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.
Following the findings of the clinical trials in drug development, this global non-interventional cohort field study will investigate rivaroxaban under clinical practice conditions in comparison with current standard of care for patients with acute venous thoromboembolism (VTE). The main goal is to analyze long-term safety in the use of rivaroxaban in the treatment of acute VTE in routine clinical practice.
The study aims to determine the better device to facilitate intubation in patients with a limited neck movement and small mouth opening. This may help anesthesiology as well as emergency medicine practitioners and departments to decide when choosing between these two conceptually similar device. The hypothesis to be tested is that the C-MAC® is more superior when compared to the Bonfils Intubation Fibrescope in success of intubation, time to intubation and complication rate in patients with a fixed cervical collar.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether either trastuzumab or the combination of trastuzumab and pertuzumab with standard chemotherapy shows more activity against gastro-oesophageal adenocarcinoma than standard chemotherapy given before and after surgery and it can be safely administered.
The overall aim of the trial is to investigate the safety and anti-tumour activity of an experimental drug BI 836845 taken together with the prostate cancer drug, enzalutamide, compared to enzalutamide given alone, in castrate resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients that have previously been treated and failed on docetaxel and abiraterone treatments. Initially, a tolerability and safety phase (phase Ib escalation) will be performed to confirm the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), or recommended doses of both BI 836845 and enzalutamide that can be taken together. Once the MTD, or recommended phase II dose, have been determined an expansion cohort will also be explored (phase Ib expansion) in CRPC patients already taking enzalutamide and have a rise in prostate serum antigen (PSA) levels. Patients may not have received prior docetaxel or abiraterone. Patients in this cohort will receive the MTD, or recommended phase II dose, of BI 836845 and enzalutamide determined in the phase Ib escalation phase. The randomised trial (phase II) will be an open label, parallel group study design in a 1:1 ratio to which patients will receive either BI 836845 plus enzalutamide (Arm A) at the MTD/recommended doses, or enzalutamide alone (Arm B). In all parts of the trial safety, anti-tumour activity will be assessed, in addition to circulating tumour cells (CTC), prostate serum antigen (PSA) response and progression, and determination of Overall Survival (OS).
Gliclazide has greater glucose lowering efficacy than glibenclamide among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with minor haplotype (K23/A1369) at the KCNJ11/ABCC gene locations.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve Replacement (TAVR) in the Asian Pacific population
Part A: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of Xentuzumab (BI 836845) in combination with afatinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer with progression following prior treatment (EGFR TKI or platinum-based chemotherapy). Part B: To evaluate the early anti-tumour activity of Xentuzumab (BI 836845) in combination with afatinib in patients with EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer with progression following prior irreversible EGFR TKIs. Part A and B: To evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of BI 836845 in combination with afatinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer
This study is an open-label, multi-center, phase 1, dose escalation study with a phase 2 expansion cohort to determine the safety, pharmacokinetics and preliminary anti-tumor activity of intravenous TKM-080301 in subjects with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study is being done to: - Test the safety and tolerability of TKM-080301 in subjects with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma - Find the highest dose of TKM-080301 that can be given without causing side effects, called the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). - Provide a preliminary assessment of anti-tumor activity of TKM-080301
To estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended dose for phase II (RP2D) of CLR457 and to investigate the anti-tumor activity of CLR457
Locally, stroke remains the 4th cause of death, causing 8.4% of deaths annually in Singapore, and a leading cause of neurological disability worldwide. Nearly 40% of the stroke survivors will require specialized rehabilitation. In recent years, robot-aided therapy has been proposed as a means of complementing traditional therapy to alleviate the burden on therapists and on the healthcare system. For shoulder/elbow rehabilitation, dozens of robots have been proposed in the literature but only half a dozen have been commercialized and typically none are seen in local clinics, due to exceedingly high costs. A novel, compact, inexpensive robotic interface, named 'H-Man', was recently designed and developed at NTU for experiments in motor control neuroscience. The H-man can generate computer-controlled force fields to assist or resist a subject's motion and is potentially an optimal trade-off between clinical efficacy and robotic complexity. A first prototype of the H-Man is available at NTU.The primary aim of this proposed project is to assess to what extent the investigators H-Man is suitable for rehabilitation purposes using a feasibility pilot clinical trial design involving stroke survivors. The investigators believe that H-Man can be used for neuro-rehabilitation of stroke patients with hemiparetic weakness, motor incoordination and motor ataxia of the upper limbs.In close cooperation between clinicians at the TTSH and NTU engineers, a portable version of the H-Man will be developed which will be tested in a 12 subject Pilot study, refined and then used in a 44 subject Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) study. At the same time, the feasibility of H-Man integration for a pared down home use model will be assessed in 4 subjects. The investigators primary hypothesis is that sub-acute/chronic patients will exhibit clinically significant decreases of impairment when training with the H-Man combined with standard arm therapy on robot-measured scales and standardized clinical scales, at the level of elbow/shoulder after 18 sessions of training on the H-Man.
