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.
Researchers want to learn more about the treatments doctors choose to treat heart failure. Heart failure means the heart isn't pumping as well as it should be. Heart failure can lead to other serious medical conditions, and it can lead to hospitalization or death. There are different types of treatments available for people who have heart failure, and these work in different ways. In this study, the researchers will collect information about Colombian patients who have heart failure. The main purpose of this study is to identify patterns in the treatments that doctors first prescribe to heart failure patients in Columbia. To do this, the researchers will review information from the patients' medical records and from a drug-dispensing database. The study will include adult patients who have been diagnosed with heart failure in Columbia from June 1st, 2019 to May 31st, 2020. There will be no required visits, treatments, or procedures in this study. The researchers will collect information about the treatments the patients have been prescribed by their own doctors.
The purpose of this study is to establish the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of remibrutinib (LOU064) in adult participants suffering from chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines in comparison to placebo.
Currently, Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) has two treatment options: hysterectomy (completely removing the uterus) and partial myometrial resection (resecting the part of the uterus affected by this pathology). The present study is a feasibility study of a multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial to be carried out in 3 health institutions. Patients who meet the inclusion criteria, after signing the informed consent, will be taken to the surgical procedure and before the start of the procedure they will be randomized to one of the two interventions, hysterectomy or partial myometrial resection, intra-surgical clinical outcomes will be explored and a follow-up will be carried out during the immediate post-surgical period (72 hours), in 7 to 12 days and at 42 days postpartum. A sample size of 60 patients is estimated among the 3 health institutions, with an approximate duration of the study of 24 months.
ACTION Teens is a multinational cross-sectional survey-based study. The study consists of a quantitative online survey to be conducted among three groups of respondents in ten countries worldwide. The respondent population will include Adolescents Living with Obesity (ALwO), Caregivers of ALwO, and HCPs treating adolescents who have obesity. The goal of this study is to provide insights to drive awareness around the needs of adolescents living with obesity and their caregivers, as well as to identify key areas of misalignment between adolescents, their caregivers and the HCPs involved in obesity treatment and management. ACTION Teens is designed to generate evidence to identify and address these challenges on both a global and local level, extending the insights from the previously conducted ACTION-IO study.
A Multicenter Retrospective Study to understand the clinical characteristics, treatment pathway and resource utilization for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia A retrospective, multi-centre, observational study to describe disease characteristics, treatment patterns, treatment-related outcomes, and resource utilization for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) patients in multiple international regions
Determine the prevalence of homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene mutations in participants with mCRPC in Latin America (LatAm) between February 2021 and January 2022.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether PF-07321332/ritonavir is safe and effective for the treatment of adults who are ill with COVID-19 and do not need to be in the hospital, but are at an increased risk of developing severe illness. Throughout the study period, provision will be made to allow study visits to be conducted at a participant's home or another non-clinic location if available. The total study duration is up to 24 weeks.
Randomized crossover clinical trial in which a group of runners are ask to complete a 15 minutes standardized physical test on a treadmill. The same group of participants are randomized to the order in which they use a facemask (surgical mask, polyester reusable cloth mask) or no mask, while running. Each test, according to the type of mask or no mask, are held on different dates. Heart rate, oxygen saturation and shortness of breath are measured every 3 minutes during the test.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in critically ill patients. Multiple studies have reported evidence that the main cause of ARF is sepsis, as part of the Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome: up to 50% of septic patients develop acute renal failure. RRT continues to be the standard management for severe acute renal failure, especially in its continuous modality and applied to the septic patient, generally with hemodynamic instability. The presence of SA-AKI (sepsis-associated acute kidney injury) is associated with short-term and long-term adverse events, which include: prolonged hospital stay, the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD), increased cardiovascular risk and increased risk of death. Its presence is even considered a factor with an independent association with mortality and has a higher fatality rate than ARF developed by another etiology. Different clinical studies have been developed based on the addition of hemoadsorption membranes to RRT that, although they have not shown significant differences in the reduction of mortality, have impacted secondary outcomes such as the reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines, decrease in vasopressor support requirements, decrease in serum lactate, significant improvement in the SOFA score, improvement in oxygenation indices and decrease in hospital stay. These benefits are presented without reports of adverse events associated with its use. The oXiris® filter was recently developed: a single high permeability membrane capable of removing cytokines and endotoxins during renal support with the addition of antithrombotic properties. The experience of its use is limited to in vitro studies, case reports, retrospective cohorts and an RCT that provide consistent evidence of its benefits. A longitudinal, bi-directional, observational analytical study is proposed. A case-control study nested in a dynamic cohort will be developed to determine the effect of the use of hemofiltration with a cytokine removal filter (oXiris®) on the decrease in mortality at 28 days of patients with acute kidney injury induced by sepsis. (SA-AKI), as well as the dose of vasopressor support, oxygenation parameters and inflammatory markers.
The purpose of the study is to assess if the study medication (molnupiravir, MK-4482) will prevent symptomatic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in adults who live with someone with confirmed COVID-19 infection. This is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study; half of the study participants will receive molnupiravir twice daily by mouth and the other half will receive a placebo. The primary objectives of the study are to determine if molnupiravir prevents symptomatic COVID-19 disease and to evaluate its safety and tolerability. All participants who develop COVID-19 during the study are still eligible for any COVID-19 treatment recommended by their doctor.
