There are about 1254 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Peru. 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.
M2951 is an investigational drug under evaluation for treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. The purpose of the study was to assess the Safety and Efficacy of M2951 in participants with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).
This study is evaluating the efficacy of acalabrutinib in combination with bendamustine and rituximab (BR) compared with placebo plus BR in subjects with previously untreated mantle cell lymphoma.
This study will evaluate the clinical sensitivity and specificity of the FilmArray Global Fever (GF) Panel.
This trial is to study Acthar Gel in participants with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The doctor will assign eligible patients to one of two groups (like flipping a coin). Participants will receive the treatment assigned to their group for 24 weeks: - Acthar Gel - Placebo Gel, which looks like Acthar Gel, but has no medicine in it. The doctor or his staff will take measurements and ask questions to: - see how well the gel is working - see how safe it is for patients with SLE
Taenia solium neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a parasitic infection causing much neurological disease in most of the world. When parasites locate in the cavities around the brain (subarachnoid NCC, SANCC), it becomes an aggressive, progressive and frequently lethal presentation. Current treatment regimens for SANCC have quite limited efficacy. The investigators propose to compare the current standard of care (a single antiparasitic drug, albendazole) with a combined regimen using two antiparasitic drugs simultaneously by adding praziquantel. The trial will enrol 164 patients in four centers, two in Peru, one in Ecuador, and one in Brasil.
Three-arm open, randomized comparative study of acetazolamide, dexamethasone, or no additional treatment to evaluate decrease in peri-calcification edema in neurocysticercosis
This study is a randomized controlled trial of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) stove and fuel distribution in 3,200 households in four countries (India, Guatemala, Peru, and Rwanda). Following a common protocol, each intervention site will recruit 800 pregnant women (aged 18-34 years, 9 - <20 weeks gestation), and will randomly assign half their households to receive LPG stoves and an 18-month supply of LPG. Control households are anticipated to continue to cook primarily with solid biomass fuels, and will receive compensation based on a uniform set of trial-wide principles, customized to each site based on formative research. The mother will be followed along with her child until the child is 1 year old. The researchers estimate that 15% of households will have a second, non-pregnant older adult woman (aged 40 to <80 years) who will also be enrolled at baseline and followed during the 18-month follow-up period. To optimize intervention use, the researchers will implement behavior change strategies informed by previous experiences and formative research in Year 1. This study will assess cookstove use, conduct repeated personal exposure assessments of household air pollution, and collect dried blood spots and urinary samples for biomarker analysis and biospecimen storage. The primary outcomes are low birth weight, severe pneumonia incidence, and stunting of the child, and blood pressure in the older adult woman. Secondary outcomes include preterm birth and development in the child, maternal blood pressure during pregnancy, and endothelial function, respiratory impairment, atherosclerosis, carcinogenic metabolites, and quality of life in the older adult woman. Participants in India, Guatemala and Rwanda will be followed until the child is 5 years old to assess the longer-term effects of the intervention.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LCZ696 titrated to a target dose of 200 mg twice daily, compared to ramipril titrated to a target dose of 5 mg twice daily.
This is a 2-part study to examine the effect of Acthar Gel in adult participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with persistently active disease even after receiving two other treatments intended to modify the disease. Part 1 is an Open Label Period in which all eligible participants receive Acthar Gel for 12 weeks. After these 12 weeks of treatment with Acthar Gel, participants will be evaluated for treatment response using the DAS28-ESR. Participants who have achieved low disease activity (LDA) will enter a double-blind randomized maintenance period (Part 2) and be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either Acthar Gel or matching placebo for an additional 12 weeks. A single participant might be involved in the trial for as many as 32 weeks.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of JTE-051 administered for 12 weeks in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis who are receiving background non-biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug therapy.
