There are about 1295 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Lithuania. 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.
Primary Objective: To demonstrate that sarilumab added to disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) is effective for: - reduction of signs and symptoms at Week 24 and - improvement of physical function at Week 12 in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are inadequate responders or intolerant to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) antagonists. Secondary Objectives: The secondary objectives are to investigate the effects of SAR153191 (REGN88) when added to DMARD therapy, in patients with active RA who are inadequate responders or intolerant to TNF-α antagonists, for: - Reduction of signs and symptoms at 12 weeks. - Improvement in physical function at Week 24. - Improvement in disease activity score as measured by other American College of Rheumatology derived components at Weeks 12 and 24. - Improvement in quality of life as measured by patient reported outcomes (PROs) at intermediate visits and Week 24. To assess the safety of sarilumab in this population. To assess the exposure of sarilumab added to DMARD therapy in this population.
The purpose of this study is to further enhance the existing knowledge regarding the side effects of belimumab when given with other lupus medicines to adults with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This study mainly focuses on collecting information on serious events that are not that common or may only be seen with long-term treatment. These events include death, serious infections and other infections of interest, cancers, serious mental health problems, including depression and suicide, and serious infusion and hypersensitivity reactions. This study is being done to help understand if treatment with belimumab increases the risk for these types of events. This study will also see if patients receiving belimumab with other lupus medicines can reduce their use of steroids, such as prednisone, over 1 year.
Evaluation of the histologically proven adenoma and carcinoma detection rate in patients undergoing a full colonoscopy with and without mucosal contrast enhancement, obtained with 200 mg of Methylene Blue MMX® tablets.
EUROPAIN Survey is an epidemiological study aimed at assessing current clinical practices regarding the use of sedative and analgesic drugs in newborns admitted to NICUs or PICUs in different countries in Europe. This study is conducted as part of the NeoOpiod study. The main objective of this study is to determine the current clinical practices regarding the use of sedative and analgesic drugs in newborns in intensive units in different countries in Europe. The principal criteria are: the frequency of ventilated neonates receiving sedation and analgesia, the medications used for sedation and analgesia in ventilated neonates, the length of use of medications administered for sedation and analgesia in ventilated neonates and similarities and differences in sedation and analgesia practices among European countries. The secondary objectives are: a) to determine the proportion of neonatal units that have developed and implemented local written guidelines to provide continuous sedation and analgesia in ventilated newborn infants as well as to prevent and treat procedural pain, b) to document the published guidelines for neonatal analgesia and sedation in different European countries and develop consensus for common European standards that can be applied in all medical settings, c) to determine the frequency of use of pain assessment tools in ventilated newborn infants and evaluate their impact on pain management practices and d) to determine practices to assess and prevent withdrawal syndromes. The EUROPAIN STUDY is observational and therefore it will not interfere with routine practices of participating units. No changes in diagnostic, therapeutic or any managing strategy of patients are imposed by the participation in this study. This epidemiological study will only collect data on clinical practices in each unit. It will include all neonates up to a corrected age of 44 weeks post conception. The maximum duration of data collection for every included infant is 28 days. Data collection will stop before 28 days if the infant leaves the unit (discharge, death, transfer to another hospital). Data will be entered on a secure web-based questionnaire.
The investigators hypothesize that Metformin decreases weight, normalizes lipid profile and increases insulin sensitivity; the study team hope to get better effect of weight decrease and metabolic processes repair in the intensive treatment group with intervention of physical activity, diet correction and Metformin use.
Primary Objective: To compare the efficacy of a new formulation of insulin glargine and Lantus in terms of change of HbA1c from baseline to endpoint (scheduled at Month 6, Week 26) in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus Secondary Objectives: To compare a new formulation of insulin glargine and Lantus in terms of: - occurrence of nocturnal hypoglycemia
This multicenter study will evaluate the correlation of interleukin 28B (IL28B) genotypes with disease characteristics and demographics in treatment-naïve and treatment-experienced chronic hepatitis C patients, including patients with HIV co-infection. There will be a single study visit for testing.
Auscultating Obese patients using the 3M Littmann Electronic Model 3200 Stethoscope is more effective in identifying referrable murmurs than using a traditional stethoscope.
Evaluate the safety and efficacy of Siponimod (BAF312) versus placebo in a variable treatment duration in patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (Core Part) followed by extended treatment with open-label BAF312 to obtain data on long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy (Extension Part).
Primary Objective: To compare the effect of alirocumab with placebo on the occurrence of cardiovascular (CV) events (composite endpoint of coronary heart disease (CHD) death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), fatal and non-fatal ischemic stroke, unstable angina (UA) requiring hospitalization) in participants who experienced an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) event 4 to 52 weeks prior to randomization and were treated with evidence-based medical and dietary management of dyslipidemia. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on secondary endpoints (any CHD event , major CHD event, any CV event, composite of all cause mortality/non-fatal MI/non-fatal ischemic stroke, CHD deaths, CV deaths, all cause mortality). - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab. - To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on lipid parameters.
