There are about 21071 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Spain. 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 project involves a two-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) designed to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a mobile application aimed at prescribing resistance training for children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (Diactive-1). The program will span 24 weeks, with a minimum weekly frequency of 3 sessions. The researchers aim to recruit 52 participants but will enroll additional participants to account for potential withdrawals and ensure compliance with the desired sample size. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the impact of the Diactive-1 mobile application on insulin requirements in children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes. Additionally, the researchers will investigate the effects of the Diactive-1 program on secondary parameters such as glycemic control, cardiometabolic indicators, physical fitness, and daily physical activity, among others. The hypothesis posits that personalized training through a mobile application, primarily focusing on muscular strength, will effectively reduce the daily insulin dosage in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
Medtronic is sponsoring Enlighten: The EV-ICD Post Approval Registry, to further confirm safety and effectiveness of EV-ICD in routine clinical practice, following commercial release of EV-ICD devices.
The present preliminary randomized trial will be performed to compare the effectiveness of telephyisiotherapy plus physical exercises versus other conventional techniques (electromyographic biofeedback or conventional physiotherapy). Participants will be chosen from Hospital Sagrado Corazón de Málaga, after the approval of the centre. One hundred and twenty patients with hemiplegia as a consequence of an ischaemic stroke will take part in the study. Selection criteria included to be older than 65 years, with two months of evolution after the stroke and with the left paretic side. In addition, they had to have a positive diagnosis of COVID-19. Positive cases will be confirmed by PCR. Due to the local sanitary regulations, all patients may require home confinement during 1 month without possibility to continue their rehabilitation program. Physiological interventions started 20 days after the first negative PCR test. Participants will be randomize in three different intervention groups, conventional therapy (n=40), carried out in the Hospital, biofeedback therapy (n=40), also conducted in the Hospital, and Telephyisiotherapy (TP) plus physical activity (n=40). The intervention period will last for three months, and participants will be re-evaluated 30 days later to confirm treatment effectiveness. Measurements Electromyographic activity and hand strength The mean electromyographic (EMG) activity will be determined with the Neurotrans Myoplus 2 Pro System (Verity Medical Ltd, UK), the same instrument used to carry out the intervention. The isometric strength (Nw) of the hand will be assessed with a hand-held digital dynamometer (Smedley digital hand dynamometer, RMS Ltd., UK). Functional tests In the present work, the Fugl-Meyer will be used to determine the functional status of patients with stroke. The patients with better functionality had superior scores. In addition, the ability of the patients to perform basic daily living activities was determined through the Barthel index. Considering the advanced age of the participants, three extra-scales will be determined: the FRAIL scale, the short physical performance battery (SPPB) and the Strength, assistance in walking, rise from a chair, climb stairs and falls (SARC-F) scale will be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to understand the safety and effectiveness of the study drug, Dysport® when compared with placebo in preventing episodic migraine. A migraine is a headache with severe throbbing pain or a pulsating sensation, usually on one side of the head, and is often accompanied by feeling or being sick and a sensitivity to bright lights and sound. Episodic Migraine is defined as having less than 15 days of headache a month with at least 6 days with migraine headaches. Migraines are caused by a series of events which cause the brain to get stimulated / activated, which results in the release of chemicals that cause pain. Dysport® is a formulation of Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A), a medication that stops the release of these chemical messengers. The study will consist of 3 periods: 1. A 'screening period' of 6 to 12 weeks to assess whether the participant can take part to the study and requires 1 visit. 2. A first Treatment Phase of 24 weeks. On Day 1 and at Week 12 of the first Treatment Phase, participants will receive injections into various muscles across the head, neck, face and shoulders. The injections will contain either a dose "A" or a dose ''B'' of Dysport® or a placebo (an inactive substance or treatment that looks the same as, and is given in the same way as, an active drug or intervention/treatment being studied). Participants will make 4 visits to the clinic in person and have 4 remote (online) visits. 3. A second Treatment Phase of 24 weeks (extension phase). At Week 24 and at Week 36, all participants will get Dysport® (dose "A" or dose "B"). There will be 3 in person visits and 4 remote visits. Participants will need to complete an e-diary and questionnaires throughout the study. Participants will undergo blood samplings, urine collections, physical examinations, and clinical evaluations. They may continue some other medications, but the details need to be recorded. The total study duration for a participant will be up to 60 weeks (approx. 14 months).
