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 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tiragolumab in combination with atezolizumab and atezolizumab monotherapy in patients with programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive cervical cancer (metastatic and/or recurrent).
70 couples (married or cohabiting) will be recruited across 5 countries (12-18 in each country: Argentina, Costa Rica, Guatemala, México, and Spain). After their entry into the study is confirmed, couples will be randomly allocated into one of two groups: intervention or control (no intervention). In each country, both groups will have equal number of couples. Couples in the intervention group will receive 20 sessions of Emotionally Focused couple Therapy (EFT). Couples in the control group will receive no intervention during the study period (they will receive a shorter intervention after the trial is over). Participants of both groups will fill questionnaires before allocation, during the intervention period and after the intervention period. The main outcomes will be couple attachment, couple satisfaction and dyadic adjustment. The original timeline for the study was to start in Argentina and Guatemala in February 2020, and the remaining countries in September 2020. The study started in February 2020 for Argentina and Guatemala, but in April 2020 the process was postponed due to mobility constrains during covid-19 crisis. During these two months, the process remained in the recruitment phase. Therefore, couples were not randomly assigned. Due to an improvement in the pandemic situation, the study started in Spain in September 2021.We expect the remaining countries will start during 2022. The study period for each couple will be around 6 months.
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 an international, randomized, open-label, Phase 3 study designed to evaluate whether the potent and selective RET inhibitor, pralsetinib, improves outcomes when compared to a platinum chemotherapy-based regimen chosen by the Investigator from a list of standard of care treatments, as measured primarily by progression free survival (PFS), for participants with RET fusion-positive metastatic NSCLC who have not previously received systemic anticancer therapy for metastatic disease.
Post-authorisation, multicentric, observational, retrospective and prospective study to assess quality of care of sarcoma patients in expert and non-expert centers by analysing correlation of quality items and outcomes such as relapse free survival, overall survival, percentage of amputation, etc. Expert pathology peer review will be performed to detect differences between expert and non-expert centers as well as differences in treatment and patient prognosis. Tumor samples of 4 types of sarcoma would also be included in translational research to detect biomarkers and produce preclinical models.
This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of ipatasertib in combination with atezolizumab and paclitaxel in locally advanced or metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) previously untreated in this setting.
The use of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a noninvasive test for breast cancer monitoring throughout the course of the disease
This study aims to show that giving high dose, intravenous vitamin C in addition to standard care to burned critically ill patients will be associated with less organ dysfunction, improved survival and a quicker rate of recovery. In this study, all patients will receive standard care and of the patients will also receive high dose intravenous vitamin C, while the other half of patients will receive placebo.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant therapy with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab compared with active surveillance in participants with completely resected or ablated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are at high risk for disease recurrence.
This study is a prospective, observational, randomized, controlled, paired eye, subject-masked design.
