There are about 234 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Dominican Republic. 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.
A parallel-group randomized clinical trial was conducted with 45 patients of the Orthodontic Clinic of Universidad Iberoamericana's (UNIBE) Postgraduate Unit. The study hypothesis was that motivational interview plus oral hygiene instructions would be more effective in maintaining long-term oral hygiene in comparison with conventional oral hygiene instructions alone. A computer-generated list of numbers created with Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) V21.0 was used to random allocate participants into the experimental or the control group. Monthly oral hygiene instructions and a G.U.M. kit were given to the sample. Additionally, the experimental group received motivational interviewing sessions by a trained periodontist. Simplified Oral Hygiene Index, Gingival Index, Periodontal Probing Depth and Bleeding on Probing were recorded at baseline, three and six months after the beginning of the study. Repeated-measures analysis of variance and chi-squared test were conducted.
This observational study, a multicenter retrospective cohort database study, carried out in two medical centers, Centro Medico Bournigal (CMBO) in Puerto Plata and Centro Medico Punta Cana (CMPC) in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, sought to determine whether Ivermectin, at a weekly orally dose of 0.2 mg/kg, is an effective pre-exposure prophylactic method (PrEP) for the spread of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), in the healthcare workers. The study began on June 29, 2020 and ended on July 26, 2020 (4 weeks).
This is a Phase 2, open label, maximal usage PK and safety study of ARQ-151 cream 0.3% in pediatric subjects (ages 2 to 5 years old) with plaque psoriasis:
This prospective, multicountry, multicentre, non-interventional study plans to include patients who have undergone surgery for early-stage (IA to IIIB on the basis of pathologic criteria) non-squamous NSCLC up to 6 weeks prior to enrolment into the study. The main objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of EGFRm in patients with surgically resected early-stage (IA to IIIB) non-squamous NSCLC as there are limited data on its prevalence in this patient population.
The primary hypotheses are that coformulated pembrolizumab/vibostolimab is superior to pembrolizumab alone with respect to (1) overall survival (OS) in participants with programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥50%, TPS ≥1% and TPS 1% to 49%; and (2) progression-free survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR), in participants with PD-L1 TPS ≥1% and TPS ≥50%.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the pharmacokinetic profile of Medroxyprogesterone acetate following subcutaneous administration of 3 different doses of TV-46046 and a dose of Depo-subQ Provera in healthy female participants. The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate and compare the safety, local tolerability, and acceptability of a subcutaneous injection of 3 different doses of TV-46046 and a dose of Depo-subQ Provera in healthy female participants. The total duration of the study for each participant is expected to be up to 19.5 months.
The current understanding of dental caries has not been completely transferred into the clinical practice to control caries lesion progression (severity / activity) and the individual risk of caries. This situation led to the development of the CariesCare International CCI Caries Management System (2018), derived from ICCMS™- International Caries Classification and Management System (2012) and the ICDAS - International Caries Detection and Assessment System (2002) in a consensus among more than 45 cariologists, epidemiologists, public health professionals, researchers and cliniciansfrom all over the world. The consensus aimed to guide dentists and dental teams in clinical practice, facilitating the control of the caries process and the maintenance of oral health in their patients. The general lack of implementation of an updated management of dental caries is evident in Colombia, in the survey of 1094 clinicians, teachers and students, failures were reported to adopt related behaviours, motivation barriers (remuneration), opportunity (in terms of relevance, physical/infrastructure resources, time) and training. As an additional barrier, the Colombian Chapter of the Alliance for a Cavity-Free Future (ACFF), evidences the absence of a facilitating Oral Health Record (OHR), this situation lead to stablish a new Alliance between the Ministry of Health and Social Protection (MSPS) and the AFLC to develop an inter-institutional consensus at the national level, of a clinical history for diagnosis and management of lesions and caries risk. Finally, 55 institutions participated in this consensus, and we have just finished a pilot test of the forms to submit a proposal for national standardization from the MSPS. The aim of this multicentre case series is to assess after 3, 6 and 12 months in children oral health outcomes, caregivers' satisfaction and in dentists' process outcomes, after the implementation of the CCI system adapted for the COVID-19 era -non-aerosol generating procedures. Oral health outcomes will be evaluated in terms of: - Effectiveness of CCI to control bacterial plaque, caries progression and caries risk, and to achieve behavioural change in oral health in children. - Acceptance of CCI caries management adapted for COVID-19 through Treatment Evaluation Interventory in dentists, and in children/parents through satisfaction questionnaire. - Costs of CCI adapted for caries management, in economic terms, number and appointment time.
This is a Phase 2, open label, maximal usage PK and safety study of ARQ-151 cream 0.3% in pediatric subjects (ages 6 to 11 years old) with plaque psoriasis:
The primary objective of the randomized observer-blinded phase 2b/3 part of this trial is to demonstrate the efficacy of a 2-dose schedule of CVnCoV in the prevention of first episodes of virologically-confirmed cases of COVID-19 of any severity in SARS-CoV-2 naïve participants.
The mRNA-1273 vaccine is being developed to prevent COVID-19, the disease resulting from Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection. The study is designed to primarily evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, and effectiveness of mRNA-1273 vaccine administered as primary series and a booster dose (BD) to an adolescent population. The study will also evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of an mRNA-1273.222 vaccine against the SARS-CoV- 2 omicron variant as a primary series.
