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.
To determine bioequivalence of a atorvastatin pediatric formulation comparing to the 10 mg commercial atorvastatin calcium tablet formulation.
This is a study of an experimental drug (neratinib) versus a combination of drugs (lapatinib and capecitabine) in women who have erbB-2 (HER-2) positive metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer. The goal of this study is to compare the two regimens in shrinking tumors and extending the lives of women with erbB2 (HER2) positive breast cancer. The study will also compare the safety of the two regimens and to compare quality of life of patients taking the two regimens.
This 2 arm safety study will compare the outcome with respect to a composite endpoint of all-cause mortality and non-fatal cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, stroke) in CKD participants either on dialysis or not receiving renal replacement therapy under treatment with methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta or reference ESAs. Participants will be randomized to receive intravenous (iv) or subcutaneous (sc) methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta at the following doses: for participants not already receiving ESA treatment, methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta will be administered at a starting dose of 0.6 micrograms per kilograms every 2 weeks (mcg/kg/2wks) iv or sc; for participants receiving maintenance ESA treatment, iv or sc methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta will be administered at an initial monthly dose of 120, 200 or 360 micrograms (mcg) depending on the weekly dose of ESA received prior to first methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta administration. Participants randomized to reference ESA treatment will receive iv or sc ESAs in accordance with their prescribed dosing information.
This study will compare PF-00299804 given orally on continuous schedule to the approved drug, erlotinib, in patients whose non-small cell lung cancer has progressed after chemotherapy; patients will be randomized to receive one of these drugs, and followed for efficacy and tolerance of each.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of teriparatide versus therapies that decrease bone loss to prevent new or worsening back pain in patients with osteoporosis seen in clinical practice.
Background: Malignant pleural effusions form a significant proportion of respiratory and oncology work-load. The efficacy of thoracoscopic talc poudrage which is the current standard of care is limited by lung entrapment which prevents lung re-expansion. Thoracoscopy patients also have significant hospital length of stay because chest tube drainage must continue until the pleural space is dry to effect successful pleurodesis. Alternative management strategies such as tunnelled pleural catheters (bedside ultrasound-guided) enable outpatient management of pleural effusions but have limited pleurodesis rates and do not offer any chance of getting pleural biopsies. A prospective randomized controlled trial with two arms i.e. thoracoscopic poudrage alone (standard care) versus combined thoracoscopic poudrage and tunnelled pleural catheters. The tunnelled catheters will be inserted at the time of thoracoscopy in the endoscopy centre under ultrasound guidance. The trial is aimed to be completed within 3 years. Primary end-points will be pleurodesis success. The secondary end-points are hospital length-of-stay, complication rates, analgesia requirements, pain scores and quality-of-life scores. Based on power calculations, we aim to recruit 120 patients in each arm.
The objective of this randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the role colonic self-expanding metal stent (SEMS) placement as a bridge to surgery in patients with acute malignant left-sided colonic obstruction. The study was designed to test the hypothesis that SEMS placement could be effectively and safely used in this group of patients to relieve colonic obstruction thereby allowing safe recovery and medical stabilization before proceeding to elective surgery
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of multiple ascending doses of PF-04802540 administered orally to healthy adult subjects.
The primary purpose of the study is to determine whether carbamylated erythropoietin (CEPO) is a safe treatment for patients who have suffered an acute ischemic stroke.
This study evaluated the efficacy of oral panobinostat in participants with refractory/relapsed classical Hodgkins lymphoma (HL) who have received prior treatment with high dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant. Safety of panobinostat also was assessed. Other markers that may correlate with efficacy or safety were explored.
