There are about 11148 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Egypt. 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 study is the first evidence based work evaluated the systemic use of glucosamine as an adjunctive therapy to closed mechanical debridement in chronic periodontitis. The use of glucosamine sulphate was correlated with clinical outcomes and IL1-β level in the GCF of patients with moderate to advanced chronic periodontitis
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of the trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of insulin detemir versus insulin Neutral Protamine Hagedorn (NPH) in combination with the maximum tolerated dose of metformin and diet/exercise on glycaemic control in children and adolescents with type 2 diabetes insufficiently controlled on the maximum tolerated dose of metformin with or without other oral antidiabetic drug(s) with or without basal insulin.
This research is being done so that we can look at the safety and efficacy of deferiprone in people with sickle cell disease or other anemias. Deferiprone is a drug that removes iron from the body. We will be comparing deferiprone with deferoxamine, another drug that removes iron from the body.
Treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection was carried out using pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN), ribavirin (RBV) and vitamin D (vit D) for 48 weeks in HCV genotypes 4a subjects. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of vitamin D on liver affection in such patients.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common disabling condition, for which no effective therapy currently exists. Synovitis has been demonstrated in hand OA imaging. Synovial inflammation due to the release of cytokines is an important cause of pain. Methotrexate (MTX) helps to decrease synovitis in many inflammatory joint diseases, particularly rheumatoid arthritis. The aim of the present study is to assess the efficacy of MTX in decreasing pain and inflammation in symptomatic hand OA. Methods: One hundred and twenty patients with American College of Rheumatology (ACR) clinical and radiographic criteria of primary knee OA with hand pain, [>4 on the 24-hour average pain severity scale (0-10) using mean of daily ratings from week preceding randomization] for > 14 days/month during 3 consecutive months preceding enrollment will be included in this randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial. Patients meeting the eligibility criteria were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either 25mg/week oral MTX (n=60) or placebo (n=60) together with their usual therapy provided the dosages were kept constant for 28 weeks. Pain will be assessed using the Visual Analogue pain Scale, (VAS, 0-100 mm). Functional assessment will be performed using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and Activities of daily living (ADL) scores. Alterations in dosage of analgesic/NSAID drugs used will be recorded. Safety and tolerability will also be assessed. Synovitis will be detected by ultrasound imaging.
Intralipid can suppress natural killer cells that are known to be involve in repeated implantation failure and recurrent miscarriages.Intralipid is made of purified soybean oil, egg phospholipids, glycerol and water. It provides essential fatty acids, linoleic acid, omega- 3 and 6 fatty acids and alpha-linolenic acid. The effects of Intralipid in suppressing natural killer cell activity (NKa) were found to be comparable to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) by laboratory experiments.We will study the effect of intralipid infusion on the pregnancy outcome of women aged 35-40 years with history of repeated implantation failure of miscarriage and who have positive peripheral blood natural killer cells
This is a phase II/III confirmatory study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of nintedanib (BIBF 1120) in combination + (pemetrexed / cisplatin) followed by nintedanib (BIBF 1120) versus placebo + pemetrexed / cisplatin followed by placebo for the treatment of patients with unresectable malignant pleural mesothelioma.
The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the study drug known as prasugrel for the reduction of Vaso-Occlusive Crisis events in pediatric participants with sickle cell disease. The study will also investigate reduction in daily pain in children who have sickle cell disease.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the role of uterine natural killer cell(uNK)in recurrent pregnancy losses and the correlation between the numbers of it and embryo toxicity by measuring the level of the Th2 cytokines in normal reproductive profile and in patients with Recurrent Pregnancy Losses (RPL).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate SSP-004184AQ in patients with transfusional iron overload whose primary diagnosis is hereditary or congenital anemia. SSP-004184AQ is an iron chelator under development for chronic daily oral administration to patients with transfusional iron overload.
