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.
Study 701-201 is a study in patients with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD). The study will test respiratory muscle strength initially and again after 24 weeks in subjects treated or not treated with BMN 701 .
This study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary pharmacodynamics (proof of concept) of QBW251 in healthy subjects and cystic fibrosis patients following single and multiple doses. This first-in-human and proof of concept study will consist of 4 parts, with Parts 1 and 2 in healthy volunteers and Parts 3 and 4 in cystic fibrosis patients.
LY2944876 is an investigative drug for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Part A of the study will assess the safety and tolerability of single doses of LY2944876 in Japanese participants. Participation is expected to last up to about 7 weeks, not including screening. Part B of the study will investigate the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of LY2944876 in non Japanese participants. Participation is expected to last up to about 8 weeks, not including screening. All doses will be administered as injections into the fatty layer just beneath the skin. Screening is required within 28 days prior to the start of the study. All participants will attend a post study safety assessment approximately 6 weeks after their final dose.
The vaccine contains humanized recombinant antigen (EGF - Epithelial Growth Factor) and an adjuvant. The antibodies induced by vaccination will react with circulating EGF leading to removal of EGF from the circulation. As a result, binding to its target EGF-Receptor is prevented. Blocking of EGF-Receptor is preventing activation and stimulation of proliferation of tumour cell. A Phase 3 clinical trial on the EGF vaccine is ongoing in Cuba. The result from previous studies demonstrated positive correlation between extended survival and immune response against the vaccination in the late-stage NSCLC patients' age below 60 with improved quality of life. The purpose of this international Phase 3 trial is to determine whether the recombinant human EGF cancer vaccine is safe, immunogenic and effective in the treatment of stage IV NSCLC patients who are positive in the selective EGF biomarker and wild type EGF-Receptor compared to standard treatment and supportive care.
This is a first in human, non-randomized, open-label, dose escalation study to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity and pharmacodynamics of repeat doses of KHK2823.
Pulmonary rehabilitation is well established as a treatment in COPD. After exacerbations of COPD, rehabilitation is associated with reduced frequency of exacerbations and improved exercise capacity. No data are available in bronchiectasis. This study will randomly assign patients with bronchiectasis exacerbations to pulmonary rehabilitation or standard care. The hypothesis is that exercise capacity will be improved by pulmonary rehabilitation at 8 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of ixazomib when administered as multiple oral doses at escalating dose levels in participants with lupus nephritis.
Assessment of the safety, tolerability and early signs of efficacy of three times a day orally administered BAY63-2521 in adult delta F508 homozygous Cystic Fibrosis patients not on treatment with Orkambi
Patients due to undergo surgery for oesophageal and gastric malignancy are often malnourished. Up to 10% of patients preoperative weight may also be lost during the early postoperative period. Following discharge from hospital the mechanics of the surgery leads to a loss of gastric reservoir function, lack of appetite, altered intestinal motility and gastro-oesophageal reflux which usually results in reduced dietary intake and further weight loss. In patients who have undergone upper gastrointestinal resections there are no studies examining the benefit of nutritional supplementation following hospital discharge, however, studies in other groups of surgical patients have failed to show benefit. Despite patients who have undergone upper gastrointestinal surgery being 'at risk' nutritionally, there is no evidence demonstrating the value or not of nutritional supplementation following hospital discharge. Hypothesis: The postoperative under nutrition seen after upper gastrointestinal surgery will exacerbate the reduced quality of life and fatigue patients' already experience. The investigators hypothesise that improving patient's nutritional intake following hospital discharge will improve their quality of life and fatigue levels.
Digital myxoid cysts arise from degeneration in the connective tissue of the digit joint, usually the last joint of the finger or toe, often due to underlying joint arthritis. They may connect with the joint. Pressure from the cyst can result in deformity of the digit's nail and trauma to the cyst results in leakage of the fluid, representing a potential source of entry for infection. Cysts can be tender and interfere with the digit's function. A variety of treatments are available, from simple extrusion which is rarely successful, to more destructive cryotherapy, infra-red coagulation and formal excision under local anaesthetic. These latter three approaches can result in considerable scarring. Sclerosant injection of polidocanol in one small non-randomised trial has been reported to be a well tolerated efficacious treatment with minimal scarring and long-term resolution. Following a pilot study, the investigators aim to trial this treatment to assess efficacy in a larger population.
