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 purpose of this study is to evaluate the steady state pharmacokinetics (PK) of rilpivirine (RPV) and determine the appropriate dose of RPV in combination with other antiretrovirals (ARVs) in participants aged greater than or equal to 2 to less than 12 years and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of RPV in combination with other ARVs in participants of same age group over a 48-week treatment period with primary endpoint at Week 24.
Data from 2007 regarding iodine status among Portuguese pregnant women indicate this is an iodine deficient population group, with only 16.8% presenting adequate urinary iodine values. This may have serious implications for normal cognitive development of the offspring and a concerning socioeconomic impact. In 2013, concerns by the Portuguese Directorate-General of Health lead to the implementation of a public health policy (nº 011/2013) recommending iodine supplementation during pregnancy. IoMum emerges from this context to monitor and update iodine status in Portuguese pregnant women and to evaluate the effectiveness of the above policy by assessing clinical compliance to iodine supplementation and the impact of iodine supplementation in this vulnerable group. IoMum will update data on iodine nutrition in Portuguese pregnant women, promoting political actions towards the elimination of iodine deficiency and thus to the reduction of nutritional, social and economic inequalities.
This is a randomized clinical trial, aimed to analyse the effects of a potentially anti-inflammatory nutritional intervention in disease assessment parameters, inflammatory markers, and quality of life of Fibromyalgia patients. Patients in the intervention group will adopt an anti-inflammatory diet and a diet with a low ingestion of fermentable oligo-, di- and monosaccharides, and polyols (FODMAPs), for a 3 months period. Group control will adopt a diet based on general recommendations for healthy eating in accordance with the World Health Organization.
This was a 64-week randomized, double-masked, multi-center, active-controlled, two-arm study in patients with neovascular age related macular degeneration (nAMD) who have not previously received anti- vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate how well aflibercept works in babies with ROP, comparing it with laser therapy. The study also has the objective to demonstrate how safe aflibercept is when used in babies, and describe how the drug moves into, through and out of the body.
This study aims to better understand the pathways leading to pain in women with two types of pelvic pain condition (endometriosis-associated pain and bladder pain syndrome) and determine whether these pathways can be used to subgroup patients.
Program Ready2E.A.T. was developed to be tested in the upper limb reeducation on population at risk, such as: - Children with dysfunction - Cognitive impaired elderly - Dementia people
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of etrasimod on clinical remission in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).
Polyphenolic compounds are very strong Inhibitors of non-heme iron absorption, as they form insoluble complexes with ferrous iron. Patients with hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) have an increased intestinal non-heme iron absorption due to a genetic mutation in the regulatory pathway, leading to excess iron in the body. This study investigates the inhibitory effect of a natural polyphenol Supplement in participants with HH.
The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the effects of six sessions of aerobic exercise associated with shock waves therapy in the severity of gynoid lipodystrophy.
