There are about 1254 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Peru. 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.
Over 80% of HIV-1 infected persons are also seropositive for HSV-2. Increasingly, clinical and epidemiologic evidence show the role of HSV in increasing HIV infectiousness. The evidence suggests that that HSV is an important cofactor in HIV transmission. The trial's purpose is to assess the reduction in HIV shedding associated with valacyclovir for suppression of HSV-2 reactivation. This proof-of-concept, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled crossover trial of 20 HIV/HSV-2 co-infected men, assessed the effects of daily valacyclovir on HIV-1 levels in the plasma and rectal mucosa secretions.
This randomized phase II trial studies different combinations of bevacizumab, temsirolimus, and sorafenib tosylate to see how well they work compared with bevacizumab alone in treating patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Bevacizumab and sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Temsirolimus and sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving different combinations of bevacizumab, sorafenib tosylate, and temsirolimus may be more effective than bevacizumab alone in treating metastatic kidney cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pioglitazone-azilsartan, once daily (QD), in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus with poor glycemic control.
This study was designed to evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of an oral dual tyrosine kinase inhibitor, lapatinib, versus placebo in women with early-stage ErbB2-overexpressing breast cancer who have completed their primary neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy and have no clinical or radiographic evidence of disease.
To compare efficacy and safety of Sunitinib and Capecitabine in subjects with advanced breast cancer who failed both a taxane and an anthracycline chemotherapy regimen or failed with a taxane and for whom further anthracycline therapy is not indicated
The purpose of this study is to determine whether acyclovir is effective in suppressing HIV viral load in women infected with both HIV-1 and herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) who are starting HIV treatment for the first time.
This is a study comparing the activity of lapatinib versus placebo followed by chemoradiation. This study is designed to explore the effects of lapatinib monotherapy on apoptosis/necrosis, in pre-treatment and post-treatment tumour tissue samples in subjects with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck.
This study will determine whether the investigational drug dasatinib is effective in treatment of women with progressive advanced ER+/PR+ or Her2/neu+ breast cancer
The rationale for this Phase III study is to evaluate the 6 month safety and efficacy of eltrombopag in the treatment of previously treated subjects with chronic ITP. The starting dose of eltrombopag, 50 mg, once daily was selected based upon the observed efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics in a dose-finding Study (TRA100773). This Phase III study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase III study, to evaluate efficacy, safety and tolerability of eltrombopag, initially administered as 50 mg oral tablets once daily for six months in adult subjects with previously treated chronic ITP. Subjects will be randomized 2:1, eltrombopag to placebo, and will be stratified based upon splenectomy status, use of ITP medication at baseline and baseline platelet count less than or equal to 15,000/µL. Subjects will receive study medication for 6 months, during which the dose of study medication may be adjusted based upon individual platelet counts. In addition, subjects may taper off concomitant ITP medications and may receive any rescue treatments as dictated by local standard of care. After discontinuation of study medication, subjects will complete follow-up visits at weeks 1, 2, 4 and months 3 and 6.
RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as bone mineral density testing and x-ray, help measure bone loss in women receiving treatment for breast cancer. The test results may help doctors plan better treatment. PURPOSE: This phase III trial is studying bone density and bone loss in postmenopausal women with breast cancer receiving treatment in clinical trial IBCSG-1-98.
