There are about 21071 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Spain. 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.
Colorectal cancer is the most frequent tumor in our environment if both sexes are considered together. Every year almost 800 cases are diagnosed in the districts of Tarragona. A little more than half of colorectal cancers are cured with surgery, with or without the addition of complementary treatments with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. Those who are not cured is because at the time of diagnosis the disease has already spread or they spread after having been treated surgically with curative intent. The purpose of the EarlyCRC project is to determine whether metabolites (substances of low molecular weight) can be found in the urine and stool of patients with colorectal cancer or polyps that can be easily and cheaply differentiated (urine or stool analysis) between the patients affected by colorectal cancer or polyps, from healthy individuals. For the identification of these possible metabolites, the urine analysis will be performed using the usual techniques in metabolomics, which studies the existing metabolites in biological processes.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with specific genetic changes called human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) mutations. Advanced NSCLC is a group of lung cancers that have spread to nearby tissues or to other parts of the body or that are unlikely to be cured or controlled with currently available treatments. HER2 is a protein that helps cells to grow and divide. A damage (also called mutation) to the building plans (genes) for this protein in cancer cells leads to a production of abnormal HER2 and therefore abnormal cell growth and division. The study treatment, BAY 2927088, is expected to block the mutated HER2 protein which may stop the spread of NSCLC. The main purpose of this study is to learn how well BAY 2927088 works and how safe it is compared with standard treatment, in participants who have advanced NSCLC with specific genetic changes called HER2 mutations. The study participants will receive one of the study treatments: - BAY 2927088 twice every day as a tablet by mouth, or - Standard treatment in cycles of 21 days via infusion ("drip") into the vein. The treatment will continue for as long as participants benefit from it without any severe side effects or until they or their doctor decide to stop the treatment. During the study, the doctors and their study team will: - take imaging scans, including CT, PET, MRI, and X-rays, of different parts of the body to study the spread of cancer - check the overall health of the participants by performing tests such as blood and urine tests, and checking - heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG) - perform pregnancy tests for women - ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective if they think it is related or not to the study treatment.
This Study is a first in human clinical study addressed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel intra-corneal nitinol device (Investigational Device; GROSSO® implant) for the treatment of advanced keratoconus disease of the eye.
The goal of this observational study is to describe non motor symptoms in a prospective study of patients with Parkinson's disease associated to glucocerebrosidase (GBA-PD) mutations. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Do GBA-PD patients have a greater burden of non motor symptoms? - How do these non motor symptoms evolve during a prospective follow up of two years? - Are these non motor symptoms different from those that affect Parkinson's disease patients without glucocerebrosidase mutations (non GBA-PD), in prevalence, severity and type? - Do these non motor symptoms correlate with objective measures such as posturography or speed reaction tests? - Is there a test or combination of tests that can predict the appearance of early or severe non motor symptoms? For this reason researchers will compare the GBA-PD group of patients with a group of non mutated GBA Parkinson disease. Participants will undergo a neurological and neuropsychological evaluation with different tests in subsequent visits for a total of 2 years.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) can lead to psychological adjustments that impact the acceptance and management of this health condition, as well as the overall quality of life of patients, especially among the young. Therefore, there is a need for psychological interventions aimed at enhancing the psychological well-being of children and adolescents with T1D. The goal of this non-randomized controlled trial is to evaluate whether a combined intervention comprising mHealth (using an app) and face-to-face psychological sessions based on Barlow's protocol and cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques (CBT) is effective in enhancing psychological well-being in children and adolescents with T1D. The main hypotheses are: - H1: The primary results expected to be obtained are a significant increase in psychological well-being, which means a decreased diabetes distress (DDS) (H1a) an increased subjective well-being (PANAS) (H1b) and a better self-efficacy for managing their emotions (RESE) (H1c). - H2: As secondary outcomes, it is also expected that the combined mHealth-CBT intervention would increase the level of positivity (P-Scale) (H2a), the self-esteem (RSES) (H2b) and the satisfaction with life (SWLS) (H2c).
The goal of this clinical trial is to study how physical exercise works when applied to patients diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the antiinflammatory and oxidative stress and neural mechanisms involved in the antidepressant effects of exercise? - How effective is a physical exercise program in MDD patients in real-life conditions? The experimental group will receive an exercise intervention as an add-on to their usual treatment (antidepressant treatment prescribed by the attending specialist). Researchers will compare to a control group, which will only receive standard treatment (antidepressant treatment prescribed by the attending specialist) and will be instructed to not change their usual physical activity. The aim is to see if a physical exercise intervention would induce a significant improvement in depressive symptoms and which mechanisms are responsible for this result.
The present observational study aims to determine the degree of adherence to the recommendations of clinical guidelines regarding the prevention of cardiovascular complications in patients hospitalized due to a cardiovascular event.
This project proposes the design, implementation, and evaluation of an online psycho-educational intervention program for families of adolescents with mental health problems.
This is a randomised, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled Phase IIa study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZD7798 in participants with moderate to severe Crohn's disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of nipocalimab compared with placebo in reducing the risk of fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT).
