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.
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a transitional state between normal aging and early dementia, characterized by memory deficits without functional impairment. Cognitive decline prevalence is increasing in older adults, impacting independence and quality of life. Motor dysfunctions, often overlooked in MCI, contribute to these limitations. Action Observation Therapy (AOT), a rehabilitation approach involving observing and imitating motor gestures, promotes brain plasticity through the mirror neuron system. While AOT has shown effectiveness in various populations, its application in MCI is understudied. This study aims to investigate the effects of AOT on cognition, upper and lower limb function, daily activities, gait, and balance in MCI patients. It also compares outcomes when patients observe therapists or MCI individuals with similar characteristics. Primary objectives include comparing AOT efficacy between these groups and a control group. Secondary objectives focus on upper limb functionality, daily activities, balance, cognition, and gait.
Randomized controlled trial on mesh fixation using cyanoacrylate glue compared to standard suture in open inguinal hernia repair.
Metastases represent the most threatening challenge in cancer. One of the management strategies for patients with Oligometastatic Cancer (OC) is Stereotactic ABlative Radiotherapy (SABR). However, there are few studies, and there is no defined clinical standard, nor are the radiobiological mechanisms that contribute to treatment response well understood. The focus should be on generating evidence to guide the personalization of radiotherapy beyond solely technological and anatomical precision. This could be achieved by recollecting clinical and biological data from patients that undergo this treatment and analyzing them to ultimately predict, with the help of artificial intelligence, which patients will be the most beneficiary and improve their survival rate.
The purpose of this study is to learn if V940 which is an individualized neoantigen therapy (INT; formerly, called messenger ribonucleic acid [mRNA]-4157) with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) is safe and prevents cancer from returning in people with high-risk melanoma. Researchers want to know if V940 with pembrolizumab is better than receiving pembrolizumab alone at preventing the cancer from returning.
The main goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of triheptanoin versus Medium-chain Triglycerides (MCT) on frequency of Major Clinical Events (MCEs).
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of retatrutide once-weekly in participants who have obesity or are overweight and have osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. The study will lasts about 77 weeks.
Depression has a yearly prevalence superior to 5%, but a 30% of patients cannot benefit of pharmacological treatment, resulting resistant to it. Transcranial direct current stimulation, due to its reduced invasiveness and easy administration showed to be a useful technique to treat these cases, and it is now broadly used in clinical practice. Moreover, thanks to technological advances, this treatment could be self-administered at home, reducing costs and improving scalability. The aim of this study is to confirm the efficacy, safety and feasibility of a home-based intervention for treatment-resistant depression To do this participants will perform a home-based tDCS intervention consisting of 30 minutes sessions, 5 days per week, for 4 weeks. Results should provide critical knowledge regarding home-based therapies for the treatment of resistant depression and evidence on brain mechanisms underlying response to non-invasive brain stimulation.
Crohn's disease (CD) is an incurable chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract. This study will assess how safe and effective upadacitinib is in treating moderately to severely active CD in real world. Speed of onset and durability of effectiveness will be assessed. Upadacitinib is a drug approved for the treatment of CD. All study participants will receive upadacitinib as prescribed by their study doctor in accordance with approved local label. Approximately 1200 participants will be enrolled in approximately 230 sites across the world. Participants will receive upadacitinib as prescribed by their physician according to their routine clinical practice and local label. Participants will be followed for up to 3 years. There is expected to be no additional burden for participants in this trial. Study visits may be conducted on-site or virtually as per standard of care.
The study aims to examine the effects of a mindfulness-based intervention and a mindfulness-based intervention with virtual reality on occupational balance and on the reduction of psychological distress in university students (i.e. stress, anxiety and depression). The specific objectives will be to examine the effects of the intervention on other variables related to mental health, psychological functioning and occupations, and their maintenance at three months.
The purpose of this study is to is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retatrutide in participants with type 2 diabetes in participants who have obesity or overweight (J1I-MC-GZBK master protocol) including a subset of participants who have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (J1I-MC-GSA2). The study will last about 89 weeks and will include up to 24 visits.
