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.
For treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1(HIV-1), publicly funded programmes tend to follow World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines to use a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) combined with two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) for first-line antiretroviral therapy (ART); however, there is a need for further data on the best treatment options for people with HIV-1 who have virological failure with this first-line regimen. The number of patients failing on their first-line regimen is increasing thereby requiring a switch to second-line treatment to reduce accumulation of drug-resistance mutations, disease progression, HIV transmission, and death. WHO guidelines recommend second-line antiretroviral therapy for adults consisting of two NRTIs + a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor (PI); atazanavir (ATV) plus ritonavir (RTV) or lopinavir (LPV)/RTV are the preferred boosted PI options. This study is conducted to demonstrate non-inferior antiviral activity at 48 weeks of a dolutegravir (DTG) containing regimen compared to a WHO-recommended standard of care regimen for second line treatment, LPV/RTV + two NRTIs, in HIV-1 infected patients failing first line therapy. This study comprises of a Screening Phase (approximately 28 to 42 days), a Randomized Phase (Day 1 to Week 48 plus a 4-week treatment extension), and a Continuation Phase. Approximately 612 subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive DTG 50 milligram (mg) once daily or LPV/RTV (800/200 mg once daily or 400/100 mg twice daily, in accordance with investigator decision and local label), each added to an investigator selected background regimen of two NRTIs at least one of which needs to be fully active based on viral resistance testing at Screening. Subjects randomized to the LPV/RTV arm will either (i) continue receiving LPV/RTV and complete the study after the 4-week treatment extension at Week 52, or (ii) switch to the DTG arm prior to study completion at Week 52 and continue to have access to DTG in the Continuation Phase. Subjects randomized to receive DTG who successfully complete 52 weeks of treatment and subjects originally randomized to receive LPV/RTV but switched to DTG prior to Week 52 will continue to have access to DTG until it is either locally approved and commercial supplies are available to patients or the patient no longer derives clinical benefit, or the patient meets a protocol-defined reason for discontinuation.
The purpose of this study was to collect safety and tolerability data on LCZ696 in eligible PARADIGM-HF patients who received open-label investigational drug. The parent PARADIGM-HF (NCT01035255) trial was terminated early due to compelling efficacy of LCZ696 in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) after the final pre-specified interim analysis in March 2014.
The purpose of this study is to test if Symbicort (budesonide/formoterol) Turbuhaler is effective in treating asthma when used 'as needed' in patients with milder asthma. The efficacy of Symbicort 'as needed' will be compared with Pulmicort (budesonide) Turbuhaler twice daily plus terbutaline Turbuhaler 'as needed'
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of OMS721 in patients with thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA).
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of mold making silicone toe separator on reducing the hallux valgus angle. In addition, this study aims to determine the compliance of mold making silicone toe separator, the change in pain level and, including, the satisfaction of the participants after using mold making silicone toe separator.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy between video capsule endoscopy and CT enterography in diagnosis of obscure gastrointestinal bleeding.
This is an observational study to identify the aetiology and factors associated with outcome of community-acquired sepsis and severe sepsis in Northeast Thailand. Potential study participants will be adult patients who are presented at the hospital with community-acquired sepsis. Clinical specimens (including blood, urine, sputum and throat swabs) will be collected from each participant on admission for culture, PCR and serological tests, and other laboratory tests, including inflammatory markers and genotyping. Participants' treatment will be closely monitored during the duration of their hospital stay. Blood will be again collected at 72 hours after admission. Participants will be contacted at 28 days after admission to determine clinical outcome by phone interview with standardized script. There will be a total of 5,020 patients enrolled in this study over 3 years.
The purpose of this study to evaluated Long term outcome after serial Lidocaine infusion when compared with placebo in peripheral neuropathic pain patients in acute stage (less than 6 months) at 3 months after first time of infusion
This is a prospective, double-blind, double-dummy, multicenter, comparative study. A total of 300 subjects will be randomized to treatment on Day 1, of which a minimum of 50 female subjects must be enrolled that display moderate glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency (>=40% - <70% of the site median G6PD value). Subjects must have a blood smear that is positive for P. vivax at entry. Subjects will be randomized 2:1 to receive tafenoquine (TQ)/chloroquine(CQ) or the active comparator primaquine (PQ)/CQ. All subjects will receive CQ on Days 1 to 3, followed by TQ or PQ and matching placebo beginning on Day 1 or 2. Tafenoquine, or matching placebo, will be given as a single, 300mg dose. Subjects will receive PQ (15mg once daily) or matching placebo for 14 days. The duration of the study is 180 days, including screening and randomization to treatment (Day 1), three in-hospital days (Days 1-3), four out-patient visits while on treatment with study medication (Days 5, 8, 11 and 15) and seven follow-up visits (Days 22, 29, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180). The primary safety data collected in this study will help to understand the hemolysis risk to both G6PD-normal and G6PD-deficient subjects. The efficacy data produced from this study will support the results for sister study TAF112582, the pivotal phase III efficacy and safety study of the TQ program.
This is a prospective, noncomparative study to assess the pharmacodynamics of meropenem during early phase of severe sepsis and septic shock in critically ill patients in an intensive care unit. Clinical and laboratory data such as age,sex, body weight, electrolyte, vital signs, APACHE II score, SOFA score, BUN, Cr and blood culture will be collected. Twelve patients will be enrolled in this study. Meropenem pharmacokinetic will be carried out during the first and second dose after 1g meropenem administration. Blood samples (approximately 3 ml) will be obtained by direct venepuncture at the following time: 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 12, 14 and 16 h. Meropenem assays will be performed by modified method of Ozkan et al. (Biomed. Chromatogr., 2001). The pharmacokinetics of meropenem will be modelled from concentration-time profile using compartmental model. Monte Carlo simulation to assess PK/PD index as 40% and 100% T>MIC will be conducted and the results will be reported as % PTA (Probability Target Attainment) and %CFR (Cumulative Faction Response)
