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.
To study the success of Oligodendrocyte progenitor cell culture project in Rajavithi Hospital to identify an unlimited clone human neuronal progenitor stem cells from the human brain in the Biomolecular Research Center. This study aims to produce the reproductive clone of neuronal development protocols and advance projects. Neuronal cells such as pyramidal cells, oligodendrocyte, and dopaminergic neuron differentiation protocol/projects for treatment of Alzheimer's disease, Multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease respectively in next phase of clinical trials.
This study is a long-term post-treatment follow-up to study WV19432, which evaluated the efficacy and safety of PEGASYS in patients with HBeAg positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB).Patients who received treatment with PEGASYS, and completed follow-up, are eligible to enter this post-treatment follow-up study. The anticipated time on study was 5 years, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
Due in part to widespread availability of oseltamivir and clinical experience using oseltamivir to treat H5N1 influenza virus infections, many strains of influenza have become resistant to it. Other reliable methods of treating H5N1 must be identified in case of a pandemic. One such option is intravenous zanamivir used in combination with oseltamivir. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the interaction between oral oseltamivir and intravenous zanamivir administered as either a continuous or intermittent infusion in healthy adults.
Nebulized Colistin for Adjunctive Therapy of Hospital-Acquired Pneumonia caused by Gram Negative Bacteria should be more effective than conventional therapy
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of foretinib (also known as GSK1363089) when used in the treatment of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer).
Women who naturally deliver a singleton will be invited to participate the study. Weekly transabdominal and/or transvaginal ultrasound examinations will be offered until the uterus is completely involuted. The pattern of involution will be analyzed.
This study aims to investigate the anti-nociceptive biogenic amine (serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT], norepinephrine [NE], dopamine [DA], and their metabolites) status, and serum levels of cytokines, BDNF and BH4 in Thai fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) patients compared with a representative Thai population. The efficacy and the tolerability of mirtazapine as monotherapy for FMS will also be assessed. In addition, proof of concept of the indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) activity in FMS will be conducted. The study will be divided into three parts. In part I, FMS patients of Thai ethnicity will be examined to determine the blood and/or urinary level of anti-nociceptive biogenic amines, cytokines, BDNF and BH4 by comparison with the demographically matched, but unrelated, healthy normal controls (HNC). In part II, the FMS subjects from part I study will be randomized to blinded therapy with mirtazapine or identical appearing placebo. There will be three treatment groups (N=1:1:1) to accommodate two dosages of mirtazapine (15 mg, 30mg) and placebo given before bedtime. Pill counts at baseline and at follow-up visits will document compliance. Standard outcome instruments (translated and validated in Thai language) will be used at baseline and at each of the follow-up visits. The co-primary outcome variable will be the changes in the pain visual analog scale (PVAS) score and pain responders (>= 30% PVAS reduction). Secondary clinical outcome variables of interest will include depression, insomnia, anxiety, physical function, morning stiffness, patient global assessment of disease status, patient global impression of change, fibromyalgia impact questionnaire (FIQ, quality of life and adverse experience. The changes of biogenic amine and IGF-1 concentrations in blood and/or urine with the treatment will be examined as the secondary biochemical measures. In part III, the IDO activity of depressed FMS, non-depressed FMS and HNC will be compared. Moreover, the effect of mirtazapine treatment on the IDO activity in depressed and non-depressed FMS patients will be assessed. Study hypothesis 1. Anti-nociceptive biogenic amine levels in Thai FMS patients are lower than in Thai healthy normal control. 2. Higher IDO activity could be observed in FMS patients. 3. Higher cytokines could be observed in FMS patients. 4. Higher BDNF could be observed in FMS patients. 5. Lower BH4 could be observed in FMS patients. 6. Mirtazapine is effective in FMS treatment.
The purpose of this study is to gather information about the use of an investigational drug called Ramucirumab in adenocarcinomas of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction.
Bundling infection control interventions should decrease incidence of Healthcare-Associated Infections in General Medical Wards at Siriraj Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand
The purpose of this study is to examine the superiority of YM150 to the placebo and to evaluate the dose-dependent response of YM150 in patients undergoing elective total knee replacement surgery.
