CLINICAL RESEARCH CENTRE
HOSPITAL QUEEN ELIZABETH II
Clinical Research Centre (CRC) Queen Elizabeth Hospital II (QEH II) was
established in December 2011 as part of Ministry of Health (MOH) CRC Network. It is
headed by Dr.Liew Houng Bang with the aim to promote, support and conduct qual-
ity and ethical clinical research to improve patient outcome.
CRC was formed with the aim of enhancing clinical research activities on hospitals by creating
atmosphere as well as providing facilities to support research activities at Ministry of Health facility.CRC HQE II
undertakes clinical research (ISR & IIR), provides research-related administrative services and conduct training
courses annually.
Besides undertaking clinical research, CRC QEH II also provides research-related administra-
tive services and training such as research methodology, medical biostatistics and Good Clinical Practice (GCP)
workshop. CRC and Cardiology Department QEH II work closely in view of both sharing same Head of Depart-
ment, this also cultivate research culture among clinicians. CRC HQE II accepts staff of various background. The
team consists of medical officers, pharmacist, research nurse, research officers, CRM study coordinators and
administrative assistant.
The year 2017 is a remarkable year for the CRC HQE II as we are the organizer for 5th Sabah
Research Day that took place on 13-14 September. The theme for Sabah Research Day was “Strengthen Re-
search Capacity, Leave your Legacy” and we receive many research presentation submission from Tawau, San-
dakan and Keningau districts.
We even had guests
from Hospital Melaka and Insti-
tute Kanser Negara. In conjunc-
tion with the research day, we in-
vited the health minister YB Datuk
Seri Dr S Subramaniam to grace
this occasion by officiating the
opening of our CRC.

Table 1 and 2 highlight the important data of all ISR’s conducted in CRC QEH2. CRC and cardiology de-
partment staff worked closely to screen and recruit subjects for all the studies that we are committed to. For
most of the studies, we aimed to keep our first-patient-in (FPI) date less than 4 months after site initiation
visit. We are always motivated by our head of CRC department, to achieve at least 80% recruitment for all of
our studies.

In October 2017, we received our first ISR inspection from regulatory board National
Pharmaceutical Control Bureau (NPRA) were inspected on ODYSSEY study ( A Randomized, Double Blind,
Placebo –Controlled, Parallel-group study to Evaluate the Effect of Alirocumab on the Occurrence of Cardio-
vascular Events in patient who have recently Experienced an Acute Coronary Syndrome). The inspection
lasted for 5 days and these are the key findings:
1. Conduct research activity without MREC approval.
2. Initiation of study procedure/activity prior to completion of informed consent process.
3. Procedures were not performed as prescribed in the currently approved protocol.
4. Administrative non compliance issues such as data discrepancies between e Case Report Form (eCRF)
and source document.
There were a total of 16 major and minor deviations according to inspection report. The study team has gained
tremendous insight from the inspectors and learnt from our past mistakes in conducting clinical trial. This
inspection has also led us develop a comprehensive checklist for ISR internal audit

INVESTIGATOR-INITIATED RESEARCH (IIR)
Investigator Initiated Research (IIR) is KPI for all staff in CRC department. Since CRC & Cardiology
Department are under the leadership of Dr.Liew HB cardiology medical officers and pharmacists are encour-
aged to conduct researches and submit abstracts to relevant conferences. Besides medical officers and phar-
macists, CRC aims to bring staff nurses on board to conduct nursing-based clinical research.

10CRC TRAINING/ACTIVITIES
CRC organized a variety of activities for healthcare professionals who are interested in conducting
own research. We conducted workshops to cultivate the research passion among healthcare professionals and
provides trainings for researchers who lack research skills. On the other hand, CRC support healthcare profes-
sional to various national/regional conferences for poster/oral presentation to gain exposure and learn from the
experienced. Conferences also served as platform for researchers to socialize, communicate, exchange ideas
and learn from each other.

12CRC SUBMISSION
CRC provides NMRR submission advice to researchers during research consultation clinic. In order to expose
our young researchers with presentation experiences, CRC encourages poster and oral presentations in major
conferences in related field. We ended this fruitful year by having 6 publications from CRC HOD Dr. Liew HB (6) &
former CRC deputy Dr. Liau SY (2) in high impact peer reviewed journals. Not only that , this year 12 presentations
were made in regional/national conferences.
