There are about 244 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Costa Rica. 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 clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (sisunatovir). Sisunatovir is developed as potential treatment of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) infections. This study will assess sisunatovir as compared to placebo in infants aged 1 month to 36 months who are hospitalized with RSV lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI). A placebo looks like the study medicine but does not contain any active medicine in it. This study will be conducted in 3 parts: In Part A participants aged 6 months to 3 years will be given a single dose of 2.5 mg/kg of sisunatovir in Cohort 1. In Cohort 2, participants age 1 month to 6 months will receive a single dose of 2 mg/kg of sisunatovir only after the completion of Cohort 1. 12-24 participants will be enrolled in Part A In Part B participants age 1 month to 36 months will receive sisunatovir or placebo dosed every 12 hours for 5 days. Doses for part B will be determined after the completion of Part A. 24-40 participants will be enrolled in Part B. The dose regimen for Part C will be determined after the completion of Part B. Approximately 120 participants age 1 month to 36 months will receive either sisunatovir or placebo. To participate in this study participants must meet the following criteria: 1. Age 1 month to 36 months 2. Weight ≥ 3.5 kg 3. Diagnosis of LRTI 4. Diagnosis of RSV 5. Hospitalization due to RSV LRTI
This is a multicenter, multinational, open-label study of VTS-270 to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of VTS-270 (2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin) in participants transitioning from Study VTS301 (Parts A/B [NCT02534844] and Part C [NCT04958642]) with neurologic manifestations of Niemann-Pick Type C1 (NPC1) disease.
Helicobacter pylori is a common bacterial infection. It can lead to severe stomach problems, including stomach cancer. Researchers want to look at samples of the bacteria. These H. pylori strains will be taken from chronically infected people. They want to identify the genetic and epigenetic differences in H. pylori strains. This could help predict which people who get infected with the bacteria will get stomach cancer. This could lead to the cancer being detected earlier. It could also mean less people get stomach cancer. Objectives: To study genetic variations of H. pylori strains based on samples from chronically infected people. To identify the features of strains that might lead to severe stomach problems or stomach cancer. Eligibility: People ages 30-70 years who need an upper endoscopy or who were recently diagnosed with stomach cancer Design: Participants will be screened by the doctor who does their procedure and a study nurse. Participants who have endoscopy will have ~6 biopsies removed. These are tissue samples. They are about the size of a grain of rice. Participants will allow the study team to access reports from their stomach exam. Participants with stomach cancer will donate some of the tissue that will be removed during their clinical care. They will allow the study team to access reports of their surgery. They will also allow them to access the microscope slides of their stomach.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of crenezumab versus placebo in participants with prodromal to mild AD. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive either intravenous (IV) infusion of crenezumab or placebo every 4 weeks (Q4W) for 100 weeks. The final efficacy and safety assessment will be performed 52 weeks after the last crenezumab dose. Participants will then have the option to enter the Open Label Extension (OLE) study if eligible. Participants who do not enter the OLE study will have additional follow-up visits at 16 and 52 weeks after the last dose, primarily for safety and also for limited efficacy assessments.
The purpose of this study is to assess the contraceptive efficacy of the etonogestrel + 17β-estradiol (ENG-E2) vaginal ring in women between 18 and 35 years of age based on the number of in-treatment pregnancies as expressed by the Pearl Index (PI). The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of ENG-E2 vaginal ring. The levonorgestrel-ethinyl estradiol (LNG-EE) 150/30 μg combined oral contraceptive (COC) will be used as the active comparator.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the Clostridium difficile vaccine to prevent primary symptomatic C. difficile infection (CDI) in participants at risk for CDI where there is a substantial unmet medical need. Primary objective: - To assess the efficacy of the C. difficile vaccine in preventing the onset of symptomatic primary CDI confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in adult participants aged >= 50 years who are at risk for CDI and have received at least 1 injection. Secondary Objectives: Efficacy: - To assess prevention of symptomatic PCR-confirmed primary CDI cases after 3 injections administered at 0, 7, and 30 days. - To assess prevention of symptomatic PCR-confirmed primary CDI cases after completion of at least 2 injections. Immunogenicity: - To describe the immunogenicity to toxin A and toxin B at specific time points in a subset of participant and in participants with CDI at Day 0 and Day 60. Safety: - To describe the safety profile of all participants who received at least 1 injection.
This protocol is for subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension and is the first of 3 studies forming the Sitaxsentan efficacy and safety trial with Randomized Prospective Assessment of Adding Sildenafil (SR-PAAS) program.
This single arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous Mircera for the correction and maintenance of hemoglobin levels in predialysis patients with renal anemia who are not currently treated with ESA. Eligible patients will receive monthly subcutaneous injections at an initial recommended dose of 1.2 micrograms/kg. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether S-1 increases overall survival when compared to 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer previously treated with a gemcitabine-based therapy. The secondary objectives are to compare: progression free survival, overall response rate, clinical benefit and improvement in tumor related symptoms and also to assess overall safety and pharmacokinetics of S-1.
The objective is to evaluate whether once weekly subcutaneous (SC) injection of idrabiotaparinux is at least as efficient to prevent clots in brain and in the other organs than oral international normalized ratio (INR) adjusted-dose warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).
