There are about 371 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Guatemala. 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 is a Phase 2/3 randomized, observer-blinded, placebo-controlled, age de-escalation trial to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of 2 primary doses and a booster dose of NVX CoV2373 given 21 days apart in pediatric participants (3 age cohorts; 6 to < 12 years, 2 to < 6 years, and 6 to < 24 months of age). Each age cohort will be conducted in 2 parts starting with the oldest age cohort (6 to < 12 years of age).
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) affects 1 percent of the population worldwide and up to 40 percent of patients don't respond to current treatments. MBS2320, the drug being tested in this trial, represents a new approach to treating RA, with the potential not only to reduce levels of inflammation but to also directly prevent bone damage. The aim of this project is to test the safety, tolerability and efficacy of MBS2320 in patients with RA in combination with an existing treatment, methotrexate. Approximately 224 participants with moderate to severe active RA who have not responded to treatment with Methotrexate will be enrolled from around 45 to 55 sites around the world. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive 1 of 3 doses of MBS2320 (5 mg, 20 mg, or 40 mg) or placebo (a "dummy" drug). The maximum duration of study participation for a participant will be 22 weeks, which consists of a Screening Period of up to 4 weeks, Treatment Period of 12 weeks, and a Follow-up Period of 6 weeks. Participants on the study will be asked to attend the hospital or clinic for regular visits during which they will have planned study assessments to evaluate the effectiveness, tolerability and safety of the study drug.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, 2-arm multicenter phase 3 study to assess the efficacy and safety of ianalumab in patients with active Sjogren's syndrome (NEPTUNUS-1)
The purpose of this study is to assess the clinical impact of a rapid multiplex PCR blood culture identification panel on time to optimal antimicrobial therapy when compared to conventional microbiological culture methods in children hospitalized in a low resource setting in Guatemala City.
This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab/vibostolimab (MK-7684A) in combination with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) followed by pembrolizumab/vibostolimab versus cCRT followed by durvalumab in participants with unresectable, locally advanced, stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). The primary hypotheses are that pembrolizumab/vibostolimab with cCRT followed by pembrolizumab/vibostolimab is superior to cCRT followed by durvalumab with respect to the following: - progression free survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR) in participants with programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥1% and PD-L1 all comer participants. - overall survival (OS) in participants with PD-L1 TPS ≥1% and PD-L1 all comer participants.
The purpose of this study is to better characterize and understand the population of patients with ambulatory or acutely decompensated heart failure in the American continent, getting to know their sociodemographic, clinical and paraclinical characteristics
Prior evidence, including formative work supporting the development of this study, suggests there is widespread vaccine hesitancy among Indigenous communities in Guatemala, fueled by mistrust in the health system, lack of official information, and the circulation of myths and misinformation. We will test the effectiveness of a video-based social media campaign that provides a basic overview of the science behind COVID-19 vaccines and addresses prevalent myths and misinformation being shared in target communities. A series of animated videos will be promoted through Facebook Ads and randomized at the individual level across Facebook users throughout the entire country. To investigate the effectiveness of Mayan language content, we are testing three treatment arms - visually identical videos in the 1) Spanish language, 2) K'iche' language, and 3) Kaqchikel language. Our primary outcomes are responses to two attitudinal questions collected via Facebook polling: 1) How safe do you think a COVID-19 vaccine is for people like you? (options: very safe, somewhat safe, barely safe, not safe, don't know); and 2) When you think of most people whose opinion you value, how much would they approve of people getting a COVID-19 vaccine? (options: definitely approve, mostly approve, somewhat approve, not at all approve, don't know). We will measure effects of the three treatment arms across Spanish speakers (including K'iche' and Kaqchikel speakers who also speak Spanish). We will also measure the effectiveness of K'iche vs. Spanish content among K'iche speakers and Kaqchikel vs. Spanish content for Kaqchikel speakers.
The purpose is to provide treatment with secukinumab delivered subcutaneously (s.c.) via pre-filled syringe (PFS) for participants who complete study treatment until the Week 104 of the core study CAIN457Q12301 and to obtain long term efficacy, safety and tolerability data
The purpose of this study is to characterize the bronchodilator effect, systemic exposure and safety/tolerability of two different doses of inhaled glycopyrronium, when compared to placebo. Outcome of this study will be used to determine the dose of inhaled glycopyrronium for the development of fixed dose combination indacaterol/mometasone/glycopyrronium (QVM149) for children aged 6 to less than 12 years old with moderate to severe asthma.
This study is being done to find out if zanidatamab, when given with chemotherapy plus or minus tislelizumab, is safe and works better than trastuzumab given with chemotherapy. The patients in this study will have advanced human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)-positive stomach and esophageal cancers that are no longer treatable with surgery (unresectable) or chemoradiation, and/or have grown or spread to other parts of the body (metastatic).
