Clinical trials

This is a multicentric observational study conducted at selected sites across Latin America. Eligible participants will be identified through the medical records of participating institutions. The study aims to describe overlap of expression of folate receptor alpha (FRα), HER2 and PD-L1 using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and HRD and BRCA (somatic and germline) by NGS. Additionally, to describe clinical demographic and socioeconomic variables, as well as treatment patterns, pathological characteristics, outcomes, and genetic and molecular testing part of clinical practice. All data (including patient characteristics, treatment patterns, outcomes and available tests) will be collected once, retrospectively from medical records, ensuring adherence to ethical standards and participant confidentiality. Biomarkers analysis (including FRα, HER2 and PD-L1) will be performed prospectively, a Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) tumor block will be collected to evaluate and describe the expression of folate receptor alpha (FRα) and HER2, using immunohistochemistry (IHC) with the Roche Ventana kit (FOLR1 and HER2 4B5) and Dako's 22C3 for PD-L1. The study will analyze samples collected between 1st January 2018 to 31 December 2024 (analysis of historically collected samples). The study comprises a retrospective data collection from medical charts. Participants will continue to receive treatment and clinical evaluations according to what is determined by their medical team, according to the usual standards of treatment and clinical practice of each center. No intervention or prospective follow-up is proposed in this study.

The standard prophylaxis for post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP) is performed with rectal non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). A recent Japanese study demonstrated the efficacy of irrigating the periampullary region with ice water, however without the concomitant use of NSAIDs. The proposed study is a randomized, single-center, single-blind clinical trial that aims to compare the efficacy of rectal NSAIDs alone versus NSAIDs associated with ice water in the prevention of PEP.

The purpose of this study is to identify and characterize patients with known Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) for possible participation in ongoing or future T2DM clinical studies, and to characterize trends in key concomitant medication use in this patient population across different geographical regions.

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is widely used to improve muscle strength and mitigate atrophy. However, its clinical efficacy is often limited by early neuromuscular fatigue, muscle damage, and discomfort, which reduce patient tolerance and contraction time. Photobiomodulation (PBM) has emerged as a potential therapy to enhance muscle performance and accelerate recovery by minimizing fatigue and damage. Despite its potential, few studies have investigated the effects of PBM applied specifically before an NMES-evoked fatigue protocol. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial aims to evaluate the acute effects of PBM on neuromuscular fatigue, muscle damage, and functional outcomes in healthy young subjects. Participants will receive either active PBM (cluster probe: 5 lasers 810nm/200mW; 4 LEDs 660nm/10mW; Total Energy: 249.6 J per limb) or sham treatment 5 minutes before a fatiguing NMES protocol (80 contractions at 20% MVIC, 80 Hz, 1ms pulse width) applied to the quadriceps muscle. Assessments will be performed at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and at 24h, 48h, and 72h post-intervention. Primary outcomes include maximum and evoked isometric strength, mechanical work, and electrical muscle activity. Secondary outcomes include muscle damage (ultrasound echo-intensity), delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), functional performance (unilateral vertical jump), and clinical discomfort. The study seeks to determine if PBM can effectively modulate NMES-induced fatigue and muscle damage, potentially optimizing its clinical application.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test if the drug SKY-0515, an oral medication, can lower harmful proteins linked to Huntington's Disease (HD) and improve the symptoms of participants with HD. This study includes men and women aged 25 and older who have HD confirmed by genetic testing and meet certain requirements for physical ability and independence.

CRC is the third most common type of cancer diagnosed worldwide with developed countries at highest risk. The purpose of this study is to assess adverse events and change in disease activity when telisotuzumab adizutecan is given in combination with oxaliplatin, fluorouracil (5FU), leucovorin (LV) (FOLFOX), and bevacizumab or panitumumab. Telisotuzumab adizutecan is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of mCRC. Fluorouracil and leucovorin are drugs approved for the treatment of mCRC. This study will be divided into two stages, with the first stage treating participants with increasing doses of telisotuzumab adizutecan with FOLFOX and bevacizumab or 5FU/LV and panitumumab until the dose reached is tolerable and expected to be efficacious. Participants will then be randomized into 3 groups called treatment arms where one group will receive one of two optimized doses of telisotuzumab adizutecan from the dose escalation phase with FOLFOX and bevacizumab or 5FU/LV and panitumumab, or a comparator of FOLFOX and bevacizumab or panitumumab. Approximately 390 adult participants with mCRC will be enrolled in the study in 100 sites worldwide. In the dose escalation stage participants will be treated with increasing intravenous (IV) doses of telisotuzumab adizutecan with FOLFOX and bevacizumab or 5FU/LV and panitumumab until the dose reached is tolerable and expected to be efficacious. In the dose optimization stage participants will be receive FOLFOX or receive 5FU/LV, but with one of two optimized doses of telisotuzumab adizutecan, or a comparator of FOLFOX and bevacizumab/pantitumumab. The study will run for a duration of approximately 6 years. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution (hospital or clinic). The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires and side effects.

