There are about 1249 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Philippines. 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 is a prospective observational cohort study. The study will be conducted in routine clinical practice settings. It is planned to enroll 870 patients with endometriosis for whom a decision has been made by the physician to treat with dienogest according to local health authority approved label. It is the aim of this observational cohort study to further characterize the effectiveness of dienogest in improving quality of life and long-term safety in routine clinical practice setting. Endometriosis is chronic and progressive disease and there is unmet need for long-term treatment. Visanne® with proven efficacy and safety, can be good option for long-term treatment, however, experience with Visanne® beyond 15 month is limited. And long-term up to 24 months data on effectiveness and safety of Visanne would support the long-term treatment strategy for Endometriosis management in the clinical practice.
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate efficacy including effect on inhibition of progression of structural damage, safety and tolerability up to 2 years with primary focus at Week 16 (week 24 for structural damage), to support the use of secukinumab pre-filled syringe (PFS) by subcutaneous (s.c.) self-administration with or without loading regimen in subjects with active Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) despite current or previous NSAID, DMARD therapy and/or previous anti-TNFα therapy. Long term efficacy up to 2 years was based on signs and symptoms of joint/bone structure preservation (X-ray) and improvement in physical function measured by Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI©), as well as skin and nail improvement for psoriasis signs.
Olaparib administered as monotherapy in the maintenance setting improves progression free survival compared to placebo in patients whose tumours carry loss of function (deleterious or suspected deleterious) somatic BRCA mutations or loss of function (deleterious or suspected deleterious) mutation in non-BRCA Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) -associated genes who have a complete or partial response to platinum-based chemotherapy.
Novartis has set up this global Multiple Patient Program (MPP) treatment plan to provide access to life-saving treatment with LCZ696 for patients that were not previously exposed to LCZ696 but have no other option to receive LCZ696 in their country prior to market authorization OR commercial availability, based on local regulatory and legal requirements.
This trial aims to determine whether the early bactericidal activity of rifampicin given with faropenem or cefadroxil (each given with amoxicillin/clavulanic acid) is greater than the activity of rifampicin alone in patients with pulmonary TB. The trial will also investigate potential new biomarkers of sterilising activity.
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy given before surgery of soft tissue sarcoma decreases the size of the tumor mass and the presence of malignant cells in its peripheral region. NBTXR3 and radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells and increase the tumor shrinkage rendering surgery more feasible or easier and achieve better local control of the tumor. PURPOSE: This phase II/III is a prospective randomized, multi-center, open-label and active controlled two arms study in patients with locally advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS) of the extremity and trunk wall. Patients will be randomized to receive either NBTXR3 as intratumor injection, activated by external beam radiation therapy or external beam radiation therapy alone, as preoperative treatment. Once the radiotherapy treatment is completed, tumor surgery will be performed in all patients.
Globally, cervical cancer is the second most common cancer for women and kills approximately 250,000 women every year, with the annual number of deaths expected to increase to 410,000 by 2030. The majority (88%) of these deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where screening and prevention services are limited. Prevention of cervical cancer by identification and treatment of cervical cancer precursors is key, since treatment resources for invasive disease are scarce. A cervical cancer screening program cannot be effective unless it is linked with a proven intervention to prevent the development of cervical cancer. The World Health Organization (WHO) recently released the WHO guidelines for screening and treatment of precancerous lesions for cervical cancer prevention, which recommends a screen-and-treat approach for cervical cancer prevention, with cryotherapy being the first choice of treatment for women who have a positive screen. However, these programs are still slow to be implemented in part due to the current high cost and low efficiency of cryotherapy equipment that is often prone to breaking. Jhpiego, an affiliate of Johns Hopkins University, has developed a new cryotherapy device, CryoPop, that is one tenth the cost of current equipment while also ten times more efficient. Once proven safe, feasible and effective, CryoPop could save tens of thousands of lives in low- and middle-income countries each year by preventing cervical cancer.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether copanlisib in combination with rituximab is superior to placebo in combination with rituximab in prolonging progression free survival (PFS) in patients with relapsed iNHL who have received one or more lines of treatment, including rituximab and who either had a treatment-free interval of ≥ 12 months after completion of the last rituximab-containing treatment, or who are unwilling to receive chemotherapy/for whom chemotherapy is contraindicated on reason of age, comorbidities, and/or residual toxicity.
This is a multinational, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab-Pfizer plus paclitaxel and carboplatin versus bevacizumab-EU plus paclitaxel and carboplatin in first-line treatment for patients with advanced (unresectable, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic) non-squamous NSCLC.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (explores what the body does to the drug), and anti-mycobacterial activity of bedaquiline (TMC207) in children and adolescents (0 months to less than [<] 18 years of age) diagnosed with confirmed or probable pulmonary multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), in combination With a Background Regimen (BR) of MDR-TB Medications.
