There are about 1249 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Philippines. 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.
Ticagrelor is a new, reversible binding, anti-platelet medication. Anti-platelet medications work to prevent the formation of blood clots. Ticagrelor is being developed as a treatment for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). ACS is a term that is used to describe both heart attacks in progress or the imminent threat of a heart attack. ACS is usually caused by the formation of a blood clot in an artery that partially or totally blocks the blood supply to a portion of the heart muscle. Ticagrelor will be compared with clopidogrel to determine which drug, when either is used in conjunction with aspirin, is better at reducing deaths from vascular causes, future heart attacks and/or strokes in patients with ACS.
The purpose of this randomized, double blind, double dummy, multicenter study was to evaluate the efficacy of risperidone long-acting injectable (LAI) monotherapy in comparison with placebo in the prevention of a mood episode in treatment of patients with bipolar I disorder. Oral olanzapine was used to assess the validity of the study design. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of risperidone LAI versus placebo in the prevention of a mood episode (recurrence event) in patients with bipolar I disorder after a 12-week (3 month) stabilization period on risperidone LAI, as measured by the time to recurrence of any mood episode. Risperidone LAI has been approved by the FDA in the USA for the treatment of patients with schizophrenia and for the prevention of mood recurrences in bipolar I disorder, as monotherapy or add-on treatment. It is approved at EMEA and other European and non-European health authorities for the treatment of patients with schizophrenia, too.
The purpose of this study is to test an investigational drug, vinflunine (BMS-710485), in combination with gemcitabine in patients with Transitional Cell Carcinoma who cannot be treated with cisplatin. This study will help to determine whether vinflunine in combination with gemcitabine will extend the time period until further growth of the tumor more than gemcitabine alone.
The purpose of this study is to prospectively assess the long-term outcomes (benefits and risks) associated with entecavir (ETV) therapy as compared to other antivirals approved for the treatment of chronic HBV infection. For the China substudy, patients randomized to entecavir will have safety and efficacy assessments performed during the first year of the study.
This study will evaluate the longer-term glycemic effect of two medicines approved for initial treatment of type 2 diabetes. The study consists of a 2 week screening period (2 study visits), followed by an 80 week double-blind treatment period (11 study visits). Also, a sub-study was included to look at changes in bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine.
The purpose of this study is to see if Cediranib in combination with FOLFOX is effective in treating metastatic colorectal cancer and to see how it compares with Avastin (Bevacizumab) in combination with FOLFOX.
The purpose of this study is to assess the analgesic efficacy of flexibly-dosed pregabalin in the adjunctive treatment of subjects with cancer-induced bone pain.
Dengue is a common disease and a major health concern in the Philippines. Dengue is caused by a virus transmitted from the bite of an infected mosquito. The purpose of this study is to understand why some infants remain well or have a mild illness, and why other infants become very sick from this virus. Studies have shown that the mother's immune response to dengue can play a role in the infant's immune response and affect whether or not the infant becomes sick. This study will enroll up to 10,000 healthy infants 6-14 weeks old and their mothers in San Pablo City. At the first study visit, information about the mother and birth will be collected and blood samples will be taken from the mother and infant. The infant will have blood drawn at all 3 study visits. The infants will be followed until the age of 16 months. The information obtained from this study may help in the development and future testing of a safe and effective dengue vaccine.
This study was designed to evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of an oral dual tyrosine kinase inhibitor, lapatinib, versus placebo in women with early-stage ErbB2-overexpressing breast cancer who have completed their primary neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy and have no clinical or radiographic evidence of disease.
To compare efficacy and safety of Sunitinib and Capecitabine in subjects with advanced breast cancer who failed both a taxane and an anthracycline chemotherapy regimen or failed with a taxane and for whom further anthracycline therapy is not indicated
