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 study was to determine whether treatment with tamoxifen or a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors (NSAI) + goserelin + LEE011 prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) compared to treatment with tamoxifen or a NSAI + goserelin + placebo in premenopausal women with hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer.
Medtronic , Inc. is sponsoring the World-wide Randomized Antibiotic Envelope Infection Prevention Trial (WRAP-IT), a randomized, prospective, multi-center, single blinded, post-market, interventional clinical study. This study will evaluate the ability of the TYRX™ envelope to reduce major Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device (CIED) infections through 12-months post-procedure following CIED generator replacement, upgrade, revision, or de novo cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) implant. Additionally, this large device study provides the unique opportunity to prospectively characterize the performance of Medtronic's lead monitoring features in subjects whose CIED system includes a transvenous right ventricular (RV) defibrillation lead. Finally, the WRAP-IT study will serve as a post-approval study for those geographies requiring a post-approval study of the TYRX™ envelope.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to confirm the efficacy and safety of Dupilumab monotherapy in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).
Hypotension occurs commonly during spinal anaesthesia for caesarean section with maternal and fetal adverse effects. The investigators developed a double-vasopressor automated system incorporating continuous non-invasive haemodynamic monitoring using NexfinTM with a two-step algorithm.
The primary objectives of this study are to compare the efficacy of pain relief between epidural oxycodone and epidural morphine for postoperative analgesia after elective caesarean section and to compare the incidence and severity of pruritus. Secondary objectives are to compare other side effects of epidural administered oxycodone and morphine (nausea and vomiting, sedation, respiratory depression) and to investigate the safety and efficacy of epidural oxycodone and epidural morphine after use for postoperative analgesia in caesarean sections.
High-protein diets better preserve lean mass than conventional low-fat diets. However, they are costly and have potential health risks. Preserving lean mass is important for sustaining high resting energy expenditure, leading to greater initial weight loss, better weight maintenance and improving blood sugar levels. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) supplements are known to preserve lean mass but their effects during weight loss have not been examined. Investigators want to investigate if a BCAA-supplemented diet is more effective than a standard hypocaloric diet in terms of the aforementioned benefits, and yet has less detrimental effects than a high-protein diet for weight loss. Using a 16-week weight loss and 8-week weight maintenance intervention, overweight and obese men and women will be randomized to either a hypocaloric diet with BCAA or placebo supplements or a high-protein diet with placebo supplements. Participants' compliance to the diet versus supplements will be compared. Body composition, resting and diet-induced energy expenditure, insulin sensitivity will be measured and blood samples taken before and after weight loss. These findings will inform on the benefits of BCAA-supplementation during energy restriction and may offer an alternative cost-effective strategy for weight loss and maintenance, without the adverse health effects of a high-protein load.
BIOLUX P-III is a prospective, international, multi-centre, postmarket all-comers registry to collect clinical performance data on the Passeo-18 Lux paclitaxel releasing balloon catheter in the treatment of atherosclerotic disease of the infrainguinal arteries.
Glaucoma topical eye medications, when adhered to, are effective at controlling disease progression. Yet evidence shows that many glaucoma patients have incomplete adherence to medications, with disease progression resulting in significant costs to the patient and health system. Through the approach of value pricing, a link can be made between non-adherence and its resulting costs by granting subsidies to adherent patients for their medications and physician visits. This 6-month randomized controlled trial among 100 glaucoma patients from the Singapore National Eye Centre aims to test the extent to which value pricing can improve medication adherence.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CC-486 in previously treated patients with locally advanced or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma having failed one to two previous regimens, including platinum-based chemotherapy. Participants will be enrolled according to a Simon two-stage design; if the predefined activity is met (>4 responses [complete response; partial response {CR/PR}] out of the first 17 evaluable participants based on independent radiological assessment), then the study will continue to enroll an additional 34 participants. If 4 or less responses out of 17 are observed, then the study enrollment will be stopped.
This study is designed to test if CSJ148 can prevent HCMV replication after stem cell transplantation.
