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.
There is a need for more effective therapy for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who developed disease progression after first line therapy. Currently, there is no standard second-line therapy for this disease. BKM-120 is a pan-PI3K inhibitor currently tested in clinical trials. In a cellular model of oral-esophageal carcinogenesis, it has shown that EGFR overexpression activated PI3/AKT pathway. Therfore, there is interest to see the efficacy and safety of BKM120 in this setting.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects and tolerability (how well a participant can stand a particular medicine or treatment) of flexible dose Oxybutynin Extended-Release (OXY-ER, Lyrinel) including safety and quality of life assessment in participants with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO - the nerves mediating the detrusor muscle do not work properly leading to frequent feeling of need to urinate during the day, night, or both).
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the treatment effect of sarilumab and methotrexate (MTX) compared to etanercept and methotrexate (MTX) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and an inadequate response to adalimumab and methotrexate by evaluation of the Disease Activity Score for 28 joints (DAS28). Secondary Objectives: To assess the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in patients taking sarilumab in combination with methotrexate (MTX). To assess the quality of life of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) taking sarilumab in combination with methotrexate (MTX). To assess the safety and tolerability of sarilumab in combination with methotrexate (MTX) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
This study is to find out if INC280 is safe and has beneficial effects in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma known to have dysregulation of c-MET pathway.
The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate the predictors of response to erythropoietin (hormone secreted by kidney that helps in formation of red blood cells in bone marrow) treatment in participants with cancer (abnormal tissue that grows and spreads in the body until it kills) related anemia (decreased number of red blood cells), receiving chemotherapy (treatment of cancer using drugs).
The purpose of this dose range finding study is to assess the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of JNJ-38518168 at doses of 3, 10, and 30 mg/d compared with placebo in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) despite concomitant methotrexate (MTX) therapy.
The purpose of this extension study is to evaluate SSP-004184AQ in patients with transfusional iron overload and to provide data on long term safety and efficacy. SSP-004184AQ is an iron chelator under development for chronic daily oral administration to patients with transfusional iron overload
The immediate release (IR) formulation of retigabine has been shown to be superior to placebo as adjunctive therapy in 3 adequate and well-controlled studies in subjects with drug-resistant partial-onset seizures (POS) who had previously failed to respond to two or more antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) and were still having seizures despite current treatment with 1, 2, or 3 AEDs. However, of 1244 subjects randomly assigned to treatment in these 3 clinical studies, only 10 were Asian subjects and only 5 of these Asian subjects were randomly assigned to treatment with retigabine. Therefore, this Phase III study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability, and health outcomes of retigabine, at doses of 900 mg/day and 600 mg/day, compared with placebo in adult Asian subjects with drug-resistant POS.
In camps for displaced persons located along the Thai-Myanmar border, mefloquine and artesunate combination therapy has been used since 1992. In vivo efficacy of a 3 day regimen of mefloquine + artesunate (MAS3) has been monitored regularly since its introduction in 1992. In 2009 Carrara et al summarised the in vivo PCR-adjusted cure rates at Day 42 and Day 63 in patients treated with MAS3 between 1995 and 2005, as well as the in-vitro parasite susceptibility to MAS3 during that same period, and the changes in pfmdr1 copy numbers.The proportion of patients with parasitaemia persisting on day-2 increased significantly from 4.5% before 2001 to 21.9% after 2002 (p<0.001). Delayed parasite clearance was associated with increased risk of developing gametocytaemia (AOR = 2.29; 95% CI, 2.00-2.69, p = 0.002). MAS3 efficacy declined slightly but significantly (Hazards ratio 1.13; 95% CI, 1.07-1.19, p<0.001), although efficacy in 2007 remained well within acceptable limits: 96.5% (95% CI, 91.0-98.7). The proportion of infections caused by parasites with increased pfmdr1 copy number rose from 30% (12/40) in 1996 to 53% (24/45) in 2006 (p = 0.012, test for trend). Evidence of reduced susceptibility to artemisinins in Western Cambodia was first reported in January 2007. Artemisinin resistance was manifest by a marked slowing of parasite clearance. A more recent analysis of parasite clearance data collected prospectively in patients with uncomplicated hyperparasitaemic malaria has shown a progressive decline in parasite clearance rates over the last decade suggesting a decline following the same trajectory as in Western Cambodia but with a time lag of a few years. Surveillance data collected in 2011 have shown a dramatic and worrying decline in efficacy of MAS3, albeit in a small number of patients. This decline in efficacy of mefloquine + artesunate is likely to be attributable to reduced parasite susceptibility to mefloquine. The other fixed dose combinations available dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine (DP) is the best option to replace mefloquine-artesunate since it is thought that it remains effective in the presence of high pfmdr1 copy numbers. In addition DP is administered once daily and needs no special dietary modification to ensure adequate absorption. In this study it is hypothesised that efficacy of DP (estimated to be 95%) will be significantly higher than that of MAS3 (estimated to be 65%), therefore the investigators propose to conduct a randomised controlled trial between DP and MAS3 for the treatment of P.falciparum.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long term safety and tolerability of fostamatinib in patients in Asia with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
