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.
This study will assess the rates of Sustained Virological Response following anti-viral therapy with Peg-Interferon plus Ribavirin in patients that have been liver transplanted with recurrent Hepatitis C and treated with Neoral or tacrolimus.
This study is an economic evaluation of Symbicort (Budesonide/formoterol) as maintenance and reliever therapy (SMART) versus its competitive alternatives. The aims of this study are: - To estimate the relative effectiveness of each one of the alternatives in the management of patients with moderate to severe asthma through a systematic review for the following outcomes: - Cumulative incidence of asthma severe exacerbations symptoms - Safety of each alternative (frequency of adverse events and complications due to the medications) - To estimate the direct medical costs of treating with each pharmacologic alternative: Symbicort as SMART versus increased use of inhaled corticosteroids or Adding long-acting inhaled beta 2 agonist plus inhaled corticosteroids. - To create a decision analysis model (decision tree) that allows comparisons between the alternatives on expected values and costs. - To calculate the average and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios. - To carry out a sensitivity analysis to test de robustness of the cost-effectiveness results allowing for reasonable changes in expected values and costs.
The observation period for each patient covered an initial treatment period with Avelox® plus optional 2 long-term follow-up periods (6 and 12 months).For each patient, the physician documented data at any initial visit (baseline) and at least one short-term follow-up visit (=initial treatment period).Optionally, long-term follow-ups (6 and 12 months) were documented, and a patient questionnaire was filled in.
This 24-week open-label extension study is designed to provide additional long-term safety data up to a total of 1-year for patients rolling over from the core study, and to collect further efficacy and tolerability data for all the patients, irrespective whether they have an acute flare of gout or not. Patients will be treated on demand with canakinumab (ACZ885) in this extension study.
The purpose of this study is to gather information about the use of an investigational drug called Ramucirumab in adenocarcinomas of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of lenalidomide as a first line therapy in treating patients with B-cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. This study will compare the effects (good and bad) of lenalidomide with chlorambucil.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of peginterferon beta-1a in reducing the annualized relapse rate (ARR) in participants with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) at 1 year. The secondary objectives of this study are to determine whether peginterferon beta-1a, at 1 year when compared with placebo, is effective in reducing the total number of new or newly enlarging T2 hyperintense lesions on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, reducing the proportion of participants who relapse, and slowing the progression of disability.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of various doses of YM150 (the experimental drug) compared to enoxaparin in the prevention of venous thromboembolism in patients that are undergoing elective hip replacement surgery.
This is a randomized trial to evaluate the clinical benefit of sorafenib 400 mg twice daily and erlotinib 150 mg once a day versus sorafenib 400 mg twice daily and placebo erlotinib once daily in subjects with unresectable advanced or metastatic Child-Pugh A HCC. Patients who are candidates for potentially curative intervention (i.e. surgical resection or local ablation) are not eligible for this study.
This study compared the lung effects of indacaterol to those of tiotropium in patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) over a 12 week period.
