Aims: The ICMR INDIAB-17 study revealed a diabetes prevalence of 11.4% in India, emphasizing the need for effective treatment for glycemic control. A Phase IV study was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a Fixed Dose Combination (FDC) of Remogliflozin, Metformin and Vildagliptin (RMV) in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients uncontrolled on Metformin plus SGLT2 inhibitor or Metformin plus DPP4 inhibitor dual therapy.

There is limited data comparing two gliflozins on their effect on biomarkers in diabetic patients with chronic heart failure. A prospective, multicenter, active controlled, double-arm, investigator-initiated, interventional study enrolled 250 adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and comorbid congestive heart failure (CHF; left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] <40%; N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide [NT-proBNP] >600 pg/mL). A total of 125 patients were allocated each to a remogliflozin (R) and empagliflozin (E) group and followed up for 24 weeks.

Introduction: Azelnidipine, a selective calcium channel blocker, effectively lowers blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) in hypertensive patients, as demonstrated in a retrospective real-world evidence (RWE) study in Indian patients.

Materials And Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study that included 882 patients aged 18 years or older who had been on azelnidipine treatment for the last 3 months for mild to moderate hypertension (HTN). A structured proforma was utilized to gather data from prescribing physicians to assess the efficacy of azelnidipine (8 and 16 mg) as monotherapy or in combination with other antihypertensive drugs.

Background Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting is a common and unpleasant treatment-related side effect reported by cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. Akynzeo® or NEPA (NEtupitant + PAlonosetron) is the first fixed combination of netupitant and palonosetron that targets both critical pathways involved in emesis while providing a convenient, single oral dose therapy. The current study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of NEPA in a real-world setting in India.

Introduction: Itraconazole follows non-linear pharmacokinetics and hence is recommended once daily, but in real-world practice, is commonly prescribed as twice daily. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of super-bioavailable-itraconazole-130 mg (SB-130) and conventional-itraconazole-200 mg (CITZ-200) once daily compared with conventional-itraconazole-100 mg (CITZ-100) twice daily in glabrous tinea.

Methods: A total of 261 eligible patients were enrolled in this prospective, randomized, clinical study from December-2021 to August-2022 at seven centers in India.

Background: The antihypertensive agent telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker with a terminal elimination half-life of 24 h and has a high lipophilicity, thereby enhancing its bioavailability. Another antihypertensive agent, cilnidipine is a calcium antagonist and has dual mode of action on the calcium channels. This study aimed at determining effect of these drugs on ambulatory blood pressure (BP) levels.

Introduction: Owing to pharmacokinetic challenges of itraconazole, super-bioavailable itraconazole (SB) was developed and recently approved in strengths of 50mg and 65mg. But comparative study was lacking between these two strengths in glabrous tinea (dermatophytosis) management. Hence, this study was planned to compare the efficacy of both these strengths in dermatophytosis.

Background: Dengue fever is the most prevalent mosquito-borne viral disease in the world, with 390 million dengue infections occurring every year. There is an unmet medical need to develop a safe, effective and affordable dengue vaccine against all four Dengue serotype viruses-DENV1, DENV-2, DENV-3 and DENV-4. Panacea Biotec Ltd (PBL) has developed a cell culture-derived, live-attenuated, lyophilized Tetravalent Dengue Vaccine (TDV).

Objective: The present study compared the pharmacokinetics of two (1 mg) tacrolimus formulations (test (generic from Panacea) and reference (innovator from Astellas)) after a single-dose administration as per the European Medicine Agency (EMA) guidelines to grant marketing authorization.

Materials And Methods: This study was a randomized, open-label, balanced, two-treatment, two-period, two-sequences, single-dose, truncated-area, crossover design with a washout period of 19 days between the phases. Healthy subjects aged 18 - 45 years (both inclusive) were included.

In this paper, we propose a novel technique for slow light experiments using electromagnetically induced transparency using a two-dimensional magneto optical trap (2D-MOT). A compact 2D-MOT design efficient for quantum memory applications with adjustable optical depth (OD) is proposed. We estimated the OD for our 2D-MOT setup and found that light group velocities as low as 1.
