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.
MNA-3521-011 study is a multi-centre, open-label, first-in-human, phase 1a/b clinical study dose/dose frequency escalation followed by a cohort expansion part. MTL-CEBPA is administered as monotherapy or in combination with sorafenib to patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma and cirrhosis of the liver. All participants will be considered unsuitable for liver tumour resection and/or is refractory to radiotherapy and other loco-regional therapies. MTL-CEBPA consists of a double stranded RNA formulated into a SMARTICLES® liposomal nanoparticle and is designed to activate the CEBPA gene.
Ocular surface disease, especially dry eye and scleritis, commonly affects patients with autoimmune diseases. Ocular surface immune cells are increased in autoimmune disease; however the full subset of immune cells activated is unknown. Recent experimental studies show that dendritic cells and T cells in the cornea are critically associated with corneal nerve innervation. Corneal confocal microscopy (CCM) allows rapid non-invasive in vivo imaging of dendritic cells and corneal nerves. The investigators propose to investigate how ocular surface health, conjunctival immune cells and corneal nerve/dendritic cell morphology interact in 3 rheumatological conditions: Sjogren's syndrome (SS), Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The preliminary flow cytometric studies show that various immune cells (eg: T cells, B cells, and dendritic cells) can be quantified using minimally invasive impression membranes (Eyeprim). Clinically, the research team is experienced in measuring features of ocular surface inflammation (conjunctival redness, tear breakup times) with Oculus keratograph5M. The investigators also aim to harvest conjunctival immune cells using impression cytology and quantify specific cell types with flow cytometry. Corneal nerve morphology and dendritic cell density and distribution will be assessed using CCM; in collaboration with the group who have pioneered this technique. The investigator anticipate that alterations in corneal nerve and dendritic cell parameters will correlate with immune activation/inflammation, deterioration of tear function and increased systemic severity of the rheumatological disease. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that the lower the corneal nerve density, the higher the number of corneal dendritic cells and conjunctival inflammatory cells. Studying these relationships may allow a better mechanistic understanding of local corneal and systemic immune activation and the development of a non-invasive ophthalmic surrogate marker of dendritic cell activation and nerve fibre loss to aid earlier diagnosis, risk stratification and the development of new therapies in autoimmune patients with severe dry eye.
This study aims to profile the ocular surface inflammation of chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease patients by investigating conjunctival cells, and clinical imaging for conjunctival redness and tear stability. Hence, the investigators expect to find an increased in inflammatory cell population in GVHD conjunctival samples.
A phase I study of LTT462 in patients with advanced solid tumors that harbor MAPK pathway alterations.
This is a prospective, observational, multi-center cohort study of pediatric cardiac arrests. The purpose of the study is to determine the association between chest compression mechanics (rate, depth, flow fraction, compression release) and patient outcomes. In addition, the investigators will determine the association of post cardiac arrest care with patient outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a fermented infant formula on lactose digestion in lactose intolerant adults.
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of dietary fats, ingested in two physical forms, on acute energy balance, appetitive, and glycemic responses of healthy normal (BMI 18-24.9 kgm-2) or overweight (BMI>25kgm-2) adults.
Sleep apnea is a prevalent disorder in patients with coronary artery disease. Previous studies suggested sleep apnea was associated with coronary plaque burden and future adverse cardiovascular events after percutaneous coronary intervention. In the SABOT study, the investigators used a FDA-approved portable sleep device to diagnose sleep apnea, and evaluate the relationship between sleep apnea and cardiovascular outcomes after non-urgent coronary artery bypass surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the bactericidal activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis of pyrazinamide in combination with allopurinol. Pharmacokinetics (PK) and whole blood bactericidal activity (WBA) will be measured in healthy volunteers following administration of pyrazinamide alone and in combination with allopurinol.
An investigator initiated and conducted, multicentre, international, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, randomised controlled trial to determine the effect of more intensive blood pressure control provided by a fixed low-dose combination blood pressure lowering pill ("Triple Pill") strategy on top of standard of care, on time to first occurrence of recurrent stroke in patients with a history of stroke due to intracerebral haemorrhage.
