The protocol contains a study plan on which the clinical trial is based.
Protocol is designed in such a way that it safeguards the health of the participants (while limiting their financial liability) and also answer specific research questions
Protocol lays out who, what, why, when, where, how about the clinical trial
It safeguards clinical trial integrityProtocol Understanding: Overview3Katalyst Healthcares & Life Sciences

Protocol is a set of rules. Consider that you are driving a car. You have to follow some set of rules while you are driving. Why are traffic rules required? These traffic rules ensures that the transportation occurs in smooth and safe way. Similarly in Clinical trials, the protocols were set up so that the transportation of clinical data across study teams is smooth and safe
CDISC is creating a standard called the Protocol Representation Model(PRM), which identifies, defines and describes over 300 common protocol elements and maps those elements to elements within the BRIDG model. The PRM model is intended as a standard to be used in designing a study, selecting investigative sites, developing data collection tools, and describing an analysis plan and study proceduresDo You Know:5Katalyst Healthcares & Life Sciences
CDISC: Clinical data interchange standards consortiumThe Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC) is an open, multidisciplinary, neutral, non-profit standards developing organization (SDO) that has been working through productive, consensus-based collaborative teams to develop global standards and innovations to streamline medical research and ensure a link with healthcare
BRIDG: Biomedical Research Integrated Domain Group CDISC BRIDG model is a unifying model of the domain of clinical research and research studies. It defines basic elements such as investigator, subject, study, intervention. It is used to keep all standards consistent. 5
Amending the protocol immediately after an issue is discovered contributes significantly to patient safety and overall success of the study
The following practices should be followed during the design of electronic CRFs:The protocol should determine what data should be collected on the CRF All data must be collected on the CRF if specified in the protocol
Do You Know:6Katalyst Healthcares & Life Sciences
A Clinical Trial Protocol is a document that describes the objective(s), design, methodology, statistical considerations, and organization of a clinical trial. - ICH-GCP Guidelines
Protocol Definition:7
Katalyst Healthcares & Life Sciences
The protocol gives the background and reason the trial is being conducted
The protocol contains a study plan on which the clinical trial is based. The plan is designed to safeguard the health of the participants (while limiting their financial liability) as well as answer specific research questions
The protocol describes, among other things, what types of people may participate in the trial; the schedule of tests, procedures, medications, and dosages; and the length of the study
While in a clinical trial, study participants are seen regularly by the research staff (usually medical doctors and/or nurses) to monitor their health and to determine the safety and effectiveness of the treatment(s) they are receiving

Herbal Medicines: Mainly whole, fragmented or cut plants, part of plants in an unprocessed state, usually in dried
form, but sometimes fresh. Herbal drugs are precisely defined by the botanical scientific name according to the
binomical system (genus, species, variety).
African traditional medicine: The total body of knowledge and techniques for the preparation and use of substances,
measures and practices that are based on the socio-cultural and religious bedrock of African communities, are
founded on personal experience and observations handed down from generation to generation, either verbally or in
writing, and are used for the diagnosis, prevention or elimination of imbalances in physical, mental or social well-

OBJECTIVES:
To investigate the safety of Sutherlandia frutescens (subsp. Microphylla) capsules in healthy adult volunteers by assessing, liver, kidney, muscle, metabolic, intestinal, cardiac and bone marrow function, as well as physiological and physical status.
STUDY DESIGN:
A randomized double blind placebo controlled study over a 3-month period. Volunteers will be screened at Visit 1 and eligible subjects will, at visit 2, be randomized to either Sutherlandia frutescens (subsp. Microphylla) 1 x 400 mg capsules b.i.d or a placebo capsule of similar appearance. Visits 3, 4 and 5 (final) will be scheduled at monthly intervals. Safety tests will be repeated at each of the study visits (except visit 2). Patients will enter adverse events and daily use of study medication in a subject diary. This will serve as a measure of compliance.
SUBJECTS:
Inclusion criteria Healthy males and females between 18 and 45 years of age will:
be informed of the nature of the study and will give written informed consent,
have body weights within 25% of the appropriate weight range,
have no significant diseases or clinically significant abnormal laboratory values during screening,
have 12 lead ECG without significant abnormalities,
be on no regular medical treatment,
be able to communicate effectively with study personnel Exclusion criteria
Any disease or condition which might compromise the haematopoietic, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, central nervous, cardiovascular, immunological, dermatological, gastrointestinal or any other body system.
