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.
Prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled (patients as their own control) trial on an external mesh device (eSVS™, Kips Bay Medical) supporting saphenous vein grafts for coronary bypass graft surgery in patients with multi-vessel coronary heart disease.
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.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether dasatinib is safe and effective in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), or in children with Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), accelerated or blast phases CML who relapse after imatinib or who are resistant or intolerant to imatinib. The side effects of this oral investigational drug in children and adolescents will be evaluated
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.
Primary Objective To evaluate the 3-month event-free survival of the combination of the combination of itraconazole and pemetrexed in patients with recurrent/refractory non-small cell lung cancer. Secondary Objectives To determine the objective response rate of the combination of itraconazole and pemetrexed in patients with recurrent/refractory non-small cell lung cancer.
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 evaluate if the P.F.C. Sigma RPF knee accommodates functional stability with a post-operative passive range of motion of greater than 125° of flexion and to demonstrate that the range of motion does not compromise the longevity of the implant.
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.
