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.
Gliclazide has greater glucose lowering efficacy than glibenclamide among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with minor haplotype (K23/A1369) at the KCNJ11/ABCC gene locations.
Part A: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of Xentuzumab (BI 836845) in combination with afatinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer with progression following prior treatment (EGFR TKI or platinum-based chemotherapy). Part B: To evaluate the early anti-tumour activity of Xentuzumab (BI 836845) in combination with afatinib in patients with EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer with progression following prior irreversible EGFR TKIs. Part A and B: To evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of BI 836845 in combination with afatinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer
This study is an open-label, multi-center, phase 1, dose escalation study with a phase 2 expansion cohort to determine the safety, pharmacokinetics and preliminary anti-tumor activity of intravenous TKM-080301 in subjects with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study is being done to: - Test the safety and tolerability of TKM-080301 in subjects with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma - Find the highest dose of TKM-080301 that can be given without causing side effects, called the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). - Provide a preliminary assessment of anti-tumor activity of TKM-080301
Locally, stroke remains the 4th cause of death, causing 8.4% of deaths annually in Singapore, and a leading cause of neurological disability worldwide. Nearly 40% of the stroke survivors will require specialized rehabilitation. In recent years, robot-aided therapy has been proposed as a means of complementing traditional therapy to alleviate the burden on therapists and on the healthcare system. For shoulder/elbow rehabilitation, dozens of robots have been proposed in the literature but only half a dozen have been commercialized and typically none are seen in local clinics, due to exceedingly high costs. A novel, compact, inexpensive robotic interface, named 'H-Man', was recently designed and developed at NTU for experiments in motor control neuroscience. The H-man can generate computer-controlled force fields to assist or resist a subject's motion and is potentially an optimal trade-off between clinical efficacy and robotic complexity. A first prototype of the H-Man is available at NTU.The primary aim of this proposed project is to assess to what extent the investigators H-Man is suitable for rehabilitation purposes using a feasibility pilot clinical trial design involving stroke survivors. The investigators believe that H-Man can be used for neuro-rehabilitation of stroke patients with hemiparetic weakness, motor incoordination and motor ataxia of the upper limbs.In close cooperation between clinicians at the TTSH and NTU engineers, a portable version of the H-Man will be developed which will be tested in a 12 subject Pilot study, refined and then used in a 44 subject Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) study. At the same time, the feasibility of H-Man integration for a pared down home use model will be assessed in 4 subjects. The investigators primary hypothesis is that sub-acute/chronic patients will exhibit clinically significant decreases of impairment when training with the H-Man combined with standard arm therapy on robot-measured scales and standardized clinical scales, at the level of elbow/shoulder after 18 sessions of training on the H-Man.
The objective of this study is to confirm the safety and efficacy of the new Sentus OTW QP LV lead and Iperia ICD family. The study focuses on the safety and efficacy of the QP device system.
Uric acid may be involved in the activation of the innate immune response in osteoarthritis (OA) pathology and progression. This suggests that traditional gout therapy may be beneficial for OA. Our goal therefore is to assess colchicine, an existing commercially available agent for gout, for a new therapeutic indication-knee OA. The investigators propose a randomized clinical trial (RCT) of 16 weeks' therapy with standard daily dose oral colchicine or placebo for knee OA. The investigators hypothesize that colchicine will block inflammasome mediated inflammation, thereby improve the signs and symptoms of OA, and reduce synovial fluid, serum and urine inflammatory and biochemical joint degradation biomarkers. This trial will potentially provide data to support a new treatment option for knee OA.
ABSORB IV is a prospective, randomized (1:1, Absorb BVS to XIENCE), single-blind, multi-center study, registering approximately 2610 subjects from approximately 140 sites in the United States and outside the United States. ABSORB IV is a continuation of ABSORB III (NCT01751906) trial which are maintained under one protocol because both trial designs are related. The data from ABSORB III and ABSORB IV will be pooled to support the ABSORB IV primary endpoint. Both the trials will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Absorb BVS. The ABSORB IV Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) is designed to continue to evaluate the safety and effectiveness as well as the potential short and long-term benefits of Abbott Vascular Absorb™ Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold (BVS) System, and the Absorb GT1™ BVS System (once commercially available), as compared to the commercially approved, control stent XIENCE.
The main objective of this study is to compare a Dual Antithrombotic Therapy (DAT) regimen of 110mg dabigatran etexilate b.i.d. plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor (110mg dabigatran etexilate (DE) DAT) and 150mg dabigatran etexilate b.i.d. plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor (150mg DE-DAT) with a Triple Antithrombotic Therapy (TAT) combination of warfarin plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor plus Aspirin (ASA) <= 100mg once daily (warfarin-TAT) in patients with Atrial Fibrillation that undergo a PCI with stenting (elective or due to an Acute Coronary Syndrome). The study aims to show non-inferiority of each dose of DE-DAT when compared to Warfarin-TAT in terms of safety. Safety will be determined by comparing the rates of bleeding events, assessed using the modified International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis classification of Major Bleeding and Clinically Relevant Non Major Bleeding Events.
The study evaluates the efficacy of fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium bromide/vilanterol (FF/UMEC/VI) to reduce the annual rate of moderate and severe exacerbations compared with dual therapy of FF/VI or UMEC/VI in subjects with COPD. Published studies which assessed the use of an 'open' triple therapy (use of Inhaled Corticosteroid [ICS]/ Long-acting Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists [LAMA])/ Long Acting Beta-Agonist [LABA] delivered via multiple inhalers) in moderate-severe COPD patients, reported improvements in lung function, Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), hospitalization rates and rescue medication use, compared to dual therapy (ICS/LABA) or LAMA alone. These studies have also shown similar safety profile with dual or monotherapy doses for periods of up to one year. Given the clinical experience with FF, UMEC and VI, and that the associated risks with these compounds are anticipated from their known pharmacology, the potential benefit of a new therapy option in patients with moderate to severe COPD supports the further development of the closed triple combination (delivered via one inhaler). In the current study subjects meeting all inclusion/exclusion criteria will complete 2-week run-in period; 52 week treatment period and a 1-week safety follow-up period. Eligible subjects will be randomized to one of the following double-blind treatment groups FF/UMEC/VI 100 micrograms (mcg)/62.5 mcg/25 mcg once daily (QD), FF/VI 100 mcg/25 mcg QD, or UMEC/VI 62.5 mcg/25 mcg QD
The primary objective of the study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of veliparib in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel (C/P) compared to placebo plus C/P in participants with a Breast Cancer Gene 1 or 2 (BRCA1; BRCA2) mutation in Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic or locally advanced unresectable breast cancer. The secondary objectives of the study are to assess overall survival (OS), clinical benefit rate (CBR) through the end of Week 24, objective response rate (ORR) and PFS on subsequent therapy (PFS2) in participants treated with veliparib in combination with C/P versus placebo in combination with C/P.
