There are about 2083 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.
This study compares the medicines semaglutide with empagliflozin or metformin in people with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. This study will look mainly at how well participant's blood sugar and body weight are controlled when they are taking the study medicines. Participants will either get semaglutide tablets, empagliflozin tablets or metformin tablets. Which treatment participants will get is decided by chance. Currently, doses of 3 milligram (mg), 7 mg and 14 mg semaglutide tablets (Rybelsus) can be prescribed in some countries. 25 mg and 50 mg semaglutide tablets are new doses. 10 mg and 25 mg empagliflozin tablets (Jardiance) can be prescribed in some countries. 500 mg metformin tablets (STADA) can be prescribed in some countries. Participants will get 1 to 4 tablets per day for 104 weeks. The study will last for about 2 years and 7 weeks (111 weeks). Participants should not have been treated for weight management 90 days before screening or never been treated with any medicine for type 2 diabetes (except diabetes during pregnancy) before screening. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to get pregnant during the study period.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of oral administration of probiotic at 9 log CFU/day as adjunctive treatment in reducing the severity of depression in female patients with major depressive disorder with treatment-as-usual compared to placebo and ACT via the use of questionnaires.
Pharmacist services such as medication review, counselling and treatment adherence clinics can improve clinical, health related quality of life and economic outcomes. To prove this hypothesis a step-wedge, cluster randomized controlled trial will be held in primary care centers of the public health system of Malaysia. Participants who have a high risk of cardiovascular risk factors currently seeking care in primary care will be recruited. Control group will receive usual care and the intervention arm will be seen by a pharmacist prior to their follow-up, with a comprehensive medication review, counselling and dietary advice consultations every month for three months. Participating pharmacist will be trained in cardiovascular prevention pharmacotherapy, interview skills, educational techniques, and develop personalized plan for every participant. The investigators plan to randomize up to 2100 participants who are currently receiving care in the primary care clinics in the district of Petaling by modifying the current workflow in primary care, whereby the investigators aim to get participants who are at high risk to undergo counselling as well as a medication review with proper pharmaceutical care delivered to them prior to seeking their medical doctor to receive care.
Intra-articular fractures of the distal radius are common in urban populations and result in significant morbidity in terms of time away from work. Volar plating of the distal radius is a commonly used mode of surgical fixation of this fracture. The joint haematoma resulting from the fracture has been hypothesized to contribute to the post-injury disability. As such, this study aims to examine if the evacuation of the haematoma during volar plating results in superior functional outcomes at three months post surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine in hospitalized adult participants infected with human metapneumovirus (hMPV - a virus closely related to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and has been identified as an important cause of acute respiratory infections, affecting all age groups) the dose-response relationship of multiple regimens of lumicitabine on antiviral activity based on nasal hMPV shedding using quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assay.
This is a multi-center prospective, single-arm, non-randomized, open label study to assess safety and performance of the Xeltis Pulmonary Valved Conduit in subjects requiring Right Ventricular Outflow Tract correction or reconstruction due to congenital heart malformations.
Study reported that providing Oil Palm Phenolics to Nile rats blocked diabetes progression in this spontaneous diabetes model. The present study aims to determine the beneficial effects of Oil Palm Phenolics in subjects with pre-diabetes.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous ex vivo cultured adult allogenic mesenchymal stem cells in patients with ischemic cerebral stroke. Patient will be given single intravenous dose of allogenic mesenchymal stem cells 2 million cells/Kg body weight or placebo within 10 days of stroke. Patients will be followed up till 12 months. Safety will be evaluated by type, number and proportion of patients with adverse events. Efficacy will be evaluated by clinical parameters and MRI.
