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.
This study is designed to determine if the investigational drug is effective and safe in individuals with asthma
The present study intends to investigate the use as a booster of a dose of sanofi pasteur's Pneumo 23 vaccine in the second year of life following 3-dose priming with Wyeth's Prevnar vaccine. The researchers will use a cohort of subjects who have received 3 doses of Prevnar® at 2, 4, 6 months of age in the context of the clinical study A3L12 on Hexavalent combined vaccine (DTaP-IPV-HB-PRP~T)
Background: Pulmonary involvement in leptospirosis has been reported to be on the increase and is emerging as the main cause of death due to leptospirosis in many countries, including Thailand. Methods: A prospective randomized controlled trial of desmopressin or high dose dexamethasone as adjunctive therapy in patients with suspected pulmonary hemorrhage associated with leptospirosis was conducted between July 2003 and October 2006 at 5 hospitals in Thailand.
The purpose of this study is to show that doripenem is as effective as imipenem-cilastatin in the treatment of patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia.
The objective is to evaluate whether once weekly subcutaneous (SC) injection of idrabiotaparinux is at least as efficient to prevent clots in brain and in the other organs than oral international normalized ratio (INR) adjusted-dose warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).
Melioidosis, an infection caused by the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei, is a major cause of community-acquired septicaemia in northeast Thailand. Common manifestations include cavitating pneumonia, hepatic and splenic abscesses, and soft tissue and joint infections. Despite improvements in diagnostic procedures and treatment, the mortality of severe melioidosis remains unacceptably high - approximately 35% with currently used antibiotics (ceftazidime or co-amoxiclav). There is clear evidence that antibiotics can affect mortality; the use of ceftazidime rather than previous regimens (doxycycline + chloramphenicol + co-trimoxazole) led to a 50% reduction in mortality from 80% to 35%. However, the mortality in the first 48 hours has not been altered by any treatment regimen. A key question is whether alternative antibiotics could improve early outcome. The hypothesis tested is that meropenem is superior to ceftazidime in terms of mortality for the treatment of melioidosis.
To assess, under daily practice conditions, the safety profile and the efficacy of a new formulation of alfuzosin administered once daily (Xatral XL) in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) suggestive of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Two-arm, randomized, open-label trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bosutinib alone compared to imatinib alone in subjects newly diagnosed with chronic phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML). The primary endpoint is cytogenetic response rate at one year.
This study will evaluate if extended therapy with oral rivaroxaban can prevent blood clots in the leg and lung that can occur with patients hospitalized for acute medical illness, and compare these results with those of the standard enoxaparin dose and duration regimen. The safety of rivaroxaban will also be studied.
This trial is conducted in Asia. The aim of this trial is to investigate the efficacy of blood glucose control with combination therapy of repaglinide and metformin compared to conventional treatment with a sulphonylurea or metformin in monotherapy in type 2 diabetes
