There are about 1320 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Saudi Arabia. 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.
Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections are a growing national and international challenge in healthcare settings. This is not only due to the rapid spread of resistance and paucity of options of targeted-antimicrobial agents, but also owing to the high mortality of patients infected with CRE reaching up to 50% as per the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention. Colistin-based combination regimens have been the mainstay for treating CRE-related infections. Ceftazidime-avibactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor combination, a novel antibiotic, which recently showed a better clinical and microbiological cure against CRE along with the potential to reduce mortality and nephrotoxicity in comparison to colistin-based regimens in observational studies. However, randomized clinical trials are lacking. This non-inferiority randomized controlled study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of ceftazidime-avibactam-based regimens in critically ill patients with CRE infections in comparison to colistin-based regimens.
This is a multicenter, prospective, single-arm observational non-interventional study (NIS), which will be conducted in various countries in the Middle East and India.
This Phase 3 study will assess the safety and efficacy of a single dose of inclacumab, a P-selectin inhibitor, for a vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) after an index VOC in participants with sickle cell disease (SCD). Participants will be randomized to receive either inclacumab or placebo.
This is an interventional study to assess the safety, PK, and efficacy of HST5040 in 12 subjects - 6 with Methylmalonic Acidemia (MMA) and 6 with Propionic Acidemia (PA). The study consists of 3 parts: - Part A: Open-label, within-subject, dose escalation study in PA and MMA subjects ≥ 2 years old to identify a safe and pharmacologically active (optimal) dose of HST5040 for use in Part B. Subjects will continue in a Part A open-label extension until all subjects complete Part A and the optimal dose of HST5040 is identified for use in Part B. - Part B: 6-month, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-period crossover in the same subjects from Part A to evaluate safety and efficacy of the optimal dose of HST5040 in addition to standard of care (SoC). - Part C: open-label long-term extension study in PA and MMA subjects ≥ 2 years old (N = approximately 12, 6 each) to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the optimal dose of HST5040. This study will determine whether HST5040 can improve levels of disease-associated toxins that accumulate in patients with PA and MMA.
The purpose of the study is to assess the effects of selexipag on right ventricular (RV) function in participants with Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
The study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of evobrutinib administered orally twice daily versus Teriflunomide (Aubagio®), administered orally once daily in participants with Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis (RMS). Participants who complete the double-blind treatment period (DBTP) and double-blind extension period (DBEP) prior to approval of a separate long-term follow-up study in their country will get an option for evobrutinib treatment continuation through a 96-week open-label extension (OLE) period.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of macitentan 75 mg versus placebo on exercise capacity at Week 28 in participants with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH).
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of dimethyl fumarate (Tecfidera) and peginterferon beta-1a (Plegridy), both compared with placebo, in pediatric participants with RRMS. The other objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of dimethyl fumarate and peginterferon beta-1a and to assess the effect of dimethyl fumarate and peginterferon beta-1a, both compared with placebo, on additional clinical and radiological measures of disease activity.
This study is to evaluate the response rate and toxicity profile of infusional 5 fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin and irinotecan (FOLFIRINOX) in first-line treatment of advanced biliary tract cancers and also to assess progression free survival and overall survival of FOLFIRINOX in first line treatment of advanced biliary tract cancers
The purpose of this study is to determine if PF-06687234 is effective and safe as add-on therapy to infliximab in subjects with active ulcerative colitis who are not in remission.
