There are about 5618 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in India. 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 will be a two-arms study intending to demonstrate superiority of NexoBrid treatment over SOC in children with thermal burns. The study objective is to evaluate the safety and clinical benefit of NexoBrid in hospitalized children (0-17 years) with deep partial and/or full thickness thermal burns of 1-30% TBSA and to compare NexoBrid to standard of care (SOC).
Balance problems are addressed in low back pain patients. Dearth of literature available to prove core strengthening or any form of back exercises improving functional outcomes or balance in chronic back pain patients. No studies focus on balance training in improving balance of low back pain patients. The authors are conducting a randomised trial comparing balance exercises and routine back exercise program in improving pain, functional outcomes and balance of the patients
The e-Ultimaster will further validate the safety and efficacy of Ultimaster DES system in unselected patients representing everyday clinical practice. Also the study will assess the impact of non-compliance with dual antiplatelet therapy, one month after stent implementation (frequently observed in every day clinical practice), on stent thrombosis.
TITLE: Randomized Controlled Evaluating the Role of Exercise in Women Undergoing Treatment for Breast Cancer Yoga and Quality of life: Yoga is based on the practice of physical postures, breathing techniques and meditation. Philosophically, it aims at increasing the body's ability to master the mind with the goal of spiritual awareness and connection. A randomized trial of yoga in women with breast cancer undergoing radiation therapy demonstrated an improvement in impact of events scale at 3 months suggesting that the more intrusive thoughts at 1 month the greater the finding of meaning in cancer by 3 months. Randomized studies have demonstrated evidence of yoga improving the emotional well being of women with breast cancer and improving their distressed mood, thus providing a buffering effect on QOL. The main beneficial effects demonstrated are on social functioning. Among patients not receiving chemotherapy, yoga appears to enhance emotional well-being and mood and may serve to buffer deterioration in both overall and specific domains of QOL. EVALUATION TOOLS- European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer-Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30 & BR-23) Brief Fatigue Inventory VAS (Pain score) Spirituality Questionnaire Pulmonary function test Objective assessment STUDY ENDPOINTS- Primary end points- Disease free survival Secondary end points- Quality of life & Improvements in overall survival STUDY DESIGN TREATMENT PLAN - All newly diagnosed cases with stage I-III of breast cancer who present to Tata Memorial Hospital will be randomly assigned to perform either a set of 'Yogic and Routine Exercises (referred to as exercise I) or Routine Exercises'(referred to as exercise II)./ Patients will begin the exercises within a week of starting treatment. Both arms of the study will receive a training session one hour per day for the first week, during which they will be instructed to practice daily and maintain a daily log. The other evaluation tools will be used as per the assessment time line (enclosed).The exercises in the Exercise I arm (Yoga and conventional exercises) will be upgraded within the next 2 days to Phase II. Patients will be allowed to attend a minimum of four out of seven days in Phase I and II. Patients will be assessed at 6 months for compliance to phase II exercises. Only if patients are fulfilling the criteria for accuracy, sequence and duration of phase II exercises, will they be taught phase III exercises. Patients who are unable to do phase II exercises at 6 months will be re taught phase II exercises. These patients will then be re assessed at 1 year for up gradation to phase III. Six months after completion of phase III exercises, patients will be assessed for compliance to phase III exercises. Patients will also undergo an objective assessment at 1 year. An additional up gradation will be after completion of adjuvant therapy at 6 months. Patients will be followed up for a period of 5 years. DFS will be measured from the time of randomization to either progression or death. Quality of life will be measured at baseline and every six monthly using the functional assessment cancer therapy- quality of life. Quality of Life analysis at 400 patients will be performed with appropriate correction for multiple analyses applied. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS- For an expected 50% 5 year disease free survival (DFS) for the control group, the expected 5 years DFS for the intervention group will be 60%. With a two-sided analysis, and at 80% power and 95% confidence to detect a 10% difference between the arms, the sample size would be 761 patients. Assuming a 10% loss to follow up, a total of 850 patients would be accrued. We expect to complete accrual in 3 year. RANDOMIZATION AND STRATIFICATION- Randomization for intervention will be done centrally from Clinical Research Secretariat and patient will be stratified by Menopausal status: Pre + Peri or Post Neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment Stage of disease: I/II/III ANALYSIS- Disease Free Survival (DFS) will be calculated from the date of randomization to the date of local, regional or distant relapse or death from any cause and will be censored at the last date of follow up for the patients that are alive and disease free or have been lost to follow up. Overall Survival (OS) will be calculated from the date of randomization to the date of death or censored at the date of last follow up for the patients who are alive or lost to follow up. DFS and OS will be evaluated using Kaplan Meier and compared by Log-rank test. The Cox proportional hazard model will be used to assess the impact of intervention after correction for stratification, menopausal status and age.
The purpose of the Evera MRI™ study is to confirm safety and efficacy of the Evera MRI ICD (Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator) System in the clinical MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) environment when subjects receive MRI scans without positioning restrictions (MRI scans may occur anywhere on the body).
BCD-017-3 is an double-blind randomized phase III clinical study to compare the incidence of CTCAE grade 3/4 neutropenia after a single administration of recombinant human pegylated filgrastim empegfilgrastim (Extimia®) at a dose of 6 or 7,5 mg versus daily administration of filgrastim at a dose of 5 μg/kg/day for neutropenia prophylaxis in breast cancer patients receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy. The study also includes the following determination of pharmacokinetic parameters after repeated administration of the study drug.
This randomized phase III trial studies clofarabine to see how well it works compared with daunorubicin hydrochloride and cytarabine when followed by decitabine or observation in treating older patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as clofarabine, daunorubicin hydrochloride, cytarabine, and decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating acute myeloid leukemia.
This study was designed as a randomized, controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of 1% MF gel as local drug delivery in adjunct to SRP for the treatment of intrabony defects in chronic periodontitis in comparison with placebo gel.
The study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy of Sildenafil (a 5-phosphodiesterase inhibitor) as a means to improve the cognitive impairment encountered in patients of minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) as proposed in different studies. This study would also assess the role of improvement of cognition as a means of improvement in quality of life.The patients will receive Sildenafil or no treatment for 4 weeks. This study may prove and provide important therapeutic strategy for cognition impairment in patients with MHE.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of rituximab alone vs combination of rituximab and cyclophosphamide in the treatment of pemphigus not responding adequately to routine medications.
