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.
Severe pneumoniae related to Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), had a high in-hospital mortality; this condition are worst in subjects with acute kidney disease (AKI); conditioning increased mortality, days of assisted mechanical ventilation (AMV), increased nosocomial infections and high costs. We need many studies for determinated the risk factors for AKI in subjects with COVID-19. This study pretends identify the incidence of AKI in subjects with severe pneumoniae by COVID-19, describe the role of some biomarkers in the physiopathology of AKI-COVID-19; and determine the evolution of urinary biomarkers during hospitalization, like neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2), insulin-like growth factor binding protein-7 (IGFBP7), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) and the progression of viruria of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) related to CoronaVirus 2 (CoV2) in subjects with or without AKI.
Clinical research focused to evaluate the effect as coadyuvant of a combination of L. plantarum and P. acidilactici in adults positive for SARS-CoV-2 with mild clinical COVID-19 symptoms. Main objective is to evaluate how this combination of probiotics reduce the risk to progress to moderate or severe COVID and associated advantages such as reduce the risk of death. Adittionnally this RCT is launching to explore the benefits of this combination of strains to modulate fecal microbiome and explore how this correlate with clinical improvement.
SARS-CoV-2 infection induces a hyperinflammatory syndrome, causing the acute respiratory distress syndrome, massive lung cell destruction and, as a plausible sequelae, pulmonary fibrosis in COVID-19 patients. Current focus has been on the development of novel immunosuppressant therapies, in order to control the cytokine storm in COVID-19 patients. Thus, the effect of steroids, intravenous immunoglobulin, non-steroidal immunosuppressants, selective cytokine blockade, JAK/STAT pathway inbhibition, and mesenchymal precursor cells have been evaluated. Based on the above information, we propose COLLAGEN-POLYVINYLPYRROLIDONE (Distinctive name: FibroquelMR, active substance: Collagen-polyvinylpyrrolidone, pharmaceutical form: intramuscular injectable solution, with sanitary registration No. 201M95 SSA IV and SSA code: 010 000 3999) as a potential drug for the downregulation of the cytokine storm. Polymerized type I collagen reduces the expression of IL-1β, IL-8, TNF-alpha, TGF-β1, IL-17, Cox-1, leukocyte adhesion molecules (ELAM-1, VCAM- 1 and ICAM-1), some other mediators of inflammation and increases the levels of IL-10 and the number of regulatory T cells. In addition, it promotes the mechanisms of inhibition of tissue fibrosis, without adverse effects in rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind phase I clinical study of anti-SARS-CoV-2 equine immunoglobulin F(ab')2 fragments (INOSARS) to evaluate the safety and antiviral efficacy for the treatment of adult patients with mild COVID-19 and low risk of disease progression.
This Clinical Trial evaluates nasal administration of Dexamethasone as an adjuvant treatment strategy for non-critically ill hospitalized participants with SARS CoV-2 infection.
The diagnosis of anal cancer is superior with the Anal Test system compared to liquid cytology and anoscopy.
Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), has led to unprecedented morbidity and mortality in the modern era. To date, nearly 13 million people have contracted COVID-19, leading to more than 550,000 deaths worldwide. As the number of affected individuals continues to climb, effective strategies for treatment and prevention of the disease are of paramount importance. SARS-CoV-2 is understood to directly invade cells via the human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, which is expressed predominantly in the lungs but also throughout the cardiovascular system. Thus, while acute respiratory distress syndrome remains a feared complication, new thromboembolic disease has emerged as a common and potentially catastrophic manifestation of COVID-19.
The therapeutic hypothesis for the use of losmapimod in COVID-19 disease is that increased mortality and severe disease is caused by p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-mediated exaggerated acute inflammatory response resulting from SARS-CoV-2 infection. The study Sponsor hypothesizes that the early initiation of p38α/β inhibitor therapy in patients hospitalized with moderate COVID-19 who are at increased risk of a poor prognosis based on older age and elevated systemic inflammation will reduce clinical deterioration including progression to respiratory failure and death. To address this hypothesis, Fulcrum Therapeutics is conducting a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of losmapimod versus placebo in subjects 40 and older who are hospitalized with moderate COVID-19 disease.
Knee Osteoarthritis is one of the most frequent rheumatic disorders in the population and, in many cases, it causes disability due to pain, stiffness and deformation. The drugs available for treatment cause adverse events that are sometimes very severe and, for this reason, the development of new drugs for topical administration with fewer adverse events is desirable. OBJECTIVE: To elaborate a phytopharmaceuticals for topical administration with a standardized extract of Sphaeralcea angustifolia and evaluate its efficacy and therapeutic tolerability when administered in patients diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: An extract will be obtained from the aerial parts of the plant species S. angustifolia with which a phytomedicine will be designed in a pharmaceutical presentation for topical administration. Once the phytomedicine has been designed, it will be scaled at the pilot plant level and the drug produced will be subjected to a clinical study in order to evaluate its efficacy and therapeutic tolerability in patients diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis. Through a double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical study with 2% diclofenac, patients will be treated topically for four weeks. The evolution of the disease will be evaluated weekly during the four weeks of treatment through the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) of function. The primary outcome variable will be: therapeutic efficacy (clinical parameters for the evolution of knee pain). The secondary outcome variables will be therapeutic tolerability (side effects that are triggered by the application of the drug), and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) of function. A scale used to evaluate function of the knee
Rationale: The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) dysregulation may play a central role in the pathophysiology of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection associated acute lung injury (ALI) / acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). In the RAAS, Angiotensin I (Ang I) is converted to angiotensin II (Ang II) by angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). Ang II mediates vasoconstrictive, pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative effects through agonism at Ang II type 1 receptor (AT1R). ACE2 converts Ang II to angiotensin 1-7 (Ang1-7), which finally binds to Mas receptor (MasR) and mediates many beneficial actions, including vasodilation and anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and antiapoptotic effects. ACE2, a homologue of ACE, is an integral cell membrane protein with a catalytic domain on the extracellular surface exposed to vasoactive peptides. SARS-CoV-2 penetrates the cell through ACE2, and the increase of this receptor (due to the use of ACE inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers [ARBs]) may facilitate SARS-CoV-2 infection, which might increase the risk of developing severe and fatal SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, through upregulation of ACE2, ACE inhibitors/ARBs can exert anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects, which may be beneficial in preventing ALI and ARDS. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of telmisartan in respiratory failure due to COVID-19. Study design: This is an open label, phase 2 clinical trial. Study population: Adult hospitalized SARS-CoV-2-infected patients (n=60). Intervention: The active-treatment arm will receive telmisartan 40 mg daily and the control arm will receive standard care. Treatment duration will be 14 days or up to hospital discharge <14 days or occurrence of the primary endpoint if <14 days. Main study endpoint: The primary study endpoint is the occurrence within 14 days of randomization of either: 1) Mechanical ventilation or 2) Death.
