There are about 58 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Sudan. 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 investigators assume that magnesium sulphate for treating eclampsia can be safely reduced from 24 hours to shorter duration of therapeutic anticonvulsant effect for 12 hours. Short duration of drug exposure is suitable for low resource setting where there is little tools or busy staff for monitoring drug toxicity.
This study is a single-center, comparative, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, active-controlled, clinical superiority trial of Fosravuconazole versus Itraconazole combined with surgery in subjects with eumycetoma in Sudan. There will be three arms in this study: The first arm will be Fosravuconazole 300 mg weekly, the second arm will have Fosravuconazole 200 mg weekly and the control arm is the standard treatment using itraconazole 400mg daily. At 3 months time-point, interim analysis will be done and one of the study arms will be dropped according to the drop-the-loser design, based on efficacy or toxicity.
This is a study to assess the safety of a new candidate Leishmania vaccine ChAd63-KH in patients with persistent post kala azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL). This is a Phase II trial in patients with PKDL, to assess the safety and compare the humoral and cellular immune responses generated by the candidate vaccine in patients, and observe any clinical changes in the disease over a 42 day period following vaccination. Study design: Eight adult volunteers will receive 1x10(10)vp and the subsequent eight volunteers will receive 7.5 x10(10)vp. Adolescents will be vaccinated with either 1x10(10)vp or 7.5 x10(10)vp, to be determined by evaluation of all available data after DSMB & CTSC review.
This program is a comprehensive evaluation of rheumatic valvular heart disease (RVHD), Atrial fibrillation (AF)/flutter and stroke. A prospective, randomized, parallel group, open-label clinical trial of rivaroxaban versus standard vitamin K antagonists (VKA) therapy to evaluate non-inferiority of rivaroxaban to VKA, with testing for superiority if non-inferiority is satisfied.
Gum Arabic (GA) rich dietary fiber it is a water-soluble dietary fiber derived from the dried gummy exudates of the stems and branches of Acacia senegal, GA found to have strong immuno modulator in vitro where it increased IL10 production showing strong anti-inflammatory effects (19). The aim of this study is to determine the role of gum Arabic in immunomodulation among patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Helicobacter pylori is a common bacterial infection. It can lead to severe stomach problems, including stomach cancer. Researchers want to look at samples of the bacteria. These H. pylori strains will be taken from chronically infected people. They want to identify the genetic and epigenetic differences in H. pylori strains. This could help predict which people who get infected with the bacteria will get stomach cancer. This could lead to the cancer being detected earlier. It could also mean less people get stomach cancer. Objectives: To study genetic variations of H. pylori strains based on samples from chronically infected people. To identify the features of strains that might lead to severe stomach problems or stomach cancer. Eligibility: People ages 30-70 years who need an upper endoscopy or who were recently diagnosed with stomach cancer Design: Participants will be screened by the doctor who does their procedure and a study nurse. Participants who have endoscopy will have ~6 biopsies removed. These are tissue samples. They are about the size of a grain of rice. Participants will allow the study team to access reports from their stomach exam. Participants with stomach cancer will donate some of the tissue that will be removed during their clinical care. They will allow the study team to access reports of their surgery. They will also allow them to access the microscope slides of their stomach.
A multi-centre, randomized, placebo controlled, trial. Participants at high-risk for vascular events from the network of INTER- CHF will be randomized to inactivated influenza vaccine or placebo and followed prospectively over three influenza seasons. 5,000 participants will be enrolled prior to influenza season, randomized to either influenza vaccine or saline placebo, either of which they will receive annually for three years and then followed over each of the influenza seasons.
This is a randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy and safety of the national malaria treatment guidelines, asses the efficacy and safety of artesunate and sulphadoxine - pyrimethamine (AS+SP) for treatment in uncomplicated P. falciparum and P. vivax malaria and the hematologic effect of 14 days routine primaquine based radical cure in patients suffering from a P. vivax or mixed infection.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Gum Arabic is effective as fetal hemoglobin inducing agent for sickle cell anemia patients.
Root canal therapy will ideally eliminate post-endodontic pain but occasionally analgesics are needed to diminish the pain [1]. Development of pain after completion of root canal treatment may undermine patients' confidence in the procedure and the clinician [2]. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are one of the most frequently taken analgesic medications for dental pain. Their popularity attributed to their efficacy in relieving pain and fever and low side effect profile at therapeutic doses [3]. Mono-therapy analgesic has a low effect on dental pain. Improvement was performance by combining analgesics with different mechanisms of action without raising any adverse effects [4], was effective in controlling moderate to severe pain. The combination of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and paracetamol has shown additive analgesia for treating dental pain in several studies [5,6]. Endodontic treatment with a lower prevalence of postoperative pain is usually the treatment of choice. There have been no controlled dental studies evaluating the additive effects of combining a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug with paracetamol. Breivik et al [6] & Menhinick et al [7] found that a combination of acetaminophen and ibuprofen was more effective than ibuprofen alone in managing postoperative pain. Aim of the present study, to evaluate the efficacy of the paracetamol when used alone and in combinations with three groups of drugs to control postoperative endodontic pain.
