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.
The investigators are undertaking the first European Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT) for epilepsy surgery in children with FCD type II, to prospectively evaluate the role of the KD prior to surgery in improving seizure outcome. The investigators will evaluate the role of KD as a disease-modifying treatment to achieve seizure control and improve neurodevelopment and quality of life. Children age 3 - 15 years with pharmacoresistant epilepsy believed to be the result of focal cortical dysplasia type II, considered to be surgically treatable, will be randomised to either receive 6m treatment presurgery with a ketogenic diet, or to proceed direct to surgery (no pretreatment). Primary outcome will be the time to achieve a period of 6 months of seizure freedom from the date of randomisation. Tissue resected at surgery will also be evaluated with regard to the degree of any methylation of DNA.
To determine the feasibility of delivering different community nutritional interventions to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients at moderate or severe risk of malnutrition following a hospitalisation for an acute exacerbation of COPD.
This study will examine the impact of a soluble fibre (polydextrose) incorporated into a high fibre tomato soup on food intake (amount and choice), appetite ratings and biomarkers of satiation and satiety over 4-weeks. Specifically, the impact on the development of satiation within the fixed-load tomato soup containing the fibre, the development of satiety after the fixed-load meal containing fibre and intake at subsequent ad libitum meals will be examined as well as the insulin response and carbohydrate fermentation before and after 4-week dosing of the preload soup.
The objective of this study was to assess efficacy and safety of radium-223 dichloride in subjects with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2 negative) hormone receptor positive breast cancer with bone metastases treated with hormonal treatment background therapy
The objective of this study is to apply Whole-body DW imaging alongside the routine management of patients requiring systemic therapy for metastatic breast cancer to compare the time to progression of individual liver metastases within and between patients following stable disease or partial response to palliative systemic therapy for breast cancer.
Open-labelled, randomised controlled trial. Patients will be assessed pre-operatively, at 24 and 48 hours for the primary outcome and secondary outcomes (except for Oxford Knee Score which will be assessed pre-operatively and at 6 months post-operatively by the ortho-paedic team). Primary Objective: To demonstrate whether adductor canal nerve infusions result in superior patient mobilisation within the first 48 hours following total knee replacement compared to femoral nerve catheter infusions. Secondary Objective: To identify whether adductor canal nerve infusions result in superior analgesia within the first 48 hours following total knee replacement compared to femoral nerve catheter infusions.
This study is a Phase III, double-masked, multicenter, randomized, sham injection-controlled study evaluating the efficacy and safety of lampalizumab administered by intravitreal injections in participants with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of lanabecestat compared with placebo administered for 104 weeks in the treatment of early Alzheimer´s disease. The study will test the hypothesis that lanabecestat is a disease-modifying treatment for participants with early Alzheimer´s disease, defined as the continuum of participants with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to Alzheimer´s disease and participants diagnosed with mild dementia of the Alzheimer´s type, as measured by change from baseline on the 13-item Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog13) score at week 104 in each of the 2 lanabecestat treatment groups compared with placebo.
The purpose of this study is to provide subjects who have completed participation in a Phase 2 or Phase 3 trial of LMTM continued access to therapy and to evaluate the long-term safety of LMTM.
