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.
Efficacy and Safety study of Lurasidone in pediatric patients.
This study is designed to demonstrate the non-inferior antiviral activity of DTG/ABC/3TC fixed dose combination (FDC) once daily (OD) compared to atazanavir plus ritonavir (ATV+RTV) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine fixed dose combination (TDF/FTC FDC) OD in HIV-1 infected, ART-naïve women over 48 weeks. This study will also characterize the safety and tolerability of DTG/ABC/3TC FDC compared to ATV+RTV+TDF/FTC FDC. Sufficient number of subjects will be screened in order to ensure a total of approximately 474 subjects will be randomized (237 in each study arm)
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sofosbuvir (SOF) + velpatasvir (VEL; GS-5816) with or without ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naive adults with chronic genotype (GT) 1 or 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and North America. The aim of the trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of switching from sitagliptin to liraglutide in subjects with type 2 diabetes not achieving adequate glycaemic control on sitagliptin and metformin.
This study was done to look at a method of hormonal birth control, called the NuvaRing, and specific anti-HIV medications, called antiretrovirals (ARVs). Some studies of women who use a hormonal birth control method (specifically oral pills, patches, and injections) and take ARVs have shown that ARVs interact with the hormones released by the birth control medication. These interactions may cause the birth control to be less effective at preventing pregnancy. There is also concern that hormonal birth control can increase HIV spreading to others, but more studies are needed to determine if this is true. The investigators did not know whether the NuvaRing and ARVs interact when they are used together, so this study looked to see if certain ARVs (efavirenz and atazanavir/ritonavir) interact with the two hormones released by NuvaRing. This will help us to determine if NuvaRing is safe and effective for women with HIV infection who are taking ARVs. The study also included HIV-infected women who were not on ARVs but used the NuvaRing to show us what the hormone levels are like in a similar group of women not on ARVs. Vaginal rings are also currently being studied to deliver anti-HIV medications that may prevent HIV acquisition, and to provide birth control over a longer period of time (more than 1 month). Since vaginal rings will become more commonly used to administer medications, the investigators wanted to better understand the potential for drug interactions with drugs given vaginally. This study will also help us understand the potential for drug interactions between ARVs given orally, and other drugs given through vaginal rings, like the NuvaRing. Additionally, this study will help us understand how hormones released from a vaginal ring affect the amount of HIV virus in the genital tract, the bacterial make-up (microbiome) of the female genital tract, and the immune system within the genital tract, all of which may affect the chances of spreading HIV.
This study is designed to define the amount and duration of cholesterol lowering and to assess the safety and tolerability of different dose regimens of LY3015014 in participants with high cholesterol. The study will also investigate how the body processes the drug and how the drug affects the body. Participants will remain on a stable diet and will continue taking cholesterol-lowering medications (statins with or without ezetimibe). After signing the informed consent document, the participant will complete a screening/run-in period that will last at most 8 weeks. Then, the treatment period will last approximately 16 weeks. After the treatment period, the participants will complete a follow-up period lasting approximately 8 weeks for a total study duration ranging from approximately 25 to 32 weeks.
This trial is conducted in Europe and North and South America. The aim of the trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of semaglutide once-weekly versus exenatide ER (extended release) 2.0 mg once-weekly as add-on to 1-2 oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the long-term safety and any side effects of baricitinib in participants who have completed a previous baricitinib rheumatoid arthritis study. The study provides 7 years of additional treatment with baricitinib.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of LCZ696 in comparison to olmesartan in essential hypertensive patients not adequately responsive to olmesartan
Current evidence suggests that schizophrenia as a serious and complex psychiatric disorder, continues to challenge mental health professionals in their search for better treatment options in the community. In the present study, the investigators hypothesized that in patients diagnosed as schizophrenia, adjunct treatment with Curry extract from the plant labeled by botanists as Curcuma Longata, formulated as Super-Curcumin@ , would bring about :1)positive behavioral changes in areas of socialization, emotional well-being, verbal communication and motivation; 2)improvement in measures of memory. Throughout the study, the proprietary product, Super-Curcumin@ consisting of Curcumin C-3 complex combined with the black pepper extract Bioperine to boost the effects of Curcumin. The study was developed to examine whether Curcumin's interaction with the two major signal pathways in the brain regulating brain-behavior: the epigenetic signal (histone modification) and the anti-inflammatory signal (inducible nitric oxide synthetase)in preclinical models is translated to beneficial effects in the treatment of schizophrenia.
