NCT ID: NCT03199170 Completed - Analgesia Clinical Trials

Effect of Bilateral Quadratus Lumborum Block for Pain Relief in Patients With Cesarean Section

Start date: September 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Cesarean section commonly induces moderate to severe pain for 48 hours. These patients have additional compelling reasons to provide adequate pain relief as early mobilization is a key factor to prevent the risk of thromboembolic event which is increased during pregnancy. Beside these, patients need to be pain free to takecare for their newborn and breastfeed them. Poorly controlled pain after cesarean section also increases risk of chronic pain and postpartum depression. Intrathecal morphine is considered the "gold standard" for postoperative pain relief after cesarean delivery. The duration of analgesic effect of morphine extend to 12-24 hours. Its widespread use is due to its favorable pharmacokinetic profile, ease of administration and low cost. Although intrathecal morphine is highly effective, its use is associated with undesirable adverse effect particularly nausea, vomiting and pruritus which reduce overall patients' satisfaction. More serious complication is the risk of delayed maternal respiratory depression. The Quadratus Lumborum block was first described in 2007 which demonstrates a spread to the paravertebral space, thus leads to a more extensive block to T5-L1 nerve branches and a long lasting block with the potential to provide visceral pain relief. Therefore, this block has an evolving role in postoperative analgesia for many lower abdominal surgeries. As the safety is concerned, there has been one report of a patient with unilateral hip flexion and knee extension weakness leading to unplanned overnight admission following lateral quadratus lumborum block after laparoscopic gynaecological operation. If the result favors effective, it will have the advantage of a combination with intrathecal opioid to prolong the pain free period after cesarean section which has about 4,000 cases per year.

NCT ID: NCT03199053 Completed - Clinical trials for Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Dapagliflozin and Saxagliptin in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) Aged 10 to Below 18 Years Old

Start date: October 11, 2017
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of this study is to determine if there will be a greater mean reduction from baseline in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) achieved after 26 weeks of oral double-blind add-on therapy of dapagliflozin or saxagliptin compared to placebo in paediatric T2DM patients with HbA1c levels of 6.5 to 10.5% on diet and exercise and metformin, insulin, or metformin plus insulin.

NCT ID: NCT03198962 Completed - HIV Infections Clinical Trials

Use of Amphetamine-type Stimulants & Its Relationship With HIV Incidence and Antiretroviral Adherence Among MSM and TG

Start date: November 15, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

There are two stages in the study. In Stage 1, 2000 Thai MSM, MSW and TGW/TGSW will be screened at the Thai Red Cross Anonymous Clinic (TRCAC) or Besides walk-in clients of TRCAC, potential participants could be referred to TRCAC by Rainbow Sky Association of Thailand (RSAT), Service Workers In Group (SWING) Foundation and Sisters Foundation. Each participant will complete a short standardized questionnaire on risk behavior, including use of amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS) and other drugs. HIV testing will be done following usual HIV testing and counseling (HTC) guidelines. Stage 1 will collect data on ATS use in the community. The results from stage 1 will also be used to stratify participants for inclusion in stage 2 of the study. Participants from the screening will be invited to participate in stage 2 of the study, which is the longitudinal cohort study. Recruitment will be stratified by HIV status and ATS use as listed in to ensure an adequate number of ATS users for data analysis. Participants in stage 2 will follow-up every 6 months for 18 months.

NCT ID: NCT03196297 Completed - Haemophilia A Clinical Trials

A Trial Evaluating Efficacy and Safety of Prophylactic Administration of Concizumab in Patients With Severe Haemophilia A Without Inhibitors

explorer™5
Start date: August 16, 2017
Phase: Phase 2

NCT ID: NCT03194880 Completed - HIV Clinical Trials

Alere COMBO and Alere q Detect in an HIV PrEP Program in Thailand

Start date: December 8, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Two new rapid HIV tests by Alere™ have the potential to substantially decrease the window period for rapid tests. First, the Alere™ HIV Combo is a rapid fourth generation test. The performance in a laboratory based setting was recently assessed at the Thai Red Cross Anonymous Clinic Laboratory in Bangkok, Thailand (personal communication). Of 50 confirmed acute HIV samples, Alere™ HIV Combo could detect 37 (74%), while none of these 50 cases could be identified by the currently used third generation tests. These data have not yet been published, but the preliminary results indicate a very favorable performance of the Alere™ HIV Combo in a facility-based laboratory setting. Second, the Alere™ q HIV-1/2 Detect is a qualitative, cartridge based, nucleic acid amplification test designed for Point of Care use. Data from several early infant diagnosis studies in Sub-Saharan African countries have assessed the performance of the Alere™ q HIV-1/2 Detect. The test was performed in the field, by a range of health professionals, from nurses and laboratory technicians to medical doctors. The pooled analysis showed a sensitivity of 99.07% (95%CI 95.48 - 99.95%) and a specificity of 99.94% (99.72-100%).

NCT ID: NCT03189719 Completed - Clinical trials for Esophageal Neoplasms

First-line Esophageal Carcinoma Study With Pembrolizumab Plus Chemo vs. Chemo (MK-3475-590/KEYNOTE-590)

Start date: July 25, 2017
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) versus placebo plus SOC chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-FU as first-line treatment in participants with locally advanced or metastatic esophageal carcinoma. The overall primary efficacy hypotheses are as follows: 1. In participants with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), participants whose tumors are programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive (defined as combined positive score [CPS] ≥10), ESCC participants whose tumors are PD-L1 positive (CPS ≥10), and in all participants, overall survival (OS) is superior with pembrolizumab plus SOC chemotherapy compared with placebo plus SOC chemotherapy. 2. In participants with ESCC, participants whose tumors are PD-L1 positive (CPS ≥10), and in all participants, progression-free survival (PFS) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 as assessed by investigator is superior with pembrolizumab plus SOC chemotherapy compared with placebo plus SOC chemotherapy.
