There are about 2118 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Malaysia. 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 is an open-labelled randomised controlled trial involving 2 groups which are Free Field voice test vs Free Field Click tests using digital hand-held devices. This study will be done at a sound-proof room in ORL clinic in Hospital Sultanah Aminah, Johor, Malaysia from January till July 2020.
Many cancers are being treated more effectively nowadays due to the raised awareness and early detection as well as advancement in researches and technology. Despite the rising number of cancer survivors in the coming years, these survivors are still plagued by the poor quality of life due to physical and psychological impairment. According to the National Cancer Registry Report from 2007-2011, haematological cancer is one of the ten most common cancers in Malaysian population. Many haematological cancer survivors in Malaysia are reportedly having poor quality of life due to multiple physical and emotional impairments which leads to further disability in life. It is thus an important effort to identify the rehabilitation needs in these cancer survivors to implement alternatives to improve the disease outcome through cancer rehabilitation.
Achievement of critical view of safety (CVS) is recommended to reduce risk of hilar injury in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence cholangiography, a novel technique of real time biliary visualization, is postulated to assist dissection during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). However, its use in providing a faster and safer LC has yet to be established. The main objective of this study is to evaluate whether the use of ICG enhanced fluorescence cholangiography will help in earlier identification critical view of safety during LC.
The purpose of this study was to provide up to 52 weeks of efficacy, safety and tolerability data to support registration of intravenous (i.v.) secukinumab (Initial dose of 6 mg/kg at Baseline (BSL) followed thereafter with 3 mg/kg administered every four weeks) in patients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) despite current or previous Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and/or anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy.
This is a study for adults (18-75 years) who have successfully completed treatment either with Dupilumab or with Upadacitinib in the study M16-046. At the end of M16-046, they have the option to receive Upadacitinib with a duration of 52 weeks beyond the timeframe of Study M16-046. There will be a 30 day follow-up visit after the treatment period is completed. Main objective of this study is to assess long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy of upadacitinib in participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis who successfully completed treatment in the study M16-046.
The Mid-Q Response study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled, interventional, single-blinded, post-market study. The purpose of the Mid-Q Response study is to test the hypothesis that the AdaptivCRT (aCRT) algorithm is superior to standard CRT therapy regarding patient outcomes in CRT indicated patients with moderate QRS duration, preserved atrioventricular (AV) conduction and left bundle branch block (LBBB). The study will be executed at approximately 60 centers in Asia. The subjects will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the aCRT ON (Adaptive Bi-V and LV) group or the aCRT OFF (Nonadaptive CRT) group. The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that aCRT ON increases the proportion of patients that improve on the Clinical Composite Score (CCS) compared to aCRT OFF at 6 months of follow-up.
The new strategy is by using the progestogen to block the luteinizing hormone(LH) surge either endogenous during luteal phase stimulation, or exogenous in the follicular phase i.e progestin primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS). The goal of PPOS is to develop a single dominant follicle. Various types of oral Progestin had been studied before including Medroxyprogesterone Acetate (MPA) and Utrogestan with different dosage. A different study by Wang et al conducted by using MPA to patients with PCOS. The use of MPA is contraindicated in human pregnancy whereas Dydrogesterone had been extensively used worldwide for the treatment of threatened miscarriage as well as luteal support in infertility setting. Previous protocol on PPOS showed inconclusive results. Therefore in this study, Dydrogesterone was used as the Progestin Primed Ovarian hyperstimulation to explore its effect on PCOS women IVF outcome.
Lately, the role of GnRH agonist as luteal phase support has been recommended by various studies though the mechanism is still debatable. It has been postulated that GnRH agonist might support the corpus luteum by stimulating the secretion of luteinizing hormone by pituitary gonadotroph cells, or by acting directly on the endometrium through the locally expressed receptors. Therefore, this study was designed to evaluate effects of the additional of single-dose GnRH agonist to the routine progestogens use for luteal phase support on IVF outcome as compared to progestogens only. The biochemical pregnancy rates, clinical pregnancy rates, live birth rates and miscarriage rate between these regimes were compared. The hypothesis of this study was women with addition of GnRH agonist as luteal phase support have higher biochemical pregnancy rate, clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate compare to patient with progestogens only luteal phase support.
This is an open label, cross-over group, single-centre randomised controlled trial comparing Medium Cut Off Dialyser with High Flux Dialyser in patients with end-stage renal disease on chronic haemodialysis.
The purpose of this global study was to demonstrate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of an intravenous (i.v.) regimen of secukinumab compared to placebo in participants with active ankylosing spondylitis (AS) or non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA ) at Week 16 despite current or previous non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAID), disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARD) and/or anti Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) therapy. In addition, to further support efficacy and safety of an i.v. regimen, data was collected for up to 52 weeks of treatment.
