There are about 10004 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Brazil. 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 is a Phase III, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre, international study assessing the efficacy and safety of durvalumab (MEDI4736) and domvanalimab (AB154) compared with durvalumab plus placebo in adults with locally advanced (Stage III), unresectable NSCLC whose disease has not progressed following definitive platinum-based cCRT.
Antimicrobial resistance is a major global problem, particularly in hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). Gram-negative bacilli (GNB), including Enterobacterales, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii, are among the most common pathogens associated with multidrug resistance and HAIs. These bacteria are of special concern because few therapeutic options are available. Traditionally, the duration of treatment for severe multidrug-resistant (MDR)-GNB infections is 14 days. Studies of severe infections by GNB, regardless of susceptibility profile, have shown that shorter antimicrobial treatments are not inferior to traditional durations of therapy and are associated with a lower incidence of adverse effects. However, there are currently no studies assessing whether shorter duration of antimicrobial treatment is effective for MDR-GNB. This open-label, randomized clinical trial aims to assess the non-inferiority of 7-day antibiotic therapy compared to conventional 14-day treatment in severe infections by MDR-GNB.
An observational, multicenter, national study with retrospective real-life data collection on the combined treatment of sibutramine and topiramate (off-label use) for the treatment of overweight with comorbidity(ies) or obesity. Data from all adult patients, of both sexes, for whom combination treatment with sibutramine and topiramate, both at any dose/dosage, were prescribed between the year 2011 and the beginning of the study will be included in the study.
A phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group, active-drug- and placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess the safety, efficacy and superiority of the new fixed-dose combination sibutramine IR/topyramat XR in weight reduction in overweight adults with comorbidity(ies) or obesity
This is a Phase 3, open-label, international, multicenter study of CGT9486 in combination with sunitinib. This is a multi-part study that will enroll approximately 426 patients. Part 1 consists of two evaluations: 1) confirming the dose of an updated formulation of CGT9486 to be used in subsequent parts in approximately 20 patients who have received at least one prior line of therapy for GIST and 2) evaluating for drug-drug interactions between CGT9486 and sunitinib in approximately 18 patients who have received at least two prior tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) for GISTs. The second part of the study will enroll approximately 388 patients who are intolerant to, or who failed prior treatment with imatinib only and will compare the efficacy of CGT9486 plus sunitinib to sunitinib alone with patients being randomized in a 1:1 manner.
This is a 12-month, parallel treatment, Phase 3, double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled study to evaluate the effect of venglustat on neuropathic and abdominal pain symptoms of Fabry disease in participants ≥16 years of age with Fabry disease who are treatment-naïve or untreated for at least 6 months. - Study visits will take place approximately every 3 months. - The double-blind period will be followed by an open-label extension (OLE) during which participants who have completed the double-blind period will be treated with venglustat for up to an additional 12 months.
Thoracic complications directly or indirectly consequence of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) (including either pathologies strictly related to the infection, or iatrogenic effects of therapeutic attempts to treat it) have been described during the pandemic. Many of the above conditions often require a surgical approach but, based on published data reporting high early postoperative morbidity and mortality, many experts initially advised against any referral to surgery in COVID-19 patients. Therefore, the issue is if salvage surgical approach should be always excluded or could be considered when it represents the only remaining effective option. In the absence of solid data and recommendations, this is a demanding challenge for thoracic surgeons. The investigators have coordinated a multicenter study to collect the experience of several worldwide high-volume thoracic surgery departments. Their objective is to investigate efficacy and safety of surgery in COVID-19 patients who developed thoracic complications that required operative management.
The purpose of this clinical trial (called the FLOTILLA study) is to give continued access to the study medicines, as well as safety follow-up, for participants in prior clinical trials of encorafenib and/or binimetinib. All participants who took part in earlier encorafenib and/or binimetinib studies may participate the FLOTILLA study if they are still benefiting from the use of the study medicines. This will be determined by the study doctor. People may not participate in the FLOTILLA study if they have not enrolled in a prior study of encorafenib or binimetinib. Participants that had enrolled but had stopped receiving the study treatment in a prior study cannot enrolled in this study. Participants in the FLOTILLA study will receive encorafenib and/or binimetinib at the same dose and frequency as in their prior study, for up to about 5 years.
The objective of this study will be to identify whether a conditioning procedure by the surreptitious downgrade of a noxious stimulus intensity associated with induced positive expectations about treatment will result in greater hypoalgesic effects when compared to positive verbal suggestions (positive expectation induction) alone regarding the effects of spinal manipulative therapy intervention in patients with CLBP. This study will enroll 264 individuals with CLBP aged between 18 and 60 years. Spinal Manipulative Therapy in the lumbar spine will be administered to all participants during 5 sessions. First assessment session - participants will be submitted to a quantitative sensory testing (QST) to determine the heat pain threshold (calibration test) to run the conditioning procedure. Afterward, participants will be allocated by a blinded researcher into the following subgroups: hidden conditioning + positive expectation (G1); positive expectation alone (G2) and a group submitted to neutral expectations (G3) about the treatment. First treatment session - Firstly, participants will receive instructions with the aim to induce positive (or neutral) expectations by means of a workshop. Secondly, all the participants will be submitted again to the pre-conditioning test, using the more intense pain stimulus obtained in the calibration test, then patients will be assessed regarding pain intensity and finally submitted to the manipulative therapy. At the end of the first treatment session, the conditioning test will be repeated, but the heat pain threshold of the hidden conditioning group (G1) will be surreptitiously downgraded (from intense pain stimulus to moderate pain stimulus) as a means of conditioning patients to believe that manipulative therapy promoted pain relief. Pain intensity will be assessed again to confirm a decrease in pain intensity. Outcomes will be assessed three times: immediately after the five therapy sessions, one month later, and three months later. The primary outcomes assessed will be pain intensity and global perceived effect of improvement. The secondary outcome will be low back pain disability.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the prophylactic effect of JNJ-64281802 with respect to the prevention of laboratory-confirmed dengue virus (DENV) infection up to the last day of dosing among participants who have no evidence of current DENV infection at baseline.
