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.
A single-centre, two-arm, parallel randomised controlled trial (RCT) to compare the combined effect of early intravenous bolus amino acid supplementation and mobilisation versus standard of care on changes in muscle mass over the first week in ICU. Half of study participants will receive the study intervention (in-bed cycling followed by an intravenous bolus amino acid supplement), while the other half will receive standard of care only.
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to compare clinical data and implant stability of immediately loaded TSIII Osstem implants with Sandblasted and Acid-etched (SA) surface versus implants with SA surface modified with pH buffering agent for the rehabilitation of single implant-supported crown.
IMPAACT 2016 is a multi-site, two-arm, individually randomized, controlled study to evaluate whether an Indigenous Leader Outreach Model (ILOM) of trauma-informed cognitive behavioral therapy (TI-CBT) delivered by Indigenous Youth Leaders (IYL) is associated with improved mental health outcomes and ART adherence among youth living with HIV in resource-limited settings. The intervention is adapted to the local context through advance conduct of focus groups and pilot testing.
Prospective data will be collected in approximately 200 patients treated with an TMJ replacement. Patients will be followed up according to the standard (routine) for up to 5 years after the treatment. Data collection will include underlying disease, treatment details, functional and patient reported outcomes (PRO)s and anticipated or procedure-related adverse events (i.e. complications). This registry is designed to be able to assess the number of patients who refuse alloplastic total TMJ replacement. Therefore, the participating sites are asked to register all cases of refused TMJ replacements too.
The purpose of this open-label extension (OLE) study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of etrasimod in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) who previously received double-blind treatment (either etrasimod 2 mg per day or placebo) during participation in one of the qualified Phase 3 or Phase 2 double-blind, placebo-controlled parent studies including but not limited to: (APD334-301 [NCT03945188] or APD334-302 [NCT03996369] or APD334-210 [NCT04607837]).
This study will evaluate the effect of skin antisepsis and/or emollient therapy on bacterial colonization dynamics in very low birth weight, hospitalized infants. Bacterial swabs from 5 body sites will be collected at baseline, day 3, day 8 and day 13 following study arm assignment. Study outcomes include changes in bacterial colony counts, burden of gram-negative and gram-positive pathogens and overall skin score.
Approximately 300 patients presenting orbital blow-out fracture will be enrolled prospectively in this registry. All patients, surgically and nonsurgically treated as per standard (routine) of care will be followed-up (FU) within the registry for a period of 6 months.
This will be the first study to evaluate the use of Nyaditum resae® as a potential agent for reducing antibiotic-associated gut dysbiosis in patients with drug-susceptible TB, and potentially improving clinical and microbiological markers of outcome
PandrTB is a study of the pharmacokinetics(PK) and pharmacodynamics(PD) of bedaquiline, delamanid, clofazimine, linezolid, moxifloxacin, levofloxacin and pyrazinamide used in novel combinations to treat multidrug-resistant tuberculosis(MDR-TB).
A randomised clinical trial to compare the clinical efficacy of multiple plastic stents to fully covered self expanding metal stents in the palliation of distal malignant biliary obstruction in patients with irresectable tumours.
