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.
Objectives: - To find out if the chance of developing a serious illness or of getting AIDS is less if patients start taking HIV medicines at a time when their cluster-of-differentiation-4 (CD4)+ cell count is still fairly high, instead of waiting until the CD4+ count is at the level where there is good evidence for starting medicines. - To learn more about how a strategy of starting HIV medicines early might affect other aspects of care, such as the chances of developing other illnesses or resistance to HIV medicines, the frequency of doctor visits, the cost of medical care, and general health and satisfaction.
Patients who have completed the 12 weeks treatment of the PATENT-1 trial (study number 12934) will be asked to participate in this long term extension study with BAY63-2521.
Study LVHR is a Phase 3 study which will examine the efficacy and safety of tadalafil 2.5 and 5 mg once daily versus placebo for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) and signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men with both ED and signs and symptoms of BPH.
The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of different doses of BAY63-2521, given orally for 16 weeks, in patients with Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension (CTEPH).
The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of both aliskiren monotherapy and aliskiren/enalapril combination therapy as compared to enalapril monotherapy, on morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic heart failure (NYHA Class II - IV.
The primary objective of the study is to increase by 15% the complete macroscopic resection rate of predominantly liver metastases from metastatic colorectal cancer through combining systemic cetuximab and hepatic artery infusion of three-drug chemotherapy (irinotecan, oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil).
This study was the extension of the LANTU_C_02761 study named EASIE and identified as NCT00751114 (core study comparing insulin glargine versus sitagliptin in insulin-naïve patients treated with metformin and not adequately controlled). All patients with Glycosylated Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥ 7% at the end of the core study had the possibility to enter this extension study if they met the other inclusion criteria and did not present with any exclusion criteria. The visit 14 of the core study (week 24) was the visit 1 (baseline, week 0) of the extension study which consisted of a 12-week treatment period. The objectives of this extension study were: - To assess the glycemic control (HbA1c <7%) of a 3-month combination therapy with metformin, insulin glargine and sitagliptin in patients not adequately controlled by a previous treatment with metformin plus either insulin glargine or sitagliptin. - To assess the effect of insulin glargine in combination with sitagliptin on HbA1c level, fasting plasma glucose, 7-point glucose profile, hypoglycemia occurrence, body weight and overall safety.
This research is being done to find out if Carboplatin and Taxane works better alone or when given with an experimental drug called MORAb-003(farletuzumab) in subjects with first platinum sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer.
This study compares indacaterol with tiotropium in terms of bronchodilation over 52 weeks
Surgical repair of perineal lesions after delivery is frequently associated with pain and discomfort interfering with the normal activities of the puerperium.
