There are about 4958 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Mexico. 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.
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), formerly known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a major global public health concern, is commonly associated with obesity, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. MASLD is currently the most common cause of chronic liver disease affecting about 80% of people with obesity, ranging from simple fat deposits in the liver to Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH), cellular injury, advanced fibrosis, cirrhosis, or hepatocellular carcinoma. Patients with MASH are also at risk for cardiovascular disease and mortality. There is no universally approved medication for MASH. Weight loss remains the cornerstone of MASH treatment. Patients meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria and who give informed consent will be enrolled in the trial and undergo the baseline liver biopsy (if none available). Approximately 120 patients with MASH and liver fibrosis (F1-F4 in baseline liver biopsy) will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to metabolic surgery or medical treatment (incretin-based therapies ± other medical therapies for MASH) and followed for 2 years at which time a repeat liver biopsy will be performed for the assessment of the primary end point.
The main purpose of this study is to determine if combining tirzepatide with the mibavademab will result in more weight loss in adult participants than tirzepatide alone. The study will last about 72 weeks and may include up to 19 visits.
This study examined immediate postoperative complications in patients undergoing various bariatric surgeries, aiming to evaluate the safety and efficacy of these interventions. Conducted at specialized high-volume bariatric surgery centers in Tijuana, Mexico. Predominantly female patients with severe obesity underwent procedures like sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Immediate complications were rare, occurring in only 0.38% of patients, with bleeding being the most common issue. Surgical reintervention within 48 hours was required in 0.33% of cases. The study's low complication rate suggests that surgeon expertise is crucial in minimizing risks and improving postoperative outcomes in bariatric surgery.
Background: Despite the use of parenteral nutrition cycling (PNC) in neonatal intensive care units (NICU), there is limited evidence regarding the benefits in relation to the nutrición parenteral total (NPT) in term and late preterm infants. The recommendations from the recently published Latin American Society of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Pediatric Nutrition guidelines are substantially different in this area, and surveys have reported variations in clinical practice. The aim of this randomised controlled trial (RCT) is to evaluate the benefits and risks of PNC AND parenteral nutrition total (NPT) in term and late preterm infants.
This is a phase I clinical study evaluating the safety and tolerability of PRO-231 ophthalmic solution through the incidence of unexpected adverse events, incidence of conjunctival hyperemia and chemosis, changes in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA), changes in ocular surface integrity, compared to VIGAMOXI®.
The aim of this study was to present a comparative evaluation of the long-term efficacy of fluoride varnish( Flúor protector), Clinpro™ White Varnish and pastes containing CPP-ACP in the remineralization of creamy-white and yellow brown defects in incisors and permanent first molars with Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) in schoolchildren 6-12 years-old in Mexico.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of golcadomide in combination with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) chemotherapy vs placebo in combination with R-CHOP chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated high-risk large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of retatrutide compared with placebo in participants with Type 2 Diabetes and inadequate glycemic control. The study will last about 11 months and may include up to 11 visits.
A fundamental strategy to improve adherence to nutritional treatment in patients with chronic kidney disease is the implementation of educational programs. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of a multidisciplinary educational program on dietary adherence, nutritional knowledge, nutritional status, metabolic control and quality of life in patients with chronic kidney disease, predialysis, peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis. A randomized clinical trial will be carried out, in which patients who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to three possible groups: predialysis educational intervention, dialysis educational intervention and control group. At the initial visit, the nutritional status will be evaluated by means of anthropometric parameters, screening and dynamometry, the biochemical parameters of interest will be extracted from the clinical record, nutritional knowledge and quality of life will be evaluated, and the diet will be explained. In the second visit, adherence to the diet will be evaluated and the food registry will be carried out. In the intervention groups, the educational program will begin with a duration of five months. Patients will come twice a month to the hospital to participate in the educational sessions and attend group psychology sessions. After completion of the educational program, the same measurements as at the beginning of the study will be carried out in the three groups.
Chronic GVHD (cGVHD) is a predominant cause of mortality and disability not related to relapse; it occurs in 30 to 70% of patients. The majority of patients with cGVHD present with ocular involvement with a reported incidence of 40-60%. Symptoms can range from mild dry eye syndrome to severe epithelial defects that can generate corneal perforation and loss of vision. The most accepted pharmacological modality is the topical application of cyclosporine A; on the other hand, tacrolimus has shown greater immunosuppressive power when used in ocular GVHD. However, this effectiveness is limited since by the time the manifestations appear, there is already permanent damage to the lacrimal gland due to the lymphocytic infiltration; so it is necessary to use a prevention strategy before these manifestations appear. Previously, the employment of ocular cyclosporine drops as ocular GVHD prophylaxis was assessed to evaluate safety and effectiveness, showing that it is well tolerated and can limit the appearance of severe dry eye manifestations in a small group of patients. The purpose of this work is to compare the two modalities currently accepted for the treatment of the disease, but in a prophylactic way; topical ciclosporin A against topical tacrolimus, to determine the safety and efficiency of each of them as a preventive measure to limit the risk of developing the appearance of ocular cGVHD and the permanent consequences that this generates.
