There are about 1320 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Saudi Arabia. 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 is a multicenter, open-label, randomized, two-arm Phase 2 study comparing pemetrexed plus best supportive care with best supportive care alone as maintenance therapy following first-line treatment with a pemetrexed-cisplatin combination in patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. A total of approximately 100 patients are planned to be enrolled, and following completion of four cycles of pemetrexed-cisplatin (Induction Phase) those patients in which disease progression has not occurred will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to one of two treatment arms (Maintenance Phase): Arm A (pemetrexed plus best supportive care) or Arm B (best supportive care alone).
The primary objective of this protocol is to evaluate 12 weeks of treatment of varenicline compared to placebo for smoking cessation. Abstinence from cigarette smoking and other tobacco products (e.g., pipe, cigars, chew, snuff.) use during non-treatment follow-up period will also be evaluated.
We hypothesize through this randomized, placebo-controlled adjuvant study, that Aspirin in patients with dukes C or high risk dukes B colorectal cancer (ASCOLT) can improve survival in this patient population over placebo control. If indeed found to be beneficial, because aspirin is cheap and easy to administer, it will positively impact the lives of many individuals in Asia and globally. STUDY OBJECTIVE To assess the effectiveness of Aspirin against placebo control in patients with dukes C or high risk dukes B colorectal cancer in terms of Disease Free Survival (DFS) and Overall Survival (OS) Primary endpoints - DFS among all eligible subjects (high risk Dukes B colon cancer, Dukes C colon cancer and rectal cancer patient sub-groups); - DFS among patients with colon cancer (high-risk Dukes B and Dukes C colon cancer). Secondary endpoints - Overall survival (OS) over 5 years - DFS and OS in - Chinese, Malay, Indian and other ethnic groups - Resected high risk Dukes B colon cancer, Dukes C colon cancer and rectal cancer sub-groups, individually - Compliant versus non-compliant subjects - PIK3CA mutated tumors (where samples are available)
In usual clinical conditions, depressed patients with no sexual dysfunction, after signing their consent for the dissemination of their clinical information will begin their treatment with any SSRI or a Dual antidepressant as per the best clinical decision of their treating psychiatrist. Sexual dysfunction will be identified along the 6 months of active observation. Psychiatrists will decide to change dose, augment, shift or combine antidepressants at their clinical discretion in the benefit of their patients and all clinical decisions will be recorded.Comparisons among antidepressants will be made in terms of their sexual dysfunction potentiality.
This study will be conducted among children in Saudi Arabia who previously received two doses of A, C, Y, W-135 polysaccharide vaccine before the age of 2 years, and in meningococcal vaccine-naïve children (Control Group). This study will evaluate the administration of Menactra® in terms of the serum bactericidal antibody it induces in the two study groups. Safety of Menactra® vaccine will be described.
