There are about 3491 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Singapore. 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 current standard management strategy for drug-sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is to treat with multiple drugs for 6 months, although patients often fail to adhere to the long treatment, leading to poor clinical outcomes including drug resistance, which is expensive and difficult to treat. The TRUNCATE-TB trial evaluates an alternative strategy (the TRUNCATE-TB Management Strategy) comprising treatment for 2 months (8 weeks, extended to 12 weeks if inadequate clinical response) with a regimen predicted to have enhanced sterilising activity ("boosted regimen") and monitoring closely after treatment cessation. Those who relapse (predicted to be always drug sensitive and likely to occur early) will be retreated with a standard 6 month regimen. The trial is a randomized, open-label, multi-arm, multi-stage (MAMS) trial to test the hypothesis that the TRUNCATE-TB Management Strategy is non-inferior to the standard management strategy in terms of longer-term outcomes (clinical status at 96 weeks). If non-inferiority is demonstrated then the advantages/disadvantages of implementing the strategy will be explored in secondary outcomes (from patient and programme perspective). The trial will evaluate the TRUNCATE-TB Management Strategy with 4 potential boosted regimens (180 per arm, total 900 with the standard TB management strategy arm). The boosted regimens include new drugs (licensed drugs, repurposed from other indications) and optimized doses of standard drugs, selected based on consideration of maximal sterilising effect, absence of drug-drug interactions, as well as safety and tolerability over a period of 2 months
This is a phase 3, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CSL112 on reducing the risk of major adverse CV events [MACE - cardiovascular (CV) death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke] in subjects with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) diagnosed with either ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), including those managed with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or medically managed.
Data on demographics, etiology, clinical features, diagnosis, secondary complications, treatment and outcomes of intraocular inflammation in children aged 16 years and below that presented to uveitis clinic in Singapore National Eye Centre (SNEC) from January 1989 to January 2017, will be retrieved and analyzed from the uveitis database retrospectively. The results will be compared with other published studies on different study populations.
To determine if mechanical labour induction can offer a safer and effective alternative to prostaglandins to women with previous caesarean section attempting trial of labour after caesarean (TOLAC).
This is an open-label, randomized, Phase 3 study in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic GIST (advanced GIST) of avapritinib (also known as BLU-285) versus regorafenib in patients previously treated with imatinib and 1 or 2 other TKIs.
The aim of the study is to investigate whether the addition of an adductor canal block to a femoral triangle block will provide better analgesia for patients after total knee replacements.
The study aims to develop a Web-based clinical pedagogy program (WCP) for nurse preceptors; compare the WCP with the current preceptorship course on clinical teaching competence, assessment techniques and self-efficacy; examine nurse preceptors' attitudes toward Web-based learning; and explore the preceptors' perspectives of WCP.
ASLAN003-003 is a multi-center, Phase IIA study to evalute the efficacy of ASLAN003 in AML patients who are ineligible for standard treatment with an expansion cohort in relapsed/refractory patients, and to determine the appropriate dose of ASLAN003 in combination with azacitidine in older (more than or equal to 60 years) AML patients who have exhausted any approved and available treatment options.
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of Runimotamab administered intravenously as a single agent and in combination with Trastuzumab in participants with locally advanced or metastatic Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-expressing cancers.
MICS CABG (Minimally invasive coronary surgery), where coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is completed through a small incision over the left chest, has evolved to become a safe and less invasive alternative to conventional sternotomy CABG. Several observational studies have suggested significantly shorter time to return to physical activity for MICS CABG patients compared to sternotomy CABG patients. A randomized study is warranted to validate these findings, provide higher level of evidence, and potentially lead to changes in practice. The MIST Trial is a multi-centre, prospective, open label, randomized control trial comparing quality of life and recovery in the early post-operative period, between patients undergoing MICS CABG versus patients undergoing sternotomy CABG. Patients referred for isolated CABG for multi-vessel coronary artery disease and deemed technically suitable for sternotomy CABG as well as for MICS CABG are considered for enrollment into the trial. Quality of life questionnaires (The SF-36, Seattle Angina Questionnaire and EQ-5D-5L) will be used to assess the quality of life and recovery in patients undergoing sternotomy CABG or MICS CABG at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months follow up.
