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.
Studies on facial trauma are essential to establish an appropriate treatment approach, assess the ability to restore functions and seek ways of prevention. Among craniofacial injuries, fractures of the zygomatic complex are the most frequent, occurring in 25-30% of cases. Statistical analysis shows that traffic collisions (41%), domestic accidents (23%) and sports accidents (18%) are the main causes. Dental implants have emerged as a rehabilitative alternative for these patients, being considered the first choice for individuals who have lost all or part of their dental arch. In addition to providing a better quality of life, it reconstitutes masticatory function, self-esteem and phonetics. Understanding the importance of evaluating the performance of dental implants and considering the responsibility for the health of patients, there was a need to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the Standard Internal Hexagon Implant System (HIS), Large Internal Hexagon (HIL), Flexcone (FC) , Mini Flexcone (FCM) and Morse Internal Hexagon, from DSP. In this prospective study, 1053 implants will be included. To be eligible, patients can be of both sexes, be 18 years of age or older, any race and gender, have partial or total tooth loss, present good local and general health conditions and psychological disposition to undergo common oral surgery procedures. under local anesthesia and healthy edentulous region as they will be subsequently submitted to surgical procedures using the DSP Implant System. Electronic data collection and management will be performed using the REDCap software, with categorical variables being described as absolute and relative frequencies and continuous ones being tested for normality using the Shapiro-Wilk test. Osseointegration percentages between 30 days and 6 months will also be calculated. Other efficacy outcomes and incidence of adverse events will be estimated with 95% confidence intervals. As a result, from the strengthening of product evaluation actions, it is expected to demonstrate that the implant has a good safety and efficacy profile to be offered to the population.
Crossfit® is a training modality that consists in functional movements, constantly varied and executed at high intensity. Both training sessions and competitions involve physically demanding activities, which in addition to being performed at very high intensity also involves the aerobic metabolism pathway. These characteristics led to very high metabolic and muscular stress, as well as decrease in physical performance immediately after competitions and training sessions. The cumulative effects of the metabolic and muscular stress can be a precursor of injuries. Studies using different therapeutic modalities aiming to improve post-exercise recovery are needed in order to tackle this issue. However, to the date there are no studies investigating the effects of different therapeutic modalities in an exercise modality such as Crossfit®. Therefore, the aim of this project is to assess the effects of different therapeutic modalities on performance and muscle recovery of Crossfit® athletes.
The purpose of this study is to measure the long-term safety and tolerability of ianalumab in participants with Sjogrens syndrome who have previously completed treatment from one of two NEPTUNUS 1 year core studies (CVAY736A2301 or CVAY736A2302). - The study treatment is ianalumab 300 mg in a 2 mL pre-filled syringe for injection. All participants will receive ianalumab either monthly or every 3 months. - The treatment duration will be 3 years with an additional up to 2-year safety follow-up. The total duration of this extension study will be up to 5 years. - The visit frequency will be monthly during both the treatment period and mandatory follow-up, and then less frequently during the subsequent conditional follow-up Treatment of interest: The randomized treatment (ianalumab) will be received monthly or every 3 months. Participants assigned to treatment every 3 months will receive placebo every month between the ianalumab doses to maintain blinding. Number of Participants: Approximately 600 participants from the NEPTUNUS core studies will be rolled over into the extension study. Treatment Groups:There will be no screening period in this trial. From Week 48 of the NEPTUNUS core study, participants will be given the opportunity to consent to this extension study. From Week 52 of the NEPTUNUS core studies (i.e., Day 1 in the extension study), eligible participants will be assigned to either one of the treatment regimens: - ianalumab 300 mg monthly or - ianalumab 300 mg once every 3 months Participants receiving placebo in either of the NEPTUNUS core studies will be randomized 1:1 to receive ianalumab 300 mg monthly or every 3 months starting from Week 60 and participants receiving ianalumab in either of the NEPTUNUS core studies will continue the same treatment in the extension study. Ianalumab will be given as a subcutaneous injection from a 2 mL pre-filled syringe. Participants will be given the opportunity to self-inject at home on some visits after receiving training.
