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.
Primary Objective: - To demonstrate the superior efficacy (composite of all-cause death + Myocardial Infarction (MI)) of Otamixaban to Unfractionated Heparin (UFH) + Eptifibatide Secondary Objectives: - To demonstrate the superior efficacy (composite of all-cause death + MI + any stroke) of Otamixaban as compared to UFH + Eptifibatide - To document the effect of Otamixaban on rehospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization due to a new episode of myocardial ischemia/myocardial infarction as compared to UFH + eptifibatide - To document the effect on mortality (all cause death) of Otamixaban as compared to UFH + eptifibatide - To document the safety of Otamixaban as compared to UFH + eptifibatide - To document the effect of Otamixaban on thrombotic procedural complications during the index Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) as compared to UFH + eptifibatide
This clinical research study will examine whether an oral contraceptive pill taken with a monthly hormone-free interval of 4 days reduces hormone withdrawal associated symptoms compared to an oral contraceptive pill taken with a monthly hormone-free interval of 7 days after 4 cycles of treatment.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of once daily (QD) versus twice daily (BID) dosing of eliglustat tartrate (Genz-112638) in patients with Gaucher disease type 1 who have demonstrated clinical stability on BID dosing of eliglustat tartrate (Genz-112638). The secondary objective is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of Genz-99067 when eliglustat tartrate (Genz-112638) is administered QD and BID in patients with Gaucher disease type 1 who have demonstrated clinical stability on BID dosing of eliglustat tartrate (Genz-112638).
The CoreValve Advance study is intended to evaluate the clinical utility of the Medtronic CoreValve System in a "Real-World" patient population.
The triple therapy darunavir/r + tenofovir/emtricitabine is likely to become a relevant first-line treatment option in the years to come. The dual combination of boosted darunavir + raltegravir is an innovative treatment option that combines two potent new antiretroviral drugs, one of which belongs to a new drug class (integrase inhibitor). The expected efficacy profile of this combination is promising. Moreover, this combination might have a better tolerance profile and has the advantage of sparing the NRTI class. In the context of tenofovir/emtricitabine currently being a reference backbone in first-line antiretroviral regimens, we hypothesise that, in combination with darunavir/r, raltegravir may be an alternative option if its efficacy is non-inferior to tenofovir/emtricitabine.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of different doses of sotrastaurin when combined with tacrolimus for the prevention of acute rejection after de novo renal transplantation.
This study is to provide reliable information on the management of bipolar disorders in real every day, clinical practice, to determine the clinical outcomes of such management and use of resources in relation to the disease, and to establish the factors associated with different management patterns and clinical outcomes.
Primary Objectives: Part A (dose ranging study): To demonstrate that sarilumab (SAR153191/REGN88) on top of MTX was effective on reduction of signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis at 12 weeks. Part B (pivotal study): To demonstrate that sarilumab added to MTX was effective in: - reduction of signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis at 24 weeks - inhibition of progression of structural damage at 52 weeks - improvement in physical function at 16 weeks Secondary Objectives: Part B: To demonstrate that sarilumab added to MTX was effective in induction of a major clinical response at 52 weeks To assess the safety of sarilumab added to MTX To document the pharmacokinetic profile of sarilumab added to MTX in participants with active rheumatoid arthritis who were inadequate responders to MTX therapy.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of nilotinib in adult patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome positive/BCR-ABL positive chronic myeloid leukaemia in chronic phase. The aim of the study is to confirm the rates of complete molecular remission (CMR) of nilotinib in newly diagnosed CML chronic phase patients in a pan-European population using the EUTOS standardized laboratories.
This purpose of this study is to assess the safety of ustekinumab in psoriasis patients who receive ustekinumab following an inadequate response to methotrexate therapy. The study will provide information for doctors on how to manage the transfer from methotrexate to the biologic agent ustekinumab. The study is designed to compare two methods of transferring patients from methotrexate to ustekinumab. The two methods being compared are discontinuation of methotrexate with immediate initiation of ustekinumab versus initiation of ustekinumab with overlap and gradual dose reduction of methotrexate over 4 weeks.
