There are about 189 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Ecuador. 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.
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.
This study aims to compare the efficacy, side effects profile and acceptability of a single dose of 600mcg misoprostol taken orally compared to standard surgical treatment as per local protocols for the treatment of incomplete abortion.
To compare the efficacy of Generex Oral-lyn™ RapidMist™ System and standard regular human insulin therapy as measured by HbA1c, in type-1 diabetes mellitus subjects on BID NPH intermediate acting insulin therapy.
The pain relief, safety, and tolerability of valdecoxib 40 mg once daily compared with diclofenac 75 mg twice daily for acute low back pain was studied. The effect of valdecoxib on the patient's level of disability and quality of life was also studied.
The purpose of this study is to determine the percentage of patients who would reach a cholesterol goal after atorvastatin treatment.
The goals of this trial are to determine the prognostic significance of an elevated level of inflammatory blood markers in people who have experienced small subcortical strokes and who are enrolled in the Secondary Prevention of Small Subcortical Strokes (SPS3) trial.
This study was a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter international clinical trial conducted to investigate the use of pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel as first-line treatment for participants with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Participants could have received one prior hormonal treatment for MBC. Participants may have received systemic breast cancer treatment in the neo-adjuvant or adjuvant setting, provided that the participant had experienced a disease-free interval (DFI) of greater than or equal to (≥)12 months from completion of adjuvant systemic treatment (excluding hormonal therapy) to metastatic diagnosis. Participants may have received trastuzumab and/or a taxane during the neo-adjuvant or adjuvant treatment. Participants were randomized in 1:1 ratio to receive either pertuzumab or placebo, along with trastuzumab and docetaxel once every 3 weeks (q3w), during the treatment phase of the study until investigator-assessed radiographic or clinical progressive disease, unmanageable toxicity, or study termination. Participants in the Placebo arm were not allowed to receive open-label pertuzumab after discontinuation from study treatment. However, if any analysis of overall survival had met the predefined criteria for statistical significance, participants in the Placebo arm still on treatment were offered the option to receive open-label pertuzumab in addition to other study medications.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double blind, double dummy, comparative, active-controlled trial designed to assess the analgesic activity and safety of intravenous doses of parecoxib 40 mg relative to intravenous doses of ketoprofen 100 mg for the treatment of renal colic in outpatients presenting at emergency room settings. This trial is designed to show non-inferiority of parecoxib related to ketoprofen.
This single arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of Mircera when administered once monthly, subcutaneously or intravenously, for the maintenance of hemoglobin levels in dialysis patients with chronic renal anemia. Patients currently receiving maintenance treatment with epoetin alfa will receive monthly injections of Mircera with a starting dose (120, 200 or 360 micrograms) derived from the dose of epoetin alfa they were receiving in the week preceding study start. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
The propose of this study is to evaluate if zinc given as an adjunct to standard treatment of severe pneumonia in young children shortens the duration and reduces treatment failure, and if these effects are pathogen-dependant.
