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.
Phase I/II multicenter and prospective trial of nilotinib and adriamycin as neoadjuvant treatment in liposarcomas and leiomyosarcomas of retroperitoneum. The main objective of this study is to improve relapse-free survival (RFS)and overall survival (OS) decreasing from 50% to 30% the relapse percentage at 5 years in patients with resected sarcoma of retroperitoneum. Secondary objectives include the analysis of antitumoral activity through response rate (RECIST and tissular changes), the assessment of positive correlation between biomarkers and clinical results, the study of long term overall survival, and the analysis of the safety profile of the nilotinib-adriamycin combination. The trial hypothesis is that the nilotinib-adriamycin combination is synergistic and therefore better response results are expected (from 20% as P0 to 40% as P1). The study seeks to find a positive correlation between biomarkers and clinical results in retroperitoneal liposarcoma and leiomyosarcoma treated with the mentioned combination. The study involves the participation of 20 hospitals of the Spanish Sarcoma Group (GEIS). The treatment consists of 4 neoadjuvant cycles of nilotinib-adriamycin on patients with resectable retroperitoneal sarcoma. The research comprises a robust translational study as well as histological and radiological reviews.
Individuals who had experience a stroke usually suffer from spasticity at medium and long-terms. The presence of spasticity in the lower extremity implies several impairments for standing and walking inducing high disability. A recent study has proposed the use of dry needling for improving spasticity in the lower extremity. No study has investigated the effects of deep dry needling inserted into spastic musculature in stabilometry and moto function in patients who had experience a stroke. A randomized controlled trial investigating the effects of the inclusion of deep dry needling into a Bobath interventional program on spasticity, motor function and balance (stabilometry) in individuals who had experience a stroke
Knowing the impact that the use of ESL as adjunctive treatment of partial epilepsy has on cardiovascular risk factors measured by biochemical and ultrasound parameters compared with enzyme-inducing AEDs.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of use of autologous bone marrow stem cells seeded on porous tricalcium phosphate matrix and demineralized bone matrix in patients with osteonecrosis of the jaw by a prospective, single-center, open, nonrandomized and unblinded clinical trial.
A multicenter, multinational, prospective study to clarify, whether the addition of cryobiopsy can avoid surgical lung biopsy in a clinically relevant proportion of patients with suspected Idiopathic Interstitial Pneumonia
The objective of the study is to assess the effect of low-calorie diets with normal (18%) vs. high (35%) protein (mainly coming from animal source) composition on body weight and carbohydrates metabolism in overweight and obese subjects with pre-diabetes or diabetes. A dietary intervention is carried out during 6 months in 100 subjects who are individually randomized to an energy-restricted diet with two types of macronutrients composition: 1) 35% protein, 30% fat and 35% carbohydrates and 2) 18% protein, 30% fat and 52% carbohydrates. Around 80% of total protein in diet comes from animal source (of whom around 40% from lean red meat). Subjects are provided with weekly menus and different recipes to use them as part of the diet. Monitoring visits with the nutritionist will be performed every 15 days. At the beginning of the study, after 3 and 6 months, the following parameters are determined: anthropometric (weight, waist circumference, body mass index and body composition), blood pressure, dietary (72-hours dietary registry) and exercise and biochemical analysis (total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, apolipoproteins A1 and B, iron, transferring, ferritin, uric acid, glucose, HbA1c, insulin, adiponectin and resistin). Urine samples are also collected to assess microalbuminuria and ureic nitrogen.
This is a Long-term Access Programme (LAP) which aims to support provision of mepolizumab, until it is commercially available, to eligible subjects with severe asthma who participated in a GSK-sponsored mepolizumab clinical study 200862 and 200363. Eligible subjects will initiate mepolizumab within a 6-month period following the individual subject's last scheduled visit in their preceding clinical study. For each subject benefit versus risk will be assessed throughout the study to support continued treatment with mepolizumab.
Dyspnea is a symptom that is growing in incidence, as respiratory and heart diseases are becoming more frequent. Patients suffering from dyspnea have a significant disabling due to chronic refractory dyspnea and crisis of irruptive dyspnea. Although there are several tools that may produce an improvement of symptom intensity, they are underused.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of a physical activity program for children with Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia.
A measurable degree of heart muscle tissue injury is expected in patients undergoing heart valvular surgery. The level of this injury can be measured by cardiac biomarkers in blood samples. Those biomarkers are used to diagnose an acute myocardial infarction. Postoperative myocardial infarction (MI) is a frequent and important complication after cardiac surgery with high morbidity and mortality. Therefore it is very important to recognize any cardiac event in patients who undergo cardiac surgery. Different diagnostic tools can be used to the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction; however few is known about the value of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTn) to diagnose a MI after heart valvular surgery. The aim of this study is to determine the upper reference limit of high-sensitivity troponin T concentration to consider the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction in patients undergoing heart valvular surgery.
