There are about 359 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Panama. 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 randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of onartuzumab (MetMAb) in combination with 5-fluorouracil, folinic Acid, and oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX6) in participants with metastatic human epidermal growth receptor (HER) 2-negative and MET-positive adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either onartuzumab or placebo in combination with mFOLFOX6. Participants may continue to receive onartuzumab or placebo until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, participant or physician decision to discontinue treatment.
The current study evaluates the immunogenicity and safety in 4-6 years old female subjects (experimental group) receiving Cervarix according to a 2-dose schedule (Month 0, 6), as compared to 4-6 years old female subjects (control group) receiving sequentially Priorix (Month 0) and Infanrix (Month 6) vaccines.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of GSK Biologicals' vaccine GSK1437173A in the prevention of Herpes zoster (HZ) in autologous haematopoietic cell transplant recipients 18 years of age and older. To this end, the study will evaluate vaccine efficacy (VE) of the GSK1437173A vaccine, administered on a 2-dose schedule, compared to placebo in reducing the risk of developing HZ in this population.
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).
This prospective, multi-center, observational study will assess the efficacy and safety of treatment in patients who are treated with a TNF Inhibitor or RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) as the first biologic therapy. Data will be collected for 52 weeks.
Hypertensive crisis (defined as a systolic pressure > 160mmHg or a diastolic pressure > 110mmHg) in patients with a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy is a serious complication with severe and even deadly consequences. The management in this population had been studied, but no consensus has been reached with regards to which treatment is better. Our study will compare two drugs: Hydralazine and Labetalol for the management of hypertensive crisis.
Restless Leg Syndrome is a common but not well recognized central nervous system disorder. It is more prevalent during pregnancy and, if present before pregnancy, can develop an exacerbation of symptoms. In some of the hypothesis trying to explain this syndrome, the physiopathology can also explain hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. So far, no study has been done trying to link both disorders.
Premature rupture of membranes is an important cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality, mainly because of the complications associated with this pathology (oligohydramnios, cord compression or prolapse, infection). When rupture of the membranes occur the risk of cord compression increases but there is little evidence regarding this complication and amniotic fluid volume. The investigator's focus are the perinatal outcomes according to amniotic fluid volume (< 5 or >5).
The purpose of this study was to determine whether the initiation of a vildagliptin plus metformin combination regimen would result in more durable glycemic control than metformin monotherapy in treatment-naïve patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
The presence of proteinuria (>300 mg/d) represents an important factor in the diagnosis and evaluation of the pregnant patient with an hypertensive disorder. The 24 hour collection of urine for proteinuria is the gold standard for the diagnosis of the condition and allows the physician to determine if an hypertensive disorder is related directly or not to the gestation. The problem is the time it takes and the technical difficulties related to the sample collection. An alternative is the quantification of protein and creatinine in a random sample of urine. We seek to evaluate if this method is as affective as the gold standard in the diagnosis of proteinuria (>300 mg/d).
