on disability and quality of life in patients with major depressive disorder.To evaluate plasma concentrations of SSR149415.
Assess tolerability of different dosing formulations (adult versus pediatric).
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of TMC125 200 mg twice daily as part of an antiretroviral therapy including TMC114/rtv and an investigator selected optimized background in HIV-1 infected patients who have participated in a DUET trial (TMC125-C206 or TMC125 C216) and have met the definition of virologic failure at Week 24 or later in these trials.
