There are about 5012 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Mexico. 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.
The study is designed as a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study to demonstrate the superiority of iptacopan (LNP023) at a dose of 200 mg b.i.d. compared to placebo on top of maximally tolerated ACEi or ARB on reduction of proteinuria and slowing renal disease progression in primary IgA Nephropathy patients.
In the SARS-CoV2 pandemic, imaging studies proved its diagnostic utility to determine the severity of lung involvement. Computed tomography (CT) is a state-of-the-art study proven to be a highly sensitive diagnostic test complemented by RT-PCR testing to determine the disease and the degree of severity. In March 2020, the Dutch Society of Radiology developed a standardized assessment scheme for COVID-19 lung disease, called CO-RADS. This system proposes a level of suspicion of pulmonary involvement of COVID-19, based on the simple chest tomography findings. The level of suspicion ranges from very low (CO-RADS 1) to very high (CO-RADS 5), with two additional categories involving a technically deficient study (CO-RADS 0) and a positive RT-PCR test for SARS -CoV-2 known before tomography (CO-RADS 6). For its part, acute respiratory damage secondary to SARS-COV2 pneumonia causes acute respiratory distress syndrome, which warrants immediate medical attention. During the evaluation and triage of patients with suspected or confirmed SARS-COV2 infection, it is a challenge for health personnel given that the severity and clinical presentation is highly variable. The patient's risk stratification is carried out using previously established and validated risk scales and is a fundamental tool for making clinical decisions. Some of the risk indices and scales have been developed and used in the pandemic epicenters, such as China and Europe. Useful for the clinician is the national early warning scale (NEWS 2), severe disease risk assessment score (COVID-GRAM), the rapid severity index for COVID-19 (qCSI), evaluation score of Modified sequential organ failure (mSOFA), the sepsis-induced coagulopathy score (SIC), the ROX index as a predictor of success to the high-flow nasal cannula. The evaluation of the risk of thrombotic complications such as the Padua risk, of cardiac complications such as QT segment prolongation, through the Tisdale risk score. Risk stratification is essential in the current COVID-19 pandemic situation; upon admission, the clinician will discern if the patient requires in-hospital medical treatment, the risk of severe disease, and progression to assisted mechanical ventilation. This work aims to establish whether the severity of the findings identified by cardiac tomography upon admission and the risk established by the different established prognostic indices.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sotatercept (MK-7962) treatment (plus background pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) therapy) versus placebo (plus background PAH therapy) at 24 weeks in adults with PAH. The primary hypothesis of the study is that the participants receiving sotatercept will have improved 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) at 24 weeks compared to participants receiving placebo.
This study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of molnupiravir (MK-4482) compared to placebo. The primary hypothesis is that molnupiravir is superior to placebo as assessed by the percentage of participants who are hospitalized and/or die through Day 29
This study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of molnupiravir (MK-4482) compared to placebo. The primary hypothesis is that molnupiravir is superior to placebo as assessed by the rate of sustained recovery through Day 29.

Thirteen healthy subjects (5 males; 8 females) ages 25-50 years, with BMI (body mass index): <25 kg/m2 completed the study. The participants were selected randomly, either the control group (n= 7) or honey group (n= 6). Subjects of honey group consumed 25 g of honey each day for 4 weeks.
Introduction: SARS-CoV2 infection produces severe pneumonia with pulmonary alveolar collapse. There is no specific treatment to date. In experimental models and humans with septic shock, there is a high production of nitric oxide (NO) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) and can cause multiple organ failure. The administration of antioxidants such as n-acetylcysteine (NAC), vitamin C, melatonin, and vitamin E participate in increasing the intracellular content of GSH, ROS sequestration, protection of the lipids of cell membranes, cytosol proteins, nuclear DNA, mitochondrial and decrease LPO. Justification: as there is no specific antiviral therapy, the therapeutic options are limited, complications and mortality are high; It is intended to evaluate the effect of antioxidants on the storm outcome of the dysregulation of oxidative stress. Hypothesis: It is postulated that adjuvant therapy with antioxidants and Pentoxifylline reduces the use of ventilators in patients with or without septic shock secondary to severe SARS-COV2 pneumonia as decreases lipoperoxidation, and corrects dysregulation of oxidative stress by increasing the antioxidant capacity. Objectives: To evaluate whether it is possible to avoid intubation or decrease assisted mechanical ventilation days, improve oxidative stress dysregulation in patients with SARS-COV2 infection with severe pneumonia with or without septic shock. Methodology: Quasi-experimental, open analytical, prospective, and longitudinal study (before-after). In patients over 18 years of age who are admitted to the CITIBANAMEX Center with or without septic shock secondary to severe SARS-COV2 pneumonia. There will be two groups: 1) patients without septic shock and 2) patients with septic shock secondary to severe pneumonia due to SARS-COV2. A single antioxidant will be applied following the clinical decision tree (NAC, Vit C, Vit E, melatonin) more Pentoxifylline orally or by orogastric tube for a total of 5 days from the start of the protocol. APACHE II will calculate the risk, SOFA, MEXSOFA, measurements of IL-8, vitamin C, NO3 / NO2, LOP, total antioxidant capacity will be carried out at baseline and 48 hours. SOFA will be calculated for seven days, in addition to days of hospitalization, days of mechanical ventilation. It was evaluated 28 days after discharge by telephone.
Cancer patients are considered vulnerable to COVID-19 infection. During the pandemic, cancer patients may need to continue their regular treatment of chemotherapy and / or radiotherapy and therefore must visit a hospital unit. As such, they may be at risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection by means of close contact to other patients and health care workers. Hospitals may implement policies to identify symptomatic subjects and limit their access to the chemotherapy / radiotherapy unit. However, asymptomatic COVID-19 positive patients may escape these filters and potentially be contagious to other patients and their health-related workers that care for other several patients. Therefore, there is a real risk of an outbreak that affects a particularly fragile patient population. Patients and their doctors need to know what is the risk associated to visiting a chemotherapy unit in order to decide if the risk outweighs the benefits of cancer treatment in their particular case. To date, this risk is unknown. The study will test patients and health care workers for COVID-19 infection during the peak of the pandemic in a chemotherapy unit in Mexico in order to determine this risk.
