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.
This is a mono-centre, prospective, one-arm, unmask clinical trial to evaluate the effectiveness of test lens in slowing myopia progression with respect to axial length elongation compared to a single vision spectacle lens from the historical control group of another clinical trial NCT05331378. A total of 40 children will be recruited.
This is an interventional, non-randomized, single site study. Brain tumor samples will be collected from patients for organoids generation and subject to panel drugs screening and QPOP analysis to derive the optimal drug combinations for treatment at the time of first high grade astrocytic glioma recurrence. The investigators hypothesize that patient-derived organoids (PDOs) mimic the biological characteristics of high grade astrocytic gliomas and serve as an ideal platform for the evaluation of drug sensitivities, accurately reflecting the patient's therapeutic response to the drugs.
The purpose of this research project is to assess the glycaemic controlling effects of consuming BSG and bio-transformed BSG-containing biscuits and its underlying gut - related mechanism in adults with MetS using in-vivo setting.
To assess the efficacy and safety of osimertinib in participants with EGFRm positive stage II-IIIB NSCLC, following complete tumour resection with or without adjuvant chemotherapy.
This is a randomized, multi-centric, placebo-controlled, participant and investigator-blinded study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of TIN816 in adult patients at risk for acute kidney injury following cardiac surgery.
This phase 1 study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the application of the MSC exosome ointment with repeated topical application on adult healthy subjects (TID from Day 1 to 20). The results of this study were to provide the first clinical information on the drug's safety and inform the selection of administration of exosome ointment to be evaluated in subsequent clinical studies. The endpoints included to assess the safety and tolerability of exosome ointment for topical application in healthy adult volunteers are: - Frequency of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) - The incidence rate of local skin responses (LSR, i.e., erythema, flaking/scaling, crusting, swelling, vesiculation/pustulation, erosion/ulceration, hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation, and scarring) [Time Frame: Days 1 and 21] - Changes from baseline in blood parameters (including hematology, chemistry, and other inflammation parameters such as C-reactive protein [CRP] and erythrocyte sedimentation rate [ESR]) [Time Frame: Days 1 and 21]
This is a prospective platform study that will investigate the outcomes of patients with locoregionally-advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LA-NPC) or recurrent-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (RM-NPC) who are assigned to treatment arms of different chemotherapy sequencing and intensity based on their pre- and on-treatment plasma EBV DNA results.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the 7th most common cancer worldwide but is the 4th deadliest, because diagnosis tend to be late and current systemic therapies are poorly efficacious. Within the same tumour, different parts of the HCC can belong to separate molecular sub-groups. In addition, there is currently no validated predictive biomarkers to help clinicians select the best therapy for an individual patient. This challenge poses an urgent, unmet clinical need. To address this, the multi-disciplinary research program Precision Medicine in Liver Cancer across an Asia-Pacific Network (PLANet 1.0) was conceptualized and successfully conducted from 2016-22. The program uncovered novel insights into the highly heterogeneous molecular landscape of HCC and novel mechanisms, including how HCC reverts to fetal forms to escape the body's immunological defence. These investigations will be continued in PLANet 2.0 and in this new phase, the research team will investigate patients receiving best-in-class therapeutics in 2 investigator-initiated clinical studies (AHCC12 and AHCC13), including Atezolizumab plus Bevacizumab (Atezo+Bev) and Yttrium-90, which allows the research team to collect longitudinal, before and after treatment biosamples and clinical data. These clinical studies will serve as proof-of-concept to the study team's translational findings and allow it to uncover predictive biomarkers which will help clinicians to institute more efficacious and personalized treatment in the future. The research team comprises of experts in different complementary fields (epigenomics, genomics, immunomics, metabolomics, proteomics, clinical science and data science) and across different institutions. This allows the team to adopt an integrative approach in understanding the landscape of the HCC tumour micro-environment and biomarkers co-localisation, and their role in tumour evolution and therapeutic response. By adopting a wide spectrum of converging investigations, PLANet 2.0 will identify and validate biomarkers that correlate with clinical outcomes (response, resistance and recurrence).
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death and disability in Singapore and worldwide. Many patients with multi-vessel CAD require surgical revascularisation by coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, and are at risk of postsurgical complications such as peri-operative myocardial injury (PMI), left ventricular dysfunction, heart failure, and death. This risk is particularly important given that the aging population, and increased prevalence of co-morbidities (diabetes, hypertension, renal failure) and complexity of cardiac surgery, mean that higher risk patients are undergoing CABG surgery. As such, new treatment strategies are required to protect the heart during CABG surgery in order to improve health outcomes in patients with CAD. In this regard, a number of animal studies have demonstrated that electroacupuncture (EA) at cardiac-related acupoints can protect the heart against the detrimental effects of acute ischaemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). However, the mechanisms underlying the beneficial effect of EA, and whether EA can protect the heart against PMI in patients undergoing CABG surgery are not known. Therefore, in this research proposal, the investigators will investigate whether EA at cardiac-related acupoints can protect the heart against PMI during CABG surgery, and the investigators will elucidate the mechanisms underlying the cardioprotective effects of EA.
The main purpose of this study is to measure how well imlunestrant works compared to standard hormone therapy in participants with early breast cancer that is estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and human epidermal receptor 2 negative (HER2-). Participants must have already taken endocrine therapy for two to five years and must have a higher-than-average risk for their cancer to return. Study participation could last up to 10 years.
