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.
APEX-FIH is a first-in-human, open-label prospective multicenter study of the TrelliX Embolic Coil System for use in embolization of the medium to large, ruptured or unruptured cerebral aneurysms
The study is a Phase 1 Open-label Two-stage, Safety and Tolerability Study with Cancer Type-specific Cohorts, Evaluating Subcutaneous Administration of Andes-1537 for Injection in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors that are Refractory to Standard Therapy or For Which No Standard Therapy Is Available. Patients with unresectable solid tumors that are refractory or have failed standard therapy and are deemed non-eligible or intolerant to further therapy or for which no standard therapy is available will be included in 5 cancer type-specific parallel cohorts. The following tumor types will be evaluated for potential inclusion in each cancer type-specific cohort: gallbladder & biliary tract carcinoma; cervical carcinoma; gastric carcinoma; pancreatic carcinoma, and colorectal carcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to compare the drug levels, immunogenicity and safety of Nivolumab Process D to Nivolumab Process C after complete resection of stage IIIa/b/c/d or stage IV melanoma.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and antidrug antibody (ADA) response for MEDI8897 in healthy late preterm and term infants who are 35 weeks or greater gestational age and entering their first RSV season.
Dementia is a syndrome characterized by cognitive and behavioral impairment in older adults, which usually manifests as memory loss, communication difficulties or changes in mood. Dementias affect around 50 million people in the world, having an impact on their ability to carry out their daily activities, often requiring family and social support. The main cause of dementia in Chile and in the world is Alzheimer's disease (AD), which is characterized by affecting large areas of the cerebral cortex and hippocampus, manifesting mainly in alterations in selective memory. The pathogenesis of AD involves the neuronal accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) proteins in the form of extracellular plaques, and tau, which gives rise to neurofibrillary tangles. AD diagnosis is usually made based on clinical criteria, however, the accurate diagnosis of AD is clinical-neuropathological. Several studies have supported the neuropathological study based on the presence of Aβ and tau proteins in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), using them as biomarkers of the disease, which has allowed updating the definition of AD based on them. However, our country does not perform a study of dementia biomarkers in CSF, which is essential for the diagnosis of certainty of the pathology. The objective of this project is to evaluate a set of biomarkers of EA (tau, ptau, Aβ) in CSF and blood of elderly patients who will undergo surgery in the Clinical Hospital of the University of Chile (HCUCH) and in whom it is performed lumbar puncture (LP) by anesthesia, to detect those patients who have these CSF biomarkers and who show lower performance in cognitive evaluations. For this, it is intended to mount a biobank of CSF samples with samples of 30 subjects by conducting a clinical pilot study. Patients will be evaluated prior to surgery with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) to determine the presence of cognitive impairment, and CSF samples, obtained by LP, will be analyzed by immunodetection of Aβ40, Aβ42, tau and ptau with multiplex technology. In addition, tau will be detected in platelets by Western Blot of blood samples from patients, and the relationship between plateau tau levels and biomarkers in CSF will be evaluated. Finally, the correlation between performance in cognitive assessment and levels of biomarkers in blood and CSF will be evaluated, in order to assess the usefulness of these markers in the detection of the presence of cognitive impairment.
In this trial, undergraduate medical students will be randomised to undergo training using a virtual reality simulator (BodyInteract®) or a standard small-group interactive discussion of a clinical scenario. Adherence to current clinical recommendations will be considered as primary outcomes for this study.
This study will treat patients with advanced NSCLC with EGFR or HER2 mutation who have progressed following prior therapy. This is the first time this drug is tested in patients, and so it will help to understand what type of side effects may occur with the drug treatment. It will also measure the levels of drug in the body and preliminarily assess its anti-cancer activity as monotherapy.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of imipenem/cilastatin/relebactam (IMI/REL) in participants from birth to less than 18 years of age with confirmed or suspected gram-negative bacterial infection. Participants are expected to require hospitalization through completion of intravenous (IV) study intervention, and have at least one of the following primary infection types: hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia (HABP) or ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (VABP); complicated intra-abdominal infection (cIAI); or complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI). Participants will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio to receive IMI/REL or active control. This study will also evaluate the efficacy of IMI/REL by assessing all-cause mortality at Day 28 post-randomization, as well as clinical and microbiological response to treatment. It will also evaluate the pharmacokinetics of IMI/REL.
This study was performed to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of vaginal rings that contain DHEA, testosterone, or combinations of both androgens, in comparison to the oral administration of DHEA and the transdermal administration of testosterone.
This is a multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial with an adaptive design assessing the efficacy of setting the ventilator based on measurements of respiratory mechanics (recruitability and effort) to reduce Day 60 mortality in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The CAVIARDS study is also a basket trial; a basket trial design examines a single intervention in multiple disease populations. CAVIARDS consists of an identical 2-arm mechanical ventilation protocol implemented in two different study populations (COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 patients). As per a typical basket trial design, the operational structure of both the COVID-19 substudy (CAVIARDS-19) and non-COVID-19 substudy (CAVIARDS-all) is shared (recruitment, procedures, data collection, analysis, management, etc.).
