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.
The main purpose of this study is to compare artesunate-mefloquine combination therapy given for 2 and 3 days at the same total dose for the treatment of uncomplicated falciparum malaria.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and reactogenicity of live attenuated influenza H5 vaccine candidate strain A/17/turkey/Turkey/05/133 (H5N2) manufactured by GPO, in Thailand to previously healthy Thais.
The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetic parameters for ABC and 3TC in HIV-infected children younger than 18 years old with body weight ≥ 14 kgs.
There are no data on efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of ATV/r-based HAART in HIV-infected Asian children. Therefore, the investigators aim to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety of ATV/r-based HAART in Thai HIV-infected children.
This study aim to compare cosmetic results between 3 trichophytic closure techniques for donor site (the trimming of upper, lower and both edge of linear incision) in hair transplantation.
Overt obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB) is a distinct clinical entity with significantly worse outcomes compared with colonic bleeding and upper GI bleeding. The mortality rate for patients with acute small bowel bleeding was 10%.1 Recently, a meta-analysis of 10 studies showed that VCE and DBE have an equivalent diagnosis yields in patients with obscure GIB (62% for VCE and 56% for DBE).2 The limitation of this meta-analysis study was that the included studies examined patients with occult OGIB and overt OGIB. Comparing with occult OGIB, patients with overt OGIB are more likely to present a significant lesion that causes a recurrent bleeding which subsequently increases risk of morbidity and mortality.3 According to emergency endoscopy concept from upper and lower GIB, patients with overt OGIB have been demonstrated the usefulness of urgent VCE and urgent DBE in a diagnosis tool with an impact on clinical management.4-7 Although previous studies showed promising data about the use of urgent enteroscopy, the debate about using VCE or DBE first in patients with massive overt OGIB is still uncertain. Thus in this study, we conducted the prospective study to compare urgent VCE with urgent DBE in patients with massive overt OGIB.
Hair disorders, expecialy scarring alopecia were diagnosed by scalp biopsy specimens in horizontal and vertical sections.(1-4) Data on hair density in Thais are lacking, although in Asians have more fewer hairs than whites.(5-7)Howevery, previous study from East Asian just had only one study and the data was more differently from West Asian and whites. Then this study was performed to evaluate hair density in Thais, and compared to previous study.
5% Minoxidil lotion was approved for using to stimulate hair growth in male androgenetic alopecia by US FDA science 1988. The mechanism of action still unclear. In general the 5% Minoxidil in solution is the first choice preparation for treatment, therefore allergic contact dermatitis to solution was report up to 5.7% (Ebner H. et al,1995). Propylene glycol which is the main solvent of these solution, was the main responsible to allergic contact dermatitis with positive patch test up to 81.8% (Friedman ES. et al. 2002) One of the alternative solution using butylene glycol as the solvent was invented to solve the problem. In Siriraj hospital the investigators using this new solvent and made our in house product called 5% Minoxidil milky lotion. However the efficacy and safety of the new solution have not been investigated. This study is conducted to evaluated efficacy and safety of 5% Minoxidil milky lotion compare with the classic solution in male androgenetic alopecia.
This multicenter, randomized, open label parallel-group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous versus intravenous MabThera/Rituxan (rituximab) in combination with CHOP chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated CD20-positive diffuse large B-Cell lymphoma. Patients will be randomized to receive either MabThera/Rituxan 1400 mg subcutaneously or MabThera/Rituxan 375 mg/m2 intravenously on Day 1 of each cycle for 8 cycles, in combination with 6-8 cycles of CHOP chemotherapy. Anticipated time on study treatment is 6 months.
The immediate release (IR) formulation of retigabine has been shown to be superior to placebo as adjunctive therapy in 3 adequate and well-controlled studies in subjects with drug-resistant partial-onset seizures (POS) who had previously failed to respond to two or more antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) and were still having seizures despite current treatment with 1, 2, or 3 AEDs. However, of 1244 subjects randomly assigned to treatment in these 3 clinical studies, only 10 were Asian subjects and only 5 of these Asian subjects were randomly assigned to treatment with retigabine. Therefore, this Phase III study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability, and health outcomes of retigabine, at doses of 900 mg/day and 600 mg/day, compared with placebo in adult Asian subjects with drug-resistant POS.
