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 double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multinational, multicenter, parallel-group, Phase 3, 2-arm, study will investigate the efficacy and safety of belumosudil compared with placebo, both administered on top of azithromycin and standard-of-care regimen of immunosuppression in male or female participants at least 1 year after bilateral lung transplant, who are at least 18 years of age and who have evidence of progressive CLAD despite azithromycin therapy. Study details include: The study duration will be up to 31 weeks for participants not entering the open-label extension (OLE) period and up to 57 weeks for participants entering the OLE period but not the long-term OLE. The treatment duration will be up to 26 weeks for participants not entering the OLE period and up to 52 weeks for participants entering the OLE period but not the long-term OLE. The number of visits will be up to 10 visits for participants not entering the OLE period and up to 16 visits for participants entering the OLE period but not the long-term OLE. For participants who enter the long-term OLE, treatment and study participation will continue with visits every 12 weeks per protocol specifications.
This study aims to adapt and apply a psychological program aimed at improving cognitive reserve (CR) in bipolar patients who have recently presented a first episode of the illness. The purpose of this project is to test both the effectiveness of the psychological intervention as well as the stability of the obtained results after nine months of follow-up. One-hundred and twenty patients (60 patients each centre) will be recruited and assessed with clinical, functioning, quality of life, neuropsychological and RC assessment tools. Then, participants will be randomly assigned to two different conditions: the experimental one, consisting in the implementation of the psychological intervention aiming at improving CR (n=60), and the control one, in which the usual pharmacological treatment will be carried on (n=60). Once the psychological intervention has finished (3 months) re-assessment of all the explored variables at baseline will be performed. Finally, after 12 months from the baseline visit, a re-assessment of all the participants in the study will be carried out to verify that post-intervention obtained results remain stable throughout the complete follow-up period. The investigators hypothesized that patients with a recent first episode who have undergone the intervention program will improve their CR as well as measures related to the severity of the difficulties observed at baseline concerning clinical, functioning, quality of life and neurocognitive performance. A second hypotheses is that all these changes will remain stable after nine month follow-up.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most common causes of mortality worldwide. Despite drug eluting stents (DES) are the most common treatment strategy, drug-coated balloons (DCB) represent an appealing alternative to DES as they eliminate the risk of stent thrombosis and do not leave any type of metallic structure in the vessel wall. However, the evidence of the vessel wall healing processes, plaque remodeling, plaque composition and impact on coronary microcirculation after PCI with DCB have not yet been characterized. The purpose of this study is to assess the changes in percentage atheroma volume evaluated by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in patients undergoing DCB-PCI.
Physical exercise is one of the main recommendations included in clinical guidelines for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) because it is associated with substantially lower cardiovascular and overall mortality risks. Adherence to regular physical activity is low in the T1D population due to factors like time limitations, no access to appropriate equipment at home, or economic costs. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has been proposed as a time-efficient methodology, consisting of sessions of short duration and high intensity exercises. An easier and cheaper training alternative for HIIT is exercising with elastic bands, either in a clinic or at home. Even so, training with elastic bands in T1D in combination with the HIIT method has not been compared to aerobic training. Besides, it is necessary to understand the glycemic impact of both kinds of exercise in order to build better artificial pancreas systems able to deal with exercise automatically. The aim of the study will be to determine the impact of aerobic exercise versus high-intensity interval training (HIIT) exercise on glycemic control.
Achilles tendinopathy is the injury that primarily occurs in athletes and people who engage in repetitive activities that involve the calf muscles, such as running, jumping, and sudden acceleration and deceleration movements. To observe the effectiveness of dry needling in the PGM of the gastrocnemius muscle, in the short and medium term, on the intensity of pain in gastrocnemius muscle, in the short and medium term, on pain intensity in patients with patients with Achilles tendinopathy, compared to the application of ultrasound-guided percutaneous electrolysis on the tendon.
