What Are Clinical Trials Clinical Trials: Clinical trials are studies in medical science that involve people. The aim of these studies is to test whether different treatments prescribed on the basis of these tests are safe or not. These trials may involve either healthy members of the public or patients depending on the study. These are carried out to answer specific questions about the effect of a specific drug or treatment on health and illness of subjects. Aims for conducting clinical studies
Clinical trials are systems of experiments that allow physicians to safely test out potential solutions for incurable diseases on human subjects in a controlled environment for a certain period of time. These trials also allow physicians test the efficiency of the current approved treatments. Clinical trials consist of clinicians splitting human subjects with the study’s desired disease into two groups, experimental and control group; this lets physicians successfully compare the effects of a certain
Clinical Trials and Its Importance in Drug Discovery Introduction Clinical trials are research studies that check how well new medical approaches work in individuals. Every study answers scientific queries and tries to search out higher ways to prevent, screen for, diagnose, or treat a disease. Clinical trials may additionally compare a brand new treatment to a treatment that 's already on the market. Every clinical test incorporates a protocol, or action plan, for conducting the trial. The plan
medical devices are demonstrated in a sequence of clinical trials which are conducted prior to the approval. Considering the rigorous process with which a drug is approved by the regulatory bodies, it can be said that there is no drug which is completely safe. Clinical research is a branch of healthcare science that determines the safety and effectiveness of medications,
Ethics in Clinical Research Ethical Guidelines The goal of clinical research is to develop generalizable knowledge that improves human health or increases understanding of human biology. People who participate in clinical research make it possible to secure that knowledge. The path to finding out if a new drug or treatment is safe or effective, for example, is to test it on patient volunteers. But by placing some people at risk of harm for the good of others, clinical research has the potential to
Clinical Research And It's Scope in India Clinical research is a current booming industry. It provides scientific analysis of the impact, risks, benefits and efficacy of medicines or a medicinal product. The trials are done before initiating the products in the market. The tests are performed at different stages and after-launch, surveys are held to supervise the safety and monitor the side effects if any. The Clinical Research Organisations (CRO) or pharmaceutical companies carry out the tests
Ethical concerns in clinical trials The goal of clinical research is to develop knowledge that improves human health or increases our understanding of human biology. People participating in clinical research make this scarce knowledge available to scientists. The way to find out if a new drug or treatment is safe or effective, for example, is to test it on patient volunteers. But this clearly puts a human life at risk for the betterment of others. And it at this place where the Ethical concern comes
Clinical trial results Results of a clinical trial involving 173 patients who failed the treatment of Ipilimumab, gave Keytruda its breakthrough designation. Patients were administered a dose of 2 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) or a higher dose of 10 mg/kg. It was observed that

This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of 1% Alendronate gel and tetracycline fibers as an adjunct to scaling and root planing. The study was conducted on 30 subjects with a split mouth randomized controlled clinical design . The efficacy was determined based on the clinical parameters of the two groups that is Group I (treated by 1% Alendronate gel) and Group II (treated by tetracycline fibers).In order to overcome the drawbacks associated with systemic and conventional mode of therapy
can be explained as when medicines affect the body in a harmful and unintended manner. Prior to obtaining marketing authorisation for a new drug, the drug has to be tested and the corresponding data has to be gathered. These tests are known as clinical trials, and the relevant regulatory bodies must use this data to decide whether the drugs benefits outweigh the associated risks. If the benefits are seen to be greater than the risks marketing
the dose should be minimize to 15 mg once daily in patients with a Creatinine clearance rate is 15 to 50 mL/minute . The major disadvantage effect of rivaroxaban were related to bleeding and its happened at rates same to those of warfarin in clinical trials. Non-hemorrhagic adverse drug action reported at a rate of 5% or more included peripheral edema, dizziness, nasopharyngitis, cardiac failure, bronchitis, dyspnea, and diarrhea, which happened at rates like to those receiving warfarin1 Interruption
Systematic review clinical assessment and evaluation of all studies that discusses the same clinical issue, simply its summary of outcomes of researched studies in a quantitative manner and hence it's named Meta analysis. After setting a question and searching for studies that meets the eligibility criteria and reading it very well to obtain adequate and precise results for Meta analysis detection of bias in the individual studies is an important issue to avoid inadequate results and to be sure
now has shown to be effective more than it with major depression patients according to controlled trials studies(Antunes et al., 2009). Despite of that there was controversial issues around using of it. The aim of this revision is to present proponents and opponents perspective regarding using of ECT with MDD disorder according to reviews , meta analyses, and randomized clinical trials. Proponents of using ECT with major depressive disorder
