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.
To evaluate the efficacy of SR31747 given at 75 or 125mg per day versus placebo in androgen prostate cancer patient without distant metastases with Time to Clinical progression as main objective and PSA parameters, Tumor response, survival , safety,Tumor-related symptoms deterioration Quality of Life, PK analysis as secondary objectives
To assess the efficacy of dronedarone in preventing cardiovascular hospitalization or death from any cause in a population of high-risk patients with atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter (AF/AFL). To assess that dronedarone is well tolerated in this population.
Primary objective: The primary study objective is to demonstrate superior efficacy of an intensified insulin regimen with insulin glulisine and insulin glargine to a two-injection conventional insulin regimen in terms of change in glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), from baseline to endpoint. Secondary objectives: Secondary study objectives are to compare the intensified insulin regimen with insulin glulisine and insulin glargine to a two-injection conventional insulin regimen in terms of blood glucose (BG) values (fasting, pre-/postprandial (ppBG), nocturnal, mean daily, fasting plasma glucose), daily BG profiles, BG and HbA1c response rates (predefined), hypoglycemic events, adverse events, change of late diabetes complications, weight, body-mass-index, course of total daily insulin dose and adjustment, blood lipid profile, microalbuminuria, standard lab and quality of life/treatment satisfaction.
Primary objectives: - To compare Disease-Free Survival (DFS) of an adjuvant treatment with docetaxel given either sequentially or in combination with doxorubicin and followed by CMF to doxorubicin alone or in combination with cyclophosphamide and followed by CMF in operable breast cancer patients with positive axillary lymph nodes. Secondary objectives: - To compare DFS of an adjuvant treatment with doxorubicin followed by docetaxel followed by CMF to doxorubicin followed by CMF in operable breast cancer patients with positive axillary lymph nodes - To compare DFS of an adjuvant treatment with docetaxel in combination with doxorubicin followed by CMF to doxorubicin in combination with cyclophosphamide followed by CMF in operable breast cancer patients with positive axillary lymph nodes - To compare DFS of an adjuvant treatment with doxorubicin followed by docetaxel followed by CMF to doxorubicin in combination with docetaxel followed by CMF in operable breast cancer patients with positive axillary lymph nodes, (sequential mono-chemotherapy versus polychemotherapy). - To compare overall survival of treatment arms. - To compare toxicity of treatment arms. - To evaluate pathologic and molecular markers for predicting efficacy. - Socioeconomic data will be collected in order to be able to perform a socioeconomic analysis by country, when needed.
To evaluate the effectiveness of amlodipine/atorvastatin therapy by assessing the percentage of subjects who reach target blood pressure (BP) and LDL-C targets as defined by their governing guidelines.
30-40% of patients with lung cancer will develop bone metastases during the course of their disease, which can lead to pain, decreased mobility and skeletal complications. This study will investigate the effect of zoledronic acid on preventing or delaying the development of bone metastases and the impact on disease progression/survival in patients with stage IIIA and IIIB Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
Post-menopausal breast cancer patients will receive letrozole 2.5 mg daily for the treatment of breast cancer and will be randomized to a treatment group to receive either upfront zoledronic acid 4 mg IV 15-minute infusion every 6 months or delayed start zoledronic acid 4 mg IV 15-minute infusion every 6 months. Delayed start zoledronic acid will be initiated when either the Bone Mineral Density T-score is below -2 Standard Deviations at either the lumbar spine or hip or any clinical fracture unrelated to trauma or an asymptomatic fracture discovered at the month 36 scheduled visit. Letrozole 2.5 mg will be given daily for 5 years.
To show whether addition of thrombolytic treatment by a single bolus injection of tenecteplase prior to early standard PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) will improve the clinical outcome in patients with large acute myocardial infarcts as compared to primary PCI alone.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of an intravitreal implant of dexamethasone for the treatment of diabetic macular edema.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of an intravitreal implant of dexamethasone for the treatment of macular edema associated with retinal vein occlusion.
