There are about 3576 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in South Africa. 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 Phase III open-label study to assess if camizestrant improves outcomes compared to standard endocrine therapy in patients with ER+/HER2 - early breast cancer with intermediate or high risk for disease recurrence who completed definitive locoregional therapy (with or without chemotherapy) and standard adjuvant endocrine therapy (ET) for at least 2 years and up to 5 years. The planned duration of treatment in either arm of the study is 60 months.
This is a single group, 1-arm, long-term safety study for treatment of participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD). The purpose of this study is to characterize the long-term safety and efficacy of amlitelimab in treated participants with age ≥12 years old with moderate to severe AD. The study duration per participant will be up to 180 weeks, including: - A screening period of up to 2 to 4 weeks - An open label treatment period of up to 160 weeks (approximately 3 years) - A post-treatment safety follow-up period of at least 20 weeks after the last dose administration The planned number of visits will be 26 visits.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of secukinumab 300 milligram (mg) and 150 mg administered subcutaneously (s.c.) for 52 weeks in combination with prednisone tapered over 24 weeks in adult participants with PMR who have recently relapsed.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether one or two 17-week regimens of tuberculosis treatment bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M), pyrazinamide (Z)-- (BMZ) plus either Rifabutin (Rb) or Delamanid (D or DLM) are as effective as a standard six-month regimen for treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). All three regimens are administered daily, seven days each week. The first 17-week regimen is 2 months of bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M), pyrazinamide (Z), (BMZ) plus rifabutin (Rb) (BMZRB) followed by 2 months of bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M) and Rifabutin (Rb) (2 BMZRb/2 BMRb, Arm 1) The Second 17-week regimen is 2 months of bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M), pyrazinamide (Z), (BMZ) plus delamanid (D or DLM); (BMZD) followed by 2 months of bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M) and delamanid (D or DLM) (2 BMZD/2 BMD, Arm 2) The standard 26-week treatment control regimen which is two months of isoniazid, rifampin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide (2HRZE) followed by four months of isoniazid and rifampin (4HR); (2HRZE/4HR, Arm 3) Target enrollment is 288 male and female participants (96/arm). participants. Participants will be followed until 78 weeks post-randomization, or until the last enrolled participant completes 52 weeks post-randomization, whichever comes first.
This study aims at evaluating the effect of a topical product on the improvement of quality of life and pain of patients suffering from atopic dermatitis or other skin diseases with dryness or severe xerosis. Patients aged 16 years and over are asked to apply the product once or twice a day for 2 months. They may be prescribed a corticosteroid upon decision of the dermatologist.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if milvexian is at least as effective as apixaban for reducing the risk of the composite stroke and non-central nervous system (CNS) systemic embolism.
This is a 12-week study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of budesonide and formoterol fumarate metered dose inhaler relative to budesonide metered dose inhaler in adults and adolescents with inadequately controlled asthma.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate that milvexian is superior to placebo, in addition to standard-of-care, in reducing the risk of major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) (the composite of cardiovascular [CV] death, myocardial infarction [MI], and ischemic stroke).
South Africa (SA) has a long history of social and health disparities, resulting in the world's highest rate of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD; 111.1 per 1,000), where lifelong negative cognitive and physical effects result from prenatal alcohol exposure. FASD is completely preventable if women do not drink during pregnancy. Prenatal alcohol use frequently co-occurs with other substance use, especially tobacco and cannabis. The adverse effect on birth outcomes by alcohol and tobacco use together is worse than either substance alone. Recent evidence from animal models shows that prenatal exposure to both cannabinoids and alcohol potentiate the likelihood of alcohol-induced birth defects. Data from Cape Metropole, SA, showed that all women who reported prenatal alcohol use also tested positive for tobacco use, with 25% also reporting cannabis use. Alcohol use while breastfeeding also occurs at a relatively high rate in SA. Despite tremendous health benefits from breastfeeding,maternal alcohol use while breastfeeding significantly compromises infant development. Contingency management (CM) has been efficacious in reducing prenatal cocaine, alcohol, and tobacco use in the United States (U.S.). The Women's Health CoOp (WHC) is an evidence-based brief intervention addressing women-focused syndemic issues and resulting disparities associated with substance and alcohol use. These evidence-based interventions need to be combined and adapted for addressing maternal polysubstance use and associated health and behavioral issues during pregnancy and lactation in SA. The Specific Aims are as follows: (1) R61 Aim 1- Conduct formative qualitative research with women who are pregnant or breastfeeding with a recent history of polysubstance use, clinic and community stakeholders, and an established Community Collaborative Board. (2) R61 Aim 2-Test feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness of the adapted intervention with 48 women (24 pregnant and 24 breastfeeding) in Cape Metropole, SA. (3) R33 Aim 1-Examine the effectiveness of the adapted intervention (i.e., CM and text-based support with WHC educational components) in a 2-group randomized controlled trial with 184 women who are pregnant and follow up during pregnancy and 3 months postpartum. (4) R33 Aim 2-Examine the impact on gestational, birth, and infant outcomes. (5) R33 Aim 3-Track cost and conduct preliminary cost-effectiveness analyses.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of mRNA-1365, an mRNA vaccine targeting respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and human metapneumovirus (hMPV) and mRNA-1345, an mRNA vaccine targeting RSV, in participants aged 5 months to <24 months.
