About this study

Hypertension and diabetes are chronic diseases that require long-term management and disease control is often sub-optimal, leading to complications which place additional burden on patients and the healthcare system.

This study aims to address factors such as gender, ethnicity and specific genetics that are not routinely considered during drug dosing but account for considerable variations in drug responses by tailoring the treatment to individual patient using CURATE.AI. CURATE.AI is an artificial intelligence guided dosing decision tool and can be applicable across many different conditions, as it is disease agnostic. This platform had demonstrated initial success in cancer and transplant populations but has yet to be applied to chronic disease patients.

The aim of this study is demonstrate that artificial intelligence guided treatment in chronic disease of hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus will yield actionable medication dosing optimization.

The aim of this study is demonstrate that artificial intelligence guided treatment in chronic disease of hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus will yield actionable medication dosing optimization.

Study Objectives

  1. Artificial intelligence (CURATE.AI) pilot deployment using prospective data in patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
  2. Artificial intelligence (CURATE.AI) for behavioural assessment and compliance prediction to disease management programme in patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Methods and Analysis Design and setting

This prospective cohort feasibility study will evaluate the blood pressure (n=20) and glycaemic (n=20) control of patients using the CURATE.AI platform. Participants will be recruited for a period of 4 months from the day of baseline visit and followed up for up to 4 clinic visits.

Recruitment Participants will be recruited from the study site, Alexandra Hospital, Singapore during their routine clinic visits. The doctor will identify individuals who meet the inclusion criteria and the research team will share further details regarding the study including the inclusion/ exclusion criteria that is presented below.

Interested individuals who meet the eligibility criteria will be required to sign the Informed Consent From prior to any study activity and a baseline visit will be scheduled.

Inclusion criteria

  • Adult patients (≥ 21years) with T2DM or hypertension
  • Expected to be followed up in Alexandra Hospital for the next 4-months
  • Signed informed consent form

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients with cognitive impairment
  • Patients with active cancer undergoing chemotherapy
  • Patients on haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis (which can cause rapid fluctuation of BP and blood sugar, respectively)
  • Pregnant patients
  • Patients whose medications for T2DM and hypertension are changed simultaneously during the first clinic visit
  • Serious concomitant disorders that would compromise the safety of the patient or compromise the patient's ability to complete the study, at the discretion of the investigator.

Study procedures The CURATE.AI correlation requires three data-points to calculate the initial drug dose. Ongoing readings provide further data-points for dose modulation.

Once a patient with hypertension or T2DM is identified and consented, a BP or blood sugar will be recorded (1st data-point) and baseline assessment performed

Following any change of hypertension (or T2DM) medications, a 24-hour ambulatory BP (or continuous glucose monitoring) will be done during the 7-15 days after baseline visit (data-point 2 or data-point 3 if retrospective data is available). Data from these recordings will be used to titrate medications, if necessary, in the follow-up visits.

One month after baseline the patient will return to the clinic for follow-up (data-point 3 or data point 4 if retrospective data is available) and dose adjustment, if required.

Dosing decisions at this point and going forward will be made by CURATE.AI and verified by the clinician. If dose adjustment is required, then the patient will repeat the home monitoring (24-hour ambulatory BP or continuous glucose monitoring). If dose adjustment is not needed the patient will undertake no home monitoring. Either way each patient will return one month later for clinic follow-up (clinic visit 2). This monthly cycle is repeated until each patient has reached 4-months follow-up.

At the final clinic visit (4-months after baseline) the baseline assessments are repeated. At this point patients will also be approached to complete a patient experience survey.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CURATE.AICombination product

    CURATE.AI is one example of an artificial intelligence guided dosing decision tool. It is customized to each individual and can be applicable across many different conditions, as it is disease agnostic.

    This platform has already demonstrated initial success in cancer and transplant populations but yet to be applied to chronic disease patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus and Hypertension, run by Alexandra Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Amartya Mukhopadhyay (6772 2002, Amartya_Mukhopadhyay@nuhs.edu.sg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Medication dosing optimization (time frame: 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Jul 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
