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.
Today, insufficient sleep has become a growing global problem. Sleep is essential to health and changes in sleep patterns are a part of the aging process. Inadequate and low-quality sleep also increases the risk for age-related cognitive decline and disease conditions. More importantly, due to COVID-19 health emergency, there is a significant increase of psychological distress and symptoms of mental illness and a worsening of quality of sleep. Therefore, there is an urgent need to investigate the way of improving sleep quality, in particular during and post COVID-19 period, in older adults. One of the possible strategies in improving sleep quality with lifestyle modification is having higher-protein diet. However, this effect has not been fully elucidated in older adults. In addition, the effect of type of dietary protein on sleep quality is inconclusive and there is no clinical trial which assessed the differential response in sleep quality between animal-sourced protein vs. plant-sourced protein. Therefore, the purpose of this research project is to assess the impact of different types of higher dietary protein intake on sleep quality in Singapore older adults. Findings from the proposed research will provide the scientific evidence of the beneficial effects of regularly consuming higher-protein diet on sleep quality in Singapore older adults. In addition, this research may validate the differential effect of different type of dietary protein on sleep quality. The results from the proposed research will also assist a practical guidance of nutritional behaviour changes providing sleep promoting effects to a large proportion of the Singapore population.
In this study, the combined effects of functional foods (i.e. Anthocyanin fortified bread, Microfluidic co-flow noodles, 5ibrePlus™-fortified white rice) is investigated in an ad-libitum diet and their contributions to diabetes management.
This is an open-label, multicenter, phase I study, which primary objective is to characterize the safety and tolerability of PIT565 and to identify maximal tolerated doses (MTDs) and/or recommended doses (RDs), schedule and route of administration in relapsed and/or refractory B-cell Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R B-NHL) and relapsed and/or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B-ALL).
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is a miserable disease with poor treatment outcome. Intraperitoneal administration of anticancer drugs enables an extremely high concentration of drugs to directly contact the target cancer lesions in the peritoneal cavity. However, its effectiveness is limited by the intraperitoneal distribution and penetration of the drug. Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) is an innovative intraperitoneal chemotherapy concept that enhances efficacy by taking advantage of the physical properties of gas and pressure. Electrostatic precipitation pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (ePIPAC) may further enhance these benefits. This research study serves to determine the safety profile and tolerability of PIPAC/ePIPAC with paclitaxel. It will determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) and evaluate the safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of PIPAC/ePIPAC paclitaxel in pre-treated patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). It may offer a novel and effective option of treatment for patients with PC, who, at present have limited options involving the use of systemic chemotherapy and who suffer from poor life expectancy and poor quality of life.
The investigators propose a pilot study to determine if autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) improves ovarian reserves and In-vitro fertilisation (IVF) outcomes in women with diminished ovarian reserve / premature ovarian insufficiency.
Phase 1/2, dose escalation and expansion study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of NVL-655, determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and evaluate the antitumor activity in patients with advanced ALK- positive (ALK+) NSCLC and other solid tumors. Phase 1 will evaluate the overall safety and tolerability of NVL-655 and will determine the RP2D and, if applicable, the MTD of NVL-655 in patients with advanced ALK+ solid tumors. Phase 2 will determine the objective response rate (ORR) as assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) of NVL-655 at the RP2D. Secondary objectives will include the duration of response (DOR), time to response (TTR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and clinical benefit rate (CBR) of NVL-655 in patients with advanced ALK-positive NSCLC and other solid tumors.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) between sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (SG) versus treatment of physician's choice (TPC) in participants with previously untreated, locally advanced, inoperable or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer whose tumors do not express programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) or in participants previously treated with anti-programmed cell death (ligand or protein) 1 (Anti-PD-(L)1) Agents in the early setting whose tumors do express PD-L1.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) between sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (SG) and pembrolizumab versus treatment of physician's choice (TPC) and pembrolizumab in participants with previously untreated, locally advanced inoperable or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer, whose tumors express programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1).
This pilot feasibility study aims to set the foundation to investigate the applicability of QPOP drug selection followed by CURATE.AI-guided dose optimisation of the selected azacitidine combination therapy for solid tumours using CURATE.AI within the current clinical setting. QPOP will identify drug interactions towards optimal efficacy and cytotoxicity from the pre-specified drug pool based on ex vivo experimental data from the individual participant's tissue sample model. With these drug interactions, QPOP will identify the optimal drugs for the specific participant whose biopsy provided the cells for the ex vivo experimentation. Subsequently, CURATE.AI will be used to guide dosing for the selected combination therapy for that participant. Individualised CURATE.AI profiles will be generated based on each participant's response to a set of drug doses. Subsequently, the personalised CURATE.AI profile will be used to recommend the efficacy-driven dose. CURATE.AI will operate only within the safety range for each drug pre-specified for each participant. This pilot feasibility study will inform the investigators on the logistical and scientific feasibility of performing a large-scale randomised controlled trial (RCT) with the selected azacitidine combination therapy regimens and response markers. A secondary objective is to collect toxicity and efficacy data using established and exploratory response markers within and in-between cycles as exploratory outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate visual outcomes in patients with complex corneas who have been previously implanted with the IC-8 IOL after cataract removal.
