There are about 1933 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Colombia. 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 evaluate if pregabalin relieves nerve pain associated with spinal cord injury compared to placebo (pill that contains no active medicine). This study will also evaluate the safety of pregabalin in this patient population.
Management of neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, post-herpetic neuralgia, human immunodeficiency virus-related peripheral neuropathy, and chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy.
This study is a multicenter, 9 months, open label extension study for all patients who are willing and eligible to continue from the pivotal, double-blind S308.3.002 study.
Desvenlafaxine succinate (DVS) is a potent and selective serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI). This study will investigate the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of DVS SR versus escitalopram in women with major depressive disorder (MDD) who are postmenopausal.
This study is a multicenter, randomized, double blind, parallel group study of 3 months' treatment with SLV308 administered as a monotherapy in patients with advance stage PD. An open label safety extension to this study is planned as a separate protocol for patients who are willing and eligible to participate.
Pre-Term Labor (prior to 37 weeks gestation) is the largest single cause of infant morbidity and mortality and is frequently associated with long-term disability. Oxytocin is a hormone produced by the body during labor. GSK221149A is an experimental drug that will be used to block the effects of oxytocin, and therefore pause or prevent contractions. In this study, patients with preterm labor will be given an intravenous infusion of GSK221149A over approximately 12 hours followed by an oral tablet in Parts A and B. In part C of this study, patients with preterm labor will be give an intravenous infusion of GSK221149A over approximately 48 hours. The use of a rescue tocolytic is allowed in the study.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban with warfarin for the prevention of blood clots in the brain (referred to as stroke) and blood clots in other parts of the body referred to as non-central nervous system systemic embolism) in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (a heart rhythm disorder).
The purpose of this study is to determine how the body defends itself against Leishmania (Viannia), a parasite that can cause a skin infection and skin sores. Certain cells in the immune system act more aggressively against Leishmania in people with mild Leishmania symptoms than in those who have long-term or recurring symptoms of the disease. Participants in the study will include people who currently have Leishmania infection, people who have had the infection in the past, and people who have never been exposed to the parasite. This study will enroll 220 adults, ages 18 to 70 years, at 3 sites in Colombia. Blood samples will be collected from volunteers at least once during the study. Participants will also undergo HIV testing. Volunteers will participate in up to 2 study visits, scheduled 2-3 weeks apart.
CIDEIM, Centro Internacional de Entrenamiento e Investigaciones Medicas, is conducting a research study about the disease Cutaneous Leishmaniasis, which is caused by the Leishmania parasite and causes skin sores. Researchers hope to find out how the human body defends against Leishmania. A total of 472 individuals, ages 7 to 70 years, belonging to one of the following groups will be included in this study: recurring disease, chronic disease, disease with no sign or symptoms (asymptomatic), and healthy individuals. Study procedures will include a questionnaire and buccal swab (swabbing of the inside of the cheek with a cotton or wooden applicator). In addition, asymptomatic and healthy individuals will provide a blood sample. Study participation will be up to 1.5 hours.
The purpose of this study is to determine what types of cells participate in the defense of humans against Leishmania (skin parasites). People 18-70 years of age who have leishmaniasis, have healed leishmanial lesions, or are healthy are being invited to participate in this study. Approximately 150 people will participate in the study. Participants will be asked to provide some general information about themselves and about skin sores, if they have any. A skin test will be performed and a blood sample will be obtained. This study involves up to 3 visits; the first visit will last up to 5 hours and the second visit will last for 30 minutes. The third visit may be scheduled within 3 days after the second visit.
