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 evaluates the efficacy of melatonin 5mg in the prevention of Delirium in the older adults in emergency department. Half of the participants will receive melatonin 5mg and the other half will use a starch-based placebo.
This trial studies the genetic and behavioral factors that may contribute to the development of specific cancers and how these factors may affect the outcome of the disease in patients with a history of cancer and their relatives.
Post-authorisation, multicentric, observational, retrospective and prospective study to assess quality of care of sarcoma patients in expert and non-expert centers by analysing correlation of quality items and outcomes such as relapse free survival, overall survival, percentage of amputation, etc. Expert pathology peer review will be performed to detect differences between expert and non-expert centers as well as differences in treatment and patient prognosis. Tumor samples of 4 types of sarcoma would also be included in translational research to detect biomarkers and produce preclinical models.
This is a Phase 2/3 study that comprises 5 substudies designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of oral etrasimod as therapy in adult participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD) who are refractory or intolerant to at least 1 of the current therapies for CD (ie, corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, or biologics). The overall duration of this study is up to 282 weeks, inclusive of the Screening Period, Treatment Period of up to 274 weeks (Induction, Extension or Maintenance, and Long-term Extension Periods), and the 4-Week Follow-Up Period for safety assessment.
This is an open-label, non-comparator, global, multi-center, long-term safety study for evaluating safety and tolerability of linerixibat in participants with cholestatic pruritus in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) who participated in a prior clinical trial with linerixibat (BAT117123 [NCT01899703], 201000 GLIMMER [NCT02966834] (group 1) or 212620 GLISTEN [NCT00210418]) (group 2). All participants will receive open-label linerixibat for the duration of the study. The study duration is expected to last until the study's end or until linerixibat can be lawfully made available to participants. However, the total duration of study participation will vary by participant depending upon the time of entry relative to study end in their respective country.
Background: Infections associated with mechanical ventilation are associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality, which results not only in an increase in hospitalization days and care costs, but also in an increase in DALYS (years of life disability adjustment) in the population. Critically ill patients have a high risk of infection as a result of underlying immunodeficiency, comorbidity and placement of invasive devices (such as endotracheal tubes and intravascular devices). Infections in these patients constitute a challenge for hospital authorities, as they are considered a social and economic problem that influences the quality of care, in a system where health services are increasingly affected by high patient care costs and the reduction of public spending. The decrease in the number of bacteria in the oral cavity reduces the presence of microorganisms available for translocation and colonization of the lower respiratory tract; Therefore, performing oral care intervention is considered an economically attractive method to reduce the risk of developing infections associated with endotracheal intubation. In our environment, oral cleaning is performed as part of the nursing care package granted to all patients of the ICU, however, there is no standardized method among nursing staff that guarantees the desired prevention. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of mouth-rinse with 0.12% chlorhexidine to prevent infections associated with mechanical ventilation in patients in the intensive care unit in a third level hospital in Mérida, Yucatán. Hypothesis: Mouth-rinse with 0.12% chlorhexidine twice daily more effective and safe than mouthwash with bicarbonated isotonic solution twice daily to prevent infections associated with mechanical ventilation in patients in the intensive care unit of a hospital third level. Methodology: Double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial with active substance for the evaluation of the non-inferiority of the efficacy and safety of mouthwash with 0.12% chlorhexidine twice daily compared to isotonic bicarbonated solution twice daily for the prevention of any infection associated with mechanical ventilation in patients requiring endotracheal intubation in the intensive care unit of a third level hospital.
This phase III trial studies magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) surveillance and prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) to see how well they work compared to MRI surveillance alone in treating patients with small cell lung cancer. MRI scans are used to monitor the possible spread of the cancer with an MRI machine over time. PCI is radiation therapy that is delivered to the brain in hopes of preventing spread of cancer into the brain. The use of brain MRI alone may reduce side effects of receiving PCI and prolong patients' lifespan. Monitoring with MRI scans alone (delaying radiation until the actual spread of the cancer) may be at least as good as the combination of PCI with MRI scans.
Gastrointestinal disorders represents 20-50% of referrals to the gastroenterologist; being the most affected womens, youths and older adults. Among these alterations are the Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC), which affects the gut causing impaired motility. The pharmacological and nutritional treatment are modified according to the symptomatology and activity of each patients. Currently the implementation of low FODMAP diets for 6 to 8 weeks in patients whith IBS improves symptoms such as bloating, flatulence and abdominal pain. However due to the number of restricted foods a long term attachment could limited the nutritional content, consequently affecting the nutritional status, gut microbiota an quality of life. A low FODMAP diet are useful to improve gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with UC and causes changes in nutritional status.
This is a first-in-human, open-label, multicenter, Phase I multiple-ascending dose (MAD) study of RO7247669, an anti PD-1 (programmed death-1) and LAG-3 (Lymphocyte-activation gene 3) bispecific antibody, for participants with advanced and/or metastatic solid tumors. This study aims to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or define the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) based on the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK) and/or pharmacodynamic (PD) profile of RO7247669, and to evaluate preliminary anti-tumor activity in participants with solid tumors. An expansion part of the study is planned to enroll tumor-specific cohorts to evaluate anti-tumor activity of the MTD and/or RP2D of RO7247669 and to confirm safety and tolerability in participants with selected tumor types.
This is a study designed to measure, characterize and describe changes on pulse-oxymetry values produced as a result of deep breaths in patients with stable chronic hypoxemic respiratory failure.