Tracheal intubation in neonates can be technically challenging, even for experienced pediatric anesthesiologists, with a high first-attempt success rate crucial to ensure safety. Intubation, while life-saving for children with circulatory shock or respiratory failure, carries risks of severe desaturation that can lead to hypoxic encephalopathy, cardiac arrest, or death. Neonates, especially, are prone to hypoxemia due to high oxygen consumption, low functional residual capacity, small closing capacity, and increased risk of airway collapse, which is exacerbated under anesthesia and neuromuscular paralysis. Rapid desaturation occurs after cessation of ventilation, with neonates facing shorter apnea times before desaturation. Studies show that about two-thirds of neonates undergoing non-emergency nasotracheal intubation experience desaturation (SpO₂ \<80% for over 60 seconds), although low-flow oxygen supplementation (0.2 L/kg/min) can extend safe apnea time. This study aims to investigate apneic oxygenation with VL (using Miller or Macintosh blades size 0 or 1) in operating rooms or intensive care units. We hypothesize that supplemental oxygen and standardized VL use will improve first-pass success rates and reduce adverse events.

The Phase 2 portion of this study evaluates the efficacy and safety of MRTX849 monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in cohorts of patients with advanced NSCLC with KRAS G12C mutation and any PD-L1 TPS and who are candidates for first-line treatment. The Phase 3 portion of the study compares the efficacy of adagrasib in combination with pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab in patients with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic squamous or nonsquamous NSCLC with KRAS G12C mutation and PD-L1 TPS \>=50% and who are candidates for first line treatment.

Rehabilitation of knee stability and function after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is slow and costly. The use of anabolic steroids, such as oxandrolone, may aid in the recovery of muscle mass and strength, as well as functional capacity. Oxandrolone, derived from dihydrotestosterone, has high anabolic activity and low androgenic activity (a 13:1 ratio), making it more effective in promoting weight gain with fewer side effects compared to other steroids. Registered by the FDA and previously by ANVISA, the National Health Surveillance Agency in Brazil, it is indicated for cases of post-trauma or post-surgery weight loss. The subdermal use of oxandrolone implants is proposed to release the drug directly into the bloodstream, improving efficacy and reducing issues related to oral administration. This study evaluates the safety and tolerability of the oxandrolone subdermal bioabsorbable implant for 24 weeks versus placebo implant in both men and women as an adjuvant treatment during rehabilitation following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgical reconstruction. The serum and pharmacokinetic profile of the oxandrolone subdermal bioabsorbable implant will be monitored.

Gingival recession is a clinical condition in which the gingival margin is displaced apically, exposing the root surface. This condition may be associated with esthetic concerns, dentin hypersensitivity, and difficulties in oral hygiene. Subepithelial connective tissue grafting is considered a standard surgical approach for root coverage, but it requires harvesting tissue from the palate, which may increase postoperative discomfort. Volume-stable xenogeneic collagen matrices have been proposed as an alternative biomaterial to reduce the need for a palatal donor site. This randomized controlled clinical trial will compare a volume-stable xenogeneic collagen matrix with an autogenous subepithelial connective tissue graft for the treatment of multiple gingival recessions. Participants will be allocated to one of two treatment groups. The test group will receive root coverage surgery using a volume-stable collagen matrix, while the control group will receive root coverage surgery using a subepithelial connective tissue graft. Clinical, patient-reported, esthetic, and digital outcomes will be assessed at baseline and during follow-up visits up to 12 months. The primary outcome will be the change in gingival recession depth from baseline to 12 months. Secondary outcomes will include keratinized tissue width, gingival thickness, percentage of root coverage, complete root coverage, dentin hypersensitivity, patient-reported satisfaction, early wound healing, and digital volumetric changes assessed by intraoral scanning.

The study will evaluate how well AZD6234 works and how safe it is in adults with excess weight or obesity. Efficacy of AZD6234 will be compared to placebo in percent body weight change from baseline at 68 weeks of treatment

The purpose of this trial is to assess if ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) can treat esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). I-DXd is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). An ADC attaches to a protein on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. The goal of this trial is to learn how many participants who receive I-DXd have the cancer respond, which means the cancer gets smaller or goes away.

The purpose of the studies is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of eloralintide in participants with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea and obesity or overweight. YDAO is a master protocol designed to support two independent studies: YSA1 and YSA2. Study YSA1 will include participants who are unable or unwilling to use Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) therapy and study YSA2 will include participants who are on PAP therapy for at least 3 months at time of screening and plan to continue PAP therapy during the study. Participants will be assigned to the Intervention-Specific Appendix (ISA) that reflects their current PAP usage. Participation in the study will last about 76 weeks.

This is a Phase I, open-label, single-center study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and recommended Phase II dose of docetaxel when combined with a fixed dose of 177-Lutetium-PSMA-I\&T in chemotherapy-naïve patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
