There are about 25435 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in United Kingdom. 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.
Deep venous thrombosis(DVT) is a blood clot, usually affecting the legs, causing pain, swelling, and redness. The clot damages the veins, which can result in chronic pain, swelling and ulceration. This is called the post-thrombotic syndrome, which impacts heavily on patients' life and work. If the clot dislodges and travels to the lungs, it becomes a pulmonary embolus (PE), which can be life threatening. Together, DVT and PE affect 500,000 people in Europe every year, representing the most common cause of hospital acquired death. They are expensive diseases due to the cost of treatment and the days lost from people being unable to work. DVT is diagnosed by clinical examination, risk scoring and a blood test called D dimer, a product of the clot. If negative, it is unlikely that DVT is present. However, many conditions can raise D-dimer levels, making it less useful when positive. Ultrasound can confirm the presence of clot but often this is not seen. The clot can take time to form and patients may not experience symptoms immediately. This is a problem for treatment, as new, clot-busting medication works best in the first 2 weeks after a DVT and it is difficult to tell when the clot formed. Metabonomics is highly sensitive technology that detects very small chemicals; it is being used successfully in cancer and is a tool that can help better understand DVT and generate new tests to help patients. Previous departmental work has shown that a chemical difference exists in patients with DVT. The aim of this study is to not only confirm the presence of these chemicals in a different group of DVT patients, but also to calculate chemical concentrations. This will improve the investigator's understanding of how DVT develops and provide a way to develop a test that is better than D-dimer.
The overall aim of this single-centre, prospective randomised controlled trial is to compare clinical, functional, and radiological outcomes in CO THA versus Mako THA. Patients undergoing Mako THA will form the investigation group and those undergoing CO THA will form the control group.
This is an open-label, multinational, parallel 2-arm, randomized Phase 3 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of futibatinib versus gemcitabine-cisplatin chemotherapy as first-line treatment of patients with advanced, metastatic, or recurrent unresectable iCCA harboring FGFR2 gene rearrangements
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of a single intravenous infusion of SPK-3006 in adults with clinically moderate, late-onset Pompe disease receiving enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). Participants will be treated in sequential, dose-level cohorts.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals' HZ/su vaccine when given on a two-dose schedule to adults aged 50 years and above who have had a previous episode of shingles.
The purpose of this study is to collect clinical evidence on valve performance and procedural outcomes associated with an "optimized" TAVR care pathway and post-TAVR conduction disturbance pathway while using the Evolut™ PRO and Evolut™ PRO+ devices. The purpose of the addendum is to collect post-market clinical evidence on valve performance and procedural outcomes associated with the Evolut FX Device.
The reason for this study is to see if the study drug baricitinib given orally is safe and effective in participants with active juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA)-associated uveitis or chronic anterior antinuclear antibody-positive uveitis from 2 years to less than 18 years old.
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 1b/2 study to determine the safety and tolerability of IMGN632 and assess the antileukemia activity of IMGN632 when administered in combination with azacitidine and/or venetoclax in participants with relapsed and frontline CD123-positive AML.
The main aim of this study is learn more about long-term TAK-503 treatment in children and teenagers with ADHD for whom earlier stimulant treatment did not work. The study has two parts (A and B). In Part A, participants will take tablets of TAK-503, atomoxetine or placebo and in Part B TAK-503 tablets.
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) affects around 10% of the adult population and is associated with an increased risk of heart attack, stroke and end stage kidney disease (ESKD). This study aims to better predict who is most likely to progress to ESKD using previously identified risk factors and novel biomarkers in blood and urine samples, along with kidney biopsy tissue. Resources can then be directed to those most at risk of disease progression and other associated conditions such as heart attack and stroke, while those at lower risk can be offered less frequent monitoring.