This is a study evaluating the safety and efficacy of bomedemstat (MK-3543) compared with the best available therapy (BAT) in participants with essential thrombocythemia (ET) who have an inadequate response to or are intolerant of hydroxyurea. The primary study hypothesis is that bomedemstat is superior to the best available therapy with respect to durable clinicohematologic response (DCHR).
The goal of this clinical trial is to study and describe the effects of bilateral tDCS applied to dorso-lateral-prefrontal cortex (DLPC) in patients with drug-resistant migraine in terms of reduction in frequency of pain, impact of pain in daily life, quality of sleep and psychological measures. We finally planned to include high frequency and chronic migraine patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Will bilateral DLPC tDCS be feasible, well tolerated and safe in drug resistant migraine patients? - Will bilateral DLPC tDCS be effective in reducing pain frequency, intensity and its impact in daily life activities? - Will bilateral DLPC tDCS be effective in ameliorating sleep and psychological associated symptoms? - Will bilateral DLPC tDCS be such effective in reducing pain frequency, intensity and its impact in daily life activities as anti-CGRP treatments? Participants will undergo 2 tDCS sessions daily for 2 consecutive weeks. Patients will be blinded to treatment and will be divided in two groups (real vs placebo). A third group of patients, age-matched to the other two, will undergo anti-CGRP treatment. Patients will be asked to complete Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROMs) scales at baseline, one week after the end of the treatment and at 6 months after the end of the treatment. Researchers (blinded to the treatment) will compare the group that underwent real tDCS treatment vs the one that underwent placebo tDCS vs the one that underwent anti-CGRP drugs to see if bilateral DLPC tDCS is effective in reducing migraine frequency, intensity and impact and if bilateral DLPC tDCS is such effective as anti-CGRP treatment.
This is a phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center, global study to explore the efficacy and safety of volrustomig in women with high-risk LACC (FIGO 2018 stage IIIC to IVA cervical cancer with lymph node involvement) who have not progressed following platinum-based CCRT.
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most common inherited myopathies in adults. It is associated with genetic and epigenetic deregulation of the D4Z4 locus on the sub-telomeric region of chromosome 4q35, resulting in abnormal expression of DUX4p. Type 1 FSHD (FSHD1) is the most common form of the disease and accounts for 95% of cases, while Type 2 FSHD (FSHD2) accounts for only 5% of all FSHD cases. FSHD1 and FSHD2 are closely related in terms of genetic and epigenetic foundations, pathophysiology and clinical manifestations. Although initially described as distinct entities based on their genetics, recent information suggests that both forms of myopathy may represent the opposite ends of a spectrum of molecular diseases in which alteration of the genetic and epigenetic factors that govern DUX4 suppression in skeletal muscle have a different impact in both forms of the disease. FSHD1 and FSHD2 are both associated with re-expression of DUX4 leading to muscle atrophy, but the genetics underlying this re-expression are different, depending on whether it is type 1 or type 2. For FSHD1, it is associated with a critical contraction of the D4Z4 region and the 4qA permissive allele, leading to the expression of DUX4. In contrast, FSHD2 is caused by the inheritance of two independent genetic variations. A heterozygous mutation, mainly located on the SMCHD1 (Structural Maintenance of Chromosome flexible Hinge Domain containing 1) gene, results in a loss of function of chromatin D4Z4 repressor. This mutation, combined with the 4qA allele bearing the DU4 polyadenylation site, makes this allele permissive for the expression of the DUX4 topical gene. Therefore, because the two forms of FSHD are genetically distinct and very few patients have FSHD2, our knowledge of the impact of chromatin D4Z4 repressors, such as SMCHD1, or the progression and severity of the disease remains very limited. It is important to note that a lack of reliable biomarkers specific to the severity and progression of the disease may prevent the development of therapies to treat patients with FSHD2. This study will allow us to better understand the natural progression of FSHD2 over time, to assess the responsiveness of clinical outcome measures (COMs) and to identify and validate inflammatory serum biomarkers predicting the severity and progression of the disease.
