Lung cancer screening is currently not recommended in non-smokers due to paucity of evidence. Emerging evidence suggests that first-degree family history is a strong risk factor for lung cancer in Asian non-smokers. In Asia, lack of resource is a major challenge in successful implementation of lung cancer screening. Artificial intelligence …
The goal of this study is to develop new techniques for minimal residual disease(MRD) monitoring and to confirm the efficacy and safety of MRD-guided postoperative management for early stage non-small cell lung cancer. The main questions this study aims to answer are: How to develop multi-omics-based high-sensitivity detection methods to …
The core purpose of this study is to investigate whether the extracellular volume (ECV) fraction measured in delay phase by dual energy computed tomography (DECT) can distinguish precancerous lesions from early-stage lung adenocarcinomas, which could assist clinical decision making for surgery operation indication and strategy.
Low-dose CT (LDCT) screening for lung cancer (LCS) has been shown to reduce lung cancer specific mortality in multiple randomised controlled trials. However, although LDCT screening has been demonstrated to reduce cancer- specific mortality, there remain outstanding questions regarding how screening can be implemented. In particular, indeterminate nodules are common, …
The study investigates effectiveness of different smoking cessation methods and low-dose CT based lung cancer screening
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 …
The aim of this study is to examine if a shorter palliative radiotherapy fractionation scheme of 20 Gy / 4 F can reduce the early oesophageal toxicity compared to 30 Gy / 10 F in patients with lung cancer in performance status (PS) 0-2. Secondary aims are to examine the …
This study focuses on developing an explainable machine learning model based on cardiopulmonary interaction characteristics to achieve early prediction of acute lung injury (ALI) in patients undergoing major liver surgery. The research will establish a digital early-warning system for ALI to provide support for clinical diagnosis and treatment decisions, thereby …
RECOVERY is a randomised trial of treatments to prevent death in patients hospitalised with pneumonia. The treatments being investigated are: COVID-19: Lopinavir-Ritonavir, Hydroxychloroquine, Corticosteroids, Azithromycin, Colchicine, IV Immunoglobulin (children only), Convalescent plasma, Casirivimab+Imdevimab, Tocilizumab, Aspirin, Baricitinib, Empagliflozin, Sotrovimab, Molnupiravir, Paxlovid or Anakinra (children only) Influenza: Baloxavir marboxil, Oseltamivir, Corticosteroids (dexamethasone) …
The DETECT randomized controlled trial addresses the question of whether surveillance ultrasound in critically ill patients by facilitating DVT detection reduces the incidence of PE and lowers all-cause 90-day mortality. The primary outcome is 90-day all-cause mortality.
