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.
Some data exist about the efficacy and safety of rotational atherectomy, intravascular lithotripsy and excimer laser to modify calcified plaques. However there is no direct randomized comparison between these three tools in this scenario. The aim of this pilot randomized trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of these three techniques during PCI of moderate to severe calcified lesions.
To ensure a successful percutaneous left atrial appendage (LAA) closure, it is important to select the correct size of the closure device used for each patient. To define and measure the size of the LAA, 2D transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has been typically used. An increasing number of hospitals recently switched to measure the size of the LAA using a cardiac computed tomography (CT) scan. Although this CT scan helps to better define and measure the LAA, it is still difficult to determine the exact anticipated 'landing zone' or 'position' of the closure device. A novel strategy of preprocedural planning includes the use of preoperative computer simulations based on CT imaging (Feops HEARTguideTM), where the device is deployed with a computer simulation into the patient-specific LAA anatomy to provide the operator both optimal and suboptimal scenario's showing different sizes and positions of the closure device. The aim of this study is to assess whether use of FEops HEARTguide computer simulations based on cardiac CT-imaging can contribute to a better preprocedural planning and improved procedural outcomes of percutaneous LAA closure procedures with an Amplatzer Amulet device. The PREDICT-LAA trial will investigate the possible positive effect of a computer simulation using a CT scan of the LAA performed prior to the procedure. The hypothesis is that by using this new computer simulation, better planning of the intervention can be obtained.
This clinical trial is evaluating a drug called BT5528 alone and in combination with nivolumab in participants with advanced solid tumors historically known for expression of EphA2. The main goals of this study are to: - Find the recommended dose(s) of BT5528 that can be given safely to participants alone and in combination with nivolumab - Learn more about the side effects of BT5528 - Learn about how effective BT5528 is for the treatment of ovarian cancer, urothelial/bladder cancer, lung cancer (NSCLC), triple-negative breast cancer, head and neck cancer (HNSCC), and gastric/upper gastrointestinal cancer. - Learn more about BT5528 therapy alone and in combination with nivolumab.
European Alpha-1 Research Collaboration (EARCO) is a pan-European network committed to promoting clinical research and education in alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD). The core project is the pan-European AATD Registry, a collaboration which will offer longitudinal real-world data for patients with AATD. EARCO has a global vision to increase the early diagnosis of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), understand better the natural history of the disease and ensure optimal access to effective care, placing emphasis on ambitions that serve collective needs of the AATD research community and bringing people with AAT deficiency to the centre of the research environment in a real-world context. The study population will consist of individuals with diagnosed severe alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency regardless of the clinical expression and severity. The study objectives are: - To generate long-term, high-quality clinical data covering a pan-European population of AATD individuals in all age groups and all stages of disease severity. - To understand the natural history and prognosis of AATD better with the goal to create and validate prognostic tools to support medical decision making. - To investigate the effect of augmentation therapy on the progression of emphysema and to examine its impact on clinical and functional outcomes, such as FEV1, quality of life and mortality in a "real-life" population - To learn more about the course of the disease in patients suffering from severe AATD with genotypes different from Pi*ZZ We expect to collect detailed information from around 1,000 patients from at least 10 countries during the first year, expanding to 3,000 from more than 25 countries over the 5 years of the CRC and continue a long term follow-up.

This is a First in Human (FIH) Phase I/II, multinational, multicenter, open-label study of HB-201 single vector therapy and HB-201 & HB-202 two-vector therapy in patients with HPV 16+ confirmed cancers comprising two parts: Phase I Dose Escalation and Phase II Dose Expansion.
After consolidation therapy adult patients (≥18 yr) with Ph-negative ALL will be treated with continuation chemotherapy or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) according to both measurable residual disease (MRD) and results of genetic study performed at baseline.
Low cardiac output Syndrome (LCOS) is a complication that appears in approximately 20% of cardiac surgeries with extracorporeal circulation. LCOS is associated with increased mortality, delayed recovery and prolonged hospital stay. The Spanish Randomized Clinical Trial on Levosimendan (brand name: Sindax) (SPARTANS) aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of the preoperative use of Levosimendan in reducing LCOS in patients with poor left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) undergoing elective cardiac surgery. SPARTANS study is a multicenter, randomized triple-blind, placebo-controlled trial. 300 patients with LVEF ≤ 35%, undergoing elective cardiac surgery will be recruited from 9 Spanish hospitals and randomized into two groups: Preoperative administration of levosimendan or placebo for 24 hours. The study drug will be started as a continuous infusion (0.1 µg/kg/min) at least 8 hours before surgery to complete 24h duration. The primary endpoint will be 30-day LCOS. It will be evaluated using any of the following criteria: 1) postoperated cardiac index ≤2.0 L / min / m2, 2) a need to implant a intra-aortic balloon pump/ left ventricular assist device, 3) a vasoactive inotropic scale (VIS) > 5.5. The secondary end-point will be composite event rate at one year including any of the following events: death from any cause, need for renal replacement therapy or dialysis and LCOS. The sample size is based on the assumption that levosimendan reduces LCOS by 50% being necessary a sample size of 300 patients to carry out the study. The Research Team of each hospital, will carry out the clinical follow-up by telephone or clinical interview of the patient according to the time intervals: 30 days and 1 year. We estimate that the total sample size of 300 patients will be reached in 2-2.5 years. In conclusion, the effectiveness of levosimendan has not yet been reported with a good evidence in cardiac surgery. The purpose of the "Spanish Randomized Clinical Trial on Sindax" (SPARTANS) trial is to evaluate the beneficial effect of preoperative use of levosimendan compared with placebo to reduce perioperative LCOS in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with poor LVEF ≤ 35%.

This is a prospective mixed-design study focused on the long-term management of propionic aciduria (PA) and methylmalonic aciduria (MMA) with N-carbamylglutamate (NCG) maintenance therapy. Treatment characteristics, clinical outcomes, and healthcare utilization data of patients diagnosed PA or MMA treated >6 months therapy with NCG are collected at baseline, 12 months, 18 months, 36 months and 54 months. Qualitative interviews with adult patients and caregivers are conducted >6 months after study enrollment to gain a better understanding of the disease burden and the treatment burden of patients and their families.
