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 will assess the pharmacokinetics of TDF in Thai HIV-infected children
Infections with multiply antibiotic-resistant bacteria represent a major cause of preventable morbidity and mortality amongst hospitalized neonates worldwide. In Southeast Asia, where antibiotic-resistance is a major problem, Gram-negative bacteria account for the majority of such infections. The most common pathogens are Acinetobacter spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter spp., Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia. The great majority of infections with these pathogens represent asymptomatic carriage, though in the absence of routine screening for asymptomatic carriage reliable estimates of the prevalence, rates of transmission between patients, and rates of importation from the community are lacking. Moreover, current understanding of the degree and manner in which different antibiotics act to select for such resistant organisms is rudimentary.
Loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) is the primary diagnostic and therapeutic procedure employed in women with high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia of the cervix. The procedure usually performed in the outpatient setting under local anesthesia. However, it could be associated with significant pain and anxiety. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of listening to music during the procedure in reducing pain and anxiety.
This is an observational study of the natural immune response to scrub typhus in patients recruited from Chiangrai Prachanukroh Hospital, N-Thailand. Febrile patients with a positive IgM rapid diagnostic test will be asked if they wish to take part in a study to improve the understanding of how the body responds to scrub typhus. Blood samples will be collected from each participant ("STP", n=60) at baseline (the day of presentation to hospital), 2 weeks later in hospital, 12 weeks after baseline at the clinic visit and 1 year later. Data on clinical presentation and relapses will be recorded. Control subjects are scrub typhus exposed patients from a rural village in the caption area of Prachanukroh Hospital ("STE", n=80; approx. 40 children and 40 adults), and healthy adults blood donors from Bangkok ("STH" n=30) - these subjects will be enrolled for one single blood sample. The study team will also collect eschar swab specimens from STP group and a non-invasive specimen of the dark crust on the day of enrollment. Funder: Li Ka Shing Foundation [Grant C13004]
The enumeration of T lymphocytes positive for the CD4 antigen is used to determine the immune status of patients with, or suspected of developing, immune deficiencies such as AIDS. The BD FACS Presto™ is an investigational automated system for in vitro diagnostic use in performing the direct enumeration of CD4 absolute count, CD4 percentage of lymphocytes, and hemoglobin (Hb) concentration in human whole blood. This is a prospective study to determine the relative bias between the investigational BD FACS Presto system and the predicate BD FACS Calibur with BD Tritest system in their determination of absolute CD4, % CD4, and Hb concentrations.
Breast cancer patient receiving AC regimen chemotherapy (Doxorubicin + Cyclophosphamide) who has nausea score from 40/100 VAS or vomiting after the first or second cycle of chemotherapy is recruited. The patient who meets the eligibility criteria and provides informed consent is randomised to receive either Ginger capsule (500 mg) or placebo taking twice a day by mouth during the first 5 days of chemotherapy cycle. The study drug will be switched on the subsequent cycle (i.e. the patient who received Ginger capsule will receive placebo and vice versa). The primary outcome is the nausea score and vomiting during the first 5 days of each chemotherapy cycle when receiving the study drug.
HIV counseling and testing, risk reduction counseling, provision of condoms and lubricants Same-day result HIV testing along with pre-test and post-test counseling, including risk reduction counseling, will be provided according to the standard practice at each study site at enrollment and every 6 months in HIV-negative participants. HIV-negative participants can also access non-occupational post-exposure prophylaxis service and symptomatic STD service if these are available at study sites. HIV-positive participants will also receive risk reduction counseling every 3 months. Condoms and lubricants will be provided free of charge.
A two-arm, Phase 2/3 multicentre, open-label, randomised study evaluating safety and antiviral effect of current standard antiretroviral therapy compared to once daily integrase inhibitor administered with darunavir/ritonavir (DRV/r) in HIV-1 infected, virologically suppressed paediatric participants.
Osteoporosis is a common disease defined as a decrease in bone mass and strength which increases risk of fragility fractures. This disorder may affecting health in many adults which causing disability, morbidity, and mortality. Current first-line medical therapy is bisphosphonates which alendronate is one of the most widely used. However, expenditure on medicines is one of the major problem of inadequate access to treatment. The investigators hypothesized that generic alendronate will have the same clinical efficacy as the brand formulation. Therefore, the result of this study is extremely crucial. If adequate efficacy of generic alendronate could be established and if it affords the same safety profile as those of brand alendronate, the use of generic alendronate could then be recommended.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether social networking on mobile phone in antenatal care health education is effective in the improvement of maternal and neonatal outcomes compared with usual antenatal care.
