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.
Allogeneic mesenchymal trophic factors (MTF) from human umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSC) injected into the knee joints of 20 patients (group 1) or injected subcutaneously into 20 patients (group 2) is a safe and useful procedure for inducing joint function improvements in osteoarthritis (OA) patients with grade 2, 3, or 4 radiographic OA severity.
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are a major cause of maternal mortality and morbidity, especially in developing countries. Postpartum hypertension can be related to persistence of gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, or preexisting chronic hypertension, or it could develop de novo secondary to other causes. The available data in the medical literature have primarily focused on antenatal and peripartum management. There are few data regarding the evaluation in women who are diagnosis with postpartum hypertension. Some medications that cause vasoconstriction are often used for pain relief, in women having perineal lacerations, episiotomy, or cesarean delivery. Such women usually require large doses of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs that are associated with vasoconstriction and sodium and water retention, this drugs can result in severe hypertension. The purpose of this study is to evaluate maternal postpartum hypertension in women with severe preeclampsia treated with nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs or acetaminophen.
Allogeneic human umbilical cord tissue-derived stem cells will be injected intravenously once per day for 5 days is a safe and useful procedure in inducing remission of RA in patients resistant to standard DMARD therapy.
To assess the adequacy of an endometrial biopsy sample obtained using sonohysterography.
This two-arm, randomized, open-label, multicenter study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab emtansine in combination with pertuzumab versus trastuzumab in combination with pertuzumab and a taxane as adjuvant therapy in participants with human epidermal growth (HER) factor 2 (HER2)-positive primary invasive breast cancer. Following surgery and anthracycline-based chemotherapy, participants will receive either trastuzumab emtansine at a dose of 3.6 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) and pertuzumab at a dose of 420 milligrams (mg) intravenously (IV) every 3 weeks (q3w) or trastuzumab at a dose of 6 mg/kg and pertuzumab at a dose of 420 mg IV q3w in combination with a taxane.
This project seeks to demonstrate the clinical value of the personalised diagnosis of the endometrial factor in infertility.
This multicenter, observational study will evaluate the use and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in routine clinical practice in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. Eligible patients initiated on RoActemra/Actemra treatment in accordance with the local label will be followed for 6 months.
The purpose of this study is to compare the immediate and long term (up to 5 years) immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' MenACWY-TT vaccine when given as a single dose or as 2 doses to toddlers aged 12 to 14 months. Also, this study will also assess if co-administration of GSK Biologicals' MenACWY-TT with the booster dose of Pfizer's Prevenar 13 adversely impacts the immunogenicity of either of the vaccines.
Obstetrical blood loss is an important reason of maternal morbidity and mortality. Because of the increase in the rate of cesarean section, any procedure that could help reduce blood loss during cesarean section should be investigated. The purpose of this study was to compare 2 methods of blunt expansion of the uterine incision at the time of cesarean delivery: transversal vs. cephalad-caudad.
Preeclampsia is one of the three leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality all over the world. The use of low dose aspirin has been mentioned in several studies with promising results. The investigators decided to evaluate the use of low dose aspirin, starting between 13 and 16 weeks of pregnancy, based on clinical characteristics only to reduce the incidence of preeclampsia.
