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.
Observational study to know the Impact of morning symptoms in clinical control of COPD patients. 1200 patients will be included by General practitioners (GPs) and pneumologists. Objective: establish if there are differences in the impact of COPD on daily activities and morning symptoms measured through questionnaires of daily life activity (Capacity of Daily Living during the Morning (CDLM), Global Chest Symptoms Questionnaire (GCSQ))
The purpose of this study was to determine whether LI administered in combination with cyclophosphamide, indomethacin and zinc in a multivitamin (CIZ) combination prior to standard of care therapy (surgery followed by radiotherapy or concurrent radiochemotherapy) is safe and will increase the overall survival of subjects with previously untreated locally advanced primary squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity or soft palate at a median of 3 to 5 years
This is a non-interventional, prospective, longitudinal cohort study. A total of 150 pediatric subjects with glaucoma or elevated intraocular pressure, including 75 latanoprost-treated subjects and 75 non-topical prostaglandin analogue treated subjects, will be enrolled from ophthalmic hospital clinics and academic ophthalmic centers. As a non-interventional study, the study subjects' continued use of latanoprost and assessments of ocular events will be obtained through the routine medical follow-up with treating ophthalmologists or other designated members of the medical care team.
In spite of the achievements and developement of the assisted reproduction techniques in the last years, there is still an elevated percentage of unsuccessful treatments, needing sometimes repeated attempts to reach pregnancy. The molecular physiology of sperm is being better characterized, and some reports have demonstrated the implication of different molecular processes in the pathophysiology of male infertility. Recently, different sperm selection methods have been based on these molecular differences, showing a better quality of the sperm population after selection. The main objective of this research project is to clinically apply these techniques in order to increase the pregnancy rates per cycle in infertile couples attending assisted reproduction treatments.
Development of stroke associated pneumonia (SAP) has a detrimental effect on stroke outcome. Biomarker-guided antibiotic treatment of patients at high risk for pneumonia may help to improve stroke outcome. Therefore, the investigators will evaluate whether intensified infection monitoring via Procalcitonin guiding an early standardized antibiotic treatment improves functional outcome after stroke compared with standard therapy based on current guidelines.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effects on anthropometric, glucose metabolism and lipid profile biomarkers of exchanging with high-protein, low-glycemic index products (40-30-30) the habitual breakfast, mid-morning and afternoon snacks on type-2 diabetes patients following a chronologically scheduled pattern.
The clinical hypothesis of this study is that the first-line treatment with the combination of panitumumab and paclitaxel will provide benefit for patients with metastatic or current Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck (SCCHN)
The purpose of this trial is to assess the non-inferior antiviral activity of GSK1349572 50 mg plus Abacavir/Lamivudine once daily versus Efavirenz/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (ATRIPLA® a trade mark of Bristol-Myers Squibb and Gilead Sciences LLC) over 48 weeks; non-inferiority will also be tested at Week 96. This study will be conducted in HIV-1 infected ART-naïve adult subjects. Long term antiviral activity, tolerability, safety, and development of viral resistance will be evaluated.
In Spain, the gastric carcinoma is the 5th most frequent malignant tumor in women and the 6th in men, and represents the 3rd cause of cancer-related deaths amongst women and the 4th amongst men. The average of 5-year survival rate in Spain is under 30%. The main reason of it is that, despite carrying out an adjuvant treatment, more than the 50% will present relapsed disease. Sorafenib has been the first RAF inhibitor, both of RAF-1 and B-rRAF and its b-RAF variant V600E. Moreover, it has shown its ability to inhibit other tyrosin-quinase receptors as VEGFR 2 and 3, c-kit, Flt-3 or PDGFR. Its activity has been clearly proven in clear cell renal carcinoma. The mechanism by which Sorafenib seems to act is not because of the existence of a mutation of RAS or RAF, but because as there is a VHL shortage the HIP produces a VEGF, bFGF or TGF overexpression that produces in turn a hyper-stimulation on the RAF/ERK/MEK pathway. The RAF/MEK/ERK pathway and angiogenesis seem to be clearly involved in the gastric carcinoma tumorigenesis and progression. Because of that, it seems interesting to associate Sorafenib to an oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy, which has shown its effectiveness in relapsed patients after receiving cisplatin-based schemes. Moreover, there is a phase 1 trial confirming the tolerance of the oxaliplatin and Sorafenib association, describing partial responses amongst gastric cancer patients previously treated with cisplatin.
The primary objective of the study is to confirm the clinical efficacy of epratuzumab in the treatment of subjects with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
