There are about 347 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Nigeria. 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 this study is to determine if providing free laboratory test to pregnant women and their spouses at churches, in addition to laboratories or hospitals, will increase the number of pregnant women and their spouses who get screened for HIV, malaria, sickle cell trait, hemoglobin levels, syphilis, and hepatitis B. These tests are necessary to keep mothers healthy during pregnancy and lead to healthy babies. This research is taking place in 40 churches in Nigeria.
The purpose of the study is to determine the bioavailability/bioequivalence of two pediatric formulations (tablet and reconstitutable suspension) of lamivudine/zidovudine/ nevirapine in comparison to an innovator product. Establishing the bioequivalence of a newly developed age-appropriate fixed dose combination of lamivudine/zidovudine/ nevirapine as an oral dispersible tablet or a reconstitutable suspension for children is invaluable for future product registration and availability of the products to children, thus filling the void in pediatric HIV/AIDS therapy.
The purpose of this study is to establish a gastric cancer registry. A registry is a database of information. With the registry, we can learn more about the genetic causes of gastric cancer in order to develop better methods of early diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of gastric cancers. As part of this study, you will be asked to join a registry of families who are affected with various forms of gastric cancer. These registries are important because they may help physicians better manage gastric cancer now and in the future. Participating in the Early Onset and Familial Gastric Cancer Registry can also be educational for families, since it will provide important information to patients, families, and physicians. All of this will help to further our understanding of genetic causes of gastric cancer and eventually, help determine better ways to diagnose, treat, and survey patients with gastric cancer and people who may have a higher risk for gastric cancer.
This randomized, phase III trial was designed to test the efficacy of a low-dose chemotherapy-maintenance regimen, hypothesized to have anti-angiogenic activity, administered following standard chemotherapy in patients with early breast cancer whose tumors are hormone receptor negative.
