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 study will assess the safety and efficacy of ixekizumab (LY2439821) compared to etanercept and placebo in participants with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis.
Obesity prevalence in elderly populations has increased in the last years, and the reduction of overweight and obesity is a priority target in populations of all age ranges worldwide. Obesity is a disease frequently accompanied by a pro-inflammatory state, in which metabolic functions may be compromised, and therefore there is a risk of developing comorbidities such as type-2 diabetes, hyperlipidemias, hypertension, atherosclerosis, etc. In this context, plant extracts are a good source of antioxidant compounds. Among these compounds, polyphenols have been shown to have an important antioxidant effect. Scientific evidence based on epidemiological studies suggest that flavonoids from the diet play an important role on the prevention of cardiovascular disease. Cocoa and related products are an important source of flavonoids, providing even more than tea or wine. Generally, benefits associated to cocoa consumption are related to the ability for improving lipid profile and insulin sensitivity, reducing blood pressure, platelet activity and improving endothelial dysfunction. Some studies have also shown an improvement of inflammatory conditions, mainly due to the capacity of the polyphenols contained to modify cellular transcription, and the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, macrophages and lymphocytic strains. Therefore, the hypothesis of this study is that the consumption of cocoa extract-enriched prepared meals, within a hypocaloric diet, will help to reduce body weight and to improve cardiovascular risk factors compared to the same diet with standard prepared meals.
This study aims to examine the efficacy of levosimendan in terms of reducing postoperative mortality and severe morbidity in patients undergoing non-emergent surgery for coronary revascularisation with or without ischaemic mitral regurgitation and who may or may not require repair or replacement of the mitral valve and have a LVEF < 35%.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of TT-173 in healthy volunteers after tooth extraction.
Total knee arthroplasty is often associated with excessive postoperative bleeding due to increased fibrinolysis. Hence, the objective of the proposed of this multicentre study is to determine the peri-operative bleeding comparing the application of topical and intravenous tranexamic acid with the habitual surgical haemostasis.
The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that patients with CML who have not achieved optimal response after 3 months of treatment with imatinib will have a better response by switching to dasatinib compared to staying on their original imatinib regimen.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of iniparib administered as monotherapy or in combination regimens in patients previously treated with iniparib in a clinical study and who have derived clinical benefit after completion of the parental study's objectives.
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a very common condition in immature newborn babies and it has been associated to morbidity and mortality. Ibuprofen is the drug of choice for PDA treatment according to the last version of the Cochrane review. Nowadays the best dose regimen for ibuprofen remains uncertain. The investigators aim to perform a randomized controlled clinical trial to assess whether echocardiographically guided PDA ibuprofen treatment versus standard treatment could reduce the number of doses of ibuprofen without increasing the reopening rate and reducing the side effects associated to this medication.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and the safety of the cyclocoagulation using High Intensity Focused Ulatrsound with the EYEOP1 device in glaucoma patients
The purpose of this study is to identify and characterize the Somatic Stem Cell (SSC) responsible for the formation and growth of leiomyomas using the Side Population method.
