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 the study was to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of intravenous infusion of serelaxin, when added to standard therapy, in acute heart failure (AHF) patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Cabozantinib (XL184) compared with Everolimus (Afinitor) on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in subjects with advanced renal cell cancer that has progressed after prior VEGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy.
By using functional MRI the investigators have recently shown that TNFi elicit rapid changes in brain function linked to the perception of RA [5]. Functional MRI represents a method allowing detecting tiny changes in neuronal activity by measuring alterations of blood flow in the context of neuronal activation. TNFi rapidly reversed the widespread activation of brain centers involved in pain such as the thalamus and the somatosensoric cortex, as well as those involved in the control, of mood and emotions such as the limbic system. Moreover, as small phase I study with 10 patients with RA showed that high brain activity detected in the functional MRI predicts clinical response to Certolizumab Pegol after 1 month, suggesting the central nervous system activity may be used as a tool to predict response to TNFi [8]. The rationale of this study is to test whether response to TNFi can be predicted by using functional MRI.
This multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the addition of bevacizumab treatment to lomustine (in 2nd-line [2L] treatment) and SOC (in 3rd-line [3L] and subsequent lines of treatment) following first-line disease progression (PD1) in participants with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. All enrolled participants will receive 1L treatment with radiotherapy, temozolomide, and bevacizumab. At PD1, eligible participants will be randomized (1:1) to receive 2L treatment with either bevacizumab plus lomustine or placebo plus lomustine. After second-line disease progression (PD2), participants will receive 3L treatment and will continue blinded bevacizumab or placebo with the addition of an SOC agent. Following third-line disease progression (PD3), participants will receive subsequent lines of treatment and will either continue blinded bevacizumab or placebo (at the discretion of the investigator), or switch to open-label bevacizumab (at the choice of the participant).
Evaluation of headache response at 2 hours for active treated attacks for increasing dose.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of CNTO 136 (sirukumab) in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are unresponsive to treatment with modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) or anti-TNF alpha agents.
This phase 4 study is designed for the collection of blood biomarker samples from patients who have completed chronic hepatitis B treatment with at least 25 weeks of a Pegasys (peginterferon alfa 2a) containing regimen and at least 24 weeks post-treatment follow-up. Patients may be enrolled from historical studies supported or sponsored by Roche, ongoing studies supported or sponsored by Roche or from general medical practice. The follow-up of patients who choose to participate in this study will be in accordance with the ongoing studies or with the general medical practice of the physician. Data from whole blood DNA samples collected in the GV28555 study or available from previously collected Roche Clinical Repository (RCR) samples will be used for combined analysis with data from other applicable studies. Procedures will include blood sample collection (not applicable for patients who previously have consented and donated RCR DNA samples) and medical record capture.
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of afatinib (Giotrif) in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring EGFR mutation(s) and have never been treated with an EGFR-TKI
The purpose of this study was to analyze microcurrent short and long term effects used with aerobic exercise on abdominal fat.
This open-label, multicenter, 3-period, fixed-sequence study will evaluate the effect of multiple doses of vemurafenib on the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of acenocoumarol in participants with BRAFV600 mutation-positive metastatic malignancies. Participants will receive a single dose of acenocoumarol 4 mg orally on Day 1 and Day 23, vemurafenib 960 mg orally twice daily on Days 4-26. After completion of pharmacokinetic assessments on Day 26, eligible participants will have the option to continue treatment with vemurafenib as part of an extension study (GO28399 [NCT01739764]).
