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 goal of this study is to show the superiority in survival at hospital admittance and in neurological outcome on hospital discharge of continuous mechanical chest compression using LUCAS device versus manual chest compressions in patients who suffered an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
This open-label, multicenter. single arm Phase I dose-escalation study with efficacy tail extension will evaluate the maximum tolerated dose/recommended dose, the safety and efficacy of vemurafenib (RO5185426) in pediatric patients (aged 12 through 17) with newly diagnosed or recurrent surgically incurable and unresectable Stage IIIC or Stage IV melanoma harboring BRAFV600 mutations. Patients will receive vemurafenib orally twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.
This retrospective observational study is designed to assess the response to treatment with fulvestrant at a dose of 500 mg/month with a loading dose of 500 mg (LD-500), in terms of progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and clinical benefit rate (CBR), in post-menopausal women with Advanced Breast Cancer and estrogen receptor positive, who were treated with this medicinal product and at said dose after having progressed with a previous anti-estrogen therapy. During this study, a retrospective data collection will be carried out using the information contained in the Clinical History of said patients, provided that the treatment with fulvestrant at a dose of 500 mg and LD-500.
20-25% of patients over 15 years with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have the Philadelphia chromosome or BCR-ABL rearrangement. Traditionally, intensive chemotherapy followed by hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) have formed the basis allogeneic treatment of this disease, but the results have been poor (60-75% complete remissions-RC-and probability of long-term survival less than 20%). The effectiveness of imatinib for hematologic responses in patients with Ph + (observed in phase I and II) led to its use in phase III trials in combination with chemotherapy. They saw a chance of obtaining the RC above 90%, with acceptable toxicity, a molecular response rate (MR) of 40-50%, and prolonged follow-up studies, a probability of disease-free survival (DFS ) of 30-50%, significantly higher than historical controls with the same chemotherapy without imatinib. This led to the approval of imatinib by the rating agencies in the U.S., Europe and Japan as a treatment for Ph + in combination with chemotherapy. Of the studies that led to the approval of this indication for imatinib, and other incurred after, the following conclusions can be drawn: There is no specific pattern of combination of imatinib (at doses of 600 mg / day, po) and chemotherapy. However, when compared with concomitant alternating with the first achieved a higher rate of RM at the end of induction, although this did not influence DFS. In studies in elderly patients has achieved a high CR rate (almost 100% in all series), only imatinib and glucocorticoids, suggesting that an attenuated induction may be sufficient to achieve CR in young patients with minimal toxicity, which further compromises the administration of treatment and allow for an allogeneic HSCT with minimal toxic load possible. Although there is no consensus on the indication of allogeneic HSCT in first CR when given imatinib associated with intensive chemotherapy is an option that is done in most studies. The allogeneic HSCT is most effective when carried out in complete molecular response to or greater than when there is more residual disease. However, the impact of MRI to obtain early (after induction) on survival is not clear. So far-reaching goal is to make the TPH in complete molecular response situation or greater. The relapse of the disease at the molecular level is still short-term (less than 3 months) of hematological relapse. This implies the need for frequent monitoring of residual disease (ER) The frequency of relapse post HSCT is high (around 30%), raising the need for any post HSCT treatment, including imatinib included. Are currently ongoing clinical trials comparing the systematic administration of imatinib after administration TPH face is detected only when ER. The applicability of the administration of imatinib after HSCT is limited by toxicity related to the procedure of TPH, is making frequent dose reduction or discontinuation. Therefore, a reasonable approximation treatment of Ph + outside the context of a clinical trial is to get as many molecular responses before allogeneic HSCT in a position to make the same MRI complete or greater. After TPH, must be very close monitoring of the ER, and imatinib is administered as soon as you notice the loss of molecular response. In patients who can not make an allogeneic HSCT for lack of histocompatible donor or contraindications for its realization it is recommended imatinib and chemotherapy, although there are studies that have undergone an autologous HSCT, followed or not treatment "maintenance" with imatinib. The low toxicity of autologous HSCT and no effect of graft versus leukemia are strongly recommended the administration of maintenance therapy with imatinib combined with chemotherapy or not.
Due to the high rate of resistance to clarithromycin in our area the investigators proposed an study to assess the need of antibiogram previous to the empirical OCA 10 treatment, in order to improve the rate of eradication.
Embryo selection based on the use of morphometric parameters should increase the implantation success rate. One of the most important issues of "Assisted Reproduction Technologies (ART)" is the possibility of multiple pregnancies which carries a significant risk for maternal-fetal health. These risks can be reduced by restricting the number of embryos transferred. To do this, it is essential to improve current techniques of embryo selection by developing new tools that would allow the selection of the embryos with higher implantation potential. In previous works (Molina et al 2011) the investigators have demonstrated greater efficacy for the embryo classification systems based on the use of the morphometric variables. The investigators have also developed a profile of embryo implantation using these morphometric variables. In this project the investigators intend to validate the clinical validity of this new embryo classification system by conducting a prospective study of single embryo transfer (SET) in young women at risk of multiple pregnancies.
Single-Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy is a modified and simplified duodenal switch. It is performed on morbid obese patients and severe T2DM patients with obesity, and a proper weight loss is expected as well as a decrease in the cardiac risk and a remission of T2DM. A lower complication rate than for duodenal switch is expected.
The main objective of this post-market surveillance study is to compare the subject's weight loss and quality of life, and device safety performance of the abiliti System and the adjustable gastric banding therapies in obese to morbidly obese subjects.
The purpose of this study is to determine the value the additional antiproteinuric effects of vitamin D derivatives treatment, in patients with Chronic Kidney Illness phase II-IV, with lack of vitamin D and residual proteinuria higher 0,5 grams/day.
