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 phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with azacitidine in treating patients with nasopharyngeal cancer or nasal natural killer T-cell lymphoma that has recurred (come back) at or near the same place as the original (primary) tumor, usually after a period of time during which the cancer could not be detected or has spread to other parts of the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat and azacitidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Vorinostat and azacitidine also may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving vorinostat together with azacitidine may kill more cancer cells.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether a higher dosage of clopidogrel with aspirin (two doses) will decrease the risk of ischemic complications (cardiac death (CV death), myocardial infarction (MI), stroke) after a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and South America. The aim of this research is to compare the efficacy (reduction in HbA1c and blood glucose) and pulmonary safety (pulmonary function tests, chest x-rays) of mealtime inhaled insulin with subcutaneous insulin aspart both in combination with insulin detemir in Type 2 Diabetes.
To compare the toxicity and efficacy of the combination of BCG and interferon alpha to standard dose and low dose BCG alone in high risk superficial bladder cancer
This Year 3 extension of the main study rota-028, 029 or 030 is conducted to evaluate vaccine efficacy against severe rotavirus (RV) gastroenteritis (GE) during third year of life in infants previously vaccinated with human rotavirus (HRV) vaccine or placebo in the following schedules: at 3 and 4 months of age in study rota-028; at 2 and 4 months of age in study rota-029 or rota-030. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
To assess the safety and reactogenicity of the DTPa-IPV/Hib vaccine as primary and booster vaccination. The DTPa-IPV/Hib vaccine given at 3 and 4 months of age is co-administered with GSK Biologicals' rotavirus vaccine or Placebo. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
To assess the safety and reactogenicity of the DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine and DTPa-IPV/Hib vaccine. This DTPa-IPV/Hib vaccine given at 3 and 4 months of age is co-administered with GSK Biologicals' rotavirus vaccine or Placebo. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
Hemophilia, which results from deficiency of factor VIII or IX, is a common hereditary X-linked bleeding disorder affecting up to 10/100,000 population. About 60-70% of them have severe disease (factor level <1%). This group is characterized by the occurrence of frequent spontaneous bleeding into joints and soft tissues. If inadequately treated, it results in progressive damage to joints and muscles leading to crippling deformities. Close clinical observation of these patients over many years has shown that those with >1% levels have much less bleeding compared to those with less than 1%. This observation has gained immense clinical importance in planning therapy for these patients. To prevent progressive joint damage, the missing factor needs to be replaced. Much has evolved in this practice in the last 50 years. From administration of whole blood in the beginning, to plasma and cryoprecipitate, to purified plasma-derived concentrates and finally recombinant factor concentrates. The standard of therapy now is to replace factors frequently enough to maintain >1% factor levels at all times (“prophylaxis”) or administer immediately on premonition or earliest signs of bleeding (“on demand” therapy). This has greatly enhanced the quality of life of people with hemophilia. However, the optimal regimens of factor replacement remain to be defined. The definition of what is optimal management of this chronic condition, currently incurable for the vast majority of patients, varies significantly in different parts of the world, depending on practicality and social expectations. Models have care have been developed in Western countries based on careful documentation of outcome over many years. Such data is lacking from developing countries. This multi-center study aims to systematically record the outcome of musculoskeletal function in people with hemophilia in developing countries for the first time and provide information that can help plan care for the 80% of all hemophiliacs in the world who live in these countries. Currently there is no well documented model of care at the range of factor replacement practiced in these countries nor is there any significant information on the long-term outcome of musculo-skeletal function among these patients.
The purpose of this study is to compare gefitinib with carboplatin / paclitaxel doublet chemotherapy given as first line treatment in terms of progression free survival in selected NSCLC patients with the objective of demonstrating non-inferiority.
This study treats patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma whose disease is in complete remission due to previous treatment with Cyclophosphamide Doxorubicin hydrochloride Vincristine Prednisolone- Rituximab (CHOP-R). Half of the patients received Zevalin and the other half receive no further anti-cancer treatment. The two patient groups compared to determine if Zevalin given after CHOP-R therapy provides greater benefits than receiving no additional anti-cancer therapy after CHOP-R.
