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.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether treatment with tamoxifen or a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors (NSAI) + goserelin + LEE011 prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) compared to treatment with tamoxifen or a NSAI + goserelin + placebo in premenopausal women with hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer.
Medtronic , Inc. is sponsoring the World-wide Randomized Antibiotic Envelope Infection Prevention Trial (WRAP-IT), a randomized, prospective, multi-center, single blinded, post-market, interventional clinical study. This study will evaluate the ability of the TYRX™ envelope to reduce major Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device (CIED) infections through 12-months post-procedure following CIED generator replacement, upgrade, revision, or de novo cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) implant. Additionally, this large device study provides the unique opportunity to prospectively characterize the performance of Medtronic's lead monitoring features in subjects whose CIED system includes a transvenous right ventricular (RV) defibrillation lead. Finally, the WRAP-IT study will serve as a post-approval study for those geographies requiring a post-approval study of the TYRX™ envelope.
BIOLUX P-III is a prospective, international, multi-centre, postmarket all-comers registry to collect clinical performance data on the Passeo-18 Lux paclitaxel releasing balloon catheter in the treatment of atherosclerotic disease of the infrainguinal arteries.
This is a two-arm, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, pre-operative study to evaluate the effect of combining letrozole and GDC-0032 (also known as taselisib) versus letrozole and placebo in postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) untreated, Stage I-III operable breast cancer. Participants will be randomized into one of the two treatment arms with a 1:1 randomization ratio. Letrozole at 2.5 milligrams (mg) will be dosed once daily plus either Taselisib at 4 mg (two 2-mg tablets) or placebo on a 5 days-on/ 2 days-off schedule for a total of 16 weeks.
The objective of this phase III trial is to establish statistical equivalence in terms of efficacy (best overall response rate [ORR], proportion of patients with complete response [CR] plus partial response [PR]) until 18 weeks of first-line treatment with BI 695502 plus chemotherapy versus Avastin® plus chemotherapy followed by maintenance monotherapy with either BI 695502 or Avastin®.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefits and risks of hypoglossal nerve stimulation with the ImThera Medical aura6000 System as a potential therapeutic option for individuals with moderate to severe OSA that have failed or do not tolerate PAP.
This study will be carried out as a retrospective, non-interventional observational review of medical records for patients in multiple countries with platinum-sensitive recurrent serous ovarian cancer. The objectives are to describe in a real-world population, treatment patterns, BRCA mutation testing and results, overall survival, health care utilization and also to estimate rates of selected treatment- and/or disease-related side effects
A significant increase in resistant bacteria emerging in HSCT recipients. For example, 25% - 42% of all enterobacteriaceae produce extended spectrum beta-lactamases; 8 - 72% of Pseudomonas aeruginosa are resistant to at least one and 25 - 62% to three or more antibiotic classes, 13% of Gram-negative bacteria are caused by a multidrug-resistant (MDR) strain (Trecarichi JI 09, Mikulska BBMT 09, Oliveira BMT 07, Caselli Haemat 10, Gudiol, JAC 11). These resistant bacteria may be associated with increased mortality and have limited treatment options (Caselli Haemat 10, Poutsiaka BMT 07, DiazGranadoz JID 05). To provide the currently best empirical coverage and to control the growing resistance, knowledge of trends in antibiotic susceptibility, as well as risk factors is essential. For this reason we propose to perform non-interventional prospective multicentre study in EBMT centres.
The main objective of the study is to evaluate whether the extended duration fidaxomicin therapy is superior to the standard vancomycin therapy in sustained clinical cure of CDI at 30 days after end of treatment (Day 40 or Day 55).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic yield (at 1 month post enrollment) of an external loop recorder (SpiderFlash-T) in patients with syncope or palpitations of suspected arrhythmic origin, within 30 days before enrollment.
