There are about 1062 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Latvia. 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.
One-lung ventilation (OLV) with resting of the contralateral lung may be required to allow or facilitate thoracic surgery. However, OLV can result in severe hypoxemia, requiring a mechanical ventilation approach that is able to maintain adequate gas exchange, while protecting the lungs against postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs). During OLV, the use of lower tidal volumes is helpful to avoid over-distension, but can result in increased atelectasis and repetitive collapse-and-reopening of lung units, particularly at low levels of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Anesthesiologists inconsistently use PEEP and recruitment maneuvers (RM) in the hope that this may improve oxygenation and protect against PPC. Up to now, it is not known whether high levels of PEEP combined with RM are superior to lower PEEP without RM for protection against PPCs during OLV. Hypothesis: An intra-operative ventilation strategy using higher levels of PEEP and recruitment maneuvers, as compared to ventilation with lower levels of PEEP without recruitment maneuvers, prevents postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing thoracic surgery under standardized one-lung ventilation.
This study evaluates the effects of two doses of oral AQX-1125 on bladder pain and other urinary symptoms in subjects with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome. Participants will receive either 100 mg AQX-1125, 200 mg AQX-1125 or placebo for the first 12 weeks of the study. After 12 weeks, all participants will receive either 100 mg or 200 mg AQX-1125 for 52 weeks.
The purpose of this double blind randomized study is the evaluation of the safety and efficacy of the Moderato System. The Moderato implantable pulse generator is indicated for patients who have hypertension and also require a dual chamber pacemaker in order to reduce their blood pressure. The primary objectives of this study are to provide evidence of safety and clinical efficacy of the anti-hypertensive effects of the Moderato System. This will be accomplished by evaluating changes in blood pressure in an active treatment vs. a control patient population for a period of 6 months. The device will be considered to have a clinical effectiveness with regard to its anti-hypertension functions if there is a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in mean 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure in the treatment group compared to the control group.
This is a phase II randomised, double-blind, dose finding, repeat dose Phase II multicentre study of ODX for the treatment of patients with castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and skeletal metastases. The primary objective is to evaluate the relative change from baseline in response markers related to bone metabolism (alkaline phosphatase (B-ALP) and S P1NP) at 12 weeks of three different doses of ODX (3.0, 6.0 and 9.0 mg/kg ODX).
This is a multi-centre, multinational, prospective, non-interventional study in females with a diagnosis of moderate to severe uterine fibroids, and for whom a treatment with Esmya in a long term manner is planned, and in subjects who were previously exposed to UPA in the long term Phase III studies.
The purpose of this study was to assess efficacy, including inhibition of radiographic progression, and safety with upadacitinib versus placebo and versus an active comparator, adalimumab, in adults with with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are on a stable background of methotrexate (MTX and who have an inadequate response to MTX.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients undergoing coronary intervention that also require oral anticoagulation, treatment with the COBRA PzF stent plus 14-day dual anti-platelet therapy (DAPT) has higher safety and non-inferior outcomes for thrombo-embolic events than compared with standard FDA-approved drug eluting stent (DES) plus 3 or 6-month DAPT.
To assess the safety and performance of the PQ Bypass System to access, deliver guidewires and implant stent grafts for a percutaneous fem-pop bypass.
The primary hypothesis is that computed tomography (CT) is superior to invasive coronary angiography (ICA) concerning the primary endpoint MACE (MACE = major adverse cardiovascular event; defined as at least one of the following: cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and nonfatal stroke) after a maximum follow-up of 4 years, in other words, that CT will result in a significantly lower rate of MACE. Secondary outcomes include MICE (MICE = minor cardiovascular events), procedural complications, cost-effectiveness, radiation exposure, cross-over to CT or ICA, gender differences, and health-related quality of life.
This study is being performed as a post-approval safety study (PASS), per the Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA), to gather data on Translarna (ataluren) safety, effectiveness, and prescription patterns in routine clinical practice.
