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.
In this clinical investigation, the safety, feasibility and performance of the novel EnSite™ HD Grid Catheter mapping system for advanced high-density three-dimensional mapping will be studied in patients undergoing catheter ablation procedures for the treatment of non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) or left atrial tachycardia (AT).
VICTOR is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, 2-part study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and antiviral effect of single and multiple dosing of AK0529 in infants hospitalized with RSV infection.
This study is a phase 2 multinational, multicenter, single-arm, open-label, non-randomized study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SP-02L monotherapy in relapsed or refractory patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma.
The objective of this study is to collect data to confirm the safety and effectiveness of the Image Ready™ MR (Magnetic Resonance) Conditional Defibrillation System when used in the 1.5T (Tesla) MRI environment under the labeled Conditions of Use (Phase I). Additionally, the study will assess medically necessary MR scans according to the labeled Conditions of Use to provide real-world scanning data (Phase I and Phase II).The study also aims to demonstrate the continued ability of the ImageReady MR Conditional Defibrillation System to sense and detect ventricular fibrillation (VF) post MRI scan by collecting and analyzing data from spontaneous VF episodes, "for-cause" VF inductions, and from an optional VF induction Sub-study. .
This is the first study to test Sym015 in humans. The primary purpose of this study is to see if Sym015 is safe and effective for patients with advanced solid tumor malignancies without available therapeutic options.
This is a phase IB study to assess the safety and tolerability of ASLAN001 when given in combination with either Cisplatin and 5-Fluorouracil or Cisplatin and Capecitabine, with a view to identifying the recommended Phase II dose.
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and the United States of America (USA). The aim of the trial is to investigate efficacy and safety of semaglutide versus dulaglutide as add-on to metformin in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
In this study, the investigators would use the training workshops as a capacity build method to deliver the holistic health knowledge for the trainers and ambassadors implementing and assisting the community-based programs for the public. The investigators hypothesize that the training workshops and mobile health messages would promote the health awareness and the health of the participants. The investigators would expect the participants influence the health behavior and attitude of their family members.
Lack of physical activity was found to be a local and worldwide issue. Most Hong Kong people are having sedentary lifestyle. Researchers show that the increase of physical activity reduces the risk of chronic diseases, and improve cardio-pulmonary functions; whereas sedentary behaviors increase the risks. For many people, the targets of the WHO physical activity guidelines are too high to be achieved. Some people are not even willing to try, despite the evidence for the protective benefits to their long term health. In response, a recent focus has been placed upon reduction of sedentary behavior. Sedentary behavior is defined as 'those activities that do not increase energy expenditure substantially above the resting level, such as sitting, lying down, or viewing TV, or simply as "too much sitting". The primary determinants of sedentary behavior are behavioral and context-based, such as TV and screen-focused behaviors in home and work environments, sitting at work, and sitting during transport. The public health leaders have called for reducing the time spent in sedentary behaviors as a possible public health priority. This study will focus on reduction of sedentary behavior and increasing physical activity in daily life. We hypothesize that the training programs would promote the health awareness of the participants.
An 8-week, assessor-blind, randomized controlled trial will be conducted. A total of 138 patients with post-stroke depression (PSD) will be randomly assigned to the combination acupuncture treatment (CAI) (n = 69) or least acupuncture stimulation (LAS) (n = 69) for 3 sessions per week for 8 weeks. Treatment outcomes will be measured using the 17-item Hamilton Self-Rating Depression Scale (HAMD-17), the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) for depression symptoms; Barthel Index (BI) for physical function, the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) for cognitive performance. The assessment will be performed at baseline and once monthly thereafter. The study will be conducted in School of Chinese Medicine Clinics, Tung Wah Hospital, Kowloon Hospital.
