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 Phase 2, randomized, placebo-controlled, and observer-blind study in healthy adults. The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the SARS-CoV-2 RNA vaccine candidate against COVID-19: As 2 doses (at two different dose levels), separated by 28 days or as 1 dose In adults 18 years of age and older
This is a study for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL) who have previously received treatment with at least a BTK inhibitor. The main purpose is to compare LOXO-305 to idelalisib plus rituximab or bendamustine plus rituximab. Participation could last up to four years, and possibly longer, if the disease does not progress.
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is biologically aggressive and has limited systemic treatment options, often compounded by treatment resistance. Cell state transitions, e.g. epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) govern cancer cell behaviour. The investigators hypothesize that by inducing change in cell state change, TNBC cells that have manifested taxane-resistance will be more sensitized to subsequent chemotherapy.
Launched in April 2015 , Gym Tonic is the first of its kind cross-border exercise-as-medicine partnership between research institutions, business enterprises and service providers from Singapore and Finland. What sets Gym Tonic apart from other exercise programmes is its singular focus on strength training, necessary for frailty prevention and maintenance of functional independence for the elderly. This randomized-control trial is to validate the Gym Tonic programme and data as well measuring its effectiveness in improving physical functions and reversing frailty.
Obesity, in addition to causing abnormal glucose and lipid metabolism, is also associated with altered plasma concentrations of multiple amino acids, including increased levels of branched-chain amino acids and decreased levels of glycine. The mechanisms and consequences of obesity- related glycine deficiency are unknown. The overall aim of this project is to comprehensively study glycine metabolic pathways in morbid obesity using stable-isotope tracer techniques in human subjects and validating kinetic findings using a cell model of oxidative stress. This will be a single-centre, observational study. 21 individuals with morbid obesity scheduled for bariatric surgery and 21 non-obese controls will be recruit. They will undergo different study visits and procedures and the human biological materials collected will be analysed for as per aims of the studies. We believe that the glycine metabolic pathways, possibly through the optimization of gluthathione (GSH) synthesis, may provide targets to develop novel therapeutic agents.
This is a global Phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant treatment with atezolizumab compared with placebo in participants with MIBC who are ctDNA positive and are at high risk for recurrence following cystectomy.
With an increase in breast cancer survivors (BCS) in Singapore, the current oncologist-centric survivorship model will not be sustainable to respond to the rising demand of survivorship care services. To meet the long-term healthcare needs of Singaporeans in a sustainable manner, the investigators propose to pilot a breast cancer survivorship inter-professional community (BASIC) care model for cancer survivorship. This pilot study aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of this care model for implementation among BCS and healthcare providers. The investigators hypothesize that the BASIC model is feasible and acceptable to be evaluated on a larger scale. This new follow-up model can potentially reduce waiting times in tertiary centers without compromising quality of care, directly benefiting participants through more efficient follow-up sessions.
This study aims to evaluate the effects of oral glycine supplementation on plasma glycine concentration, intracellular glutathione (GSH) concentration, plasma acylglycine concentration, urine acylglycine concentration, and insulin resistance in subjects with morbid obesity. This is an open-labelled trial. 20 adults with morbid obesity will be recruited. Following screening and baseline metabolic evaluations, eligible subjects will be given oral glycine supplements for 14 ± 5 days. Upon completing glycine supplementation, subjects will return for their post-supplement metabolic assessment. The investigators hypothesize that oral glycine supplementation in morbidly obese patients normalizes plasma glycine concentration, increases intracellular GSH concentration, increases plasma and urinary acylglycine concentration, and improves insulin resistance.
Study WR42221 is a Phase IIIb, global, multicenter, randomized, visual assessor-masked study designed to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of the Port Delivery System with ranibizumab (PDS) 100 mg/mL delivered every 36 weeks (Q36W) compared with every 24 weeks (Q24W) in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).
The current healthcare response to frailty has been mainly reactive to acute health crises of the elderly. With its insidious onset and progression, frailty is often not apparent unless actively sought. Well-validated models of frailty already exist and, instead of trying to create new frailty criteria or insisting on a universal approach to measuring frailty, it is needed to move on to higher levels of care systems supporting their practical implementation, mapping the chosen frailty instrument to its specific role. This pragmatic study will equip older persons with awareness of their frailty status through community-based screening, allowing for timely stage-specific care to avoid deleterious outcomes. While older persons meeting frailty criteria will be referred for comprehensive geriatric assessment, pre-frail older persons will be targeted for multi-factorial exercise and nutritional intervention in the community to reverse the frailty trajectory. An over-arching aim will be to create a sustainable triaging system and early intervention programme that can be administered by trained members of the community. This will allow older persons to receive regular re-assessments in the community such that any transitions to a higher state of frailty may be captured and promptly addressed.
