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.
Palliative Sedation (PS) is defined as the intentional lowering of consciousness of a patient in the last phase of life, to relieve patients suffering from refractory symptoms. For those symptoms all possible effective treatments, within an acceptable timeframe, are exhausted. Several studies have been performed about palliative sedation, mostly focusing on continuous deep sedation, with the use of various measurements to monitor its effect. Efficacy of continuous palliative sedation has been monitored by agitation/distress levels, symptom control, levels of sedation/awareness, comfort, safety and family/caregivers satisfaction. Differences between studies occur, for instance in definition, application and monitoring. Consequently reported outcomes and associated treatment goals differ between studies which makes it difficult to compare the results. Within this international multicenter observational study, the investigators aim to evaluate the effects of palliative sedation on patient's comfort levels. Participants with different forms and intensity of palliative sedation (intermittent and continuous, from light to deep) are included in a prospective design as part of an international study. Objectives: 1. To evaluate the effect of palliative sedation on participants' comfort and other symptoms in different international hospices, palliative care units and hospital ward settings. 2. To assess the clinical practice of palliative sedation in different international care settings and the accompanying costs and consequences. Study design: Prospective observational multicentre study in hospices, palliative care units and hospital ward settings in five European countries (Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain, The Netherlands).
Different ovarian stimulation regimens have shown to modify late follicular phase hormonal profiles. Besides, recent studies confirm that progesterone levels and their variation in the last day of oocyte maturation are affected by the dose of gonadotropins administered and by other factors. Progesterone elevation in late follicular phase of in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmatic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycles under ovarian stimulation compromises implantation rates due to a negative effect on the endometrium. However, there is still conflict in the literature questioning whether progesterone levels alone on the triggering day is a sufficient indicator as progesterone does not give the full picture of the ovarian functions, number of follicles as well as estrogen production that facilitate endometrial growth, thus some studies suggest that especially in aged and poor responders Progesterone/Estrogen (P4/E2) ratio has a better reflection (Progesterone (ng/mL) ×1,000/estradiol(pg/mL)) on the ovarian function. The scope of the current pilot study is to compare serum progesterone levels as well as P4/E2 ratio on the day of ovulation triggering of women belonging to POSEIDON category group 2 who undergo a new ovarian stimulation with a dose of rhFSH 300 IU or 300 IU rhFSH plus 150 IU recombinant human luteinizing hormone (rhLH) in a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist protocol.
Part 1: Dose Escalation. The primary objective of Part 1 of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of KB-0742 in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) solid tumors or non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Part 2: Cohort Expansion. The primary objective of Part 2 of this study is to further evaluate the safety and tolerability of KB-0742 in defined participant cohorts.
This study will assess whether switching participants who have benefitted from mepolizumab or benralizumab to GSK3511294 (Depemokimab) is non-inferior to maintaining current treatment on the annualized rate of clinically significant exacerbations in participants with severe asthma with an eosinophilic phenotype. Throughout the study, all participants will continue their non-biologic Baseline standard of care (SoC) asthma treatment.
The purpose of this Phase 3 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Luspatercept compared with placebo in subjects with myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN)-associated Myelofibrosis (MF) and anemia on concomitant Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) inhibitor therapy and who require red blood cell count (RBC) transfusions. The study is divided into Screening Period, a Treatment Phase (consisting of a Blinded Core Treatment Period, a Day 169 Response Assessment, a Blinded Extension Treatment Period, and an Open-label Extension Treatment Period), and a Posttreatment Follow-up Period. Following the Day 169 Response Assessment, subjects who did not show clinical benefit will have the option to unblind. Subjects who were on placebo during the Blinded Core Treatment Period will have the opportunity to crossover into the Open-Label Extension Treatment Period and receive Luspatercept.
A descriptive, clinical series, single-centre, national, biomedical study to determine the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in sperm samples from positive PCR patients for COVID-19 and to evaluate the presence of the virus in the sperm samples after a negative PCR for COVID-19
The investigators aimed to elucidate the effects of ultrasound debridement on the area and healing of diabetic foot ulcers compared to their conventional treatment.
INTRODUCTION Bladder tumor is the second most common neoplasm in the genitourinary tract. Most cases of ex novo diagnosis of bladder cancers are present as non-invasive muscle tumors, which are treatable through endourological procedures. The current standard is based on conventional transurethral resection of bladder tumor, although high rates of recurrence have been reported following resection of the primary tumor. Given the importance of a correct initial diagnosis in these cases, en bloc transurethral resection has developed over the past 2 decades. This technique was born, according to the literature, with 3 main objectives: to improve the quality of the surgical piece for its anatomopathological reading, reduce the rate of postoperative complications and reduce the rate of relapses in the surgical bed. This technique is used as a common practice of tumor resection in other centers and has been shown in multiple publications that it does not increase surgical risk or negatively affect cancer results. OBJECTIVE The objective of our study is to compare feasibility, perioperative complication rate, accuracy of staging and recurrence/progression rates when performing en bloc resection by means of different energies: monopolar, bipolar and laser energy. MATERIAL AND METHODS Between April 2018 and June 2021, a prospective randomized study will be conducted including patients undergoing a transurethral resection of initial or recurrent bladder tumor, either unifocal or multifocal. Patients with tumors less than 3 cm and with less than 3 tumors shall be included if multiple. Patients with more than 3 tumors or tumors over 3cm, those with evidence of invasive muscle tumor(cT2) or those with evidence of remote metastasis, whether lymphatic or organic, will be excluded. Patients will be randomized into two groups: - Group 1 (test): en bloc resection (n-180). It will be divided into 3 subgroups according to the energy used (monopolar, bipolar, laser energy). - Group 2 (control): Conventional transurethral resection (n-120). It will be divided into 2 subgroups depending on the energy used (monopolar or bipolar). A fact sheet will be given to the patient about the study and the signature of the informed consent will be requested in order to be included. The patient will be free to leave the study at any time without having to provide any justification and without affecting the treatment, intervention and follow-up that must be carried out. The processing and storage of samples will be carried out in the pathological anatomy laboratory, according to standard clinical practice. Patients will be monitored according to the usual clinical practice protocol (minimum 5-year follow-up), included in the non-muscle invasive bladder tumor protocols of the Puigvert Foundation.
