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.
This is an open-label, multi-center, roll-over study to evaluate the long term safety of ribociclib in combination with other drugs in participants who are participating in a Novartis sponsored global study, that has fulfilled requirements for its primary objective(s), and who in the opinion of the Investigator, would benefit from continued treatment.
Cystoid macular edema (CME) is a major cause of suboptimal postoperative visual acuity after cataract surgery. Topical steroidal and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are used to prevent CME. However, noncompliance with eye drops may compromise the effectiveness of treatment. Dropless periocular drug delivery during cataract surgery may improve the outcomes and cost-effectiveness of cataract surgery, and may alleviate the burden on homecare organizations.
To compare the efficacy and safety of remibrutinib versus teriflunomide in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS)
This study is being done to find out if zanidatamab, when given with chemotherapy plus or minus tislelizumab, is safe and works better than trastuzumab given with chemotherapy. The patients in this study will have advanced human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)-positive stomach and esophageal cancers that are no longer treatable with surgery (unresectable) or chemoradiation, and/or have grown or spread to other parts of the body (metastatic).
Registry intended to provide a data repository and reporting infrastructure for the surveillance of CytoSorb device use in real-world critical care settings, and to serve as an objective, comprehensive, and scientifically-based resource to measure and improve the quality of patient care
Small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) has become an important tool in clinical practice since its introduction in 2000. This non-invasive method allows the visualization of small bowel mucosa, being essential in the management of many conditions, such as suspected small bowel bleeding, inflammatory bowel diseases and intestinal polyposis syndromes. Despite recommendations concerning SBCE in different pathologies, there are still some technical concerns to be addressed. The optimal preparation for SBCE has been one of these controversial issues. Currently, the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) recommends that patients ingest a purgative agent (2L of polyethylene glycol, PEG) and antifoaming agents for SBCE, because it was associated with a better visualization. However, it remains unclear which is the optimal timing for purgative use. Furthermore, the use of a booster agent after capsule ingestion is already performed in colon capsule endoscopy, but less is known about its application in SBCE. Also, it remains to be clarified whether a better visualization results in higher diagnostic yield and impacts patients' outcomes. Therefore, the global aim of this prospective, randomized, multi-centric study is to determine the optimal timing and preparation for small-bowel capsule endoscopy (regardless of the equipment used), comparing four groups of different preparation protocols: - Protocol 1) 1L of Moviprep® solution the night before the procedure - Protocol 2) 1L of Moviprep® solution up to 2h before the procedure - Protocol 3) 0.5L of Moviprep® solution up to 2h before the procedure plus 0.5L of Moviprep® solution after the capsule had reached the duodenum (assessed with real-time viewer) - Protocol 4) 1L of Moviprep® solution after the capsule had reached the duodenum (assessed using real-time viewer)
This study is being done to see if tucatinib works better than placebo when given with other drugs to treat participants with HER2-positive breast cancer. A placebo is a pill that looks the same as tucatinib but has no medicine in it. This study will also test what side effects happen when participants take this combination of drugs. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating your disease. Participants will have cancer that has spread in the body near where it started (locally advanced) and cannot be removed (unresectable) or has spread through the body (metastatic). In this study, all participants will get either tucatinib or placebo. Participants will be assigned randomly to a group. This is a blinded study, so patients and their doctors will not know which group a participant is in. All participants will also get trastuzumab and pertuzumab. These are 2 drugs used to treat this type of cancer.
This double-blind, double-dummy study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of ocrelizumab compared with fingolimod in children and adolescents with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis aged between 10 and < 18 years over a duration of at least 96 weeks.
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the safety and efficacy of acasunlimab (also known as GEN1046) as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with non-small cell lung cancer who have progressed during or after treatment of previous standard of care
Risdiplam works by helping the body produce more survival motor neuron (SMN) protein throughout the body. This means fewer motor neurons - nerve cells that pass impulses from nerves to muscles to cause movement - are lost, which may improve how well muscles work in people with SMA. RO7204239 is an investigational anti-myostatin antibody that is designed to target myostatin. Myostatin plays an important role in the regulation of skeletal muscle size by controlling growth. Inhibiting myostatin may help muscles grow in size and strength. RO7204239 in combination with risdiplam, which is designed to increase the amount of SMN protein throughout the body, has the potential to further improve motor function and clinical outcomes for people living with SMA. This trial will study the safety and efficacy of RO7204239 in combination with risdiplam in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). The trial has two parts; Part 1 is the dose-finding part in SMA patients that are either ambulant (aged 2-10 years) or non-ambulant (aged 5-10 years) within separate cohorts, and Part 2 is the pivotal part in SMA patients aged 2-25 years that are ambulant.
