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.
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the effectiveness of treatment with Bacillus clausii probiotic strain (Enterogermina) in combination with oral rehydration therapy (ORT) for a period of 5 days, in the duration of acute community-acquired diarrhea in Latin American children. Secondary Objectives: To evaluate the clinical safety of Enterogermina in acute diarrhea in children and to demonstrate its effectiveness on stool frequency, stool consistency, and number of vomiting episodes. To evaluate parent's overall global assessment. To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Enterogermina in norovirus acute gastroenteritis (AGE).
Vabomere™, (meropenem-vaborbactam) is being compared to the Best Available Therapy in the treatment of adults with selected serious infections due to Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae
The main objective of this study is to compare a Dual Antithrombotic Therapy (DAT) regimen of 110mg dabigatran etexilate b.i.d. plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor (110mg dabigatran etexilate (DE) DAT) and 150mg dabigatran etexilate b.i.d. plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor (150mg DE-DAT) with a Triple Antithrombotic Therapy (TAT) combination of warfarin plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor plus Aspirin (ASA) <= 100mg once daily (warfarin-TAT) in patients with Atrial Fibrillation that undergo a PCI with stenting (elective or due to an Acute Coronary Syndrome). The study aims to show non-inferiority of each dose of DE-DAT when compared to Warfarin-TAT in terms of safety. Safety will be determined by comparing the rates of bleeding events, assessed using the modified International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis classification of Major Bleeding and Clinically Relevant Non Major Bleeding Events.
The study evaluates the efficacy of fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium bromide/vilanterol (FF/UMEC/VI) to reduce the annual rate of moderate and severe exacerbations compared with dual therapy of FF/VI or UMEC/VI in subjects with COPD. Published studies which assessed the use of an 'open' triple therapy (use of Inhaled Corticosteroid [ICS]/ Long-acting Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists [LAMA])/ Long Acting Beta-Agonist [LABA] delivered via multiple inhalers) in moderate-severe COPD patients, reported improvements in lung function, Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), hospitalization rates and rescue medication use, compared to dual therapy (ICS/LABA) or LAMA alone. These studies have also shown similar safety profile with dual or monotherapy doses for periods of up to one year. Given the clinical experience with FF, UMEC and VI, and that the associated risks with these compounds are anticipated from their known pharmacology, the potential benefit of a new therapy option in patients with moderate to severe COPD supports the further development of the closed triple combination (delivered via one inhaler). In the current study subjects meeting all inclusion/exclusion criteria will complete 2-week run-in period; 52 week treatment period and a 1-week safety follow-up period. Eligible subjects will be randomized to one of the following double-blind treatment groups FF/UMEC/VI 100 micrograms (mcg)/62.5 mcg/25 mcg once daily (QD), FF/VI 100 mcg/25 mcg QD, or UMEC/VI 62.5 mcg/25 mcg QD
The primary objective of the study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of veliparib in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel (C/P) compared to placebo plus C/P in participants with a Breast Cancer Gene 1 or 2 (BRCA1; BRCA2) mutation in Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic or locally advanced unresectable breast cancer. The secondary objectives of the study are to assess overall survival (OS), clinical benefit rate (CBR) through the end of Week 24, objective response rate (ORR) and PFS on subsequent therapy (PFS2) in participants treated with veliparib in combination with C/P versus placebo in combination with C/P.
A 52-Week, Multicentre, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel Group, Placebo Controlled, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Tralokinumab in Adults and Adolescents with Asthma Inadequately Controlled on Inhaled Corticosteroid Plus Long-Acting β2-Agonist
Nutritional deficiencies can lead to a number of health problems in children. In Latin America and the Caribbean countries, are registered so much problems of insufficient ingestion of food as of imbalances in the composition of the diet. These latter are expressed in the absence of micronutrients (iron, iodine, zinc, vitamin A), becoming a major health burden in developing countries. Being the globally's leading risk factor for disease and death, with hundreds of millions of pregnant women and young children particularly affected. Justification: In Nariño, Colombia higher levels of malnutrition are presented with respect to country, just as micronutrient deficiency in children 1 to 4 years is higher than the national average. Most of these households are poor families with restrictions on access to food sources of these micronutrients, which is reported in a consumption of fruits, vegetables, milk products and meat, less than the national average. In this place is developing a project that aims to improve potato in higher yield, nutrition and resistance, for contribute to increase food security of native communities. Objective: Evaluate the effect on iron levels generated by the inclusion of native potato in the diet of children aged 2-5 years in institutional beneficiaries modality ICBF, in the municipalities of Carlosama, Guachucal, Tuquerres, Cumbal and Pasto. Nariño. Colombia Methods: Design: A cluster randomized controlled trial. Open label Setting: 6 clusters, municipalities of Carlosama, Guachucal, Tuquerres, Cumbal and Pasto (two towns), which will be randomly assigned to 2 groups: the treatment group that receives native potato, and the control group that receives traditional potato, that will be include in the usual Institution meal Participants: children from 2 to 5 years, beneficiaries of programs in institutional modality of ICBF, in the municipalities of Carlosama, Guachucal, Tuquerres, Cumbal and Pasto. Main outcome measures: serum ferritin and transferrin levels The study was conducted in the form of institutional programs ICBF, in the municipalities of Carlosama, Guachucal, Túquerres, Cumbal and Pasto. Colombia. One hypothesis to a queue based on the changes that occur over time after surgery in the mean values (μ) of serum ferritin in the treatment group compared with the control group. A sample size of 212 children were calculated. The study has been presented and approved by the Ethics Committee of the Faculty of Medicine of the National University of Colombia and the Institutional Review Board of the participating institution. All parents of participating children must sign a written form to accept the voluntary participation of their child in the study.
The HeartMate PHP is a catheter-based pump designed to provide partial left heart circulatory support. The study will assess the safety and performance of the HeartMate PHP in supporting patients who are hemodynamically unstable, or at risk of being hemodynamically unstable, while undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), such as coronary stent placement.
Prostate cancer is considered the fourth most common malignancy cancer in America. However, in Colombia the incidence is higher, and it is considered the second cause of death among men for malignance diseases. In the framework of clinical localized prostate cancer there is a controversy regarding the best predictors of risk and the best treatment options. The actual literature is discussing the possibility of underestimate the disease and actual tools are not sufficient for proper characterization. Is in this context that extended pelvic lymphadenectomy emerges as a stratification tool in prostate cancer that defines the real commitment of the disease. The investigators need to know the characteristics that the disease has on the investigators community so the investigators can generate appropriate therapeutic approach. Thus, the present prospective observational-descriptive multicenter study, want to determine in three referral centers in Bogotá Colombia , the frequency of pelvic node involvement in patients with localized clinical prostate cancer from the stratification achieved by pelvic lymphadenectomy extended.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the 123 women emergency phone line of Medellin (Colombia) leads to a reduction in the violence suffered by women, as well as in their psychological wellbeing and attitudes towards violence.
