There are about 5012 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.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if a customizable support material allows to improve the knowledge about the stage and subtype of the disease, as well as the indicated treatments, in comparison with a non-customizable support material among patients with breast cancer. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the impact of delivering a customizable support material so that patients with breast cancer know and remember the stage and subtype of their disease, as well as the indicated treatments, compared to non-customizable support material? Participants in the intervention group will be provided customizable support material while those in the standard group will receive a non-customizable material.
A clinical study of propranolol for the treatment of Kaposi Sarcoma in children and adults. This study will be an open-label single armed treatment trial that will test the effectiveness and the safety of treating Kaposi Sarcoma with propranolol.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of using a whole food plant-based diet in the reduction of cardiovascular risk related to HIV in people who live with HIV infection. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does a whole food plant-based diet, nonrestrictive in calories and low in fat, reduce the cardiovascular risk associated with HIV infection in people with HIV infection? - Does the whole food plant-based diet permit achievement goals in specific metabolic markers of cardiovascular risk (such as Cholesterol, C Reactive Protein)? Participants will follow a non-calorie restricted, low fat, whole food plant-based diet for 8 weeks Researchers will compare standard nutritional care to see if there is a difference in the main outcomes
As the HGT-HIT-046 (NCT01506141) and SHP609-302 (NCT02412787) studies will be closed, this post-trial access (PTA) program provides TAK-609 to participants in these studies for whom the benefit:risk ratio of continued treatment with idursulfase-IT remains positive.
Neurocognitive disorders have a growing prevalence and impact on public health; their main etiology corresponds to Alzheimer's disease. To date, there is no treatment that can reverse neuronal damage in these pathologies. However, several non-invasive neuromodulation techniques, including transcranial magnetic stimulation, have been proposed as a viable option to halt the progression of the disease. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive, nonpainful neurostimulation technique with a high safety profile that has been successfully used to improve cognitive function in subjects with mild cognitive impairment. Our research group conducted a study that showed that the use of low-intensity TMS at gamma frequencies is a safe, non-invasive method with minimal adverse effects. The present protocol proposes a new randomized, double-blind, crossover trial to be conducted in memory clinic patients over 65 years of age who meet the diagnosis of mild dementia due to Alzheimer's disease. The main objective is to evaluate the short-term cognitive and electroencephalographic changes produced by low-intensity, gamma-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation. A TMS device that emits a pulsed magnetic field at a frequency of 40 Hz, with a maximum magnitude of 150 gauss for 45 minutes will be used as an intervention. The intervention will be of two types, real or simulated, and will be applied twice to each patient, that is, in one session they will receive the real stimulation and in another the simulated one. In addition, during the sessions, cognitive and electroencephalographic measurements will be taken before, during and after each intervention. Each of these stimulation sessions should be separated by at least one week.
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HSCT) is a worldwide recognized therapy for several hematologic malignancies; a modality extensively used around the world due to its effectivity; however, an HLA-matched sibling or unrelated donor is not always available, because of diverse factors such as: ethnic minorities and multiethnic families, socio-economic status, among others. This problem has led to an expansion of the donor pool to include alternative donor sources such as HLA-haploidentical (Haplo) relatives, HLA-mismatched unrelated donors, and HLA-matched or mismatched cord blood. In the Hematology and Internal Medicine Center of Clinica Ruiz, we have seen that 50% reduced doses of post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (25 mg/Kg) on days +3 and +4 have a favorable effect on patient's survival rates compared to the full 50 mg/Kg doses. Haplo-HSCT can be conducted safely on an outpatient basis, using peripheral blood stem cells, this leading into substantial decreases in the costs. Outpatient-based Haplo-HSCT has turned into the solution of the HSCT most frequent problems in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC): Cost and donor availability. The high dose administration of PT-Cy after transplant can lead into hematological and cardiac, toxicities. There is preliminary information about diminished doses of PTCy, might being equally effective in the prevention of GVHD and substantially less toxic.
This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability profile of a dwell time (bath) of 24 hours using a 500 ml sodium-free peritoneal dialysis solution based on 30% icodextrin and 10% dextrose in patients with chronic kidney failure undergoing peritoneal dialysis
Obesity and metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) accelerate the appearance of arterial stiffness due to inflammatory and oxidative stress mechanisms producing increased vascular tone and increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. This arterial stiffness can be measured through pulse wave velocity (PWV). Obesity and MAFLD have multifactorial components, high fructose diet and sedentary lifestyle are causing the onset of these diseases earlier in life such as in adolescence. L-citrulline, a non-protein amino acid, has shown positive effects on improving nitric oxide synthesis which improves endothelial function, as well as results on the metabolic profile in MAFLD. High intensity interval training (HIIT) has also shown benefits on endothelial function improving the metabolic profile of people with obesity and MAFLD with the advantage of decreasing the time required to perform the physical activity. A clinical study will be conducted with 45 adolescents (15-19 years old) with MAFLD and the participants will be divided into 3 groups to perform HIIT and supplement with citrulline or placebo for 12 weeks.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare an antiinflammatory and environmentally friendly dietary strategy (AIA-D) designed based on the planetary health diet recommendations translated to the regional context and including nutrients related to antiinflammatory responses with an active control diet based on general healthy diet recommendations (CONV-D) in adults from 18 to 50 years of age with obesity (body mass index ≥30 kg/m2). The main questions it aims to answer are: - If the intervention with AIA-D will cause a significant decrease at the end of the intervention (six weeks) in lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) compared to CONV-D. - If intervention with AIA-D will cause a significant increase at the end of the intervention (six weeks) in the relative abundance of two specific bacteria genera (AM and FP) when compared to CONV-D. Participants will: - Sign the informed consent. - Provide two peripheral blood samples (taken by our trained professionals). - Provide two samples of feces. - Allow anthropometric (body weight, height, hip and waist circumferences) blood pressure measurements on two occasions. - Respond to 24 h dietary recall on two occasions. - Attend the 1-hour group sessions requested (three for AIA-D and one for CONV-D). - Follow the dietary recommendations provided. - Be willing to participate in social media groups to receive information and follow up during the six weeks of the intervention. Researchers will compare an antiinflammatory and environmentally friendly strategy (AIA-D) with an active control diet (CONV-D) based on general healthy diet recommendations to see if AIA-D decreases metabolic endotoxemia measured through LBP serum levels and increase the relative abundance of AM and FP, compared to CONV-D.
