There are about 3709 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Thailand. 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.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an emerging problem in patients with treated HIV. Antiretroviral therapy associated renal dysfunction has been predominantly described in terms of reduced glomerular filtration (eGFR). Proteinuria is a key component of CKD and may occur in the absence of significant reductions in eGFR. This substudy is an exploration of changes in urinary protein excretion in a randomised, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MVC as a switch for either nucleoside or nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (N(t)RTI) or boosted protease inhibitors (PI/r) in HIV-1 infected individuals with stable, well-controlled plasma HIV-RNA while taking their first N(t)RTI + PI/r regimen of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART).
This substudy is a prospective, observational, open-label, randomised study within the MARCH study. The purpose of this substudy is to investigate the changes in cerebral function parameters at 5 timepoints over 96 weeks of the three different treatment arms within the MARCH study. The investigators hypothesise that there will be improvements in cerebral function in those patients randomised, as part of the parent study, into the maraviroc arms. the assessments in this CNS substudy will include: 1. Neurocognitive function as assessed by a computerised testing battery called CogState; 2. changes in cerebral metabolites as measured via 1H Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (1H-MRS) In those randomised to the maraviroc arms (arms 2 and 3) there is an optional Lumbar puncture at week 48. The cerebrospinal fluid will be used to measure maraviroc levels and an ultrasensitive CSF HIV-1 viral load. These results will be matched with levels in the plasma.
Patients with knee arthroplasty usually performed under spinal anesthesia with a single-shot femoral nerve block and periarticular block, so we would like to know the plasma concentration of bupivacaine in these patients.
This is a 24-week, phase III multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study. The study will have 9 scheduled visits and a telephone contact Follow-up visit one week following the end of study treatment. The study primary endpoint is -Clinic visit trough (pre-bronchodilator and pre-dose) FEV1 on Treatment Day 169 Trough FEV1 on Treatment Day 169 is defined as the mean of the FEV1 values obtained 23 and 24 hours after dosing on Treatment Day 168 (i.e. at the Week 24 visit). Secondary endpoints are; - Mean TDI focal score at Week 24 - Weighted mean clinic visit FEV1 over 0 to 6 hours post-dose at Visit 2 (Day 1) Eligible subjects will be randomised to GSK573719/GW642444 125/25mcg, GSK573719/GW642444 62.5/25mcg and placebo treatment groups in a 1:1:1 ratio such that of the planned 573 total number of randomised subjects, approximately 191 subjects will be randomised to each active treatment group and 191 subjects will be randomised to placebo. All treatments will be administered once daily in the morning by inhalation using a Novel Dry Powder Inhaler (NDPI). There will be a total of 9 study clinic visits conducted on an outpatient basis. Subjects who meet the eligibility criteria at Screening (Visit.1) will complete a 7 to 14 day Run-In period followed by a 24-week Treatment period. Clinic visits will be at screening, Randomisation (Day1), Day2, after 4, 8, 12, 16, and 24-weeks of treatment, and 1 day after the Week 24 Visit (also referred as Treatment Day 169). A Follow-Up contact for adverse event assessment will be conducted by telephone approximately 7 days after Visit 9 or the Early Withdrawal Visit. The total duration of subject participation, including Follow-up will be approximately 27 weeks. All subjects will be provided with albuterol/salbutamol for use on an "as-needed" basis throughout the Run-In and Study Treatment Periods. At screening, pre-bronchodilator spirometry will be performed followed by post-albuterol/salbutamol spirometry testing. Post-albuterol/salbutamol FEV1 and FEV1/FVC values will be used to determine subject eligibility. To further characterise bronchodilator responsiveness, post ipratropium testing will be conducted following completion of post-albuterol/salbutamol spirometry. Spirometry will be conducted at each post-randomisation clinic visit. Six hour post-dose serial spirometry will be conducted at Visit 2. Trough spirometry will be obtained 23 and 24 hours after the previous day's dose of blinded study medication at Visits 3 to 9. Assessments of dyspnea will be obtained using the Baseline and Transition Dyspnoea Index (BDI/TDI) which is an interviewer based instrument. At Visit 2, the severity of dyspnoea at baseline will be assessed using the BDI. At subsequent visits (Visits 4, 6, and 8) change from baseline will be assessed using the TDI. Administration of the BDI and TDI should be done prior to spirometry and any other study-related procedures Disease specific health status will be evaluated using the St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) and COPD Assessment Test (CAT), at baseline (Visit 2) and Visits 4, 6 and 8. The occurrence of adverse events will be evaluated throughout the study beginning at Visit 2. SAEs will be collected over the same time period as for AEs. However, any SAEs assessed as related to study participation (e.g., study treatment, protocol-mandated procedures, invasive tests, or change in existing therapy) or related to a GSK concomitant medication, will be recorded from the time a subject consents to participate in the study up to and including any follow up contact. Vital signs (blood pressure and pulse rate), 12-lead ECGs and standard clinical laboratory tests (hematology and blood biochemistry) will be obtained at selected clinic visits. For determination of subject disposition, subjects will be considered to have completed the study, upon completion of Visit 9. There is no plan to provide any of the active study treatments for compassionate use following study completion. The Intent-to-Treat (ITT) population will be the primary population of interest, and is defined as all randomised subjects who have received at least one dose of the randomised study medication during the Treatment Period. Supplementary study conduct information not mandated to be present in this protocol is provided in the accompanying Study Procedures Manual (SPM). The SPM will provide the site personnel with administrative and detailed technical information that does not impact subject safety.

This study will compare and assess the prevalence of osteopenia and vitamin D deficiency as well as effects of TDF on the patients' bone among HIV positive and negative patients.
1. To describe the morbidity and clinical characteristics among HIV-infected patients and HIV-uninfected patients. 2. To identify the risk factors for the complication or morbidity among HIV-infected patients and HIV-uninfected patients. 3. To describe the mortality among HIV-infected patients and HIV-uninfected patients. 4. To identify the risk factors for the cause of death among HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected patients.
The ASIAN HF Registry is the first prospective multinational Asian registry of patients with symptomatic HF (stage C) including both HFrEF (ejection fraction <40%) and HFpEF (ejection fraction ≥50%), with the broad purpose of determining the mortality (incidence) burden of HF in Asian patients, and more specifically to define the burden and risk factors of Sudden Cardiac Deaths (SCD), as well as the sociocultural barriers to preventive device therapy. The study further aim to study the genetic variants associated with HFrEF versus HFpEF in our large Asian cohort. This proposed registry is expected to advance fundamental understanding of the burden and predictors of preventable death among Asian patients with HF. The knowledge gained will be critical for guiding resource allocation and planning preventive strategies to address the unmet and growing clinical needs of patients with cardiovascular disease in Asia.
