There are about 3194 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Portugal. 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 ERYTHRO study is a retrospective medical chart review study of patients in the AMANA and ATUc Early Access Programs (EAPs) across a number of countries, to assess anifrolumab usage and patient experience in treating SLE in a real-world setting. Since patient safety data are already collected and reported according to regulatory requirements through EAPs, this study will not collect safety data.
Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) programs are a multidisciplinary process aimed at patient recovery after an acute cardiovascular event or with chronic heart disease, reducing mortality and morbidity, optimising functional capacity and improving quality of life. The aim is to maintain or recover the patient's clinical, physical and psychosocial condition, slowing down or halting the progression of the underlying disease process. It is based on the practice of personalized physical exercise and the adaptation of behaviours towards a healthier lifestyle, ensuring the reduction and control of risk factors. It is considered a cost-effective intervention that is explicitly and formally recommended by the most diverse and important scientific societies. Through the partnership and collaboration between the various health institutions and the academy, the CR program will take place on an outpatient basis, in a supervised manner, starting after risk stratification with a stress test and respective clinical assessment by a cardiologist. The coordinator of the CR program will be a cardiologist, and the entire multidisciplinary team will be responsible for effectiveness and safety, as well as patient assessment and progress.
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to explore the effectiveness of Free2Be group intervention for sexual minorities. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is it Free2Be effective in the decrease of stress? - Are mindfulness, acceptance, and self-compassion responsible for changes in psychological symptoms? Participants will receive an affirmative mindfulness, acceptance, and self-compassion-based face-to-face group intervention with 13 weekly sessions (Free2Be).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of BMS-986278 in Participants with Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis.
REALIZE was a single-arm retrospective cohort study which described treatment patterns with brolucizumab, including treatment intervals between anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections before and after a switch to brolucizumab. This study was conducted using German patient-level prescription data and the prescription date was used as a proxy for anti-VEGF injection date. The study period was defined from the date of the first available anti-VEGF injection in the dataset to 30 November 2021. The index date for each patient was the date of the first brolucizumab injection, which could be anytime between 01 March 2020 (since brolucizumab became available in Germany for use outside of clinical trials in March 2020) and 30 November 2021. The date of the patient's first neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) diagnosis was assumed to be the date of the first anti-VEGF prescription in the database for that patient, from January 2015 onwards.
The general objective of this observational study is identify and describe the type, frequency, and severity of sexual dysfunction in patients with lung cancer and generate strategies for clinical management and oncological follow-up directed and based on the specific findings in this population. The recruitment will be carried out from July 2023 and will be carried out until December 2023, the analysis of the information will be carried out from January to March 2024.
This multicenter international prospective cohort study will include patients with AIS with a known or newly diagnosed anticoagulant-naïve AF. All centers will use the same transcranial Doppler machine for one-hour monitoring with bilateral 2-MHz probes within 24 hours of symptom onset. Recordings will be analyzed for MES by a blinded central reader. The primary aim is to determine the proportion of patients with MES and the association of MES with functional outcomes assessed by a modified Rankin scale (mRS) score at 90 days.
This phase 3 clinical trial compares the safety and efficacy of palazestrant (OP-1250) to the standard-of-care options of fulvestrant or an aromatase inhibitor in women and men with breast cancer whose disease has advanced on one endocrine therapy in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor.
Carvedilol has emerged as the preferred non-selective β-blocker (NSBB) for treating portal hypertension. However, there is still a debate in dosing regimen, specially regarding dose interval, with a potential lower bioavalability in once daily regimens. The aim of this study is to assess the acute effects of carvedilol posology in patients with clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH), as a surrogate marker of bioavailability. In this experimental study, patients with CSPH receiving carvedilol twice daily were asked to supress the night dose of carvedilol, in order to have a dose interval of approximately 24 hours. Spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) by transient elastography (TE) was performed and compared with SSM prior or under treatment. Same procedure was applied to liver stiffness measurement (LSM).
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of brensocatib at 10 and 40 milligrams (mg) once daily (QD) compared with placebo in improving clinical symptoms of CRSsNP.
