There are about 10560 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Taiwan. 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.
Sialidosis type 1 is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by bialleic NEU1 gene mutations. Patients with sialidosis type I present variable neurological and eye dysfunction and the progression rate is variable. The goal of this protocol is to assess the neurological and ophthalmological status of these patients and characterize the clinical and laboratory abnormalities in order to determine the natural history of the disease. Patients will be followed every 6 month with comprehensive clinical, neurological and ophthalmological examinations combined with neuropsychological, blood, radiological and electrophysiological tests.
Introduction: This study was to compare the differences in the incidence, grade, and time of surgery-related pressure injuries between the two interventions; and describe the locations of surgery-related pressure injuries between the two interventions. Methods: This study adopted a true experimental research design with a convenience sampling method from the operating rooms of a teaching hospital in a northern region. The experimental group was randomly assigned by block to receive intervention A (full bed silicone mattress plus other measures), and the control group received intervention B (full bed silicone mattress plus usual care). Measurements include basic personal attributes, risk factors, grade, time, and location of occurrence related to surgery-related pressure injuries.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the auxiliary benefits of three-dimensional printed activating assistive devices for soft-mist inhaler on patients' utilization habit.
This study aims to explore the use of peanut balls during the second stage of labor. It compares three different positions: traditional lithotomy position, lateral position, and lateral position with peanut ball in terms of women's perceived pushing effort experiences, fatigue, and birth outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to compare sacituzumab tirumotecan as a single agent, and in combination with pembrolizumab, versus Treatment of Physician's Choice (TPC) in participants with hormone receptor positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 negative (HR+/HER2-) unresectable locally advanced, or metastatic, breast cancer. The primary hypotheses are that sacituzumab tirumotecan as a single agent and sacituzumab tirumotecan plus pembrolizumab are superior to TPC with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) by blinded independent central review (BICR) in all participants.
This study will assess if adding sacituzumab tirumotecan with pembrolizumab after surgery is effective in treating NSCLC for participants not achieving pathological complete response. The primary hypothesis of this study is sacituzumab tirumotecan plus pembrolizumab is superior to pembrolizumab monotherapy with respect to disease free survival (DFS) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR).
Based on early bench-testing data and subsequent clinical case studies in the U.S., "Intrinseque Health" non-rebreathing mask (IHNRM) has delivered virtual elimination of air entrainment and preferential delivery of all available oxygen first into the alveolar spaces by sequential opening of valves in its controller manifold, even at oxygen flow as low as 10 LPM, patient can attain high alveolar oxygen concentration of 75% or more-far higher than attainable with face mask or nasal cannula. Numerous intubated patients emerging from the operating room require intensive critical care specialist supervision in order to transition to the regular care. This would enable higher patient turnover and more efficient utilization of hospital resources, if patient can be transited to the regular care earlier by using a device that supports high oxygenation. This will enable a faster, safe and smooth extubation in critical care, and earlier discharge from intensive care ward. This study is anticipated to take only around 2.5 hour per patient to complete. Patients meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria of this study are placed on IHNRM and monitored until steady state of SpO2 of 95% or higher on 7-10 LPM has been maintained for at least 2 hours, when they can be discharged from the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) to the regular care ward. The study is the parallel design study. 60 patients will be randomly selected to use the IHNRM, and 30 subjects will be placed on HFNC. Blood oxygen concentration (SpO2), respiratory rate, end tidal CO2 concentration (EtCO2), and vital sign will be recorded in the study. The endpoint of the study is to compare the effect after using between "IHNRM" and HFNC.
Facial lines that develop from repeated facial expression, such as glabellar lines (GL), are typically treated by selectively weakening specific muscles with small quantities of botulinum toxin. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AGN-151586 compared to placebo in adult participants. AGN-151586 is an investigational product being developed for the treatment of GL. In the first period, participants are randomly assigned to receive AGN-151586 or placebo. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 3 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. In the second period, all participants who meet retreatment criteria will receive open-label AGN-151586. Around 160 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 14 sites in China, Taiwan, and Japan. Participants will receive either AGN-151586 or Placebo administered as 5 intramuscular injections to the glabellar complex on Day 1. Eligible participants may then receive AGN-151586 injections on Day 43 and will be followed for up to 6 weeks. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care due to multiple study visits. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
This is a Phase III, international, multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, parallel-group, double-dummy, active-controlled, event-driven study in patients with chronic HF and impaired kidney function who had a recent HF event. The aim is to evaluate the effect of balcinrenone/dapagliflozin vs dapagliflozin, given once daily on top of other classes of SoC, on CV death and HF events.
The primary objective of the study is to compare V940 plus pembrolizumab to placebo plus pembrolizumab with respect to disease-free survival (DFS) as assessed by the investigator. The primary hypothesis is that V940 plus pembrolizumab is superior to placebo plus pembrolizumab with respect to DFS.
