There are about 1933 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Colombia. 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 study is to determine the effect of ixazomib citrate maintenance therapy on progression-free survival (PFS), compared to placebo, in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) who have had a response (complete response [CR], very good partial response [VGPR], or partial response [PR]) to induction therapy followed by high-dose therapy (HDT) and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT).
Observational study in the routine clinical practice setting to evaluate the short and long term safety profile of Radium-223 in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer patients and to evaluate the risk of developing second primary cancers.
This is 2-part, randomized, open label, multi-center, parallel group, phase III study comparing the efficacy and safety of LGX818 plus MEK162 to vemurafenib and LGX818 monotherapy in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma with BRAF V600 mutation. A total of approximately 900 patients will be randomized. Part 1: Patients will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of 3 treatment arms: 1. LGX818 450 mg QD plus MEK162 45 mg BID (denoted as Combo 450 arm) 2. LGX818 300 mg QD monotherapy (denoted as LGX818 arm) or 3. vemurafenib 960 mg BID (denoted as vemurafenib arm) Part 2: Patients will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio to one of the 2 treatment arms: 1. LGX818 300 mg QD plus MEK162 45 mg BID (denoted as Combo 300 arm) or 2. LGX818 300 mg QD monotherapy (denoted as LGX818 arm)
Human periodontitis is a group of highly prevalent oral inflammatory diseases and infections with relatively easy treatment and preventive features. The present study is aimed to determine if treating human individuals with chronic periodontitis, along with the use of antibiotics, reduces cardiovascular risk marker (HsPCR) and also intends to identify if severity of periodontitis could be associated with a raise of systemic inflammatory biomarkers on baseline.
HPV testing for primary cervical cancer screening of women over 30 years of age is likely to become the standard of care in the near future in many areas of the world. Its high sensitivity can significantly improve the effectiveness of screening programs and its prolonged negative predictive value can allow extension of screening intervals. However, a single HPV test has low positive predictive value and can lead to unnecessary workup and over-treatment and generate unnecessary distress. This multi-centric study will screen 50,000 women with HPV testing and compare several triage approaches that can follow HPV testing in order to make an HPV-based screening programme efficient, affordable and sustainable.
The main purpose of the study was to investigate whether nilotinib treatment can be safely suspended with no recurrence of CML in selected patients who responded optimally on this treatment
This 2-arm, randomized, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab emtansine versus trastuzumab as adjuvant therapy in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer who have residual tumor present in the breast or axillary lymph nodes following preoperative therapy. Eligible patients will be randomized to receive either trastuzumab emtansine 3.6 mg/kg or trastuzumab 6 mg/kg intravenously every 3 weeks for 14 cycles. Radiotherapy and/or hormone therapy will be given in addition if indicated.
Overactive bladder is defined as a syndrome composed of urgency, increased urinary frequency, and sometimes urinary incontinence; its etiology may be characterized as neurogenic or non-neurogenic (i.e., idiopathic). This illness has a great impact in quality of life and one of the available treatments is the injection of Botulinum Toxin. This study aims to review the efficacy and safety of type-A Botulinum Toxin in the management of Idiopathic Overactive Bladder. A systematic search was performed in MEDLINE, EMBASE, CENTRAL and LILACS, and the controlled randomized clinical trials were chosen to review with the CONSORT criteria by independent reviewers. Outcomes analyzed were the efficacy of the intervention for relieving the symptoms (urgency, frequency and urgency incontinence), adverse events to treatment, change in quality of life and urodynamic measures.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and device performance of the Mitralign system ("MPAS") to treat functional mitral valve regurgitation.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) using the Medtronic Specify® 5-6-5 multicolumn surgical lead plus optimal medical management (OMM) versus OMM alone in patients suffering from predominant low back pain due to failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS).
