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.
A prospective study of the results of laparoscopic approach of gastric carcinoma in western patients is designed. The working hypothesis proposes obtaining similar results to those obtained in the series reported by eastern hospitals (Japan and Korea) and, at least, equivalent to those recorded in conventional surgery.
The aim of this study is to determinate if therapeutic exercise with blood flow restriction (BFR) during neoadjuvant chemotherapy potentialy neurotoxic could prevent the onset of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) comparing to usual care.
This is a randomized controlled trial designed to compare robot-assisted thoracic approach with open transthoracic esophagectomy (Ivor Lewis technique) as a surgical treatment for resectable esophageal cancer. If our hypothesis is proved correct, robot-assisted thoracic approach will result in a lower percentage of respiratory and overall postoperative complications, lower blood loss, shorter hospital stay, but with at least similar oncologic outcomes and better postoperative quality of life compared with the open transthoracic esophagectomy (current standard).
Randomly assign patients with fractures of the proximal humerus to conservative treatment to a group in which a control radiological study will be carried out after a week of evolution of the fracture and to another group in which this control radiology will not be carried out. In the evolutionary controls, it will be determined whether there are differences between the two groups in the final functional result, in the perception of quality of life, and in the number of complications derived from the fracture.
The present study is an open-label, randomized, controlled, two-arm multi-center study of the efficacy of L19TNF treatment in combination with doxorubicin versus doxorubicin alone in advanced or metastatic soft-tissue sarcoma patients. In the study, 102 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive doxorubicin treatment (Arm 1) or L19TNF treatment in combination with doxorubicin (Arm 2). The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate if L19TNF in combination with doxorubicin (Arm 2) given for unresectable or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma improves efficacy measured as progression free survival, as compared to doxorubicin alone (Arm 1).
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of BHV-3000 versus placebo in the acute treatment of moderate or severe migraine in children and adolescents.
This study is designed to quantify the ventricular stasis in patients with different forms of cardiomyopathy and at risk of stroke (ischemic, non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) by post-processing of 2D color Doppler echocardiography and phase contrast-magnetic resonance images in order to establish the relationship between quantitative variables of intraventricular stasis and the prevalence of silent embolic events and/or intraventricular mural thrombosis.
Hypertension is a significant cardiovascular risk factor which affects 45% of the adult population. Salt intake is essential in the development and progression of hypertension. A reduction in salt intake is associated with a reduction in blood pressure and a 25% lower risk of suffering a cardiovascular event. The mechanisms involved in the association between salt intake and blood pressure are a topic of discussion. Increased salt intake can modify cardiovascular function, inducing endothelial dysfunction, modyfing the activity of the immune system and increasing inflammation or oxidative stress. In recent years, dietary salt intake has been linked to intestinal depletion of certain genera of bacteria such as Lactobacillus. Tryptophan metabolites formed by these bacteria have been shown to modulate the activity of pro-inflammatory cells such as Th17/CD4+, interleukin 17a producing cells. Studies in animal models have demonstrated that interleukin 17a is able to raise blood pressure by hindering endothelium-dependent vasodilation mechanisms. It is also able to cause sodium and water retention, increase albuminuria, induce renal microvascular injury and vasoconstriction and promote vascular stiffening, cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. The main objective of this trial is to describe the relationship between salt intake, gut commensal microbiota, Th17 activity, endothelial dysfunction and blood pressure evolution in a sample of patients with essential hypertension.
The objective of the study is to evaluate de results of the arthroscopic diagnose and arthroscopic treatment of the dorsal wrist pain syndrome associated with dorsal synovial hypertrophy. It is a prospective study of 25 consecutive patients with the diagnosis of dorsal wrist radiographies and MRI) have discarded other concomitant pathologies. After being refractory to the conservative measures consisting in physiotherapy for at least 3 months, a wrist arthroscopy will be performed with diagnostic and treatment objectives. All these procedures will be performed by the same surgical team. Only will be included those patients whose diagnostic arthroscopy show absence of other concomitant lesions as scapho-lunate or luno-triquetral tears, triangular fibrocartilage injuries, chondral injuries, fractures, arthritis or other injuries that will be considered as exclusion criteria. In those cases where a hypertrophy of the dorsal synovial is confirmed, an arthroscopic synovectomy and radiofrequency thermocoagulation of the hypertrophic synovial will be performed. The standard radiocarpal portals for wrist arthroscopy will be performed: 3-4 portal and 6-R portal. The pain syndrome described as dorsal localized wrist pain, especially reproductible in hyperextension and axial load of the wrist and in whom the complementary tests (plain The following data will be reviewed and analyzed: age, sex, right/left wrist, right/left-handed, anamnesis, physical exam, MRI findings, arthroscopic diagnosis and functional outcome through Mayo score as a main viable and also, VAS(visual analogue scale for pain), DASH score, grip strength measured with jamar dynamometer and articular balance. All these parameters will be registered pre-surgery and post-surgery at 6 weeks, 3 months and 12 months of the follow-up and at the end of follow-up. The minimum follow-up will be at least of 12 months.
In the SHIELD study, the study sponsor seeks to assess safety, PK and antiviral activity for children and adolescents with dual or triple class resistance. It will also assess the acceptability and swallowability of formulation among the pediatric population. The dose selection of FTR for children and adolescents ≥20kg utilized a population pharmacokinetic (POP PK) model-based approach to achieve similar adult TMR exposures following FTR 600mg BID administration with combination therapy that was demonstrated to be safe and effective in the FTR Phase 3 BRIGHTE study in HTE patients.
