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 study is to determine if PI-88 is effective and safe in patients who have had surgery to remove primary liver cancer.
Persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infections is the single necessary cause of cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is still the major health problem in the developing countries. It has been the first rank women's cancer in Thailand for many decades. Approximately 10-20% of Thai women have the high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) infections in their cervices. This will frequently lead to low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSILs) (10%), high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs) (0.8%), and finally, cervical cancers (0.16%) within 10-20 years. The treatment options for LSILs are either observation or ablative surgery. However, in our institute, cryotherapy, which is the one of ablative surgery, is more frequently used to comfort our women. It is not only effective but safe with only minimal side effects; watery leukorrhea for 2-4 weeks, and local cervical infection not more than 1%. Contraindication to this procedure are active cervical infection, lesion of 2 mm-larger than probe, lesion inside cervical os and suspected cervical cancer. Additionally, in developing countries such as Thailand, this treatment is safe, acceptable, feasible and effective. Patients with LSILs could also have this treatment in some rural area from the 10-days trained nurses. Fortunately, recent reports showed that cryotherapy has abilities not only in clearing LSILs but also clearing the HPV infections, its necessary cause. However, there are no randomized controlled trial compared its clearing ability between observation and cryotherapy. Therefore, a randomized controlled trial is needed to demonstrate that. Findings from this trial will contribute enormously to older women who already get infected by HPV. Aside from preventing cervical cancer in treated woman, cryotherapy could also give her relief from worrying about having a time-bomb like HPV infection in her cervix.
The purpose of this study conducted in Asia-Pacific was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Sorafenib in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin versus placebo in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin for chemonaive patients with unresectable stage IIIB (with effusion) or stage IV NSCLC. However, as indicated below, the study was terminated prematurely when the results from Study 11961 (NCT00300885), an earlier Phase 3 study of similar design in subjects with advanced NSCLC, showed an overall lack of efficacy and increased mortality in subjects with squamous subtype. The data available is presented as descriptive analyses, due to the limitations of implementing the statistical analysis plan.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether, in patients with type 2 diabetes and pre-existing disease of the heart and the circulatory system and/or the kidney, aliskiren at a target dose of 300 mg once daily (compared to placebo), on top of conventional treatment, reduces death and disease caused by the heart, the circulatory system and the kidney. AMENDMENT 4 RATIONALE (MARCH 2012) : Protocol amendment 4 served to address the data monitoring committee recommendation dated 14 Dec 2011 to discontinue study treatment in all participating patients. It also addressed the subsequent Health Authorities request to implement a 12 month safety follow-up period (actual duration was 9 months in average) post study drug discontinuation.
The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Tipranavir/ritonavir (TPV/r, 500mg/200mg twice daily) to the safety and efficacy of Darunavir/ritonavir (DRV/r 600 mg /100 mg twice daily) in combination with investigator selected optimised background regimens in patients who are three-class (Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI), Nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI), and Protease inhibitor (PI)) treatment-experienced (a minimum of 3-months duration for each class) with resistance to more than one PI on the screening virtual phenotype resistance testing.
The objectives of this study are to compare in nucleoside treatment-naïve subjects, the efficacy and safety of clevudine 30 mg once daily versus adefovir 10 mg once daily, each as monotherapy, for 48 weeks, 72 weeks, and 96 weeks.

This 2-arm study was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab (Avastin) in combination with rituximab (MabThera) and CHOP (cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin [doxorubicin], Oncovin [vincristine], prednisone) chemotherapy (R-CHOP) versus rituximab plus CHOP chemotherapy (R-CHOP) in previously untreated patients with CD20-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Patients were randomized to receive 8 cycles of treatment with R-CHOP plus bevacizumab or R-CHOP plus placebo. Treatment with bevacizumab/placebo and R-CHOP was given either on a 2-week or 3-week schedule and bevacizumab was given at a weekly average dose of 5 mg/kg (10 mg/kg for 2-week cycles and 15 mg/kg for 3-week cycles).
The purpose of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the benefit of the immunotherapeutic product GSK1572932A when given to patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, after removal of their tumor. A course of 13 injections will be administered over 27 months. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
This trial is conducted in Europe, Asia and South America. A one-year clinical trial to compare the safety of inhaled human insulin to subcutaneous insulin aspart in subjects with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
