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 purpose of this trial is to evaluate efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) versus placebo plus SOC chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-FU as first-line treatment in participants with locally advanced or metastatic esophageal carcinoma. The overall primary efficacy hypotheses are as follows: 1. In participants with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), participants whose tumors are programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive (defined as combined positive score [CPS] ≥10), ESCC participants whose tumors are PD-L1 positive (CPS ≥10), and in all participants, overall survival (OS) is superior with pembrolizumab plus SOC chemotherapy compared with placebo plus SOC chemotherapy. 2. In participants with ESCC, participants whose tumors are PD-L1 positive (CPS ≥10), and in all participants, progression-free survival (PFS) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 as assessed by investigator is superior with pembrolizumab plus SOC chemotherapy compared with placebo plus SOC chemotherapy.
The purpose of this international, multicenter service review is to describe and compare ventilation management in patients at risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) versus patients not at risk and patients with established ARDS, and to ascertain whether certain ventilator settings and ventilation parameters are associated with pulmonary complications or development of ARDS after start of ventilation in patients in intensive care units (ICUs) in Asian countries. Participating centers will include adult patients undergoing mechanical ventilation in the ICU during a 28-day period. Patients' data will be collected during the first 7 days in the ICU, or until ICU discharge. Follow up is until ICU discharge. The primary outcome includes two main ventilator settings, i.e., tidal volume and the level of positive end-expiratory pressure. Secondary endpoints are development of ARDS in patients without ARDS at the onset of mechanical ventilation, worsening of ARDS in patients with ARDS at the onset of mechanical ventilation, pulmonary infection, other pulmonary complications, need for tracheostomy, duration of ventilation, length of ICU stay and ICU mortality.
HPV-301 is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled Phase 3 study to determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of VGX-3100 administered by intramuscular (IM) injection followed by electroporation (EP) delivered with CELLECTRA™ 5PSP in adult women with histologically confirmed cervical high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 [CIN2] or grade 3 [CIN3]) associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 and/or HPV-18.
This study is a long-term study of ataluren in participants with nonsense mutation Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
To study efficacy (total numbers of acne reduction) and safety of 2% Ketoconazole cream in Thai females with Mild degree Post-Adolescence acne comparing with placebo for a period of 12 weeks.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (type 2 DM) is an important disease with increasing prevalence worldwide. More than 60% of diabetes patients die of CVD. Diabetes is associated with 2-to 4- fold increase in the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). Diabetes patients with stable ischemic heart disease may have more prevalent of asymptomatic ischemia or silent ischemia due to autonomic neuropathy. Therefore, detection of total myocardial ischemia including both symptomatic and silent ischemia using ambulatory electrocardiogram monitoring may provide better accuracy in ischemic burden and prognosis in diabetes patients. DDP-4 inhibitors have favorable effects on atherosclerotic risk factors beyond glycemic control. Furthermore, DPP-4 inhibitors may have favorable effects on ischemic preconditioning in patients with CAD. For this study we aim to compare the effects of between vildagliptin and Dapagliflozin on ischemic burden defined by total ischemic time, markers of autonomic function, biomarkers of myocardial injury and biomarkers of inflammation.
This international, multi-center, open-label, single-arm study evaluated the safety and tolerability profile of everolimus in post-menopausal women with HR positive, HER2 negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer after documented recurrence or progression following a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors (NSAI) therapy in Novartis Oncology emergent growth market (EGM) countries.Data was presented by Asian countries vs Non-Asian countries to confirm no difference in safety and efficacy. Summary statistics were presented.
The global burden of maternal morbidity and mortality attributable to anemia is staggering, and this is especially true in low-resource settings. A recent review suggests 42% of pregnant women have anemia worldwide (1993-2005) with the vast majority of anemic women (90%) residing in Africa or Asia1; and in Asia, anemia was the second highest cause of maternal mortality2. Anemia was diagnosed in almost one third to one half of women presenting to the Shoklo Malaria Research Unit (SMRU) clinics on the Thai-Myanmar border for antenatal care (ANC) in a 2008 survey3, and anemia at first antenatal visit was associated with a two-fold increase in maternal mortality in this population4. Studies have also shown an association between anemia and small for gestational age infants, preterm delivery, infant and childhood anemia and developmental delays5. The anemia in pregnant women presenting to SMRU clinics is multifactorial, as hemoglobinopathies, Glucose-6-dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, iron, folic acid and B12 deficiency, helminth infection, and malaria are all prevalent in this rural population. Though all of these pathologies can cause anemia, they require different and sometimes conflicting treatment and prevention strategies, interacting in a complex web of causes and effects. Iron supplementation is the mainstay of most anemia control programs, but some women with hemoglobinopathies suffer from potentially fatal iron overload6. Iron supplementation has also been associated with increased risk of malaria7. Some helminth infections are associated with increased rates of anemia and malaria, but others may be protective8. Malaria and G6PD deficiency have complex effects on one another, and some malaria treatments can cause acute and life-threatening hemolysis in G6PD deficient individuals9. Given the high prevalence and diverse causes of anemia in this population, and its potentially dire effects on maternal and infant health and survival, SMRU implemented increased clinical testing for pregnant women in 2012 to inform clinical care at the individual level. Further analysis of these data is urgently needed to improve care on a population scale. We propose to review existing data from ANC records to determine the causes and effects of anemia in this population, and use this information to improve treatment and prevention guidelines. Results would be integrated rapidly into local practice with the potential to have profound impacts on maternal and child health in this region.
The aim of the study is to prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of micafungin when prescribed for prophylaxis or treatment of fungal infections in different real-world clinical conditions and centers, in pediatric patients in Asia/Oceania.
A quasi-experimental study was conducted among patients receiving care at the medicine units of the Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai Hospital to determine the appropriateness of intravenous antibiotics at hospital discharge with and without ID consultation.
