Filter by:The objective of this present study was to asses the pharmacokinetic properties of acyclovir tablet from new product formulation (PT. Kimia Farma (Persero) Tbk) to its innovator product, Zovirax® tablet (Glaxo Wellcome S.A., Aranda, Spain)
The purpose of this research was to investigate whether Furosemide 40 mg tablet manufactured by PT. Kimia Farma Tbk was bioequivalent to its reference drug and Lasix® 40 mg Tablet manufactured by PT. Aventis Pharma, Indonesia.
This study was conducted to investigate whether 100 mg/5 mL cefixime trihydrate dry syrup manufactured by PT. Bernofarm, Indonesia was bioequivalent to its reference product, 100 mg/5 mL Suprax® dry syrup manufactured by Odan Laboratories Ltd., Canada registered trademark of Astellas Pharma Inc., Japan.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib 5 mg twice daily in AAV patients.
The study was conducted to investigate whether 2 mg cyproterone acetate (CPA) and 0.035 mg ethinyl estradiol (EE) film-coated tablet (Elzsa®) manufactured by PT. Sydna Farma was bioequivalent to its reference product, Diane®-35 sugar-coated tablet manufactured by Bayer Weimar GmbH, Germany, imported by PT. Bayer Indonesia, Depok, Indonesia.
Truvada®, an oral pill comprised of two anti-retroviral compounds, emtricitabine (FTC) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), is currently the only drug combination approved for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in women exposed to high HIV risk through vaginal acquisition. Adherence to the one pill per day regimen is crucial for its effectiveness in reducing the risk of acquiring HIV. Currently, there is no available point of care diagnostic test to quickly measure blood levels of tenofovir in the clinic. This study will determine whether a tenofovir (TFV) aptamer-based biosensor (aptasensor) can detect TFV in biological fluids from women randomized to different dosing regimens representing high and low adherence.
The purpose of this study is to see if providing HIV medicine right away at the IDEA Syringe Services Program will help the participant start and remain in HIV care, including having no detectable HIV in the participant's blood.
This 3-arm study compares the effectiveness of an (1) 8-week mindfulness-based intervention, MBCT-R (Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for Resilience During COVID-19)+CHA MindWell vs. (2) iCBT (internet based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)+ CHA MindWell vs. (3) CHA MindWell remote monitoring and telephone coaching alone on depressive symptoms as measured over the course of 24-weeks by the computerized adaptive mental health (CAT-MH) interview for depression (CAT-DI). Secondary outcomes include rates and levels of alcohol and drug use, as well as the number of required mental health clinician visits (televisits and in-person visits). Exploratory outcomes include stress-related affect reactivity and salivary inflammatory markers (e.g., interleukin-6).
Methamphetamine misuse has become a growing concern in Alberta, creating a burden on the health care system. Further, individuals who use methamphetamine in Alberta exhibit significant difficulty remaining in treatment. These troubling patterns necessitate the provision of evidence-based practices (EBPs)-those grounded in empirical evidence-to ensure the best possible care and outcomes for those struggling with this addiction. Within the field of substance use (SU), contingency management (CM) is an extensively studied evidence-based treatment (EBT) for addictive disorders. CM is an intervention that provides incentives to encourage positive behavioural change. Compared to standard care (treatment-as-usual (TAU)), CM has resulted in improvements in abstinence, attendance, adherence, retention, and quality of life. The efficacy of CM has largely been investigated in the context of reinforcing abstinence, though the literature suggests that CM which reinforces attendance may be as effective. Research from the US has examined the cost-effectiveness of CM and found that although CM costs more, it was associated with greater abstinence, treatment completion, and substance-absent urine compared to TAU. Despite the promising literature, the uptake of CM in Canada is limited making it difficult to understand whether this EBT is equally efficacious as compared to the US. This study will implement and evaluate the efficacy of virtually delivered attendance-based CM in outpatient addiction treatment in Alberta. Participants (N=544) will be individuals seeking treatment for methamphetamine use (n=304) and individuals seeking treatment for substance use issues other than methamphetamine use (n=240). It is hypothesized that compared to participants in TAU, participants in CM will evidence: (1) greater retention, (2) greater attendance, (3) greater abstinence from methamphetamine and less methamphetamine use, (4) greater abstinence from other SU and less SU, and (5) greater improvement in quality of life over the intervention and follow-up periods. Exploratory aims include understanding how: outcomes differ based remote versus in-person delivery of CM; outcomes differ between participants who use methamphetamine and participants who use substances other than methamphetamine; the costs of CM differ from TAU; CM changes health service use.
The goal of this clinical trial is to pilot test a group level intervention, called Y2Prevent, which aims to decrease drug use and HIV/STI risk among Black/African American young men who have sex with men (AAYMSM). The main question it aims to answer is: • determine if Y2Prevent is possible to engage in easily and is accepted by the participants, for potential expansion to other cities. Participants will engage in 7 weekly group sessions focused on helping AAYMSM identify life goals and safeguard their health to achieve those goals. This intervention will also include: - HIV/STI testing and treatment referral - drug screening and treatment referral - positive youth development and future planning through a mentorship program
