There are about 105 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Sri Lanka. 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 an open-label, uncontrolled, multi-centre observational study that analyses a follow-up of 1600 women with dysfunctional uterine bleeding (idiopathic menorrhagia) over a period of one year.The patients evaluated at four visits, beginning with the insertion visit and 3, 6 and 12 months after insertion.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to establish what dose level and dosing frequency is optimal in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis patients with ART621.
This Post Marketing Surveillance (PMS) will collect reactogenicity and safety data on the use of human rotavirus vaccine in healthy infants aged from 6 weeks (first dose) to not more than 24 weeks (second dose).
The purpose of this pilot study is to provide data on the feasibility of conducting a large clinical trial on the polypill (combination of aspirin, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, thiazide diuretic, and statin) for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We hypothesized that A "polypill" comprising the aforementioned four components would significantly reduce the estimated 10-year total CVD risk score with high adherence and no significant increase in adverse effects compared to the standard practice.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of KIDNET versus a Meditation/Relaxation protocol in treating traumatized children when applied by locally trained teacher counsellors as well as the effectiveness and adequacy of such a treatment in a south-asian war affected stayee child community.
CHIMES is a double blind, placebo controlled, randomized, multicenter study to test the hypothesis that NeuroAid is superior to placebo in reducing neurological deficit and improving functional outcome in patients with cerebral infarction of an intermediate range of severity.
To facilitate introduction of live attenuated SA 14-14-2 Japanese encephalitis vaccine (LJEV) into the National Immunization Programme of Sri Lanka, we evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of co-administration of LJEV and measles vaccine at 9 months of age. The primary hypothesis was that the seropositivity rate at 28 days post vaccination in Japanese Encephalitis (JE) and measles concomitantly vaccinated subjects 9 months of age is greater than 80% for JE and greater than 90% for measles.
To facilitate introduction of live attenuated SA 14-14-2 Japanese encephalitis vaccine (LJEV) into the National Immunization Programme of Sri Lanka, we evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of co-administration of LJEV and measles vaccine in children at 2 and 5 years of age. The primary hypothesis was that the seropositivity rate at 28 days post vaccination of SA 14-14-2 in subjects 2 and 5 years of age who have already received at least two doses of mouse brain-derived inactivated JE vaccine is greater than 80%. Japanese encephalitis virus is the leading cause of viral neurological disease and disability in Asia. The severity of sequelae, together with the volume of cases, make JE the most important cause of viral encephalitis in the world. Approximately 3 billion people—including 700 million children—live in areas at risk in Asia for JE. JE most commonly infects children between the ages of 1 and 15 years, and can also infect adults in areas where the virus is newly introduced. More than 50,000 cases are reported annually and cause an estimated 10,000 to 15,000 deaths. This figure is believed to represent only a small proportion of the disease burden that actually exists.
The purpose of this study is to assess if 10 mg BAY59-7939, taken once daily as a tablet, is safe and prevents blood clot which may form after a knee replacement operation.
A study to increase the safety of polyvalent antivenom involving 1000 patients in three centres: low dose adrenaline, promethazine, & hydrocortisone (alone and in combination) to prevent acute adverse reactions to antivenom in people bitten by snakes: randomised, double blind, placebo-controlled trial.
