There are about 5618 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in India. 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 purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of lepodisiran in reducing cardiovascular risk in participants with high lipoprotein(a) who have cardiovascular disease or are at risk of a heart attack or stroke. The study drug will be administered subcutaneously (SC) (under the skin).
Type 2 diabetes and metabolic (dysfunction)-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) often exist together. The prevalence of MAFLD is about 15-30% in healthy people and around 60-70% in people with type 2 diabetes. Moreover, type 2 diabetes accelerates the progression of liver disease in MAFLD. MAFLD is a spectrum of liver conditions, ranging from simple fatty liver (low risk for progression), progressing to steatohepatitis (MASH) with no or mild fibrosis, advanced liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Although diabetes is the strongest predictor of advanced fibrosis in MAFLD, however, only a small proportion of people with type 2 diabetes and MAFLD (about 5-7%) develop a clinically significant liver disease, but the burden of MAFLD is such that even a small proportion of patients developing cirrhosis will lead to a huge strain on the health care system in India. MAFLD is predicted to be the leading indication for liver transplantation in coming years. At present, MAFLD/MASH is the second most common indication for liver transplantation in the USA as well as in India. The question is why around 5-7% patients amongst MAFLD population develop fibrosis and cirrhosis. A growing body of evidence suggest that the disease develops because of a complex process in which several factors, including genetic susceptibility and environmental insults, are involved. There are several gene variants that have been incriminated in the development and progression of MAFLD. The most common genes associated with MAFLD are PNPLA3, TM6SF2, GCKR, and MBOAT7. The loss-of-function gene variant HSD17B13 seems to protect from NAFLD. There are a few studies from India about the role of PNPLA3 and TM6SF2 in MAFLD. However, these studies used USG for the diagnosis of MAFLD, which does not provide any information regarding fibrosis of the liver. The data regarding other three genetic variants are scarce from Indian individuals.
This study will evaluate the effect of triple ICS/LAMA/LABA therapy with BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 μg on cardiopulmonary outcomes relative to LAMA/LABA therapy with GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 μg in a population with COPD and elevated cardiopulmonary risk.
This interventional, randomized, investigator blinded, controlled study conducted in one centre consists in a 4-month evaluation period within the same season avoiding sunny season on 140 subjects with facial epidermal melasma.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the role of memantine in preservation of memory and neurocognition in patients undergoing craniospinal irradiation. Participants will be randomised into two arms and the interventional arm will receive memantine along with the standard treatment. Researchers will compare the neurocognitive tests of participants in both the arms to see if memantine leads to significant preservation of memory and cognition post radiation therapy.
Enhanced recovery after surgery protocols are evidence-based multidisciplinary programs implemented in the perioperative setting to improve postoperative recovery and attenuate the surgical stress response. They have been used with success after many different types of surgery to improve perioperative patient outcomes. However, evidence on their effectiveness in thyroid and parathyroid surgery remains sparse. Goal of PaThERAS study is to investigate the clinical benefits and cost-effectiveness of enhanced recovery protocols for the perioperative management in patients undergoing total thyroidectomy for large goiters/ cancers and parathyroidectomy for symptomatic hyperparathyroidism in non-day-care setting.
This study will compare the new medicine IcoSema, which is a combination of insulin icodec and semaglutide, taken once a week, to insulin glargine (mentioned as insulin glargine in this form) taken daily in people with type 2 diabetes. The study will look at how well IcoSema controls blood sugar levels as compared to insulin glargine in people with type 2 diabetes who do not have their blood sugar properly controlled with other oral diabetes medicines. Participant will either get IcoSema or insulin glargine. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. IcoSema is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe. Doctors can already prescribe insulin glargine in many countries. The study will last for about 11 months (47 weeks).
The purpose of this study is to measure the efficacy and safety of baxdrostat/dapagliflozin in participants ≥ 18 years of age with CKD and HTN. This study consists of a screening, a 4-week dapagliflozin run-in period for participants naïve to SGLT2i at baseline; a 24-month double-blind period in which participants will receive either baxdrostat/dapagliflozin or dapagliflozin; and a 6-week open-label period in which all participants will discontinue baxdrostat/placebo and receive dapagliflozin alone. Site visits will take place at 2-, 4-, 8-, and 16- weeks following randomisation. Thereafter visits will occur approximately every 4 months, until the 24-month visit at which time baxdrostat/placebo will be discontinued. Participants will continue open-label dapagliflozin for another 6-weeks (approximately), where reassessment of GFR will occur for the primary efficacy endpoint. In the event of premature discontinuation of blinded study intervention, participants will continue in the study and receive open-label dapagliflozin monotherapy, unless the participant meets dapagliflozin specific discontinuation criteria, in which case all study interventions will be discontinued.
Diabetic neuropathy, a challenging condition resulting from poorly managed type-1 or type-2 diabetes mellitus, often proves resistant to conventional medications when it comes to alleviating the associated symptoms. In such cases, implementing a well-organized exercise regimen has proven beneficial in mitigating diverse symptoms associated with the condition and enhancing the overall quality of life for affected individuals.
The goal of this international inception cohort study is to describe fluid administration during admittance to the intensive care unit (ICU), and provide contemporary epidemiological data on fluid accumulation, risk factors, management and outcome in critically ill adult patients.
