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.
After Initiation of HAART in peoples who living with HIV/AIDS in Thailand by the year 2000, rapidly expanded HAART access of national project has been promoted in 2004. Free ARVs (For CD4<200cell/cu.mm. or in symptomatic HIV with CD4<250 cell/cu.mm. )and CD4 monitoring has been available. The first-line regimen is d4T+3TC+NVP in mainly the first time (Naive) patients. CD4 response ), rate of opportunistic infection, and neurological outcomes were measured. Rate of ARV change, adverse events,treatment failure, TB co-infection rate, percent changing to EFV-based regimen or PI-based regimen were recorded. Any Adverse Events including, Sever rash, Severe Hepatitis, Lipid abnormalities, Severe Anemia and Other, common AEs will be analysed.
Neurological manifestations of Cerebral toxoplasmosis or Toxoplasmic encephalitis (TE) in most advance stage HIV infected patients composed of fever, headache, alteration of consciousness with focal neurological signs/symptoms such as include hemiparesis, cranial nerve palsies, and ataxia. Generalised convulsions, in ¾ of patients. Moreover meningeal irritation sign or herniation sign may be presented as life threatening condition
This is a Phase III trial designed to demonstrate that casopitant (GW679769) plus dexamethasone and ondansetron is more effective in the prevention of vomiting than dexamethasone and ondansetron alone following the administration of moderately emetogenic chemotherapy.
The primary purpose of this study is to find the dose of Efavirenz for young children. The safety and how the medication is tolerated will also be studied.
To determine if ZD6474 a new investigational drug, is effective in treating Non Small Lung Cancer and if so, how it compares with another type of anti cancer therapy chemotherapy, Erlotinib
Herpes infection is an important co-factor in HIV transmission. A recent meta-analysis demonstrated that HSV infection contributed to a 2-fold increased risk of HIV transmission. Suppressive therapy with acyclovir has been a method proposed to reduce HIV transmission. We are conducting a randomized controlled cross-over trial to evaluate the effect of acyclovir suppressive therapy on HIV genital shedding in women co-infected with HIV-1 and Herpes Simplex Virus Type-2 (HSV-2) in Thailand.
The trial will identify the best dose of the synthetic peroxide RBx11160 to treat uncomplicated malaria. Patients will be treated over 7 days with daily doses of 50, 100 or 200 mg RBx11160. The study is designed to assess the antimalarial activity and safety of 3 dose levels of RBx 11160 administered once daily for 7 consecutive days. The primary endpoint will be the time to 90% parasite clearance. In future regulatory studies, RBx 11160 is likely to be administered in combination with another antimalarial agent since the development plan follows the current recommendation of WHO for the treatment of uncomplicated malaria. However, it is critical to gather data on RBx 11160 when used as monotherapy in adult patients suffering from acute uncomplicated P. falciparum malaria. In malaria-endemic regions, an adult population is defined on the basis of immune status rather than the legal age of consent. Thus, patients as young as 13 years of age can be enrolled provided consent has been obtained from a legal guardian in accordance with local practices and regulations. This study will be conducted in compliance with International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP).
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of TMC125 200 mg twice daily as part of an antiretroviral therapy including TMC114/rtv and an investigator selected optimized background in HIV-1 infected patients who have participated in a DUET trial (TMC125-C206 or TMC125 C216) and have met the definition of virologic failure at Week 24 or later in these trials.
Most anti-HIV regimens include a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI); however, some individuals fail on these regimens. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the protease inhibitor (PI) lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) in HIV infected individuals who are failing an anti-HIV regimen that includes an NNRTI.
The purpose of the study is to assess the survival of patients treated with Litx™ versus standard of care therapies in the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and to demonstrate the safety of Litx™ therapy. Litx™ consists of a light-activated drug, talaporfin sodium (LS11, Light Sciences Oncology, Bellevue, Washington), and a light generating device, composed of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), that is energized by a power controller and percutaneously placed in the target tissue inside the body.
