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.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of rimegepant for migraine prophylaxis in adults with a history of inadequate response to oral preventive medications
The main purpose of this study is to measure how well imlunestrant works compared to standard hormone therapy in participants with early breast cancer that is estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and human epidermal receptor 2 negative (HER2-). Participants must have already taken endocrine therapy for two to five years and must have a higher-than-average risk for their cancer to return. Study participation could last up to 10 years.
Urolithiasis (UL) is the presence of kidney stones in different compartments such as ureters, bladder and/or urethra. Based on its incidence and prevalence it is considered a public health problem worldwide. In Mexico, especially in Yucatan state, is considered an endemic area of UL with a prevalence of 5.5%. There are several risk factors associated with the development of UL, among which are genetics, age, sex, excess weight, diet, and gut microbiota. In the diet there is promoters and inhibitors of stone formation, such as oxalates and citrates respectively. The gut microbiota is the set of microorganisms that inhabit the gastrointestinal tract, which have been related to the regulation of metabolic processes such as production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), vitamin K synthesis, and stimulation of the immune response. However, alterations in the composition of the microbiota have been associated with the development of various pathologies including UL. Recent studies have shown that the intestinal microbiota of people with kidney stones have a lower diversity and a different bacterial composition compared with healthy people, suggesting that interactions in the gut-renal axis could have a direct effect on the development of UL. Furthermore, these modifications could modulate oxalate and citrate transporters. Dietary modifications may decrease the risk of UL formation through increased consumption of citrate-rich foods (>40 mEq per day) and decreased consumption of oxalate-rich foods (< 40mg per day). It is known that dietary modifications can modulate the gut microbiota, however there is no evidence about the effect of a dietary intervention with oxalate and citrate control on the modulation of the microbiota in patients with UL. Thus, it is important to search for strategies to reduce UL, as well as the complications associated with them like chronic kidney disease. The main of the study is evaluate the effect of a dietary intervention with oxalate and citrate control on the composition and diversity of the intestinal microbiota of adults with UL.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of rimegepant in a population of adults that are unsuitable for triptan medications due to a previous intolerance, lack of efficacy, or contraindication (including a history of clinically-relevant cardiovascular disease).
This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ABX464 given at 25 or 50 mg QD in inducing clinical remission in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who have inadequate response, no response, a loss of response, or an intolerance to either conventional therapies [corticosteroids, immunosuppressant (i.e. azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate)] and/or advanced therapies [biologics (TNF inhibitors, anti-integrins, anti-IL-23), and/or S1P receptor modulators, and/or JAK inhibitors].
Paraprosthetic cardiac valve leaks are a progressive complication after after surgical or percutaneous heart valve replacement. These leaks can lead to heart failure and/or life-threatening hemolysis. Percutaneous closure of para-prosthetic leaks has been developed as an alternative to surgery in high-risk patients. These procedures remain technically challenging with a significant risk of failure and complications, but this risk is improved since the development of dedicated prostheses and the increased experience of the operators. The data in the literature concerning percutaneous leak closure remain limited and disparate and mostly retrospective.The impact of the procedures on the quality of life of patients is not known. Beyond the technical aspects and the follow-up of major cardiovascular events, investigators also wonder what is the impact of these procedures on the quality of life of patients. Investigators hypothesize that even a partial reduction in paraprosthetic leakage may be associated with an improvement in quality of life through reduction of transfusion needs and/or reduction of dyspnea. A prospective study is warranted to assess the technical and clinical and clinical results of these procedures, together with the evaluation of the the possible benefit on the quality of life of the patients.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the effect of zimberelimab (ZIM) and domvanalimab (DOM) in combination with chemotherapy relative to pembrolizumab (PEMBRO) in combination with chemotherapy on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with untreated metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with no actionable genomic alteration.
This is a Phase 3, open-label, randomized, clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of gedatolisib plus fulvestrant with or without palbociclib for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer following progression on or after CDK4/6 and aromatase inhibitor therapy.
ATRA is the standard of care for all patients with APL. The use of lower doses of ATRA has been shown since the 1990s to achieve therapeutic efficacy with doses of 25mg/m2/day. ATO demonstrated considerable effectiveness in this disease. More recently, an attenuated regimen has been proven to be effective. In this study we intent to demonstrate the effectiveness of combined therapy of low-dose ATRA plus attenuated dose ATO.
Hodgkin's Lymphoma (HL) is a neoplasm that affects the lymph nodes and the lymphatic system. In Mexico, HL is the seventh most incident cancer and the ninth with the highest mortality. It is characterized by the presence of Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells derived from B cells of the germinal center. They harbor mutations that activate the NF-κB pathway, favoring cell survival and their reprogramming. Currently, the available therapeutic options are chemotherapy and radiotherapy, achieving cure rates of 75% in patients in advanced stages, in which 70% of these are found at the time of diagnosis. The investigators proposed the use of pentoxifylline (PTX) as a therapeutic option to enhance the antitumor effect generated by the treatment since it can increase the efficacy of apoptosis, in vitro and in vivo, induced by doxorubicin, cisplatin, and adriamycin in human leukemic and cervical cancer cells, through inhibition of NF-κB by preventing phosphorylation of serine 32 of the inhibitor κB; it also decreases the expression of Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL, induces the releasement of cytochrome c and caspases 3, 9, and cleavage of caspase 8. The investigators evaluated the effects of PTX during the steroid window phase at induction to remission in pediatric patients with LLA of a recent diagnosis, where it was shown that the combined treatment of prednisone (PRD) with PTX achieves greater percentages of apoptosis compared to individual treatment. In addition, the effect of PTX on the expression of genes associated with apoptosis was evaluated; where it was shown that it activates the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of apoptosis. Fortilin is a protein whose serum levels increase 2.4 times more after treatment with chemotherapy or radiotherapy in patients with malignancies, so it is considered a specific and sensitive biomarker of early apoptosis in vivo. The present protocol will evaluate the enhancing effect of PTX on tumor apoptosis in combination with chemotherapeutical agents in pediatric and AYA patients with HL. Apoptosis will be measured in vivo by quantifying serum levels of fortilin and cytochrome c in participants before and after treatment by ELISA; as well as an evaluation of the clinical response based on the results of the PET-Scan, overall and event-free survival according to the Kaplan-Meier curves, and the adverse effects associated with the use of PTX according to the common terminology criteria for adverse events and causality algorithms.
