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 was to determine whether the initiation of a vildagliptin plus metformin combination regimen would result in more durable glycemic control than metformin monotherapy in treatment-naïve patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
In this study, patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who are being treated with methotrexate will receive 2 intravenous treatments with either PF-05280586 or Rituxan (Rituximab) or MabThera (Rituximab). During the course of the study, the effects of the drugs will be assessed by sampling the levels of drug in the blood, blood cell counts, and by comparing these levels among the different treatments. Safety, tolerability and immunologic response also will be evaluated throughout.
The purpose of this study is to compare the antitumor activity of everolimus plus best supportive care versus placebo plus best supportive care in patients with progressive nonfunctional neuroendocrine tumor (NET) of gastrointestinal (GI) or lung origin without a history of, or current symptoms of carcinoid syndrome.
This study is intended to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Certolizumab Pegol (CZP) in combination with Methotrexate (MTX) for sustaining clinical response achieved in study RA0055 Period 1 [NCT01519791]. Subjects entering this study RA0055 Period 2 achieved sustained Low Disease Activity at Week 52 in study RA0055 Period 1.
This study is intended to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Certolizumab Pegol (CZP) in combination with Methotrexate (MTX) for inducing and sustaining clinical response in the treatment of Disease Modifying Antirheumatic Drug (DMARD)-naïve adults with early active Rheumatoid Arthritis.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of Takeda's tetravalent dengue vaccine (TDV) (previously DENVax) administered subcutaneously in healthy adults and children. In addition the antibody response to the four dengue virus serotypes will be evaluated.
The purpose of the study is to assess the hemostatic efficacy and safety of BAX 326 in subjects with severe (FIX level < 1%) or moderately severe (FIX level 1-2%) hemophilia B undergoing major or minor elective or emergency surgical, dental or other invasive procedures.
Alirocumab (SAR236553/REGN727) is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9). Primary Objective of the study: To evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of alirocumab in high cardiovascular risk participants with hypercholesterolemia not adequately controlled with their current lipid modifying therapy (LMT). Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels after 24 weeks of treatment in comparison with placebo. - To evaluate the effect of alirocumab in comparison with placebo on LDL-C at other time points. - To evaluate the effects of alirocumab on other lipid parameters.
We conducted a randomized trial to determine the effect of providing families from Bogota, Colombia, with a one month supply of one of two cooking oils, sunflower oil vs. soybean oil, on whole blood and saliva fatty acid composition of children. The aims were: 1) assess the effect of the oils on whole blood fatty acid composition in children, 2) assess the correlation between whole blood and saliva to evaluate if fatty acids measured in saliva would be adequate biomarkers of intake. The study was conducted in the context of an ongoing cohort study of school children from Bogotá, Colombia (HUM00043252). We conducted an intervention trial of 4 week duration. Participant families were randomly assigned to either sunflower oil or soybean oil. Families were visited two times during the 4 week period. We collected dietary information from the person in the household in charge of food preparation, and from the child. At the end of the intervention we collected information on whether or not they liked the oil and whether they would be willing to use it, exclusively, for two years, to assess acceptability for a longer intervention. We also collected two finger prick blood samples and two saliva/cheek cells samples from the child, at the beginning and at the end of the study, to evaluate compliance and to assess the impact of the intervention.
This 4 month, open-label study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of fingolimod 0.5 mg in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and generate additional data in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patient population that closely resembles the clinical population seen in routine medical care.
