There are about 1062 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Latvia. 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.
Recently, the fixed-dose combinations (FDC) KIVEXA™ (abacavir/lamivudine) and TRUVADA (tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine) have facilitated the usage of once-daily regimens. However data from head-to-head randomized trials comparing these two FDCs as part of an initial regimen are not available at present. The long-term toxicity profiles of these regimens are of particular importance, as treatment of HIV is currently life-long and therefore, minimizing long-term toxicity and maximizing adherence and duration of regimen maintenance are critical therapy objectives. The primary endpoint is estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR), as measured by the modified diet in renal disease (MDRD) equation, a validated estimate of renal function.
This 2-arm study will investigate the safety and tolerability of oseltamivir for the treatment of influenza in immunocompromised participants and characterize the effects of oseltamivir in immunocompromised participants on the development of resistant influenza virus. Eligible immunocompromised participants with laboratory-confirmed influenza will be randomized to receive either conventional dose (30 milligrams [mg] to 75 mg twice daily orally [po], depending on age and weight) or double dose (60 mg-150 mg twice daily po depending on age and weight) olseltamivir for 10 days. Nasal and throat swabs will be taken, and safety evaluations made, at intervals during the study. The anticipated time on study medication is 10 days and the anticipated time on study is 40 days.
This 2 arm study will assess the impact of Bone Marker Feedback (BMF), using serum CTX and communication of results at 3 months, on adherence to once monthly Bonviva (150mg po) in women with post-menopausal osteoporosis supported by PRP. Patients will be randomized either to receive BMF or no BMF; both groups will be supported by PRP. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of tanezumab in combination with opioids in treating pain due to cancer that has spread to bone.
Re-hospitalizations or deaths by worsening heart failure are often preceded by distinct trends of clinical parameters such as atrial or ventricular arrhythmia, activity, heart rate variability, or ventricular ectopy. The Home Monitoring™ capability offered by BIOTRONIK active implants has the potential to detect some of these trends early and thus to offer the possibility to intervene in time for prevention of fatal worsening of heart failure. To investigate the predictive value of Home Monitoring parameters, patients with symptomatic heart failure and reduced ejection fraction receiving an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) or an ICD in combination with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT-D) will be randomized between prospective patient management by Home Monitoring analysis or standard care. The influence of Home Monitoring on the clinical status of heart failure patients will be assessed.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the systemic exposure to tacrolimus in infants with atopic dermatitis after repeated application of tacrolimus ointment. Efficacy of tacrolimus ointment, evaluated by examination of treated areas, will also be measured.
The purpose of the study is to determine the reduction of LDL-cholesterol level after treatment with 50 mg per day of lapaquistat acetate once daily (QD).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy (ACR20) of Rob 803 administered orally once daily for 12 weeks in combination with a stable dose of methotrexate in subjects with moderate or severe active RA.
Determination the efficacy of daily oral treatment with laquinimod 0.6 mg capsules as compared to placebo in subjects with Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS).
The purpose of the study is to determine if the antibiotic ceftaroline is safe and effective in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia in adults.
