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.
This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of BI 10773 in type 2 diabetic patients in order to provide these data for approval for BI 10773 by regulatory authorities as an antidiabetic agent as add-on therapy to pioglitazone alone or in combination with metformin.
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for more than 200,000 new cases of cancer and over 100,000 cancer deaths annually in the World (Ferlay, et al., 2004). It is estimated that there were about 15,000 new cases of RCC in the region that excludes the Americas, European Union and Japan. Renal cell carcinomas arise from the proximal tubal epithelium are more common in males than in females with an overall lifetime risk of 1 in 75 and a median age of diagnosis of 65 years. Everolimus (Certican®) has been approved since 2003 in more than 60 countries for the prevention of organ rejection in patients with renal and cardiac transplantation. Everolimus (RAD001) is a derivative of rapamycin, which acts as a signal transduction inhibitor. It targets mTOR, a key protein kinase regulating cell growth, proliferation, and survival. The mTOR pathway activity is modulated by the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B AKT (AKT) pathway, a pathway known to be deregulated in numerous human cancers. RAD001 (Afinitor®) has been investigated as an anticancer agent based on its potential to act: - directly on the tumor cells by inhibiting tumor cell growth and proliferation; - indirectly by inhibiting angiogenesis leading to reduced tumor vascularity (via potent inhibition of tumor cell hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) activity, VEGF production, and VEGF-induced proliferation of endothelial cells). Primary: To evaluate the PFS rate over time. Secondary: - To evaluate the disease control rate (stable disease [SD] + partial response [PR] + complete response [CR]); - To evaluate the objective response rate (ORR; where ORR = CR + PR) and duration; - To describe the safety profile of RAD001.
SB-252263 (Tafenoquine, TQ) is an 8-aminoquinoline (8-AQ) antimalarial drug being developed by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC) and Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV). TQ is currently being developed for the radical cure of acute P. vivax malaria in combination with standard doses of CQ, which is 1500 mg over 3 days. The current gold standard for radical cure of P. vivax malaria in many areas of the world is chloroquine (CQ) for clearance of the acute parasitemia immediately followed by primaquine (PQ) to clear the liver stages of the parasite and prevent disease relapse. The 8-AQ class of drugs, including PQ, is hemolytic in subjects with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency. The current study will identify a dose of TQ within the target efficacious dose range that has a hemolytic effect similar to or less than PQ 15 mg OD x 14 days (i.e. ≤ 25-30% hemoglobin decline in WHO class III G6PD-deficient subjects).
One-site dose sparing intradermal influenza vaccination in elderly had been studied but resulted in unsatisfactory outcomes. The investigators evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the two-site intradermal injection of influenza vaccine containing all 6 and 12 micrograms of hemagglutinin antigen per strain (with 4/10th and 8/10th of a regular 15 microgram HA/strain intramuscular vaccine respectively) in elderly over 60 years of age. An influenza vaccine administered intramuscularly at the standard dose is used as the reference vaccine.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immediate effect of traditional Thai massage on brain electrical activity in the patients with scapulocostal syndrome
This two-stage, multi-center, randomized, controlled, open-label study will investigate the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety of rituximab SC versus rituximab IV in participants with previously untreated follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Participants will be randomized to receive 375 milligrams per meter square (mg/m^2) rituximab as IV infusion or 1400 milligrams (mg) rituximab SC. In addition, participants will receive standard chemotherapy. Participants who achieved a complete or partial response (PR) after 8 treatment cycles, will receive maintenance treatment for a further maximum number of 12 cycles. Maintenance treatment cycles will be repeated every 8 weeks. This is a two-stage study. Stage 1 was designed to confirm the chosen rituximab SC dose resulting in comparable rituximab serum Ctrough levels compared with rituximab IV, when given as part of induction treatment every 3 weeks. Enrollment for Stage 2 started after the rituximab SC dose was established in Stage 1. Stage 2 aimed to further investigate the efficacy and safety of rituximab SC compared with rituximab IV. The anticipated time on study treatment is 96 weeks.
The project aims to evaluate the potential impact triple fortified rice grains, mixed into natural rice grains, can have on vitamin A status if fed to school children in Southern Thailand. Within a 60 day intervention study, changes in vitamin A status in young children fed the fortified rice compared to children consuming non-fortified rice will be assessed.
The purpose of this study is to determine mean or median of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) in Thai atopic asthmatic patients that divided into subgroups due to level of asthma control according to the global initiative for asthma guideline.
The purpose of this study is to compare the results skin prick tests using simple blood lancet (Vitrex®) with DuoTips among mite-sensitized subjects.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of combination therapy of vildagliptin/metformin in patients with T2DM inadequately controlled with metformin 1,000 mg/day.
