There are about 743 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Kenya. 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.
The purpose of the study is to assess the long-term safety profile of Ad26.ZEBOV and MVA-BN-Filo in participants previously exposed to these vaccines in Phase 1, 2, or 3 clinical studies.
Primary Objective: To determine whether a single dose combination of OZ439 (Artefenomel)/FQ (Ferroquine) was an efficacious treatment for uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria in adults and children. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the efficacy of OZ439/FQ: - To determine the incidence of recrudescence and re-infection. - To determine the time to relief of fever and parasite clearance. - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of OZ439/FQ in adults and children. - To characterize the pharmacokinetics of OZ439 in plasma, FQ and its active metabolite SSR97213 in blood. - To determine the blood/plasma ratio for FQ and SSR97213 in some participants at limited time points in selected sites.
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 purpose of the trial is to develop the evidence on relative efficacy of 3 available single-dose loperamide adjuncted regimens for watery diarrhea and a single-dose regimen, with and without loperamide, for dysentery/febrile diarrhea required for informing decisions among these regimens. Information from this study will be used to develop management guidelines for the diagnosis and management of travelers' diarrhea (TD) among deployed United States and United Kingdom military personnel.
There is a rapidly-growing need to identify evidence-based, safe, and effective co-treatment regimens for HIV-related tuberculosis (TB) among patients who require protease inhibitor (PI)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART). This study compared three alternative co-treatment options among participants in high TB endemic resource-constrained settings, in which one co-treatment option explores if an additional anti-HIV drug needs to be used when patients are being treated with a PI together with rifabutin-based anti-TB treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with two medicines in combination (fluconazole and flucytosine) is safe as compared with one medicine alone (fluconazole) for the treatment of an early infection with a fungus called cryptococcus.
Two wheelchair types available for children in Kenya are assessed for energy costs, utility, and complications. This study will arrive at a protocol for assessing wheelchairs in low-income settings, and in the process, provide wheelchair makers and providers with specific feedback. It also serves as a means to increase the skills of local health professionals working with the children in this study, while providing them with appropriate wheelchairs to use.
Primary Objective: To assess the antiparasitic activity of intramuscular (IM) SAR97276A based on parasite reduction ratio at 72 hours in pediatric patients with uncomplicated malaria Secondary Objectives: - To assess the evolution of clinical signs and symptoms (including the need for a rescue therapy) in pediatric patients with uncomplicated malaria receiving SAR97276A with reference to Artemisinin-Based Combination Therapy (ACTs) - To assess the pharmacokinetics profile of SAR97276A in pediatric patients with uncomplicated malaria - To assess the safety profile of SAR97276A in pediatric patients with uncomplicated malaria - To assess the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationship of SAR97276A
The study will be conducted in asymptomatic pregnant women with P. falciparum parasitemia. The subjects will be given 3 day dosing regiment of the fixed-dose combination of Azithromycin and Chloroquine. Parasitological clearance rate with polymerase chain reaction data will be evaluated on Day 28 as primary endpoint.
The primary objective is to establish superiority of AZCQ over SP in protective efficacy for IPTp as measured by the proportion of subjects with sub-optimal pregnancy outcome.
