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.
The purpose of this extension study is to collect long-term efficacy, safety and tolerability data on remibrutinib in a selected group of participants with Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU) who previously completed the treatment phase of remibrutinib preceding Phase 3 studies. This study will also fulfill the Novartis commitment to provide post-trial access to participants who have completed the preceding Phase 3 studies, where applicable.
This study aims to explore: (1) the relationship between lifestyle factors (eating, movement behaviour, sleep and stress) and glycaemic profile, and (2) the feasibility of delivering lifestyle intervention through the proposed mHealth strategy.
This study is open to adults with advanced cancer in the biliary tract, pancreas, lung, or bladder. This is a study for people for whom previous treatment was not successful or no treatment exists. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 907828 helps people with cancer in the biliary tract, pancreas, lung, or bladder. BI 907828 is a so-called MDM2 inhibitor that is being developed to treat cancer. All participants take BI 907828 as a tablet once every 3 weeks. Participants may continue to take BI 907828 as long as they benefit from treatment and can tolerate it. They visit the study site regularly. At the study site, doctors regularly check the size of the tumour and whether it has spread to other parts of the body. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
Brief Summary: The aim of this project is to examine: 1. The effects of a community based square stepping exercise programme on cognitive and physical functions in older adults. 2. The effects of a community based square stepping exercise programme on neuroplasticity in older adults. 3. The effects of a community based square stepping exercise programme on structural and functional brain changes in older adults. 4. The relationship between exercise-induced changes in neuroplasticity, structural and functional brain activations, and cognitive and physical gains in older adults.
The overall aim is to build an AI driven national Platform for CT cOronary angiography for clinicaL and industriaL applicatiOns (APOLLO) for automated anonymization, reporting, Agatston scoring and plaque quantification in CAD. It is a "one-stop" platform spanning diagnosis to clinical management and prognosis, and aid in predicting pharmacotherapy response.
This study essentially consists of the prospective collection of mapping data derived from patients undergoing clinically indicated 3D mapping procedures. There is no intervention. The mapping data is used to construct and/or validate new activation mapping algorithms but will not be used to direct clinical treatment of the patient.
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is one of the largest and fast-growing causes of pain, impaired mobility, and poor quality of life in the elderly worldwide. Despite a significant increase in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) utilisation, in particular acupuncture, as first or second-line treatment among local KOA patients, there exists a lack of high-quality evidence on its efficacy and local practice guidelines for TCM use in KOA tailored to our specific population demographic. HarmoKNEE trial aims to address these gaps by evaluating the short and medium-term clinical and cost-effectiveness of TCM acupuncture with far-infrared heat therapy in addition to standard care, compared to standard care alone. Through a robust process and economic evaluation, the investigators aim to inform evidence-based practice for KOA patients in Singapore to facilitate the large-scale implementation of a comprehensive and holistic model of care which harmonises elements from Western medicine and TCM. The investigators hypothesize that acupuncture with heat therapy as an adjunct to standard care is clinically more effective than standard care alone. This will be a multi-centre pragmatic, parallel-arm, single-blinded, effectiveness-implementation hybrid randomised control trial. KOA patients will be randomised to either the control arm (standard care only) or intervention arm (biweekly sessions of acupuncture with heat therapy over 6 weeks, in addition to standard care). A mixed-method approach through an embedded process evaluation will facilitate large scale implementation. An economic evaluation will be performed to evaluate financial sustainability
The study is a cluster-randomised controlled trial set in Singapore, to assess if the deployment of male Wolbachia-infected Aedes aegypti mosquitoes can reduce dengue incidence in intervention clusters.
In collaboration with Raffles Medical Group, we will be recruiting 500 patients and following them for the next 3-12 months to see whether pharmacogenomics information provided in the Raffles' Electronic Health Records (EHR) will be used by physicians to personalize patients' prescriptions.
Wrist-worn wearables are used for fitness and health monitoring. This global expansion of wearable technology opens up opportunities for the diagnosis and management of chronic conditions. Diabetic patients have a two to three-fold higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease and that cardiovascular diseases accounted for 29.2.% of all deaths in Singapore. The wearable device is a promising avenue that allows for continuous monitoring of the large population of patients. Its ubiquitous and easy to use nature is an added advantage for its implementation. In this study, the investigators aim to leverage existing photoplethysmography (PPG) technology, together with artificial intelligence, to accurately monitor blood glucose levels in a continuous and non-invasive manner. A simple non-invasive tool to monitor blood glucose will be developed, and alerts will be issued when the blood glucose levels fall in the unhealthy range. A standard glucometer will be used to calibrate and validate PPG measurements of blood glucose. This study aims to recruit 500 participants from KK Women's and Children's Hospital.