The purpose of this study is to understand the safety and effectiveness of the study drug, Dysport® when compared with placebo in preventing chronic migraine. A migraine is a headache with severe throbbing pain or a pulsating sensation, usually on one side of the head, and is often accompanied by feeling or being sick and a sensitivity to bright lights and sound. Chronic migraine is defined as having at least 15 days of headache a month with at least 8 of those days being migraine headache days. Migraines are caused by a series of events which cause the brain to get stimulated/activated, which results in the release of chemicals that cause pain. Dysport® is a formulation of Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A), a medication that stops the release of these chemical messengers. The study will consist of 3 periods: 1. A 'screening period' of 6 to 12 weeks to assess whether the participant can take part to the study and requires 1 visit. 2. A first Treatment Phase of 24 weeks.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a new drug that might help protect and preserve kidney function in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis (AAV). AAV is a type of autoimmune disease where the body's own immune system attacks itself, and in the case of AAV the body attacks its own small blood vessels. There are many small blood vessels in the kidneys meaning the kidneys are commonly affected in AAV. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the new drug well tolerated and safe? - Can the new drug protect and preserve kidney functions when is added to standard therapy? Researchers will compare the following groups to see how the new drug is tolerated and what effect to preserve kidney tissue has: - Group A: Standard treatment + ALE.F02 low dose infusions - Group B: Standard treatment + ALE.F02 high dose infusions - Group C: Standard treatment + ALE.F02 maximum dose infusions - Group D: Standard treatment + placebo infusions (inactive substance) The Treatment period will consist of 24 weeks beginning on Day 1, during which time participants will receive 13 infusions of the study medicine, along with standard therapy for kidney inflammation due to AAV. During the treatment period, participants will have the following assessments: - A brief physical examination focusing on their skin any pre-existing medical conditions that you have. - Collection of blood and urine samples for routine safety tests and to assess renal function. - Collection of blood samples: - To measure the amount of study medicine in their blood. This is called pharmacokinetics (PK) and it is tested to see how study medicine enters, moves through, and exits the body. - To test for antidrug antibodies (ADA). To check if their body create antibodies against the study medicine, as this could reduce its effect. - To measure biomarkers. Biomarkers are specific compounds in the body (can be protein, hormones, or genetic molecules) that indicate normal or abnormal processes taking place in your body and may be a sign of an underlying condition or disease (for example glucose levels are used as biomarker in managing diabetes). They are used to see how well the body responds to a treatment for a disease or condition. - Collection of urine to measure urine markers of vasculitis/inflammation called biomarkers. - Urine pregnancy test. A urine pregnancy test is a quick medical test that can tell if a woman is pregnant or not by checking for a hormone which is produced during pregnancy, usually in the urine. - Chest High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) scan to check whether they have vasculitis affecting their lungs. A CT scan uses special x-ray equipment to take detailed pictures of body tissues and organs to diagnose and monitor conditions in various parts of the body. For the CT scan, they will need to lie still on a table. At Week 24 a second lung CT scan will be performed for participants whose initial scan showed lung vasculitis to see whether your lung vasculitis is getting better or ongoing/worse.
Objective: The main aim of this cross-sectional clinical study is to evaluate the predictive ability of a panel of salivary biomarkers in determining periodontal health status. Material and methods: In this observational, cross-sectional study patients attending consecutively to the Periodontal Postgraduate Clinic at the University Complutense of Madrid. The participants will be categorized into different periodontal health status groups based on the 2018 classification of periodontal diseases, including periodontally healthy, gingivitis, treated periodontitis (stable/unstable), and various stages of periodontitis. During the screening visit, participants will undergo a comprehensive medical examination to gather relevant health information, including age, gender, weight, height, waist circumference, and drug, alcohol, and smoking history. Additionally, clinical assessments, saliva samples and microbiological parameters will be recorded. A convenience sample of 100 subjects will be recruited for this pilot study with the objective to generate data for the multivariate predictive analysis. Data analyses: Descriptive statistics will be used to report the clinical variables and patients will be grouped according to the pre-established diagnostic categories (periodontally healthy, gingivitis, treated periodontitis patient. In order to determine the possible statistical relationship with the medical, biochemical and microbiological variables assessed, a crude bivariate analysis will first be performed by applying a mean comparison test for quantitative variables (ANOVA) and a proportion comparison test for categorical variables (Chi-square). Subsequently, those variables identified as relevant in the crude analyses will be included as confounding and/or interaction factors in a binary logistic regression model, considering the presence of periodontitis as a response variable, in order to obtain crude and adjusted OR values, together with their corresponding 95% CIs. Based on the results obtained in the biomarker analysis, a relevant statistical analysis will be performed, taking into account all the variables collected in the study
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of glofitamab in combination with polatuzumab vedotin plus rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (Pola-R-CHP) vs Pola-R-CHP in participants with previously untreated CD20-positive large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL).
The ERYTHRO study is a retrospective medical chart review study of patients in the AMANA and ATUc Early Access Programs (EAPs) across a number of countries, to assess anifrolumab usage and patient experience in treating SLE in a real-world setting. Since patient safety data are already collected and reported according to regulatory requirements through EAPs, this study will not collect safety data.
