There are about 3753 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Hong Kong. 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 evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral Xeloda (capecitabine) plus intravenous Avastin (bevacizumab) in patients with advanced or metastatic liver cancer. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months.
This open-label, multicenter study will assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of intravenous (IV) dosing of atezolizumab in combination with oral erlotinib or alectinib in participants with NSCLC. This study has two stages. In the erlotinib group, the combination treatment will be given to participants with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-treatment-naive, advanced (nonresectable) NSCLC in a safety-evaluation stage and to participants with previously untreated EGFR mutation-positive, advanced NSCLC in an expansion stage (Stage 2). In the alectinib group, for both the safety-evaluation and expansion stages (Stages 1 and 2), the combination will be given to participants who are treatment-naive with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive advanced NSCLC. In Stage 1, erlotinib will be given at a starting dose of 150 milligrams (mg) by mouth (PO) once daily (QD) and the starting dose of alectinib will be 600 mg twice daily (BID), for 28 consecutive days during Cycle 1 and on Days 1 through 21 of each cycle thereafter. The starting dose of atezolizumab will be 1200 mg, administered every 3 weeks (q3W) starting on Day 8 of Cycle 1. If the starting regimen for a combination treatment is not tolerated, alternative doses and/or schedules of erlotinib and atezolizumab or alectinib and atezolizumab may be tested to determine potential recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for that combination treatment. In Stage 2, a potential RP2D and schedule for each combination treatment will be investigated in an expansion cohort. For both stages, continuation of treatment beyond Cycle 1 will be at the discretion of the treating investigator. Study treatment will be discontinued in participants who experience disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, are not compliant with the study protocol, or, in their opinion or in the opinion of the investigator, are not benefiting from study treatment. However, in the absence of unacceptable toxicity, participants with second-line or greater NSCLC who are still receiving atezolizumab at the time of radiographic disease progression may be permitted to continue study treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether eculizumab long-term use is safe and effective in patients with relapsing NMO.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequential administration of Tarceva and gemcitabine/platinum chemotherapy in patients with stage IIIb/IV non-small cell lung cancer. Patients will be randomized to receive Tarceva (150 mg po) or placebo on days 15-28 of a 4 week cycle of intravenous platinum-based chemotherapy, for a total of 6 cycles. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
This open-label, randomized, 3-arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of obinutuzumab (RO5072759) in combination with chlorambucil as compared to rituximab plus chlorambucil or chlorambucil alone in patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Patients will be randomized 2:2:1 to receive a maximum of six 28-day cycles of either RO5072759 (1000mg iv infusion, on days 1, 8 and 15 of cycle 1 and day 1 of cycles 2-6) plus chlorambucil (0.5 mg/kg orally, days 1 and 15 of cycles 1-6), or rituximab (iv infusion day 1, 375 mg/m^2 cycle 1, 500 mg/m^2 cycles 2-6) plus chlorambucil, or chlorambucil alone. Anticipated time on study treatment is >6 months and follow-up for disease-progression and safety will be at least 5 years. In the US, this trial is sponsored/managed by Genentech.
This study aims to compare the outcome between genotype guided versus clinical guided approach in selection of oral P2Y12 receptor blocker in Chinese patients suffering from acute coronary syndrome.
The primary objective of the study is to compare the effect of 90-day treatment with ticagrelor (180 mg [two 90 mg tablets] loading dose on Day 1 followed by 90 mg twice daily maintenance dose for the remainder of the study) vs acetylsalicylic acid (ASA)-aspirin (300 mg [three 100 mg tablets] loading dose on Day 1 followed by 100 mg once daily maintenance dose for the remainder of the study) for the prevention of major vascular events (composite of stroke, myocardial infarction [MI], and death) in patients with acute ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA).
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of ticagrelor versus placebo in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Recent research has suggested that endoscopist fatigue may significantly affect the polyp detection rate. There have been no studies on interventions that may reduce endoscopist fatigue and therefore improve colonoscopy performance. We want to determine whether a break in the middle of colonoscopy session would maintain a more stable adenoma detection rate
To conduct a prospective randomized controlled study to identify predictors for colonoscopy non-attendance and examine the efficacy of SMS reminder to improve the non-attendance rate.
