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 study is a cross-sectional observational study to evaluate the prevalence of HLA-B*5701 in the European area and in major European ethnotypes. Any HIV-1 infected patient will be eligible for this study including treatment naïve and experienced patients, as well as patients previously tested for HLA-B*5701. Patients will be approached during a standard clinic visit, and will be consented prior to any study specific procedure. They will be asked to provide a tissue sample (cheek cells and blood sample) which will be used to assess HLA-B*5701 status by local and central laboratories. In selected sites patients may be asked to provide an additional blood sample. This sample will be used to develop and validate different methodologies for assessing HLA-B*5701 status.

The purpose of this study is to assess if the study drug, Vardenafil (approved by Health Authorities is available on the market for treatment of erectile dysfunction) has an effect on bladder function and micturition frequency. The study drug is to be taken in the form of tablets twice a day, one tablet in the morning and one tablet in the evening. A non-active treatment (placebo), a sugar pill, will be used as a comparator to see if the new study drug works better than no drug. The timing of visits for the study is as follows: the 1st visit (screening visit) at beginning of run-in-assessment with qualifying tests for patients: electrocardiogram (ECG), safety laboratory and residual urine (by ultrasonography: a non-invasive examination using ultrasound for the assessment of the bladder). 2nd visit (randomization visit). During visit this should be performed: urodynamic measurements (filling cystometry and pressure flow investigations), ECG and safety laboratory. 3rd visit (safety visit) takes place at two up to three weeks of randomized treatment. 4th visit (final visit)-following test should be done: urodynamic measurements (filling cystometry and pressure flow investigations), ECG, safety laboratory and residual urine (by ultrasonography); A phone call 24 hours after visit 4 to assess any SAEs.
This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of incobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin) in the treatment of arm tightness (upper limb spasticity) using two different dilutions of incobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin).
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether overall response to cetuximab combined with cisplatin is better than overall response to cisplatin alone together with showing that the overall response for cetuximab and cisplatin was above a pre-specified threshold of 0.2 in the treatment of "triple negative" metastatic breast cancer. The secondary objective of this study is to compare the differences between the two treatment groups using the following criteria : Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Time, Overall Survival (OS), Time to Response (TTR) and Safety.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of botulinum toxin type A in treating overactive bladder in spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis patients
The purpose of this study is to explore tolerability, safety and effectiveness of flexibly dosed paliperidone extended release (ER) in participants with schizophrenia (psychiatric disorder with symptoms of emotional instability, detachment from reality, often with delusions and hallucinations, and withdrawal into the self) previously unsuccessfully treated with an oral antipsychotic medication.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy, safety and tolerability of darunavir/ritonavir 800/100 mg once a day (O.D.) as a monotherapy versus a triple combination therapy containing 2 nucleosides and darunavir/ritonavir in 250 HIV-1 infected patients who have been on Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) and have plasma viral load below 50 copies/ml for at least 24 weeks.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of FOLFIRI (Irinotecan, Leucovorin and 5 Fluorouracil) chemotherapy when combined with sunitinib or FOLFIRI chemotherapy without adding sunitinib as the first line treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
