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.
This study is open to adults with a lung disease called Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). People can join the study if they are 40 years or older. If they already take nintedanib or pirfenidone for their IPF, they can continue treatment throughout the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1015550 helps people with IPF. Participants are put into 3 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in 2 groups take different doses of BI 1015550 as tablets twice a day. Participants in the placebo group take placebo tablets twice a day. Placebo tablets look like BI 1015550 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for up to two and a half years. During the first year, they visit the study site 10 times. Afterwards, they visit the study site every 3 months. The doctors regularly test participants' lung function. The results of the lung function tests are compared between the groups. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This study will assess the safety, efficacy and immune response following the sequential treatment of GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK) ASO compound (GSK3228836) and CHB-TI (GSK3528869A) in participants 18 to 65 years stable on NA treatment for CHB. The aim is to quantify the efficacy of sequential therapy as well as to determine an added value of sequential therapy over GSK3228836 therapy in CHB patients treated with NAs. In addition, the study will assess the effect of different treatment durations of GSK3228836 (12 or 24 weeks) prior to initiating GSK3528869A treatment.
This is an open label, lead in phase Ib dose confirmation study in patients with advanced solid tumors, followed by a phase II single arm study as neoadjuvant therapy in stage I-III HER2 negative breast cancer. Primary Objectives - To determine the safety profile of combination of ADG106 with dose dense doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide, and with weekly paclitaxel. - To determine the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of ADG106 in combination with dose dense doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide, and with weekly paclitaxel. - To evaluate biological changes on immunohistochemistry in HER2 negative breast cancer after treatment with ADG106 alone and in combination with chemotherapy. Secondary Objectives - To determine the efficacy of combination of ADG106 with standard neoadjuvant combination chemotherapy in HER2 negative breast cancer: objective response rates. - To correlate tumor and plasma biomarkers with efficacy outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of oral belzutifan (MK-6482) plus intravenous (IV) pembrolizumab (MK-3475) compared to placebo plus pembrolizumab, in the adjuvant treatment of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC) post nephrectomy. The primary study hypothesis is that belzutifan plus pembrolizumab is superior to placebo plus pembrolizumab with respect to disease-free survival (DFS).
To design and create wearable head protection to be worn on a patient's head following a neurosurgical procedure (namely craniectomy and craniotomy
To pilot a culturally adapted version of ENABLE (6-month program) for Heart Failure (HF) patients and caregivers in the inpatient and outpatient setting in Singapore. The investigators aim to determine the feasibility of trial procedures and assess the acceptability and preliminary efficacy of ENABLE with a randomized wait-list controlled trial design.
The study uses the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation and Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework to assess the Carer Matters programme for dementia caregivers in Singapore. A parallel mixed-methods study design is applied to assess the programme's feasibility and effectiveness.
Objectives: The primary objective of the proposed project is to develop and evaluate a Community Dance Program (CDP) for community-dwelling older adults, which is aimed at promoting physical strength, balance, cognition, mental and psycho-social well-being of the older adults. A distinctive feature of our project is that a team of researchers across disciplines and community partners will collaborate to develop the program and bring benefits to the older adults living in the community.
Effective control of diabetes requires patients to change their daily behaviour. The investigators propose an intervention programme for behavioural change with two components, targeting motivation and implementation. The motivation component raises the salience of probable patient-specific detrimental future outcomes by 'fast-forwarding' awareness of these outcomes to the present. The implementation component helps patients to set goals and to act based on weekly tips. A factorial design will be used to establish the necessity and sufficiency of the two components on changing mind and guiding behaviour to improve blood glucose level. Individual-level measures of psychological, physical and medical conditions will be shown to drive the heterogenous responses to the two components. Intervention is expanded into two cycles with crossover design to demonstrate how the individual-level measures drive the wear-off, built-up and persistence of the two components. The results of this two-component programme will serve as a basis for systematic synthesis of component-level effectiveness in behavioural intervention research.
In the short term, the study will provide insight into the effectiveness of multi-component intervention for reducing Fear of falling (FoF) in community-dwelling older adults. Effective interventions will be incorporated into existing programs for frailty and falls prevention in primary care. Reducing FoF will break the cycle of physical activity restriction, functional decline and further falls in older adults. Long term potential benefits include improving the health status of older adults and thus reducing healthcare utilization. The primary aim is to compare the effectiveness of a multi-component intervention comprising exercise recommendations, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) components and motivational interviewing (MI) based telephone review against usual care for reducing Fear of Falling (FoF) in community- dwelling older adults. Secondary aims include to compare the effectiveness of the multi-component intervention against usual care for increasing physical activity and reducing falls in community- dwelling older adults. The hypothesis is that the multi-component intervention will be more effective as compared to usual care for reducing FoF and falls and increasing physical activity in community- dwelling older adults.
