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.
This study will recruit men and transgender women with acute or recent HIV infection. It wil look at how HIV medicines (ART) when given very early after HIV infection affect the amount of HIV in the blood, semen and rectal secretions. In addition, Investigators will be using modeling studies to look at whether or not this kind of HIV treatment can decrease the risk that a man will infect a person he has sex with and to find out how failure to take medications will impact spreading the virus to other people. In this study, one group will be randomized (like a coin toss) to start ART immediately (just at the time of the enrollment visit) and the other group will wait until week 24 of the study to start ART. Both groups will be followed for a total of 48 weeks and will continue to receive ART from local sources after the study is over.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effects of Ceftazidime-Avibactam compared to Meropenem for treating hospitalized adults with nosocomial pneumonia including ventilator-associated pneumonia
Primary objective: - To evaluate the effect of lixisenatide versus placebo over a period of 24 weeks on glycemic control, as evaluated by HbA1c reduction, in older type 2 diabetes patients (T2DM) who are inadequately controlled with their current anti-diabetic treatment regimen. Main secondary objective: - To assess the safety and tolerability of lixisenatide compared to placebo in older T2DM patients (including occurrence of documented (Plasma Glucose PG < 60 mg/dL) symptomatic hypoglycemia and gastrointestinal side effects). Other secondary objectives: - To assess the effect of lixisenatide compared to placebo after 24-week treatment on: - Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) - During liquid standardized breakfast meal challenge test : 2 hour- PPG and Plasma Glucose Excursion - 7-point Self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) profile - Body weight - Change in total daily dose of basal insulin (if taken) - Percentage of patients requiring rescue therapy - Safety and tolerability - To assess lixisenatide pharmacokinetic profile - To assess anti-lixisenatide antibody development.
The purpose of this study is to allow continued use of pasireotide in patients who are on pasireotide treatment in a Novartis-sponsored study and are benefiting from the treatment as judged by the investigator.
This Phase 2 protocol is designed to compare two dose levels of laninamivir octanoate versus placebo. The objectives are to obtain safety and efficacy in adults aged 18 to 64 years who present to clinic with symptomatic presumptive influenza A or B infection.
This was a three-arm, randomized, open label, multi-center phase II study investigating the combination of everolimus (10mg daily) with exemestane (25mg daily) versus everolimus (10mg daily) versus capecitabine (1250mg/m2 twice daily for 14 days, 3-week cycle) in patients with estrogen-receptor positive, HER2 negative, advanced breast cancer after recurrence or progression on letrozole or anastrozole.
This is an adaptive, dose ranging, Phase II study to investigate the relationship between repeat doses of GSK2586184 and the pharmacodynamic effect and clinical efficacy in patients with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This study will also investigate the safety and tolerability of repeat doses of GSK2586184. During the study, up to 3 Interim Analyses will be conducted. These are to monitor the pharmacodynamic effect and safety following 2 weeks of therapy (Interim Analysis 1); and the clinical efficacy and safety of GSK2586184 following 12 weeks of therapy (Interim Analyses 2 and 3). Subjects who meet the entry criteria (approximately 150 to 250) will be randomized in a 1:1:1:1:1 ratio to receive GSK2586184 at doses of 50 milligram (mg) twice daily (b.i.d), 100 mg b.i.d, 200 mg b.i.d, 400 mg b.i.d or Placebo b.i.d. GSK2586184 tablets available in 50 and 200 mg dose strength will be administered orally up to 12 weeks. Subjects who complete the study will participate in the study for approximately 21 weeks.
This double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, multicenter, international, parallel arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab, fluoropyrimidine and cisplatin as first-line treatment in participants with HER2-positive metastatic gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) or gastric cancer (GC). Participants will be randomized to receive pertuzumab 840 milligrams (mg) or placebo intravenously every 3 weeks (q3w) in combination with trastuzumab (initial dose of 8 milligrams per kilogram [mg/kg] intravenously [IV] followed by 6 mg/kg IV q3w) and cisplatin and fluoropyrimidine (capecitabine or 5-fluorouracil) for the first 6 treatment cycles. Participants will continue to receive pertuzumab or placebo and trastuzumab until disease progression occurrence of unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal from the study for another reason.
This 2-arm, randomized, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab emtansine versus trastuzumab as adjuvant therapy in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer who have residual tumor present in the breast or axillary lymph nodes following preoperative therapy. Eligible patients will be randomized to receive either trastuzumab emtansine 3.6 mg/kg or trastuzumab 6 mg/kg intravenously every 3 weeks for 14 cycles. Radiotherapy and/or hormone therapy will be given in addition if indicated.
The purpose of this study is to determine if study drug (BMS-986020) dose of 600 mg once daily or 600 mg twice daily for 26 weeks compared with placebo will reduce the decline in forced vital capacity (FVC) and will be well tolerated in subjects with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
