There are about 359 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Panama. 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.
This is a survey which will be performed on a specific day (the "Screening Day") in Latin American ICUs. In eligible patients who receive enteral or parenteral nutrition a retrospective calculation of the "caloric deficit" will be performed. The caloric deficit is the difference between energy target of each patient and actually administered calories.
Scabies is an infestation of the skin by the human itch mite (Sarcoptes scabiei). Diagnosis of scabies is made based on clinical symptoms, such as nocturnal itching, and appearance and distribution of the rash. Definitive diagnosis includes the microscopic identification of the mite, mite eggs, or mite fecal matter in the skin. Topical permethrin is considered the drug of choice for the treatment of scabies. It is a synthetic pyrethroid that is safe for use in adults and children 2 months and older. This study will evaluate the therapeutic equivalence of a generic permethrin cream 5% to Elimite® in the Treatment of Scabies.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral capecitabine (Xeloda) versus 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), in combination with intravenous (IV) cisplatin, in participants with advanced and/or metastatic gastric cancer. The anticipated time on study treatment is at least 6 weeks and continued up to disease progression, and the target sample size is 300 individuals.
The primary purpose of the study is to quantify participants' demographic parameters, country standard therapies, treatment patterns and outcomes among participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), multiple myeloma (MM) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) in oncology concentration hospitals in Latin America.
This Phase II study will compare the efficacy and safety of obinutuzumab plus mycophenolate mofetil (MMF)/mycophenolic acid (MPA) with placebo plus MMF/MPA in participants with proliferative LN.
This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study designed to compare overall survival in participants with relapsed or refractory AML treated with idasanutlin in combination with cytarabine versus participants treated with placebo and cytarabine. Participants will receive induction treatment with idasanutlin/placebo and cytarabine (Cycle 1). Responding participants may continue to receive a maximum of further two cycles of consolidation (Cycle 2 and Cycle 3). Complete remission (CR), CR with incomplete platelet count recovery (CRp), overall remission rate (ORR), event-free survival (EFS) and percentage of participants with an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) will also be compared between treatment arms. This study will include participants with and without TP53 wild type (TP53 WT) mutations.
This study is to assess safety as defined by the frequency and severity of gastrointestinal (GI) perforation/fistula, GI-vaginal fistula and genitourinary (GU) fistula in participants treated with bevacizumab 15 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin, all repeated every 3 weeks, for recurrent, persistent or metastatic cervical cancer. In addition, this study will include evaluation of the overall safety profile of bevacizumab in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin in this setting, assessment of GI perforation/fistula, GI-vaginal fistula and GU fistula events over time, and evaluation of efficacy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate persistence of bactericidal antibodies for N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W, and Y and serogroup B test strains approximately 4 years after primary vaccination in subjects who previously received a 2-dose series of MenABCWY+Outer membrane Vesicles (OMV) or a single dose of MenACWY, to evaluate immune response against N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y and serogroup B test strains 30 days after a dose of MenABCWY+OMV in previously vaccinated subjects, and 30 days after a 2-dose series in vaccine-naive subjects of similar age, to evaluate kinetics of immune response at 3, 7, and 30 days after a booster dose of MenABCWY+OMV in previously vaccinated subjects and to explore differences in the kinetics of immune response 3, 7 and 30 days after an accelerated 2 dose series of MenABCWY+OMV separated by 30 days given to vaccine-naive subjects, and to assess immunogenicity of 2 doses of MenABCWY+OMV at Day 61 in vaccine-naive subjects and subjects who previously received one dose of MenACWY
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the use of visco-assisted CyPass® Micro-Stent implantation for the lowering of intraocular pressure (IOP) in subjects who have open angle glaucoma (OAG).
This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter, two arm, phase II study to evaluate treatment compliance and change in serum ferritin of a deferasirox granule formulation and a deferasirox DT formulation in children and adolescents aged ≥ 2 and < 18 years at enrollment with any transfusion-dependent anemia requiring chelation therapy due to iron overload, to demonstrate the effect of improved compliance on iron burden. Randomization will be stratified by age groups (2 to <10 years, 10 to <18 years) and prior iron chelation therapy (Yes/ No). There will be two study phases which include a 1 year core phase where patients will be randomized to a 48 week treatment period to either Deferasirox DT or granules, and an optional extension phase where all patients will receive the granules up to 5 years. Patients who demonstrated benefit to granules or DT in the core phase, and/or express the wish to continue in the optional extension phase on granules, will be offered this possibility until there is local access to the new formulation (granules or FCT) or up to 5 years, whichever occurs first.
