There are about 2320 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Chile. 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 aim of this study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of MORAb-202, and to assess the objective response rate in participants with previously treated, metastatic NSCLC AC.
After tooth extraction, there is a subsequent bone loss as a part of the natural healing of the tissue. Up to 50% of bone loss occurs during the first three months after extraction, jeopardizing a possible implant treatment. Alveolar ridge preservation techniques reduce bone loss, allowing a future implant treatment. Different bone filling materials have been used with good clinical results. The second-generation platelet concentrates (L-PRF) have recently been shown to induce bone regeneration when filling the socket after extraction, with significant biological and economic advantages. The hypothesis of this study is to test whether or not the use of L-PRF in alveolar ridge preservation results in a non-inferior horizontal radiographic change compared with the combination of a xenogeneic bone substitute with a collagen matrix.
This study is open to adults aged 18 and older or above legal age who have systemic sclerosis. People can participate if they have a specific subtype called diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis. People with another subtype called limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis can also participate if they are anti Scl-70 antibody positive. Systemic sclerosis is also called scleroderma. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called Avenciguat (BI 685509) helps people with scleroderma who have symptoms due to lung fibrosis or vascular problems. Participants are put into 2 groups by chance. One group takes Avenciguat (BI 685509) tablets 3 times a day and the other group takes placebo tablets 3 times a day. Placebo tablets look like BI 685509 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take the tablets for at least 11 months. Afterwards, participants can continue to take the tablets until the last participant has completed the 11-months treatment period. This means that the time in the study and duration of treatment is different for each participant, depending on when they start the study. At the beginning of the study, participants visit the study site every 2 weeks. The time between the visits to the study site gets longer over the course of the study. After the 11-months treatment period, participants visit the study site every 3 months. During the study, participants regularly do lung function tests. The results are compared between the 2 groups to see whether the treatment works. The participants also regularly fill in questionnaires about their scleroderma symptoms. The doctors regularly check participants' skin condition and general health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) in combination with pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab in combination with pemetrexed and platinum chemotherapy in participants with no prior therapy for advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common performed surgical procedures in urology. Over the past few decades there have been an increasing development of newer surgical treatment options. Additionally, the outcome parameters for BPH treatments have been standardized. While data are available for the initial pivotal studies, post-market release data are lacking. Under the umbrella of uCARE, we have started a prospective, ongoing international registry for recording demographics and outcomes for patients undergoing surgical treatments for BPH.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the long term safety and efficacy of orally administered M5049 in participants with subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE), discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) and/or systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who have completed the 24 week treatment period of Willow study (MS200569_0003 [NCT05162586]).
Particularly, muscle respiratory wasting will occur early (18 to 69 hours) in up to 60% of patients with mechanical ventilation (MV), leading rapidly to diaphragmatic weakness, which is associated with prolonged MV use, longer ICU and hospital stay, and higher mortality risk. Sepsis and muscle inactivity, derived from sedation and MV use, are key driver mechanisms for developing these consequences, which can be avoided through early physical activation. However, exercise is limited at the early stages of care, where sedation and MV are needed, delaying muscle activation. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) represents an alternative to achieve early muscle contraction in non-cooperative patients, being able to prevent local muscle wasting and, according to some reports, has the potential to shorten the time on MV, suggesting a systemic effect through myokines, a diverse range of cytokines and chemokines secreted by myocytes during muscle contraction. However, no studies have evaluated whether NMES applied to peripheral muscles can exert distant muscle effects over the diaphragm, ameliorating its weakness and if this protective profile is associated with myokine's change in ICU patients. This proposal comprises a randomized controlled study of NMES applied twice daily, for three days, compared to standard care (no NMES). Thirty-two patients will be recruited in the first 48 hours after MV and randomly assigned to the control group or NMES group (16 subjects each). Muscle characterization of quadriceps and diaphragm will be performed at baseline (Day 1, before the first NMES session) and after the last NMES session (morning of day 4). Myokine measurements [IL-1, IL-6, IL-15, Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), Myostatin and Decorin], through blood serum obtained from peripheric blood samples, will be performed just before starting NMES (T0) at the end of the session (T0.5), and 2 and 6 hours later (T2 and T6). These myokine curves will be repeated on days 1 and 3 at the first NMES session of the day. The Control group will be assessed in the same way and timing, except that blood samples will be at T0 and T6. Additionally, functional outcomes such as MV time and ICU length of stay will be registered for all patients at ICU discharge. Standard care won´t be altered.
The primary objectives of the study are to evaluate the efficacy of BIIB059 (litifilimab) compared with placebo in reducing skin disease activity measured by the Cutaneous Lupus Activity of Physician's Global Assessment-Revised (CLA-IGA-R) score [Parts A and B (US)] and the Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Disease Area and Severity Index Activity (CLASI-A) score [Part B (ROW)] in participants with active SCLE and/or CCLE with or without systemic manifestations and refractory and/or intolerant to antimalarials. The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the efficacy of BIIB059 in reducing SCLE and/or CCLE disease activity by CLA-IGA-R, CLASI-A; to evaluate additional efficacy parameters of BIIB059 in reducing SCLE and/or CCLE disease activity; safety; tolerability; and immunogenicity of BIIB059 [Parts A and B].
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of mezigdomide (CC-92480), bortezomib and dexamethasone (MeziVd) versus pomalidomide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (PVd) in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who received between 1 to 3 prior lines of therapy and who have had prior lenalidomide exposure.
The purpose of this study is to compare efficacy of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab (MK-4280A) with physician's choice chemotherapy of bendamustine or gemcitabine in participants with PD-(L)1-refractory, relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin Lymphoma. The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab. The primary study hypotheses are that coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab is superior to physician's choice chemotherapy with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
