This study is testing a new, non-invasive brain stimulation technique called Temporal Interference (TI) stimulation. It aims to see if TI can safely help awaken adults who have been in a minimally conscious state or vegetative state for at least 28 days. The goal is to provide a …

This study is testing if a newer drug called obinutuzumab works better than the current standard treatment for primary membranous nephropathy, a serious autoimmune kidney disease. It will involve about 144 adults whose disease is still active despite initial medication. The main …

This study is testing whether a clot-busting drug called tenecteplase can help stroke patients who arrive at the hospital more than 4.5 hours after symptoms begin. Researchers will give the drug to 890 Chinese stroke patients who are not eligible for standard clot-removal surgery…

This study aims to see if the standard 6-month treatment for asymptomatic tuberculosis can be safely shortened to 4 or even 3 months. It will enroll 426 people in China who have TB but no symptoms. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the standard treatment or…

This large, real-world study aims to find out which antiviral treatments work best for adults with chronic hepatitis B over the long term. Researchers will follow 33,000 patients for up to 5 years to see which drug regimens are most effective at preventing liver cancer and helpin…

This study aims to find the best lab test for diagnosing a rare autoimmune disease called MOGAD, which affects the brain and nerves. Researchers will compare two different testing methods using blood samples from 240 people, including those suspected of having MOGAD and healthy c…

This study is testing if a new, much shorter one-month tuberculosis (TB) prevention treatment works as well as the standard three-month treatment. It involves over 3,500 students and school staff in China who have been exposed to someone with active TB at school but do not have t…
