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.
The purpose of this Proof of Concept (PoC) and Dose-finding (DF) basket study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of orally administered Enpatoran over 24 weeks in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE; subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus [SCLE] and/or discoid lupus erythematosus [DLE]) participants in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel, adaptive and dose-ranging setting. Study Duration: 33 weeks Visit Frequency: every 2 or 4 weeks Enpatoran is not available through an expanded access program.
This is an open-label, multi-center, roll-over study to evaluate the long term safety of ribociclib in combination with other drugs in participants who are participating in a Novartis sponsored global study, that has fulfilled requirements for its primary objective(s), and who in the opinion of the Investigator, would benefit from continued treatment.
Introduction: A pandemic such as the SRAS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) has a great negative socioeconomic impact with very limited therapeutic options. As with any disease, a detailed understanding of its pathophysiological mechanisms is critical for the development of new therapies. In SRAS-CoV-2, few studies have verified a possible relationship of these vasoactive peptide polymorphisms with patient prognosis. Objective: To analyze and relate polymorphisms found in components of vasoactive peptide systems in DNA samples collected from patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) who developed severe conditions and patients infected with mild or asymptomatic conditions. Methodology: Cross-sectional, analytical and qualitative study that will be conducted with approximately 151 participants previously diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 with mild or asymptomatic forms of the pathology, diagnosed in primary care in the city of Guarulhos/SP- specifically in the Basic Health Unit of Nova Saúde Bonsucesso- well with participants who were diagnosed with the severe forms that required hospitalization in 2021. For the collection of biological material, a sterile swab will be used in order to collect cells from the oral cavity, specifically from the oral mucosa. Expected results: We hope to identify and relate the polymorphisms of vasoactive peptide genes from patients with mild, asymptomatic or severe forms of SARS-CoV-2 infection, thus contributing to the understanding of the different clinical evolutions of the disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether late recanalization in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) without Viability on Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) can reduce the reverse remodeling through the reduction of the End Systolic Volume (ESV) at 6 months.
Osteoarthritis represents failed repair of joint damage resulting from stresses initiated by any joint or periarticular tissue abnormality. The rate of progression varies among persons and within a knee over time. The symptoms and signs of knee osteoarthritis include pain, stiffness, reduced joint motion, and muscle weakness. Long-term consequences can include reduced physical activity, deconditioning, impaired sleep, fatigue, depression, and disability.This reduction in activity to avoid pain (kinesiophobia) to evade the onset of pain, especially in the acute phase, limiting their compliance with effective rehabilitation strategies such as regular exercises. Physical medicine has a wide range of analgesic anti-inflammatory and muscle stimulating treatment methods. Both diadynamic and TENS currents have become the most frequently implemented electrotherapeutic methods. The impact of diadynamic currents consists of analgesic effects and specific dynamics during the formation of physiological processes in tissues. They occur during the administration of the current and lasts up to a few hours after the treatment has been terminated. One of the theories explaining the analgesic effect of diadynamic currents is the gate control theory of pain by Wall and Melzack. Recently, another theory has become very popular. It explains the analgesic effect provoked by bodies characterized as polypeptides called endorphins. Electric stimulation using diadynamic currents generates an increase in the amount of endorphins in a system. Although the analgesic impact of TENS therapy is well known, Diadynamic currents therapies have not been studied in knee osteoarthritis pain conditions. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the medium-term effects of Diadynamic currents combined with exercise on pain and disability in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee.
To identify clinical, personal and anthropometric characteristics among patients with asthma who respond and non-responders to a behavioral intervention to increase the level of physical activity.
The purpose of this Phase III study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tozorakimab Dose 1 and Dose 2 administered subcutaneously (SC) in adult participants with symptomatic COPD and history of ≥ 2 moderate or ≥ 1 severe exacerbation of COPD in the previous 12 months. Participants should be receiving optimised treatment with maintenance inhaled therapy (ICS/LABA/LAMA triple therapy, or dual therapy if triple is not considered appropriate) in stable doses throughout at least 3 months prior to enrolment.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare antibody response and safety of the Covid-19 (recombinante) vaccine according to different time intervals between the first two doses (4, 8 and 12 weeks) and serologic status immediately before the vaccine.
To compare the efficacy and safety of remibrutinib versus teriflunomide in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS)
Light and ultrasound can be interesting alternatives to reduce abdominal fat. Thus, the main objective of this study will be to evaluate the effects of these isolated techniques and their association in subcutaneous abdominal localized fat. These techniques will be used adding muscle electrostimulation in all groups. A total of 40 female participants will be recruited at the university outpatient, which will be distributed among four experimental groups: light + sham ultrasound + electrostimulation; light sham + ultrasound + electrostimulation; combined treatment (light + ultrasound) + electrostimulation; sham combined treatment + electrostimulation. The treatments will consist of eight sessions, twice a week for a month, being 90 minutes per session.
