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.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the major global health challenges. CRC is currently the third most common cancer in men and the second common in women worldwide, accounting for approximately 10% of all cancers. Randomized controlled studies have shown that CRC screening using Faecal Occult Blood Testing (FOBT) is effective in reducing cancer mortality by 15-33%. Since yearly testing is recommended to maintain programmatic effectiveness, longitudinal adherence is a critical component of FOBT-based screening programs. The investigators previous study conducted in Hong Kong showed that the rate of compliance with CRC screening was declining since the first year of enrolment. Nevertheless, it remains unknown whether interventions based on reminder systems could effectively enhance longitudinal compliance with FOBT, especially among those who have already enrolled in a CRC screening programme. Current evidence does not adequately compare whether interactive or one-way reminder messages are superior to usual care (i.e. no reminders).
The purpose of this study of MCS110 with PDR001 was to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and antitumor activity of the combination of MCS110 with PDR001 in adult patients with solid tumors.
A Phase III, randomised study of atezolizumab alone and in combination with chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in participants with untreated advanced urothelial cancer.
Single-visit, unmasked, non-dispensing study where subjects will wear three different lenses bilaterally in one visit, each lens being worn for approximately 30-60 minutes. Subjects will complete a questionnaire for each study lens.
The purpose of this study of capmatinib (INC280) and spartalizumab (PDR001) was to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and antitumor activity of spartalizumab administered intravenously (i.v.) as a single agent or in combination with capmatinib administered orally in adult patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
It is a double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled trial for advanced cancer patients with constipation. 60 patients will be randomly assigned to have individualized herbal intervention (treatment group) or placebo (control group) in 1:1 ratio. For the treatment group, MaZiRenWan 10g plus HuangQi 20g are chosen as the core prescription. Furthermore, six herbal granules can be added according to the syndrome differentiated for individual participant. Placebo is made from dextrin (76.03%), tea essence (23.61%), gardenin (0.02%), and caramel (0.34%) to achieve color, smell, taste, and texture comparable to the herbal granules. Patients are instructed to dissolve the granules in 150ml of hot water, twice daily for two weeks. The primary end point is the global symptom improvement. Secondary outcome measures include stool frequency, stool form, use of rescue herbal granules, constipation visual analogue scale (CVAS) (0=none to 7=most severe) and individual assessment of constipation related symptoms. For the safety profiles of herbal intervention, the important adverse events reported and clinical laboratory evaluations of liver and renal function are determined.
