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.
Hydroxyzine is one of antihistamines that antagonizes H1 receptor, and it's effects are reducing pruritus, nausea/vomiting, and the mild effect of sedation.With these effects Hydroxyzine should be used in the prevention of these symptoms.
Currently, there are several alternative treatments for patients with chronic rhinitis (CR) who failed medication. Although, most of the researches have been focusing on temperature-controlled RF (TCRF), the cost is a major limitation for applying it worldwide. The investigators objective of this study is to compare the subjective and objective outcomes of Bipolar RF (BRF) with the more popular TCRF for CR treatment. The investigators hypothesized that both have equivalent outcomes but with less operative time and potentially at lower cost.
This is a randomised, open label trial, comparing standard dose of dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine (DP) with standard fixed artesunate-mefloquine regimen (MAS3) and with a longer regimen of artemether-lumefantrine (ALN+) in the treatment of uncomplicated malaria in pregnant women. The sample size is 335 women in each arm which would be 1005 women in total. Pregnant patients in 2nd and 3rd trimester with acute uncomplicated malaria who meet eligibility criteria will be asked to participate in the study. The primary objective is to determine if the efficacy of DP and MAS3 are superior to ALN+ in the treatment of uncomplicated malaria in pregnancy. The study will also incorporate a dense pharmacokinetic study of mefloquine and artesunate (15 women in the MAS3 arm) and a population pharmacokinetic study for mefloquine, piperaquine and lumefantrine.
There are evidence that there is an association between insulin resistance and prolonged hyperinsulinemia or hyperglycemia in Type 2 diabetic patients. This will trigger oxidative stress system via reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lead to a high level of Nitric oxide. This can contribute to a significant change in blood vessel and could end up with the complications from cardiovascular disease and increased mortality rate of type 2 diabetic patients. The purpose of the present study was to examine the effectiveness of the curcumin in type 2 diabetic patients on the reduction of atherosclerosis events by examining pulse-wave velocity (PWV) and plasma high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) test and on blood sugar lowering, glycosylated hemoglobin (HBA1c), lipid profile, and insulin resistance.
The incidence rate of type 2 diabetes in Thai populations is high and increasing every year. Cardiovascular disease is the main complication of this disease, which has been defined as an important cause of death among Diabetic patients. This disease is now becoming a major health problem and causes a great economic loss to the country. Evidence shows that Curcumin, Thai herbal medicine, has the effectiveness of prevention and delay of type 2 diabetes. However, there is no scientific study that aims to prove the efficacy of this herb particularly for prevention and delay the disease in Patients with impaired glucose tolerance (pre-diabetes) and insulin resistance.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and efficacy of GSK Biologicals' H1N1 flu candidate vaccines GSK2340274A and GSK2340273A in children 6 months to less than 10 years of age.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and treatment response of paliperidone palmitate administered as once-monthly injections to patients with schizophrenia.
This randomized, open-label, parallel arm study will compare the safety, tolerability and effect on glycemic control of taspoglutide versus insulin glargine in insulin-naïve patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled on merformin and sulfonylurea combination therapy. Patients will be randomized to receive either taspoglutide 10mg subcutaneously (sc) weekly, or taspoglutide 10mg sc weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg sc weekly, or insulin glargine at an initial dose of 10 international units sc daily. Metformin treatment will be continued in all patients throughout the study, whereas sulfonylurea will be discontinued before starting study treatment. Anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks, with an option to continue the assigned treatment for another 28 weeks. Target sample size is 500-600 patients.
This study is planned to characterize the pharmacokinetic properties of oseltamivir and the active product--oseltamivir carboxylate--in obesity in order to provide clinical guidance for the optimum oseltamivir treatment regimens for severe influenza. It is also a prompt response to a new era influenza plan along with recognition of growing numbers of obese persons. The study findings will be available for a future management plan in dealing with this virus that is transmitted easily from person to person and has shown substantial antigenic changes over time. The primary focus of statistical analysis is to verify the effect of obesity on oseltamivir/oseltamivir carboxylate pharmacokinetics as measured by oseltamivir carboxylate Cmax, AUC (0-12), AUC (0-24), C12, λz, and t1/2 and oseltamivir Cmax, AUC (0-12), and C12.
To study the cost utility analysis of Erythropoietin (EPO) for maintaining the different hemoglobin (Hb) target levels in anemic hemodialysis patient in routine clinical practice.