The purpose of eVOLVE-Lung02 is to test the effectiveness (efficacy) and measure the safety of volrustomig in combination with chemotherapy compared with pembrolizumab in combination with chemotherapy as 1L treatment in participants with mNSCLC in PD-L1 < 50%.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of AT-1501 compared with tacrolimus in patients undergoing kidney transplantation.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in patients undergoing thoracic procedures the lung inflammatory response in on one-lung ventilation and two-lung ventilation strategies The main question to answer is: • Lung inflammation differs when comparing one to two-lung ventilation strategies during the procedure? Participants will be divided in the classic one lung ventilation or two lung ventilation (using pneumothorax with CO2) and different biomarkers of lung inflammation will be measured after procedures.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the main causes of chronic pain and physical disability, which directly impacts the quality of life of patients. The prevalence of OA among adults over 60 years of age is approximately 13% in women and 10% in men. Knee OA (gonarthrosis) has as main risk factors, in addition to age, female gender and obesity. Pharmacological treatment of gonarthrosis is based on approaches to reduce symptoms and/or pain, with joint replacement (arthroplasty) being reserved for more advanced forms of the disease. In general, currently available treatments have only moderate effects and low satisfaction rates among patients. Photobiomodulation Therapy (TFBM) has been used for at least 50 years by health professionals to treat a variety of clinical conditions, especially those associated with chronic pain. TFBM is a treatment using a non-ionizing light source such as Low Intensity Laser (LBI) or Light Emitting Diodes (LED), with near-infrared wavelengths. The aim of this study is to evaluate the intensity of knee pain in the short and medium term after photobiomodulation therapy in patients with gonarthrosis. In this multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial, 238 volunteers with gonarthrosis grades II and III according to the Kellgren-Lawrence classification will be recruited to be administered adjuvant treatment with TFBM. The TFBM will be performed in the knee region, twice a week, for five weeks, totaling 10 sessions. Volunteers will be allocated in the intervention group (n=119) or in the placebo group, which will be treated with 10 sessions of inert light (n=119). The hypothesis is that the photobiomodulation therapy will have a positive impact, in the short and medium term, on improving pain, functionality and quality of life of patients with symptomatic gonarthrosis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the acute effects of percutaneous and transcutaneous eletroclipolysis on abdominal contour in women. The main question it aims to answer are: • Is there superiority in percutaneous and transcutaneous electrolipolysis techniques? Participants will undergo 12 sessions of 50 minutes each performed twice a week, totaling 6 weeks, after randomizing the hemibody for each technique. Researchers will compare the hemibody with the percutaneous technique with the hemibody with the transcutaneous technique to see if there is a reduction of the adipose tissue.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 02 facial sunscreens (investigational products [IPs]) under controlled and normal conditions of use on the face for 28 and 56 days, respectively. This study will consist of 2 groups a) Group 1: will assess the safety and efficacy of a facial sunscreen in improving skin hydration and barrier function, through 12h of single application on the face in comparison with the control area (other side of face) and on the forearm, comparing 02 IPs versus control area (no product application) and 03 benchmarks; and through use of the IP under normal conditions for 28 +/- 2 days on the face, with assessments by instrumental measurements of corneometry, transepidermal water loss, image capture (Colorface) and assessments of the efficacy perceived by the participant; b) Group 2: will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a facial sunscreen in improving skin hydration and barrier function, through 12h of single application on the face; and through use of IP under normal conditions for 28 +/- 2 days on the face, with assessments by instrumental measurements of corneometry, transepidermal water loss, imaging (Colorface) and assessments of the efficacy perceived by the participant; in addition to evaluating the improvement in uniformity of facial skin tone through the use of IP under normal conditions for 56 +/- 2 days, with assessments by image analysis (Colorface), dermatological clinical analyses (radiance and homogeneity of skin tone),assessments of perceived efficacy, and emotional testimony by the participant.
