There are about 3194 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Portugal. 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 is a phase 3 randomized, placebo controlled study to evaluate the safety and anti-tumor activity of Avelumab in combination with standard of care chemoradiation (SoC CRT) versus SoC CRT alone in front-line treatment of patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer.
The purpose of this study is the prevention of Staphylococcus aureus pneumonia in mechanically ventilated subjects heavily colonized with S. aureus. Staphylococcus aureus is a human pathogenic bacterium that causes severe infections, including pneumonia and sepsis. Hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia (HABP) caused by S. aureus, including ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (VABP) in mechanically ventilated subjects, is a significant public health threat despite efforts to optimize antibiotic treatment. ASN100 is an investigational monoclonal antibody product that targets the toxins produced by S. aureus to protect subjects from developing S. aureus pneumonia.
The primary objective of this study is to observe the long-term safety of filgotinib in adults who have completed or met protocol specified efficacy discontinuation criteria in a prior filgotinib treatment study in Crohn's disease (CD).
Most of the local recurrences (LR) found after breast-conserving therapy are within or close to the tumor bed. This pattern of recurrence was confirmed by studies of breast conserving surgery without adjuvant irradiation and by the update of the NSABP B-06 trial. In the EORTC boost trial, however, 29% of all LR were found outside the area of the original tumor. Still, a recent review of Breast Conserving Therapy (BCT) trials showed that the site of local recurrences after BCT was mostly in the tumor bed, with less than 10% of LR elsewhere in the breast. This led to the concept of partial breast irradiation. With accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI), a limited volume of breast tissue is irradiated, allowing for a higher dose per fraction compared to whole breast irradiation (WBI), which is favorable considering the low alpha/beta ratio, and thus higher sensitivity to high dose per fraction.
This clinical study compares the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of therapy with ponesimod vs placebo in subjects with active RMS who are treated with DMF (Tecfidera®).
Primary Objectives: - Part 1: To determine the safety and tolerability of 4, 8, and 15 milligrams of GZ/SAR402671 (venglustat) administered orally for 4 weeks, as compared to placebo in participants with early-stage Parkinson's disease (PD) carrying a glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA) mutation or other pre-specified variants. - Part 2: To determine the efficacy of GZ/SAR402671 administered orally daily, as compared to placebo in participants with early-stage PD carrying a GBA mutation or other pre-specified variants. Secondary Objectives: Part 1: - To assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of oral dosing of GZ/SAR402671 in plasma when administered in early-stage PD participants carrying a GBA mutation. - To assess the exposure of GZ/SAR402671 in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) when administered in early-stage PD participants carrying a GBA mutation. Part 2: - To demonstrate overall safety and tolerability of GZ/SAR402671 administered orally for 52 weeks in early-stage PD participants carrying a GBA mutation as compared to placebo. - To assess the pharmacodynamic response to daily oral dosing of GZ/SAR402671 in plasma and CSF as measured by glucosylceramide (GL-1) when administered in early-stage PD participants carrying a GBA mutation over a 52-week period.
Investigators will perform a multicentric randomized controlled trial comparing the effect of transabdominal and transperineal ultrasound in pregnant women in the second stage of labor, in whom it was decided an operative delivery. Our objective is to evaluate the impact of intrapartal ultrasound measurements, as an auxiliary to clinical evaluation, in the efficacy of an instrumental delivery.
The primary objective of Part 1 of the study is to determine if BIIB093 improves functional outcome at Day 90 as measured by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) when compared with placebo in participants with Large Hemispheric Infarction (LHI). The secondary objectives of Part 1 of the study are to determine if BIIB093 improves overall survival at Day 90 when compared with placebo, if BIIB093 improves functional outcome at Day 90 on the mRS dichotomized 0-4 vs. 5-6 when compared with placebo, if BIIB093 reduces midline shift at 72 hours (or at time of decompressive craniectomy [DC] or comfort measures only [CMO], if earlier) when compared with placebo, and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BIIB093 in participants with LHI. The objectives of Part 2 of the study are to evaluate long-term disability following LHI, to evaluate long-term outcome measures of clinical function, quality of life, and healthcare utilization, and to assess the safety of BIIB093 in subjects with LHI during the follow-up period.
Helicobacter pylori is a common bacterial infection. It can lead to severe stomach problems, including stomach cancer. Researchers want to look at samples of the bacteria. These H. pylori strains will be taken from chronically infected people. They want to identify the genetic and epigenetic differences in H. pylori strains. This could help predict which people who get infected with the bacteria will get stomach cancer. This could lead to the cancer being detected earlier. It could also mean less people get stomach cancer. Objectives: To study genetic variations of H. pylori strains based on samples from chronically infected people. To identify the features of strains that might lead to severe stomach problems or stomach cancer. Eligibility: People ages 30-70 years who need an upper endoscopy or who were recently diagnosed with stomach cancer Design: Participants will be screened by the doctor who does their procedure and a study nurse. Participants who have endoscopy will have ~6 biopsies removed. These are tissue samples. They are about the size of a grain of rice. Participants will allow the study team to access reports from their stomach exam. Participants with stomach cancer will donate some of the tissue that will be removed during their clinical care. They will allow the study team to access reports of their surgery. They will also allow them to access the microscope slides of their stomach.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the study drug known as lanabecestat in participants with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia.
