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.
To demonstrate the additional benefit of roflumilast when added on to fixed-dose combination (FDC) LABA/ICS in the reduction of exacerbations in subjects with severe to very severe COPD.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' influenza candidate vaccine GSK2321138A when compared to non-influenza vaccine comparators in children 6 to 35 months of age. Recruitment will encompass at least 4 independent cohorts: a first cohort in the Northern Hemisphere (2011-2012), a second cohort in subtropical countries (2012), third cohort in the Northern Hemisphere (2012-2013) and a fourth cohort and additional independent cohorts possibly in NH countries (end 2013) and subtropical countries (beginning 2014).
The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of the combination therapy of linagliptin and metformin at submaximal doses in reduction of Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and metformin pre-specified gastro-intestinal (GI) side effects in treatment naive patients of with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
This phase 2 trial is aimed to obtain information on the safety and immunogenicity of the Vi-CRM197 in children and infants from various age groups in the Philippines where Typhoid Fever is highly endemic and an efficacious vaccine against this disease is very much needed.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune and chronic inflammatory disease that causes progressive damage to joints of the body, affecting the functional capacity. Effective management of patients with RA requires a multidisciplinary approach. Despite the various combinations, there is a significant population of RA patients who are not responding to these combinations or showing inadequate response to methotrexate alone. Hence, there is a need for a unique combination of drugs targeting different pathological process to yield the best results in those patients where prognosis is poor. Combination of revamilast with first line therapy like methotrexate could provide better treatment options to a larger population of RA patients having moderate to severe disease and who are inadequately controlled on one or the other DMARDs. This is randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study. The study will include patients with active RA receiving stable and maximum tolerated dose of MTX. Patients will be recruited after providing written informed consent. After screening and run in period (single blind placebo for 4 weeks), patients will be randomized (meeting randomization criteria) in 1:2:2:2 ratios to receive either one of three doses (Low, Medium and High) of revamilast or placebo along with MTX. The primary objective of the study is to determine the percentage of patients achieving ACR20 response at 12 weeks. Secondary objectives include determining percentage of patients with ACR50 and ACR70 response, change in DAS-28 score, change in serum CRP and ESR values and frequency and use of rescue medication. During the treatment period, there will be 5 further study visits at week 2, week 4, week 8, week 12, for efficacy, safety and tolerability assessment and visit at week 14 will be follow up visit.
The purpose of this trial is to determine whether delamanid is effective in the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR TB) in combination with other MDR TB medications during 6 months of treatment.
This study will follow a double blinded randomized controlled study design to enroll 20 apparently healthy 6 year old children. The children will be fed with two different nutrient fortified oat drinks labeled with stable isotopes of iron (Fe-57 or Fe-58 as NaFeEDTA). Fourteen days after consumption of meals on Day 2, blood will be drawn from the children for stable isotope measurements and iron absorption will be calculated.
This trial will evaluate use of BI 10773/linagliptin once daily (qd) fixed dose combination (FDC) in treatment naïve and metformin treated patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus to support approval by regulatory authorities.
This study will hypothesize that the use of a self fixating lightweight mesh in open inguinal repair is feasible in the Philippine setting. It will result in a comparable recurrence rate as published for the traditional Lichtenstein approach.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the addition of tralokinumab to standard asthma medication is effective in the treatment of adults with asthma
