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 the study is to compare overall response rate (ORR) between treatment groups in participants with higher-risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) or Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML) who are not eligible for Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT).
This is a randomized blinded trial with non-probabilistic sampling for convenience. Our goal is to compare PFMT with intravaginal vibratory stimulus versus PFMT alone on the treatment of female urinary incontinence.
Background: Preoperative exercise training programs of long duration, that delay surgical resection of tumors, may not be feasible in the treatment of malignant disease. In people with lung cancer, improvements in postoperative outcomes have been demonstrated with short duration (i.e. up to seven days) preoperative exercise training programs. However, the feasibility of short duration preoperative exercise training programs in people with abdominal cancer has not been investigated. Objective: In people undergoing surgical resection for abdominal cancer, to investigate the effects of a seven-day preoperative exercise training program on preoperative exercise capacity and peripheral muscle strength as well as adherence rates, adverse events and subjective perception of satisfaction and discomfort of participants to the preoperative treatment. Design: A feasibility study. Setting: Participants will be recruited from the surgical ward of a public hospital in São Paulo, Brazil. Participants: 22 inpatients over 18 years old, awaiting surgical resection for colorectal, esophageal, gastric, hepatic or pancreatic cancer. Intervention: The participants will undergo a seven-day, inpatient preoperative exercise training program that includes aerobic and resistance exercises. Measurements: preoperative exercise capacity, peripheral muscle strength, adherence rates (consent rates, recruitment rates, completion rates and adherence), adverse events, the reasons for ineligibility and the reasons for declining participation and the subjective perception of satisfaction and discomfort of the participants to the preoperative treatment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunotherapeutic activity of cemiplimab in participants with hepatitis B virus (HBV) on suppressive antiviral therapy.
Patients after the Fontan operation at a single institution will be randomized to receive a standardized extract of Aesculus hippocastanum L. (horse chestnut) or placebo for 4 months in a crossover clinical trial. The primary outcome will be the mesenteric artery resistance measured by Dopple sonography.
This is a retrospective study in patients with cancer of the oral cavity, pharynx, and larynx. Imaging exams of these patients will be analyzed with the objective of developing and validating a clinically applicable method for evaluation of cachexia and/or sarcopenia in a patient with head and neck cancer from musculature imaging of the neck. Indeed, the prognostic influence of body composition will be evaluated.
The reason for this study is to see if the drug abemaciclib in combination with nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitors (anastrozole or letrozole) is effective in participants with Hormone Receptor Positive (HR+), Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 Negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer that have certain disease characteristics.
The investigators plan to develop and test Motherly, a smartphone app to promote maternal mental health and child development. The Motherly app is visually appealing aimed at engaging the user with a minimalistic layout. The app will offer a gamified experience ideal for engaging youth in behaviors that can promote mental health, such as stimulating pleasure, productivity, and physical activities, connecting with peers, and eating healthy food. Pregnant women aged 16-34 living in Brazil will participate in the clinical trial to test the efficacy of the intervention.
This randomized, multi-centric, controlled clinical trial will assess the effectiveness of a simplified restorative protocol used after the selective carious tissue removal in posterior teeth presenting deep carious lesions. Only a regular bulk-fill composite will be used in the simplified restorative protocol following the application of universal adhesive. A liner with resin-modified glass ionomer will be used over the pulpal floor before the composite placement in the control group. The longevity of restorative procedures and post-operative sensitivity were defined as the main and secondary outcomes.
The color change of endodontically treated teeth is a common concern in clinical practice. The objective of this study will be to evaluate, in vivo, the color change (ΔE00) caused by endodontic treatment. A randomized clinical trial (RCT) will be conducted with the objective of evaluating ΔE00 originated from epoxy resin (AH Plus) and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA Fillapex) endodontic sealers, sectioned at the cervical level and 2 mm below, in a period between the immediate endodontic treatment versus after 3, 6 and 12 months.
