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.
This is a study to compare the safety and immune response of a pentavalent DTaP-HB-PRP~T combined vaccine with Tritanrix-HepB/Hib™, when both are given concomitantly with OPV at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age.
Rosiglitazone (RSG) has been tested in clinical studies and is approved by the FDA as a treatment for type II diabetes mellitus, a disease that occurs when the body is unable to effectively use glucose. RSG XR, the investigational drug used in this study, is an extended-release form of RSG. This study tests whether RSG XR safely provides clinical benefit to people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD) when combined with one of the currently approved AD medications, Aricept®, Razadyne® or Exelon®. RSG XR is a new approach to AD therapy and this study tests a new way to treat AD by testing whether one's genetic makeup affects the response to the study drug. Clinical data suggesting that RSG may benefit AD patients was first seen in a small study performed at the University of Washington and then from a larger GSK study conducted in Europe and New Zealand. In the first study, subjects receiving RSG once daily for 6 months scored significantly better on 3 tests of memory and thought than those who did not receive RSG. In the GSK study, those that appeared to benefit most from treatment with RSG XR had a specific genetic pattern. They did not have the gene that caused them to produce the protein apolipoprotein E e4 (APOE e4). Subjects who have the APOE e4 gene may have two copies, one from each parent, or they may have only one APOE e4 gene meaning that they inherited either the APOE e2 or APOE e3 version of the gene, instead of APOE e4, from one of their parents. Subjects with one copy of the APOE e4 gene remained at their same level of thinking ability while those with two copies of the APOE e4 gene, continued to worsen during the 6-month treatment. The current study will more directly test the effectiveness or RSG XR on people who either have or lack the APOE e4 gene.
To answer the question of overall benefit: risk of celecoxib when compared to two most commonly prescribe traditional (non-selective) nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the treatment of arthritis pain. For this purpose, patients with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis with or at risk of developing cardiovascular disease will be recruited. The cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and renal safety and symptomatic benefit in each treatment group will be assessed accordingly.
Objectives are to evaluate whether idrabiotaparinux (SSR126517E) is as least as effective as a standard warfarin treatment to prevent recurrence of venous thromboembolic events (VTE) in patients with symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE) with or without symptomatic deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and to assess its safety (bleedings) versus warfarin.
This study will evaluate safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals' pneumococcal conjugate vaccine compared to Prevenar™ when co-administered with DTPw-HBV/Hib and OPV or IPV vaccines, according to 2 different schedules: 6-10-14 weeks or 2-4-6 months of age. The study has 2 groups. - One group of subjects will receive a 3-dose primary vaccination with the GSK Biologicals' pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (three different lots will be used and randomly allocated). - The 2nd group of subjects will receive a 3-dose primary vaccination with Prevenar™. All children will receive concomitantly DTPw-HBV/Hib and OPV or IPV vaccines. This protocol posting deals with objectives & outcome measures of the primary study. The objectives & outcome measures of the Booster study are presented in a separate protocol posting (NCT number =00547248).
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and Oceania. The aim of this research study is to compare the efficacy of adding inhaled preprandial insulin to glimepiride compared to adding rosiglitazone to glimepiride for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and to verify its safety (hypoglycaemia, pulmonary function, body weight, insulin antibodies and side effects)
The purpose of this study is to support the registration of the pentavalent DTaP-HB-PRP~T vaccine in countries that follow the World Health Organization-Expanded Program of Immunization (WHO-EPI) schedule. The primary objective is: - To demonstrate that the pentavalent DTaP-HB-PRP~T combined vaccine does not induce a lower immune response than Tritanrix-HepB/Hib™ in terms of the seroprotection rate to hepatitis B (HB) one month after a 3-dose primary series at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age. The secondary objectives are: - To describe in each group the immunogenicity parameters one month after the 3-dose primary series at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age; and - To evaluate the overall safety in terms of any adverse events in the first 28 days after each injection and any serious adverse events during the entire trial.
Aims of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic profile and evaluate the safety, efficacy and tolerability, of tamsulosin hydrochloride as treatment in children with a neuropathic bladder, over the course of 12 months of active treatment.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact on tumor progression as evaluated by progression-free survival (PFS) of epoetin alfa plus standard supportive care as compared with standard supportive care alone (packed red blood cell (RBC) transfusions), for treating anemia according to label guidance in patients with metastatic breast cancer receiving standard chemotherapy.
This study will provide pre-approval drug access to lapatinib, in combination with capecitabine, to patients whose breast cancer had progressed on other therapies
