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 goal of this Effidrain first-in-human medical device trial is to improve the outcomes of patients with pleural effusions and ascites. The main aims are: - The primary aim of this first-in-man device pivotal study (n=120) is to demonstrate that the body fluid drain regulator can perform the function of pleural or ascites drainage, accurately and precisely. - The secondary aims are related to explore the effects of Effidrain on health-related outcomes: 1. The investigators hypothesize that Effidrain can reduce the time that the subject requires a pleural or abdominal drain in-situ, compared to conventional care. 2. The investigators hypothesize that the time required for healthcare workers to perform post-procedure monitoring for subjects that require pleural or abdominal drainage using Effidrain, would be reduced compared to conventional care. The effect of technology on physician and nursing hours required for drain care, and cost-effectiveness of the intervention will be studied Participants will be randomized to control and intervention group. Control group will be receiving treatment using manual drainage system while intervention group will be using Effidrain machine. Participants and Nurses from both control and intervention group will be asked to fill participant/nurses questionnaire form respectively.
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a pre-dementia state marked by a higher risk of conversion to dementia. Presently, strategies to delay the progression of MCI to dementia, such as routine exercise and cognitive activities, are limited and only moderately efficacious. Cognitive-motor dual task training, enhanced in a virtual reality environment, is a novel intervention for individuals with MCI.
This study is researching an experimental drug called linvoseltamab, also called REGN5458. Linvoseltamab has previously been studied by itself (without other cancer drugs) in participants who had advanced multiple myeloma that returned and needed to be treated again after many other therapies had failed. These participants were no longer benefiting from standard medications and had no good treatment options. In that study, some participants who were treated with linvoseltamab had improvement of their myeloma (shrinkage of their tumors), including some participants who had complete responses (that is, the treatment got rid of all evidence of myeloma in their bodies). This study is focused on participants who have multiple myeloma that has returned or needs to be treated again after one to four prior treatments and have standard cancer treatment options available to them. The aim of this study is to see how safe and effective linvoseltamab is compared to a combination of three cancer drugs: elotuzumab, pomalidomide and dexamethasone, (called EPd) in participants who have returned after having received prior treatment that included lenalidomide, a proteosome inhibitor, and (for participants in some countries) a cluster of differentiation 38 (CD38) antibody. Half of the participants in this study will get linvoseltamab, and the other half will get EPd. This study is looking at several other research questions, including: - How long participants benefit from receiving linvoseltamab compared with EPd - How many participants treated with linvoseltamab or EPd have improvement of their multiple myeloma and by how much - What side effects happen from taking linvoseltamab compared to EPd - How long participants live while receiving treatment or after treatment with linvoseltamab compared to EPd - If there is any improvement in pain after treatment with linvoseltamab compared to EPd
This is a single arm screening study. All eligible participants will be subjected to low dose CT (LDCT) screening and biomarker testing. The primary aim of the study is to determine the feasibility of conducting LDCT screening in at-risk populations for lung cancer in Singapore: - For the smoker population, LDCT screening for lung cancer will be implemented in accordance to Academy of Medicine, Singapore screening test guidelines with the aim of investigating the feasibility of instituting lung cancer screening clinical service in Singapore. - For the non-smoker population, LDCT screening for lung cancer will be introduced to systematically collect baseline data to better understand and provide evidence for lung adenocarcinoma in never-smoker phenotype that is unique to East Asia/Singapore. This will help address unmet needs in local population research as reported by Academy of Medicine, Singapore, to validate risk factors and inform future screening guidelines for the at-risk population. Screening results will be reported based on Lung CT Screening Reporting & Data System (Lung-RADS).
This proposal is a phase I, open-label study of a 4-Dose Regimen of Escalating Doses of 177Lu-LNC1004 Injection in patients with recurrent or metastatic, fibroblast activation protein-positive solid tumors. In the clinical development, we aim to demonstrate the following: - 177Lu-LNC1004 Injection is safe and tolerable at therapeutic dose. - Determination of dose(s) to be used in the expansion phase. The treatment regimen will consist of a single dose intravenous administration of 177Lu-LNC1004 Injection per 6-week cycle, for a total of 2 cycles. The dose per cycle will be fixed for each patient and will be escalated in 4 different dose levels
DRUID is a treatment decision support tool combining predictive models and public databases related to multi-gene markers, drug response screens, gene essentiality and clinical status of drugs to provide drug recommendations personalized based on an input genomic profile. We hypothesize that DRUID analysis of patients' somatic mutational profile from NGS diagnostic platform can be used as a treatment decision support tool in patients with refractory cancer without targetable mutations.
This study aims to compare the efficacy of vericiguat versus placebo on change in n-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) from baseline to Week 16. The primary hypothesis is Vericiguat is superior to placebo in reducing NT-proBNP at Week 16.
Geroscience is an emerging interdisciplinary field of study in gerontological sciences. With emphasis on understanding the mechanistic drivers of aging, it seeks translational approaches that could eventually be applied to improve human healthspan and delay age-associated chronic diseases. Contrary to popular opinion that aging is irreversible, advances in geroscience research have demonstrated that aging is modifiable and inhibiting or activating specific molecular pathways can improve healthspan and extend lifespan in model organisms. Advocates of geroscience take the view that age-related chronic diseases are best treated by slowing the aging process, rather than using the prevailing disease-centric approach of addressing each disease alone. Thus, the concept is that biological aging, rather than chronological aging, is amenable to intervention. In this regard, geroscientists are at the forefront of longevity medicine in rigorously testing novel supplements, drugs and other prophylactics that can enhance healthspan. Some of these interventions involve repurposing existing drugs such as rapamycin, a well-known immunosuppressant, at different dosing regimens to specifically target biological hallmarks of aging. This study will investigate the effects of alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG), an endogenous metabolite, on biomarkers of aging in middle-aged residents of Singapore.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether milvexian compared to placebo reduce the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke.
This study will assess the safety and tolerability of EBC-129 as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumours
