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.
Background Obesity and overweight are well known risk factors for breast cancer and also are associated with higher recurrence and mortality rates. Main goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of metformin plus chemotherapy in terms of pathologic complete response in comparison with placebo plus the same chemotherapy regimen Design: Randomized, double blind, clinical trial. This study will be performed at National Cancer Institute of Mexico City, at breast cancer unit. Patients with ER+ or PR+, HER2 negative, breast cancer are candidates to participate. After completion of chemotherapy all patients will have a breast surgery to assess pathologic response. Complete pathologic response is defined as the abscence of malignant cells in breast tissue and lymph nodes. The presence of DCIS is considered as pCR
This multicenter, two-cohort, non-randomized, open-label study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of assisted and self-administered SC Herceptin as adjuvant therapy in participants with early HER2-positive breast cancer following tumor excision. Participants will receive Herceptin 600 milligrams (mg) SC every 3 weeks for 18 cycles, either by an assisted administration using a conventional syringe and needle/vial formulation (Cohort A) or with assisted and self-administration using a single-use injection device (SID) in selected participants (Cohort B).
Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Oral Azacitidine plus Best Supportive care versus Placebo and Best Supportive care in subjects with red blood cell (RBC) transfusion-dependent anemia and thrombocytopenia due to International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) lower risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).
Chemoradiation has been the standard treatment for advanced cervical cancer for a decade, but one third of women still die from a failure to control systemic disease. In a recent multicentre phase II trial of 46 women the investigators found that, 68% of women had tumours that responded to weekly induction chemotherapy prior to chemoradiation. The induction chemotherapy had acceptable toxicity and did not compromise the standard chemoradiation treatment. In addition, the overall survival and progression free survival at 3 years was 66% (95% CI 4779). These results, together with acceptable toxicity, provide justification for evaluating induction chemotherapy prior to chemoradiation in a randomised phase III trial. The investigators aim to investigate in a randomised trial whether additional induction chemotherapy given on a weekly schedule immediately before standard chemoradiation leads to an improvement in overall survival. The investigators plan to recruit 770 women with locally advanced cervical cancer who are eligible for standard chemoradiation, they will be randomised to weekly carboplatin and paclitaxel chemotherapy for 6 weeks followed by chemoradiation or to chemoradiation alone. The trial will recruit for 4 years with 5 years of follow up period.
Solifenacin succinate as a tablet formulation is already on the market for the treatment of symptoms of overactive bladder in adults. For the use in children and adolescent patients a new formulation of solifenacin has been developed. This study investigated the effect and safety of solifenacin succinate liquid suspension compared to a non-active drug (placebo) over a 12-week period. The 2 weeks prior to the double blind period was a single-blind placebo run-in period in combination with behavioral urotherapy (Non-interventional diary assisted urotherapy consisting of overactive bladder (OAB) information, awareness, instruction, life-style advice and documentation of voiding habits and symptoms for OAB), followed by a 12 week daily treatment period. The study also investigated how well solifenacin succinate suspension is taken-up by the body and how long it stays in the body during this time.
The purpose of this study was to investigate a medicine for the treatment of symptoms and complications of neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) in children and adolescents.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ASP015K in moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) subjects
This is a Phase IIb, multi-centre, stratified, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group, placebo and active controlled study in children aged 5-11 years with persistent uncontrolled asthma. Subjects meeting all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria at the screening visit (Visit 1) will enter a four week run-in period during which time they will continue their current medications. Visit 2 will occur two weeks into the run-in period to allow a review of compliance with daily diary and run-in medication. At Visit 3 (end of run-in/randomization visit), subjects meeting the eligibility criteria who remain uncontrolled despite baseline therapy will be stratified based on pre screening inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) use. Once stratified, subjects will be randomised to the treatment phase of the study where they will receive one of five treatments for 12 weeks. Approx 1200 subjects ages 5 to 11 will be screened to achieve 575 randomized for a total of 115 randomized/evaluable subjects per treatment arm. Subjects will attend on-treatment visits at 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks (Visits 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively). A follow-up contact will be performed one week after completing study medication. All subjects must attempt spirometry measurements at Visits 1 and 3. For all subjects, a timed 24-hour urine collection for urinary cortisol and creatinine excretion will be performed prior to randomization at Visit 2 and within 7 days prior to Visit 7. All subjects must perform PEF daily between visits 1 and 7. The primary endpoint will be change from baseline in pre-dose (i.e. dosing trough) PM PEF from patient hand held electronic daily diary at Endpoint (Endpoint is defined as the mean over the last 7 days of treatment). Safety assessments include adverse events, oropharyngeal examinations, clinical chemistry, urinary cortisol, and vital signs.
Nursemaid elbow or pulled elbow is a condition commonly seen in the emergency department. It is the sudden pull of the radial head (a bone in the elbow) in toddlers. Usually occur when a parent tries to pull the child by the arm and a "clic" or "clunk" is felt with immediate pain and unwilling to move the arm. It is not a dangerous condition although it is distressing for kids and their parents/caretakers.
This study is an international, multi-center, open-label study designed to provide oral treprostinil (UT-15C) to eligible subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension who have completed the TDE-PH-310 study. The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety of UT-15C and to assess the effects of long-term treatment with UT-15C on exercise capacity.
