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.
Hematological neoplasms originate from the differentiation and proliferation of abnormal lymphatic or myeloid cells that alter the constitution of elements of the blood, bone marrow and lymph nodes. Treatment includes high-dose chemotherapy alone or associated with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). However, the adverse effects of this treatment affect multiple organs and systems, reducing physical capacity, increasing the feeling of fatigue, anxiety and depression, which together affect quality of life. Patients who exercise before, during or after anti-neoplastic treatment demonstrate significant benefits. But rehabilitating physical capacity involves the challenge of fluctuations in the patient's readiness along with daily clinical variations, which ultimately directly affects the rate of adherence to exercises, impacting the effectiveness of the physical rehabilitation program. There is no specific individualization of muscular overload that takes into account such variability in pathophysiological, functional and psychological situations, but the cardiorespiratory response and muscular strength performance in the face of progressive overload can be measured with sufficient recovery periods to optimize the physiological adaptations promoted by muscular overload. regularly, even in patients undergoing antineoplastic treatment. Objective: To evaluate the adherence rate, operational feasibility, clinical/behavioral evolution and effectiveness of three different muscle overload models (aerobic, anaerobic and mixed) used for the physical rehabilitation of patients hospitalized for antineoplastic hematological treatment with HSCT
The primary objectives of this study are to compare sacituzumab tirumotecan to Treatment of Physician's Choice (TPC) with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) per response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST 1.1), as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR), and overall survival (OS). The primary hypotheses are that sacituzumab tirumotecan is superior to TPC with respect to PFS per RECIST 1.1, as assessed by BICR, and that sacituzumab tirumotecan is superior to TPC with respect to OS.
This study will look if CagriSema can lower kidney damage in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), type 2 diabetes (T2D) and overweight or obesity. CagriSema is a new investigational medicine. CagriSema cannot yet be prescribed by doctors. The study will compare CagriSema to the 2 medicines semaglutide and cagrilintide, when they are taken alone. It will also compare CagriSema to a "dummy" medicine (also called placebo) without any active ingredient. Participant will either get CagriSema 2.4 mg, semaglutide 2.4 mg, cagrilintide 2.4 mg or placebo. Which treatment participant will get is decided by chance (like flipping a coin). Study doctor will not know which of the study medicines participant will get. For each participant, the study will last for about 35 weeks.
This is a parallel group, Phase 3, multinational, multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, 3-arm monotherapy study for treatment of participants diagnosed with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD), whose disease is not adequately controlled with topical prescription therapies or when those therapies are not advisable. The purpose of this study is to measure the efficacy and safety of treatment with amlitelimab solution for SC injection compared with placebo in participants with moderate to severe AD aged 12 years and older. Study details include: At the end of the treatment period, participants will have an option to enter a separate study: the blinded extension study EFC17600 (ESTUARY). For participants not entering the blinded extension Study EFC17600 (ESTUARY), the study duration will be up to 44 weeks including a 2 to 4-week screening, a 24-week randomized double-blind period, and a 16-week safety follow-up. For participants entering the blinded extension Study EFC17600 (ESTUARY), the study duration will be up to 28 weeks including a 2 to 4-week screening and a 24-week randomized double-blind period. The total treatment duration will be up to 24 weeks. The total number of visits will be up to 10 visits (or 9 visits for those entering the blinded extension study EFC17600] (ESTUARY).
The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of volrustomig compared to observation in participants with unresected locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA-HNSCC) who have not progressed after receiving definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT).
Date of notification letter to the IRB informing start of recruitment activities: October 21, 2023. Long COVID is a multi-systemic condition comprising often severe and persistent symptoms (longer than 12 weeks) that follow a known episode of COVID-19 and cannot be explained by another medical condition. This condition is observed in up to 15% of all individuals after an acute episode of COVID-19, even in those who had a mild and oligosymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection. Around 40% of these patients present symptoms that significantly compromise their daily activities. There is increasing evidence that LONG COVID is accompanied by dysregulated, persistent and uncontrolled inflammation, often accompanied by the development of an autoreactive immune response, including autoantibodies. Symptoms can last months or years, particularly in cases of chronic fatigue syndrome, with significant proportions of individuals having significant chronic impairment, preventing the performance of work and social activities.
The objective of this study is to assess whether pre-anesthetic photobiomodulation (PBM) can effectively reduce needle puncture pain and enhance the efficiency of local anesthesia. In this double-blind randomized controlled trial, 50 participants were included. The control group underwent the standard anesthetic procedure, while the experimental group received the application of an infrared laser (100mW at 808nm, 8J at a single point) immediately before anesthesia, at the site of the intended needle puncture. Both groups underwent the same anesthetic procedure, administered by the same operator. The outcome evaluator and the patient were blind to the FBM application. The primary outcome of the study focused on pain experienced at the time of needle insertion, assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) during the needle's introduction. Secondary outcomes encompassed anxiety levels, measured using the Beck questionnaire, anesthetic onset time determined through the electric pulp test, the number of anesthetics required for the procedure, and the necessity for supplementary anesthesia.
This is a Phase 3, multi-center, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of ZP5-9676 compared to placebo for the treatment of STH infections. Approximately 300 participants will be enrolled, randomized at the Baseline visit (Day 1) to one of the following treatments in a 1:1 ratio of active and placebo.
Despite many advances in prosthesis development, there are still some areas that need to be improved. One of them is the weight of the devices which could cause muscular fatigue in long-term use of the prosthesis and even abandonment. This study aims to identify the desired improvements in prosthetic devices from the perspective of the users, therapists, and relatives. That would be done through two kinds of questionnaires about technology acceptance.
The goal of this clinical trial was to evaluate the effects of phytosterol supplementation to the diet on lipids, LDL and HDL subfractions, and on the quality of LDL in apparently healthy subjects. The main questions it aims to answer are: - do phytosterols reduce LDL-cholesterol and modify LDL and HDL subfractions? - do phytosterols modify the quality of LDL? Participants were aleatory selected to diet alone (D) or diet plus phytosterols (DP, 2.6 g divided in two doses, with meals) for 12 weeks, followed by a 7-day washout period, where treatments were switched for another 12-weeks.
