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.
Nowadays, no single drug is approved to treat rheumatoid arthritis-related interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD). The medical management of this clinical condition is empirical and controversial. There is preliminary data that tofacitinib may have a beneficial effect in treating RA-ILD. Tofacitinib may have a double role in treating RA-ILD: treat RA disease activity and an anti-fibrotic possible impact. Moreover, tofacitinib may be used as monotherapy for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) This is a phase IIa clinical trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of tofacitinib in RA-ILD patients.
Prediabetes is the term used to describe the condition where blood glucose level is higher than normal but lower than the diagnosis criteria of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This condition confers a high risk for the development of T2DM and other diseases. Prediabetes could be reversible with lifestyle modifications, which include medical-nutrition therapy. Within these modifications, a healthy diet high in fiber and sources of alpha-linolenic acid is recommended. Flaxseed is a seed that is considered a functional food because it can provide health benefits due to its high content of fiber, alpha-linolenic acid, and lignans, these components could improve glycemic control in prediabetes patients by different mechanisms. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of flaxseed on glycemic control in prediabetic adults.
Through this randomized controlled clinical trial, we aim to identify whether there is a difference in the incidence of 24 hour pneumothorax after chest tube removal, in two blindly randomized groups of patients: The first group with chest tube clamping 6 hours prior to removal, and the second group there will be no chest tube clamping. The data will be prospectively collected from patient records from the National Institute of Respiratory Diseases Ismael Cosío Villegas.
The aim of the study is to compare the effect of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) versus treatment with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), in patients with diagnosis of Functional Neurological Non Epileptic Seizure Disorder (PNES).
We investigated the use of a copper sulfate eye drop (IVMED-80) for the treatment of keratoconus. Preliminary laboratory data shows that the addition of copper sulfate increase crosslinking of the structural proteins of the cornea thereby halting the progressing corneal thinning and bulging seen in keratoconus. We conducted a Phase 1/2a study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of a 6-week and a 16-week regimen using IVMED-80 and studied its impact on ocular safety and the change/progression in patients' vision and clinical measurements.
Randomized, single-blind, single-center, non-inferiority clinical trial to compare target lesion failure (TLF) at 12 months in high bleeding risk patients who underwent elective coronary percutaneous intervention with a zotarolimus eluting stent versus a sirolimus eluting stent and short Dual Antiplatelet Therapy (DAPT).
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of oral belzutifan (MK-6482) plus intravenous (IV) pembrolizumab (MK-3475) compared to placebo plus pembrolizumab, in the adjuvant treatment of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC) post nephrectomy. The primary study hypothesis is that belzutifan plus pembrolizumab is superior to placebo plus pembrolizumab with respect to disease-free survival (DFS).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and antidrug antibody (ADA) response for MEDI8897 in healthy late preterm and term infants who are 35 weeks or greater gestational age and entering their first RSV season.
This study is open to adults with bronchiectasis. People can join the study if they produce sputum and have a history of flare-ups (also called exacerbations). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1291583 helps people with bronchiectasis. Participants are put into 4 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in groups 1, 2, and 3 get different doses of BI 1291583. Participants in group 4 get placebo. Placebo tablets look like BI 1291583 tablets, but do not contain any medicine. Participants take the tablets once a day. Participants are in the study for between 6 months and 1 year. During this time, they visit the study site about 10 times and get about 5 phone calls from the site staff. The doctors document when participants experience flare-ups during the study. The time to the first flare-ups is compared between the treatment groups. Doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
Patients with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA) show autoantibodies that indicate an autoimmune pathogenesis. Glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies (GADA) are most prevalent islet autoantibodies in European patients with LADA. In this sense, it is considered that it is sufficient to determine GADA to identify subjects with LADA from patients with T2D for research purposes. Therefore, the aim was to investigated the presence of GADA in serum of subjects with T2D and its relationship with clinical criteria, metabolic control, drug treatment, and diabetes complications to identify possible patients with LADA in a hospital in southeastern Mexico is worthwhile. The sample was recruited at the Diabetes Clinic of the Regional Hospital of High Specialty "Dr. Gustavo A. Rovirosa Pérez", in the period from January 2020 to May 2021. The diagnosis was based in accordance with World Health Organization (WHO, 1999) criteria. Inclusion criteria: 1) patients previously diagnosed with T2D, 2) absence of insulin requirement for at least 6 months after diagnosis, 3) > 30 and < 50 years old at diabetes diagnosis, 4) BMI < 40 kg/m2, 5) subjects who agreed to participate in the study and signed the informed consent before the interview. Serum GADA and other biochemical concentrations were determined by an enzymatic immunoassay method (Human Anti-Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase ELISA Kit; MyBioSource).
