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 randomized controlled trial is aimed at studying the effects of an eHealth intervention on improving metabolic control and other cardiovascular risk factors (obesity, lipidic profile and hypertension) as the approach to prevent or delay the process of cognitive impairment, and to reduce conversion rates to Alzheimer's disease (AD) in a sample of patients diagnosed of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). For these purposes, the standard clinical treatment for this type of patients will be compared with two types of interventions (parallel groups): one aimed at promoting adherence to treatment through the use of a smart pillbox; and the other intervention will be based on the use of the smart pillbox plus and interactive digital platform allowing communication between patients and caregivers with healthcare professionals. Both interventions are targeted to improve adherence to treatment. The hypothesis is that the rate of conversion from MCI to AD will be higher in the control group than in the intervention groups (higher conversion rates are expected in control group, followed by the smart pillbox group, and lower conversion rates are expected in the group using the interactive digital platform and the smart pillbox).
This is a Phase 2b randomized, blinded, placebo controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, PK/pharmacodynamic, and immunogenicity of repeat doses of MEDI6012 in adult participants presenting with acute STEMI (ST segment elevation myocardial infarction). The study will enrol participants presenting with acute STEMI who are planned for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). For all participants, an end of study CMR will be performed at 10-12 weeks (70-84 days following Dose 1). A subset of participants will also undergo an index and an end of study CTA.
This study evaluate the effectiveness of the Virtual Reality Educational Program (RVEP) in the Paediatric Surgical Prehabilitation Unit to reduce the perioperative anxiety in children who undergo to elective surgery. Half of the patients will received the virtual reality program, and the other half will received de common treatment.
Achieving near-normoglycemia has been established as the main objective for most patients with diabetes. Despite growing evidence about the health benefits of regular exercise in diabetes, exercise-associated glycemic imbalance remains a challenge in subjects with type 1 diabetes (T1D) due to a higher risk of hypoglycemia. Automatic glucose control, the so-called artificial pancreas (AP) or closed-loop system, may represent the ideal solution for reaching the therapeutic goals in diabetic patients. Intuitively, closed-loop insulin delivery may be superior to open-loop insulin delivery due to a better compensation of the variability of subcutaneous insulin absorption and the intra-subject insulin sensitivity. However, several challenges exist to effectively realize an optimal closed-loop control of blood glucose during exercise. Indeed, the physical exercise induces one of the major glucose perturbations that need to be controlled by an artificial pancreas and is currently one of the main challenges found in clinical validations of the few existing prototypes of an artificial pancreas. In particular, experiments carried out with the currently used algorithms for glucose control (the so called PID (proportional-integrative-derivative) and MPC) showed that closed-loop insulin delivery is deteriorated by exercise, increasing the risk of hypoglycemia even with pre-exercise carbohydrate ingestion when non-announcement strategies are used. In this project, a rigorous clinical testing of a novel closed-loop controller ('artificial pancreas') will be carried out in T1D patients treated with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). The innovative element of the controller is a safety auxiliary feedback based on sliding mode reference conditioning (SMRC), which has been demonstrated to limit over-insulinization and the resulting hypoglycemia, reducing glycaemic variability. Announced and unannounced exercise will be performed in T1D subjects treated with CSII, comparing the number of hypoglycemic episodes with a controller-driven insulin delivery (closed-loop study) based on continuous subcutaneous glucose monitoring (CGM). If any glucose value <70 mg/dL 15 gr of glucose will be provided. Moreover 15gr of glucose will be provided in AP studies when AP system recommends it. The hypothesis is that closed loop control will provide better glycemic control, with less hypoglycemia episodes.
To determine the efficacy on decreasing the rate of surgical wound complications in patients undergoing repair of large incisional hernias, after the prophylactic application of a single-use negative pressure therapy dressing (PICO), versus a conventional dressing.
Phase IIa study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SOM3355 in chorea movements associated with Huntington's disease
The study will be conducted in compliance with the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use/Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and applicable regulatory requirements. This is a randomized, open-label, parallel-group, multi-center trial in adult subjects with Relapsed or refractory (R/R) aggressive Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) to compare safety and efficacy between the standard of care (SOC) strategy versus JCAR017 (also known as lisocabtagene maraleucel or liso-cel). Subjects will be randomized to either receive SOC (Arm A) or to receive JCAR017 (Arm B). All subjects randomized to Arm A will receive Standard of care (SOC) salvage therapy (R-DHAP, RICE or R-GDP) as per physician's choice before proceeding to High dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Subjects from Arm A may be allowed to cross over and receive JCAR017 upon confirmation of an EFS event. Subjects randomized to Arm B will receive Lymphodepleting (LD) chemotherapy followed by JCAR017 infusion.
The researchers are doing the study to see if semaglutide may reduce the risk of having cardiovascular events in patients with overweight or obesity and with prior cardiovascular disease. The participant will either get semaglutide (active medicine) or placebo ("dummy" medicine). Which treatment the participants get is decided by chance. The participant's chance of getting semaglutide or placebo is the same. The participant will get the study medicine in a pen. The participants will need to use the pen to inject the study medicine in a skinfold once a week. The study will last for about 2.5 to 5 years. Participants will have up to 25 clinic visits with the study doctor.
The purpose of this study is to describe the clinical and economic burden in adults and infants/children less than or equal to 5 years of age by type of respiratory pathogen (respiratory syncytial virus [RSV], influenza A, and human metapneumovirus [hMPV] in adults; RSV and hMPV in infants/children) based on medical resource utilization; rate and type of complications during and after hospitalization; mortality; rate and reasons of re-hospitalization related to index hospitalization; post-discharge care information and International Classification of Diseases 9th/10th revision (ICD-9/10)/Diagnostic-related Group (DRG) codes used (distribution).
This is a randomized controlled clinical trial performed in urban primary care centers in Salamanca (Spain). Its objective is to evaluate the effect of an intervention based on the use of new information and communication technologies in a population of people over 65 years of age in the improvement of lifestyles, body composition, quality of life, cognitive performance and daily life activities.
