There are about 2459 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in New Zealand. 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 aim of this study is to investigate the analgesic effects of intraperitoneal lignocaine (IPL) compared with intravenous lignocaine (IVL) after laparoscopic colon resections. We plan to run a 2 group randomized, double blind, clinical trial which will look into morphine consumption as the primary outcome. Group 1 (IV lignocaine)- IV bolus of lignocaine and a 3 day post operative IV lignocaine infusion. Intra peritoneal (IP) bolus of normal saline + 3 day post operative IP normal saline infusion Group 2 (IP lignocaine)- IV bolus of normal saline and a 3 day post operative IV normal saline infusion. IP bolus of lignocaine + 3 day post operative IP lignocaine infusion
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of risankizumab versus placebo during induction therapy in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD).
The objective of Study M15-991 is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of risankizumab versus placebo during induction therapy in participants with moderately to severely active CD.
The objective of the trial was to investigate the effect of the use of inhaled CMS, administered b.i.d. via a specific nebuliser for 12 months, compared to placebo in subjects with NCFB chronically infected with P. aeruginosa on the annualised frequency of pulmonary exacerbations.
This investigation is designed to evaluate the performance as well as the patients overall acceptance of the seal/mask.
This project will develop and evaluate a patient-reported symptom index to assess the impact of treatment for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer on patient burden, toxicity, symptoms and side effects. The symptom index will provide a method for assessing treatments from the patient's perspective; help healthcare professionals make better informed treatment decisions, and provide a method to be able to effectively evaluate treatments for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
The study objective of Period 1 was to compare the safety and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg once daily (QD) to abatacept on a background of conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) for the treatment of signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (bDMARD)-inadequate response or bDMARD-intolerant participants with moderately to severely active RA. The study objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg QD in participants with RA who had completed Period 1.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of relugolix 120 milligrams (mg) orally once daily for 48 weeks on maintaining serum testosterone suppression to castrate levels (< 50 nanograms/deciliter [ng/dL]) in participants with androgen-sensitive advanced prostate cancer.
Double-blind, placebo controlled Phase III trial of erythropoietin for hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy in infants receiving hypothermia. The study aim is to determine whether Epo in conjunction with hypothermia in infants with moderate/severe hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) will improve neurodevelopmental outcomes at 2 years of age, without significant adverse effects, when compared to hypothermia alone.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of zilucoplan (RA101495) in patients with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH). There will be two groups of patients in the study: the first group will include patients who have never received eculizumab for treatment of PNH. The second group will include patients who have received treatment with eculizumab for at least 6 months prior to the study. Patients will be treated with RA101495 for 12 weeks.
