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 evaluate the safety and efficacy of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) plus peginterferon α-2a (PEG) combination therapy versus standard of care TDF monotherapy or PEG monotherapy in non-cirrhotic adults with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV). The study will consist of 2 phases for participants in the TDF+PEG 48 week, TDF 48 week+PEG 16 week, and PEG 48 week groups. Following an initial 48 weeks of treatment, participants in these groups will be monitored for 24 weeks for signs of worsening HBV, and those with new signs and/or symptoms will be eligible to receive TDF monotherapy during a retreatment phase, up to Week 120.
Adults with Crohn's disease that is clinically active despite conventional treatment will be eligible for this study. Patients may receive one of three doses of PF-00547659 (experimental drug) or placebo (inactive drug). Disease activity will be measured every two weeks.
Advanced colorectal cancer (ACRC) is a heterogeneous disease and classification of patients is nowadays inefficient. Roughly twenty per cent of patients present with favorable figures (less than 4 liver nodules and less than 5 cm) and are suitable for local treatments (surgery or local-ablative therapies). Additionally, 10-15% of patients have poor performance status (PS >2) or are severe disabled due to geriatric syndromes or/and co-morbid diseases that preclude any treatment strategies than best supportive care alone. The rest of patients (fit patients not suitable for radical treatments) constitute the population of patients treated with palliative therapies. Despite of it not all these patients have the same prognosis. Patients with PS 0,1 and levels of LDH <ULN (Intermediate-risk patients) have better PFS and OS irrespective of therapy in all randomized clinical trials (de Gramont et al, JCO 2000; Douillard et al, Lancet 2000; Koopman et al, 2007). CRYSTAL trial shows a benefit in PFS (1.5 months) in RASWT of FOLFIRI plus cetuximab compared with FOLFIRI alone. Nowadays the selection of patients for cetuximab treatment is based on mutational status of KRAS, which allow to select those patients who will not respond to therapy. Other surrogate markers of activity should be also evaluated. Our hypothesis is that the suggested biomarkers will allow the selection of the patients who will benefit the most from the biweekly cetuximab treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Transverse Friction Massage (TFM) in Latent Myofascial Trigger points (MTrP) is more effective making this technique in two different ways.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of HCD122 (Lucatumumab) when combined with bendamustine in patients with follicular lymphoma.
Effectiveness of a physical therapy program focussed on core stability exercise and massage as a recovery method in breast cancer survivors after oncology treatment.
This is a prospective, open controlled trial in which naïve HIV-1 patients will be randomized to receive atazanavir / ritonavir or darunavir / ritonavir in combination with tenofovir / emtricitabine. They will be followed up during 96 weeks to determinate the cholesterol levels. Randomization will be stratified according to the values of the ratio of total cholesterol/HDL cholesterol obtained during the screening visit (as they will be <4.5 or ≥ 4.5).
The purpose of this study is to determine the PK/PD, efficacy and safety of GP2013 in patients with severe rheumatoid arthritis.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetics (blood levels) of trabectedin after administration to patients with advanced malignancies and hepatic (liver) dysfunction.
Helicobacter pylori is the main cause of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer and gastric tumors (adenocarcinoma and lymphoma). The cure of the H. pylori infection prevents recurrence of duodenal and gastric ulcer and improves dyspepsia in a significant proportion of cases, so it is cost-effective. Eradication therapy has changed over time. The usually recommended pattern in the consensus conferences has traditionally been triple therapy, composed by the combination of 2 antibiotics (clarithromycin plus amoxicillin or metronidazole) and a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) for 7-14 days. Recent meta-analyses have that the current global eradication rate after standard triple therapy is less than 80%. Several European studies have found even lower eradication rates, with 35-40% of cases resulting in treatment failure. Treatment failure leads to a second treatment and a new diagnostic test to confirm eradication.
