There are about 2094 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Malaysia. 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.
Late-stage presentation of breast cancer cases are on the rise in Malaysia. Encouraging breast screening practices can assist in early breast cancer detection. Literature has proven that behavior interventions in the form of behavior change health communication using social messaging applications is a viable strategy and potentially effective at motivating breast cancer screening among the public. Such studies are scarce in the South East Asian region, particularly in Malaysia, which is the prime motivation for the current study, Based on this promising prospect, we designed a randomized controlled trial to study the effects of applying persuasive health communication materials to initiate behavior change among a group of Malaysian women. Materials are delivered in the form of a health communication program over a social messaging application to promote breast cancer screening practices, which is either a clinical breast examination, or a mammogram. We hypothesize that Malaysian women who are exposed to such materials that are designed based on behavior science and behavior change principles will be nudged and hence more likely to attend breast cancer screening compared to a control group.
The objective of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Skal Pro in alleviating symptoms, enhancing stool consistency, improving quality of life, and addressing psychological distress in individuals diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), as compared to those who receive no intervention.
The goal of this randomised control trial is to learn about the effect of green tea consumption on patients with primary glaucoma. The main questions to answer are: 1. Is there any difference of intraocular pressure (IOP) in patient with primary glaucoma after 1 month, 3 months and 6 months who is consuming green tea compared to patient not consuming green tea? 2. Is there any difference of retina nerve fibre layer in patient with primary glaucoma after 1 month, 3months and 6 months who is consuming green tea compared to patient not consuming green tea? Researchers will compare patients with primary glaucoma who are consuming green tea and normal daily drinking to see if any affect to intraocular pressure and retina nerve fibre layer.
While prior research indicates the efficacy of High-Intensity Functional Training (HIFT) in improving physical fitness and skill performance across various sports , its effects on Wushu routine athletes still need to be determined. This study aims to explore the impact of high-intensity functional training on the physical fitness and jumping difficulty of Wushu routine athletes, providing valuable insights for coaches and athletes to optimize training plans. Coaches or sports researchers can use this knowledge to manage the training load of athletes better, thereby helping Wushu athletes achieve better results in Wushu jumping difficulty movements training.
This prospective study is subject to approval of institutional medical research ethics committee. Patient undergoing second cycle IVF will be enrolled into the intervention group. Intervention involved using a clinical decision support tool, Opt-IVF to guide gonadotrophins dosing and trigger dates for a personalized controlled ovarian stimulation cycle based on the distribution of follicle sizes on day 1 and day 5, and hormone dosages given on day 1 to 4. Patients will undergo transvaginal ultrasound exam on day 1 and day 5 of the cycle to determine the number and size of follicles present. The data is used in the Opt-IVF decision support tool to suggest Gonadotropin dosage for D5 and beyond and to recommend the antagonist start day and trigger day. Clinical investigators will not override the Opt-IVF recommended dosage in any patients.
The research study is being done to see if ziltivekimab can be used to treat people who were admitted to hospital because of a heart attack. Ziltivekimab might reduce development of heart disease, thereby preventing new heart attacks or strokes. Participants will either get ziltivekimab (active medicine) or placebo (a dummy medicine which has no effect on the body). Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. The chance of getting ziltivekimab or placebo is the same. Ziltivekimab is not yet approved in any country or region in the world. It is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe. The study will last for about 2 years.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of perioperative immunonutrition supplement in gynecologic cancer patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - is there any difference in the nutritional outcomes and functional outcomes between intervention and conventional groups? - is there any difference in the post-surgical outcomes between intervention and conventional groups? Participants (intervention) will be provided the immunonutrition supplement before and after operation. Researchers will compare intervention group with conventional group to see if there is any difference in postoperative outcomes.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of time-restricted eating in patients with history of acute coronary syndrome. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1) Is 10-hr TRE safe and feasible for patients with ACS; 2)What are the impacts of 10-hr TRE on anthropometric measurements, cardiometabolic health and cardiovascular health compared to ad libitum eating in patients with ACS?. Participants will be asked to limit eating duration to 10 hours daily.
The aim of this study is to measure the effectiveness usage of VOT in the treatment of TB in terms of treatment adherence. The study will be a randomized controlled trial and will involve 240 TB patients. The study is aimed to commence by December 2023. The study period will be for 4 months.
The study will aim to find out if the drug andexanet alfa is safe and effective in preventing major bleeding during urgent surgery or invasive procedures. The study will compare the use of andexanet alfa to the usual care given at the study center.
