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.
After an Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction by surgery, the most important muscle of the knee, called quadriceps femoral, loses strength in more than 60% of cases, which if not corrected can progress to osteoarthritis in up to 80% of patients, compromising their quality of life. The main treatment for loss of muscle strength in these patients is rehabilitation which includes strength and endurance exercises.However, in some cases, amino acids such as Glutamine (Gln) have been employed as an aid to recover muscle strength, but the evidence on this topic is not consistent and is inconclusive. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to investigate if the oral complementation with Glutamine in combination with strength and resistance training can improve the muscle strength of the quadriceps femoral in patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction compared with those receiving a placebo after six weeks of intervention.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pemetrexed plus platinum chemotherapy (carboplatin or cisplatin) with or without pembrolizumab (MK-3475; KEYTRUDA®) in the treatment of adults with the following types of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-resistant, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated, metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors: 1) TKI-failures (including osimertinib [TAGRISSO®] failure) with T790M-negative mutation tumors, 2) T790M-positive mutation tumors with prior exposure to osimertinib, and 3) first-line osimertinib failure regardless of T790M mutation status. The primary study hypotheses are that the combination of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy has superior efficacy compared to saline placebo plus chemotherapy in terms of: 1) Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) based on blinded independent central review, and 2) Overall Survival (OS). This study will be considered to have met its success criteria if the combination of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy is superior to saline placebo plus chemotherapy in terms of PFS or OS. Upon study completion, participants are discontinued and may be enrolled in a pembrolizumab extension study, if available.
Patellar chondromalacia is the degeneration of articular cartilage located on the posterior face of the patella and may suggest the onset of an osteoarthrosis. It predominates in sedentary people who overload the joint, as well as people with insufficiency in the extensor muscles of the knee. It is often seen between 30 and 40 years. Conservative management is the main treatment option and surgical intervention is considered as a last option in a small number of patients. A new treatment option is neuroprolotherapy where the approach is directed at the subcutaneous nerves as the source of pathology, which can lead to neurogenic inflammation and pain.
Human milk (HM) is the gold standard of early infant nutrition. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommend that newborns be exclusively breastfed for the first 6 months of life. It has beed reported that an exclusive breast feeding at 6 months of age range from 10 to 46%. Thus, the intake of infant formulas (IF) is quite widespread, including infants that have less than 6 months that are not receiving breast milk. Most of the commercial IF are cow's milk-based formulas that have a higher concentration of protein than breast milk and have a different protein composition. Commercial IF have a low proportion of alpha lactoalbumin, and A1 β-casein; during its digestion, a β-casomorphin 7 peptide is produced. In addition, it has a high concentration of β-lactoglobulin. Both, β-casomorphin 7 and β-lactoglobulin have been associated with a higher risk of diabetes obesity and allergies. Human β-casein does not produce β-casomorphin 7 during its digestion, it has a high concentration of alpha-lactoalbumin and does not have β-lactoglobulin. The purpose of this study is to evaluate growth, gastrointestinal tolerance, and β-casomorphin 7 in urine of infants that are exclusively breastfed compared to infants fed three IF with different proteint content.
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of alirocumab administered every 2 weeks (Q2W) and every 4 weeks (Q4W) versus placebo after 24 weeks of double-blind (DB) treatment on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in participants with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (heFH) 8 to 17 years of age on optimal stable daily dose of statin therapy ± other lipid modifying therapies (LMTs) or a stable dose of non-statin LMTs in case of intolerance to statins. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the efficacy of alirocumab versus placebo on LDL-C levels. - To evaluate the effects of alirocumab versus placebo on other lipid parameters. - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab in comparison with placebo. - To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of alirocumab after open label treatment. - To evaluate the development of anti-alirocumab antibodies.
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of alirocumab (75 or 150 milligrams [mg] depending on body weight [BW]), administered every 2 weeks (Q2W), on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels at Week 12 of treatment in children and adolescents with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (hoFH) of 8 to 17 years of age on top of background treatments. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the efficacy of alirocumab after 24 and 48 weeks of treatment on LDL-C levels. - To evaluate the effects of alirocumab on other lipid parameters (eg, apolipoprotein B [Apo B], non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol [non-HDL-C], total cholesterol [Total-C], high density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL-C], lipoprotein a [Lp (a)], triglycerides [TG], apolipoprotein A-1 [Apo A-1] levels) after 12, 24, and 48 weeks of treatment. - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab up to 48 weeks of treatment.
A study of zolbetuximab (IMAB362) plus mFOLFOX6 versus placebo plus mFOLFOX6 in subjects with Claudin 18.2 positive, HER2-negative, locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Why is this study being done? SPOTLIGHT is a new clinical study for adult patients who have any of: - advanced unresectable gastric or GEJ cancer - metastatic gastric or GEJ cancer. These types of cancers have a unique set of proteins (called Claudin 18.2). We may be able to use a treatment that targets the proteins to kill the cancer cells. For patients with one of the types of cancer listed above, mFOLFOX6 (a combination of three chemotherapies known as Oxaliplatin, Leucovorin, and Fluorouracil) is a current treatment option. This study is testing an experimental medicine called zolbetuximab (IMAB362). Zolbetuximab attaches itself to Claudin 18.2 on the cancer cells causing cancer cell death. Patients will be assigned to one of two groups by chance and given either: - zolbetuximab with mFOLFOX6; or - a placebo with mFOLFOX6. A placebo is a treatment that looks like the experimental medicine, but contains no medicine. The goal of the study is to find out if zolbetuximab with mFOLFOX6 helps patients to live longer by stopping the cancer from getting worse.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of adjuvant atezolizumab in combination with paclitaxel, followed by atezolizumab, dose-dense doxorubicin or epirubicin (investigator's choice), and cyclophosphamide, compared with paclitaxel followed by dose-dense doxorubicin or epirubicin (investigator's choice) and cyclophosphamide alone in patients with Stage II-III TNBC (Triple Negative Breast Cancer)
This study will compare the efficacy and safety of molecularly-guided therapy versus standard platinum-containing chemotherapy in participants with poor-prognosis cancer of unknown primary site (CUP; non-specific subset) who have achieved disease control after 3 cycles of first-line platinum based induction chemotherapy.
Primary Objective: To demonstrate that efpeglenatide 4 and 6 mg was noninferior to placebo on 3-point major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) participants at high cardiovascular (CV) risk. Secondary Objectives: To demonstrate that efpeglenatide 4 and 6 mg was superior to placebo in T2DM participants with high CV risk on the following parameters: - 3-point MACE. - Expanded CV outcome. - Composite outcome of new or worsening nephropathy. To assess the safety and tolerability of efpeglenatide 4 and 6 mg, both added to standard of care in T2DM participants at high CV risk.
