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.
One hundred Spanish postmenopausal women accepted to be investigated for cardiovascular risk actors including clinical features, serum biochemical parameters, single nucleotide polymorphisms for estrogen receptor, and imaging parameters, carotid intima-media thickness (91 women) and coronary computed tomography (32 women). Multivariable analysis confirmed that both age and glucose level directly affected IMT. Estrogenic exposure, as measured by the allele associated with lower expression of the ER beta gene, was protective at the sinus and the wall. Findings at the coronary arteries, either moderate or high calcium index (CAC) and/or significant lumen stenosis were sporadic and did not allow for establishing association with any of the variables assessed.
This Phase II, single-arm study is designed to evaluate the effect of atezolizumab treatment in participants with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial bladder cancer. Participants will be enrolled into 1 of 2 cohorts. Cohort 1 (reported here) will consist of participants who are treatment-naïve and ineligible for cisplatin-containing chemotherapy. Cohort 2 will contain participants who have progressed during or following a prior platinum-based chemotherapy regimen. The results of the second cohort are reported separately (NCT02108652). Participants in both cohorts will be given a 1200 milligrams (mg) intravenous (IV) dose of atezolizumab on Day 1 of 21-day cycles. Treatment of participants in Cohort 1 will continue until disease progression per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) or unmanageable toxicity. Treatment of participants in Cohort 2 will continue until loss of clinical benefit or unmanageable toxicity.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a bundle of measures specifically designed for patients with ICD and applied by and Infectious Diseases expert during a year period (2017) will improve the prognosis and reduce the rate of recurrence, compared with the baseline phase (2015) in which no intervention was made.
This Phase IIb, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter, international study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sildenafil or placebo added to pirfenidone (Esbriet) treatment in participants with advanced IPF and intermediate or high probability of Group 3 pulmonary hypertension (PH) who are on a stable dose of pirfenidone with demonstrated tolerability. Participants will be randomized to receive 1 year of treatment with either oral sildenafil or matching placebo while continuing to take pirfenidone.
Adenomas in Lynch syndrome have an accelerated progression to colorectal cancer (CRC) which might occur despite a regular follow-up. Despite low evidence, high-definition technology (HD) and indigo-carmine chromoendoscopy (CE) are recommended for surveillance in Lynch syndrome.The investigators will conduct a prospective multicenter randomized non-inferiority study. The principal aim is to compare the adenoma detection rate with WLE vs CE. Our hypothesis is that HD-white-light endoscopy (WLE) is not inferior to CE. Therefore - under expert hands - HD-CE does not add any significant advantage over HD-WLE on adenoma detection rate in patients with Lynch syndrome.
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active-controlled, parallel group, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of VX-440 in dual and triple combination with tezacaftor (TEZ; VX-661) and ivacaftor (IVA; VX-770) in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are homozygous for the F508del mutation of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene (F508del/F508del), or who are heterozygous for the F508del mutation and a minimal function (MF) CFTR mutation not likely to respond to TEZ and/or IVA therapy (F508del/MF).
The primary aim of this study therefore is to investigate the effects on pain and disability of an emphasized exercise program targeting the deep neck extensor semispinalis cervicis and a general exercise program for all neck extensor muscles in patients with chronic neck pain. As a secondary aim , pain intensity (VAS), cervical ROM, pressure pain threshold (PPT), cervical and thoracic posture and self-perceived benefit of treatment (GROC) were measured. The investigators hypothesized that both exercise programs would have similar effects on pain alleviation and pain related disability, but that the emphasized exercise program for the deep semispinalis cervicis would improve its activation more compared to the general exercise program. The results of this study will be relevant for designing effective rehabilitation/training programs for patients with chronic neck pain.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether inhalation of 7% hypertonic saline (HS) twice daily for 48 weeks reduces structural lung disease as assessed by computed tomography (CT) in comparison with inhalation of 0.9% isotonic saline (IS) in preschool children (ages 3 to 6) with cystic fibrosis.
The aim of this study is to identify the psychological, emotional and lifestyle variables that can have an influence on the different components of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and develop a program for change lifestyle in this patients.
272 subjects with "high risk" adult spinal deformity requiring surgical correction were enrolled in the previous prospective multi-center international Scoli-RISK-1 study. "High risk" patients were defined by either their diagnoses and/or the type of surgical intervention as listed in the inclusion criteria. Neurological complications in the form of new motor and sensory deficits were monitored prospectively in all patients at hospital discharge, at 6 weeks (± 2 weeks), 6 months (± 2 months) and 24 months (± 2 months) after the surgery. The relationship to the surgical intervention was assessed in all new deficits. Regression analyses were used to evaluate the association between patient demographics, co-morbidities, treatment history, spinal deformity characteristics, surgical characteristics, non-neurologic complications and pre-surgical status to occurrence of a neurologic deficit after surgery. All enrolled Scoli-RISK-1 participants will be re-consented and asked to return for a 5 year FU visit.
