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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of the anti-programmed death 1 (PD-1) agent nivolumab following selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). SIRT using yttrium90-loaded microspheres is increasingly used to treat patients with HCC, particularly those that are not good candidates for transarterial chemoembolization or TACE. SIRT induces disease control (objective tumor remission or stabilization) in most patients while progression usually results from the growth of new lesions. SIR-Spheres are resin-made microspheres used for SIRT. On the other hand, nivolumab is under clinical development for the treatment of more advanced HCC. Available data in patients that mostly had progression to other therapies and vascular involvement or metastatic disease show significant systemic antitumor activity that results in durable objective remissions and disease stabilizations. Therefore, in patients with HCC that has not spread beyond the liver, the systemic action of nivolumab may improve the anti-tumor effect of SIRT. Furthermore, by inducing immunogenic tumor cell death, SIRT may have a synergistic effect with nivolumab.
The purpose of this study was to gather and evaluate additional safety and efficacy data on the combination of midostaurin and standard of care for adult patients with newly diagnosed Fms-like tyrosine kinase receptor (FLT3) mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) who were eligible for standard induction and consolidation
The purpose of this study is to explore the antiviral effect of JNJ-53718678 at 2 dose levels (80 milligrams [mg] and 500 mg) once daily for 7 days in adults with Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) infection, as measured by RSV viral load in nasal secretions by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assay.
The principal aim was to evaluate whether gastric bypass surgery modifies the bioavailability of omeprazole 20 mg at one month and six months after surgery. Other objectives were: - To compare bioavailability of omeprazole 20 mg between patients undergo gastric bypass surgery and patients who avoid it. - To asses other pharmacokinetic parameters, demographic parameters and drug safety. Study design It was planned a mixed design which intended to compare the bioavailability in patients with gastric bypass (before and after surgery) and control subjects matched by sex and body mass index (BMI) post-surgery. This was a single-dose, open-label, crossover bioavailability study of omeprazole in surgical group and controls.
Hypothesis: Patients with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) have a high risk to develop complications during pregnancy, puerperium and in the newborn. At present there are not scientific evidences about the optimal distribution of meals in the medical nutrition therapy (MNT) and their relationship with glycemic control. Aim: To explore and compare ketonemia and glycemic profile in patients with GDM that follow a MNT distributed in 6 or 3 meals. Besides, we want to explore the differences between both treatments in glucose dynamics. Methods: The study design is a randomized, crossover and multicentric trial. A sample of 10 patients with GDM will be recruited in the Department of Endocrinology and Nutrition from both centres. In a randomized manner patients will follow the conventional treatment (a carbohydrate-controlled diet distributed in 6 meals: 3 main meals and 3 snacks) and the intervention treatment (a carbohydrate-controlled diet distributed in 3 meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner). They will be randomized to begin with one of the two treatments, and after two weeks they will be switched to the other treatment. Patients will wear a blinded continuous glucose monitoring device (iPro2-TM, Medtronic) during the entire study period. Inclusion criteria: - Women with GDM diagnosed in 24-28 weeks. - Age 18-40 years. - Pregnancy age of 28-32 weeks. - Caucasian. - Body mass index ≤ 35 Kg/m2. Exclusion criteria: - Unability to understand the dietary recommendations and/or to perform self-management of glycemia, ketonuria or ketonemia. - A low adherence to MNT. - Problems with written and/or oral communication. - Presence of comorbidities other than obesity, hypertension and dyslipidemia. - Insulin-need criteria within 3 first days of the beginning of the study (fasting glucose ≥90mg/dL, postprandial glucose 1-hour ≥140mg/dL). Clinical and sociodemographic variables will be assessed. Dietary records and blood samples will be collected. Daily basal ketonuria and ketonemia before each meal will be assessed. Glycemic profile will be collected with a blind-sensor during the four weeks of the intervention study. Generalized linear model analysis will be performed. Statistical power will be 80% and significance level will be set at 0.05. Written informed consent will be collected from all participants.
Trial to determine the absolute and relative efficacy of two follicular preparation regimens with transdermal testosterone during the cycle (s) prior to the initiation of COS (controlled ovarian stimulation) in patients diagnosed with POR (poor ovarian response) for the increase in the number of mature oocytes recovered.
The purpose of this study is to explore the association between the psychosocial variables: pain catastrophizing, fear of movement, coping skills, pain attitudes, anxiety and depression with postoperative outcomes (pain, health functioning, physical performance, and quality of life) after a knee arthroplasty (KA). The prevalence of KA has increased dramatically during the last two decades, its popularity can be attributed to its evident success regarding pain improvement, deformity correction and disability reduction in knee osteoarthritis subjects. However, only a third of the patients report no functional problems after surgery, the 20% of them are unsatisfied with its functional skills and around a 20% are experiencing pain, high disability degrees and a significant quality of life reduction. This results cannot be fully explained by mechanical processes, surgical procedures or surgery variations, but seems to be related to other psychological aspects. Chronic pain subjects often develop maladaptive thoughts and behaviours (i.e. pain catastrophism, kinesiophobia, activity avoidance) which contribute to make the subject suffer physically as well as emotionally, and affect on the intensity and persistency of pain. This study is a single centre, prospective observational study of subjects undergoing primary KA. The study is designed and aimed to examine the relationship between postoperative psychosocial factors and the development of post-operative persistent pain and disability.
The purpose of this study is analyze if spirometry is a motivational element for changes in the cessation phases of the tobacco habit, compared with not done spirometry.
The investigators are doing this study to see the effect of insulin degludec in pregnant women with type 1 diabetes, and if it is safe to use. In this study the medicine insulin degludec is compared to another medicine called insulin detemir. Participants will either get insulin degludec or insulin detemir and take it together with a medicine called insulin aspart - which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants will get pre-filled insulin pens. Participants will need to take blood sugar measurements several times a day. The study will last between 10 and 25 months depending on whether participants are already pregnant when they join the study. The number of visits and the tests ( for example blood and urine samples and ultrasound scans) the participants will have also depends on whether they are pregnant at study start.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of JNJ-63733657 following single ascending intravenous (IV) dose administration in healthy subjects (Part 1) and multiple ascending IV dose administrations in subjects with prodromal or mild Alzheimer's disease (AD) (Part 2).
