There are about 2656 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Puerto Rico. 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.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness and safety of insulin lispro protamine suspension (ILPS) as compared to insulin glargine as basal insulin therapy in adults with type 2 diabetes.
This study will evaluate atomoxetine's efficacy in treating attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms and atomoxetine's effect on functional outcomes in young adults. A gatekeeper strategy will be employed for sequentially testing the secondary objectives. This study also has an observational community sample arm in which patients will complete all the efficacy measurements via web-based self reporting.
This study will compare the efficacy and the safety of ABT-894 (1mg, 2mg or 4mg capsules) administered BID to placebo in the treatment of DNP. Another treatment arm will be Duloxetine 60mg administered once daily (QD). Approximately 275 subjects will be enrolled into the study at approximately 50 sites in both the United States and Europe. The study will be divided into the following periods: Screening/Washout (21 days) followed by a Baseline Visit, an 8-week Treatment Period and a 1-week Follow-up Visit.
This is a randomized, open label, multicenter clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety of Velcade (bortezomib) and dexamethasone versus Velcade, thalidomide, and dexamethasone versus Velcade, melphalan, and prednisone in patients with previously untreated multiple myeloma not considered candidates for high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation.
This is a phase III multi-centre study in three periods: the first period is a phosphate binder washout for 4 weeks, the second period is an open-label, flexible dose titration, the third period is a placebo-controlled withdrawal comparing MCI-196 with placebo for 4 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy in maintaining remission of ulcerative colitis between a once daily (QD) Asacol regimen and a divided, twice daily (BID) Asacol dosing regimen.
The use of acetylsalicylic acid in the primary prevention of cardiovascular events has been extensively studied but to a lesser extent in patients with moderate levels of cardiovascular risk. The current study is designed to prove the efficacy and tolerability of 100 mg enteric-coated Aspirin versus placebo in the prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events, which include fatal and nonfatal myocardial infarction, fatal and nonfatal stroke and CV death, in a population with no history of known CVD who are at moderate risk of major CHD events (approximately 10-20% 10 year CHD risk). This corresponds to a patient population mean 10-year CVD risk of approximately 30%. Subjects are treated in a standard care setting and may receive treatment for the underlying risk factors as defined by the treating physician. Outcome events will be adjudicated by an Endpoint Adjudication Committee and the study will be monitored by an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board.
1) To evaluate the effectiveness of AST-120 (spherical carbon adsorbent) added to standard-of-care therapy in moderate to severe Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), on time to first occurrence of any event of the triple composite outcome of initiation of dialysis, kidney transplant or doubling of serum creatinine (sCr) when compared with placebo; 2) To evaluate the safety and tolerability of long-term AST-120 therapy in patients with CKD; 3) To evaluate the effects of AST-120 versus placebo, on other measures of renal function and quality of life.

This is a multicenter study designed to compare the effect of exenatide plus a lifestyle modification plan versus placebo plus a lifestyle modification plan on weight loss in non-diabetic, obese subjects.
