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 is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of niraparib plus pembrolizumab versus placebo plus pembrolizumab as maintenance therapy in participants with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have achieved stable disease (SD), partial response (PR), or complete response (CR) following completion of standard of care first-line platinum-based induction chemotherapy with pembrolizumab. The primary hypotheses are: participants with confirmed diagnosis of NSCLC could benefit from niraparib plus pembrolizumab versus placebo plus pembrolizumab with respect to Progression-free survival (PFS) and Overall survival (OS).
Functional electrical stimulation is a modality of motor rehabilitation that consists of the programmed application of bursts of electrical current to the affected neuromuscular region that aims to improve muscle strength, increase the range of motion, facilitate movement control and decrease spasticity. The present study aimed to measure the changes in the biomechanics of the gait of people with Stroke after training with functional electrical stimulation for the lower extremities.

The current coronavirus disease pandemic has posed a problem and a challenge for health systems globally. In the framework of a pandemic, a diagnosis is a key tool in containing and monitoring disease outbreaks. In this pandemic, the qPCR technique has become vitally important in virus detection, due to its wide detection and quantification range, and the high levels of sensitivity and specificity it presents. The methodology for diagnosing coronavirus by qPCR requires the prior extraction of viral genetic material, which is carried out using commercial kits created for this purpose. Currently, the high demand for supplies to carry out this technique has generated reagent shortage problems, including commercial kits for the extraction of viral genetic material. This research aims to evaluate a solution called AAA-Safe and its method, developed to optimize the diagnostic process, eliminating and replacing the viral RNA extraction stage. We hope that this alternative can be implemented in any molecular diagnostic laboratory, in order to speed up the delivery of a fast and safe diagnosis.
This multicenter, open-label, single-arm trial will evaluate the anti-tumor activity of ZW25 (zanidatamab) monotherapy in subjects with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-amplified, inoperable and advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer (BTC), including intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), extra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC), and gallbladder cancer (GBC).
This study will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of AVP-786 (deudextromethorphan hydrobromide [d6-DM]/quinidine sulfate [Q]) compared to placebo for the treatment of agitation in participants with dementia of the Alzheimer's type.
The present study aimed to investigate the effects of a single nutritional preventive session previous to a critical period linked to fat gain in university students with overweight and obesity, emulating a nutritional session of a public health system.
This study aims to determine the efficacy of MAGO (Online Self-care Training Program for Psychologists), a person-directed, individual, occupational intervention via videoconference in six sessions on a weekly basis. By promoting self-care behaviors, it is expected to reduce burnout levels and to increase work engagement in clinical psychologists working in Chile.
Gastrointestinal abnormalities are present in more than 80% of critical patients, and their management has taken an important importance in intensive care unit (ICU), since it can largely determine the clinical outcome, costs and long-term prognosis in This group of patients. Only the constipation in the critical patient has been related to the failure of weaning of the mechanical ventilator, an increase in mechanical ventilation time, and with the increase of the stay in the ICU. In general, most critical health conditions cause a decrease in the motility of the gastrointestinal tract that intrinsically can contribute to constipation. This is explained by the increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines, increased activity of the sympathetic system, the use of vasopressors, high and prolonged doses of opiates, among others, which can reduce gastric emptying and delay motility. These gastrointestinal abnormalities may be associated with an increase in intra-abdominal pressure, reduced nutritional intake, bacterial hyperproliferation in the digestive tract, intestinal mucosal injury and bacterial translocation through the injured and / or inflamed mucosa. In addition, patients who experience constipation often have gastroparesis and paresis of the ileum, conditions that hinder the progression of nutritional support enterally and worsen the patient's clinical picture. In spite of being quite common in the ICU, the impact is not known in depth, which implies that these alterations are usually not prevented and on the other hand when treating their pharmacological and non-pharmacological management is highly variable because, for a On the other hand, staff turnover (intensivist physician) and on the other hand because there are no protocols that reduce these problems. To provide comprehensive care in critical patient units, according to the best available evidence in order to reduce the variation in daily care, clinical guidelines and protocols are applied to manage the various specific problems that affect this group. of patients One way to address the complexity of these problems is through the implementation of care packages, which have taken relevance in the prevention of characteristic events of high mortality and morbidity. It is in this scenario, where the clinical pharmacist plays an important role in the development of protocols, packages and their compliance. The clinical pharmacist is dedicated to the review of the therapy of each patient, through pharmacological conciliation actions with the attending physician, actively participating in the daily round of the multidisciplinary team and at the same time developing "professional support activities" that include , reviews of adverse events associated with medications, education, auditing, research, development of guidelines and institutional protocols for the use of effective and safe medications, with the objective of reducing mortality and its associated costs, thus improving the quality of the Attention. Given the importance of the problem, it is that this work proposes that the implementation and active dissemination of a constipation bundle/protocol guided by a clinical pharmacist ensures adherence to the strategy in the treatment team and a decrease in the incidence of constipation in the critical patient of the ICU of a university hospital. To fulfill this objective, a quasi-experimental study was designed in which the first stage will be diagnostic observational and a second part of the interventional type, in order to evaluate the effect of adherence to the bundle/protocol on the incidence of constipation in critically ill patients admitted to a ICU of a university hospital for a period of 6 months.
