There are about 1183 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Indonesia. 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.
Adequate pain management has an important role in supporting early ambulation after the Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA). Multimodal analgesia is one of the modalities of overcoming postoperative pain. The use of combination Paracetamol and Ibuprofen injection is expected to reduce total morphine consumption after TKA.
This study evaluates changes in Vitamin D, Zinc, and Iron status of children consuming 2 servings / day of the investigational (test) young children's milk (YCM) for 16 weeks compared to children of the same age who consume their habitual pattern of beverage intake for the same duration.
Health care facility based, randomized, controlled, open label, superiority trial with 3 arms
Scientists and medical workers all around the world were running out of time to manage COVID-19. Several studies have been done to understand the disease and ultimately to find possible treatment. Based on those studies, one of the potential treatment was antibody transfer from recovered COVID-19 patients. Passive antibody transfer was a fast and easy choice. The rational use of antibody from the patient's plasma is a natural neutralizing protein to the cell-infected virus and could possibly slow the active infection down. Investigators initiate an intervention study with purposes to produce quality convalescent plasma from the recovered patients, define the safety of plasma for human use and as an alternative treatment to improve the clinical outcomes of severe COVID-19 patients. The study hypothesis is convalescent plasma is safe and could possibly improve outcome of severe (non-critical) COVID-19 patients. This research will conduct the plaque reduction neutralizing test (PRNT) of recipient blood in vitro. The plasma will be collected in the blood transfusion unit (BTU) in Gatot Soebroto hospital. The storage, testing, transfer, and transfusion of eligible convalescent plasma are the authority of Gatot Soebroto BTU. PRNT and plasma antibody titer measurement from donor plasma will be conducted at Eijkman Institute of Molecular Biology. Investigators enroll approximately 10 patients consecutively, who will be admitted at Gatot Soebroto hospital. Baseline demographic characteristics of samples are recorded. Clinical dan laboratory data will be measured before and after plasma transfusion periodically. The measured variables are pharmacological therapy (antivirus, antibiotics, steroids), invasive oxygen therapy, oxygen index, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, and laboratory parameters such as leukocyte count, blood chemical panel include liver and renal function, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, IL-6 and immunoglobulin titer of the recipient and also chest X-ray evaluation. The potential expected risk of plasma transfusions is transfusion reaction (immunological or non-immune related) and transferred foreign pathogen. Investigator will report and treat all adverse events after plasma transfusion has been done. A severe adverse event (SAE) will also report in a special form to sponsor and data safety monitoring board (DSMB). There is theoretically antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) mechanism from COVID-19 whom will receive plasma transfusion to progress to severe immune response. This preliminary study is supposed to provide supporting data and experience of plasma processing to a larger study in the near future.
Indonesian population's life expectancy has been increasing steadily in the last 3 decades. It potentially increases the prevalence of degenerative diseases, including osteoarthritis (OA). Serum Vitamin D (25(OH)D) level has been recognized as a risk factors for knee OA. Cartilage Oligomeric Matrix Protein (COMP) is cartilage degradation product can be used as a diagnostic marker for knee OA. This study aims to determine the effect of Vitamin D supplementation (Alphacalcidol) on pain based on WOMAC indicators and joint cartilage condition based on COMP serum markers in knee OA elderly patients.
Up to date, no approved medications are available for the treatment of methamphetamine addiction. Recently, N-acetylcysteine is recently being studied for methamphetamine withdrawal. N-acetylcysteine, is a drug that has been long used as a mucolytic. Recent studies investigate the use of N-acetylcysteine in cocaine and withdrawal symptoms by its effect on restoring glutamate homeostasis in nucleus accumbens. Up to date, there has been 2 pilot study investigating the efficacy of N-acetylcysteine for methamphetamine dependence. The present study is aimed to confirm the efficacy and safety of N-acetylcysteine in the treatment of methamphetamine withdrawal symptoms.
This study is designed as a randomized, open-label, 2-way cross-over, single dose study with at least 7 days wash-out period. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the pharmacodynamic / pharmacokinetic equivalence of ovine enoxaparin to the reference product, the originator porcine enoxaparin, Lovenox® from Sanofi, and to assess its safety and tolerability in healthy volunteers.
In December 2019, an outbreak of pneumonia of unknown aetiology was first reported in the city of Wuhan, Hubei Province, People's Republic of China. Since then, a novel coronavirus, 2019 novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) has emerged as the most likely causative agent. To date, it has evolved into a pandemic involving over a million cases and thousands of deaths have been identified, including a high burden in countries like Italy, Spain, United Kingdom and the United States. This study aims to investigate the clinical epidemiology of 2019-novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) pandemic in Asia.
RECOVERY is a randomised trial of treatments to prevent death in patients hospitalised with pneumonia. The treatments being investigated are: COVID-19: Lopinavir-Ritonavir, Hydroxychloroquine, Corticosteroids, Azithromycin, Colchicine, IV Immunoglobulin (children only), Convalescent plasma, Casirivimab+Imdevimab, Tocilizumab, Aspirin, Baricitinib, Empagliflozin, Sotrovimab, Molnupiravir, Paxlovid or Anakinra (children only) Influenza: Baloxavir marboxil, Oseltamivir, Low-dose corticosteroids - Dexamethasone Community-acquired pneumonia: Low-dose corticosteroids - Dexamethasone
Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been declared as a Pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). According to WHO report on March 31st 2020, globally COVID-19 have infected over 750,000 people and caused over 36,000 deaths with case fatality rate of 4.85%. In Indonesia, COVID-19 have infected 1,414 people and caused 122 deaths with case fatality rate of 8.63%. In severe cases, COVID-19 causes complications, such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis, septic shock, and multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), where age and comorbid illnesses as a major factor to these complications. Up to this point there are several promising therapies for COVID-19 but is not yet recommended and in need of further research. The use of convalescent plasma has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) through the scheme of emergency investigational new drug (eIND). This method has been used as the treatment in several outbreak or plague cases over the years, such as the flu epidemic in 1918, polio, measles, mumps, SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome), EVD (Ebola virus disease) and MERS (middle-eastern respiratory syndrome) and this treatment shows better outcome. Several case report on the use of convalescent plasma for COVID-19 patients with ARDS and mechanical ventilation has been reported and shows promising outcome. Nevertheless, larger and multicenter research need to be done to assess and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of convalescent plasma therapy on for COVID-19 patients with ARDS.
