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.
This study will investigate how ensovibep is distributed throughout the body, the safety and the tolerability of ensovibep in healthy volunteers
A non-blinded randomised controlled feasibility study of weighted blankets to help agitation and disturbed sleep after brain injury. This is a single centre study based in a community hospital in the UK. Outcomes centre on determining the feasibility and acceptability of the study taking place in an NHS setting.
Patients with a respiratory disease are at higher risk of poor outcomes due to worsening of symptoms caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and other respiratory infections. New therapies are needed for treating high risk patients at early stages of an infection. This study will assess the safety, tolerability and feasibility of using an inhaled nitric oxide generating solution, RESP301, as a self-administered treatment following flare-up of symptoms. RESP301 is a liquid solution which produces nitric oxide in the lungs when inhaled using a nebuliser. The components of RESP301 are already used in clinical practice and inhaled nitric oxide is used as a treatment for newborns and patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). In a laboratory setting, RESP301 has been shown to be effective against respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV-2. This study will first determine the maximum tolerated dose of RESP301 in up to 48 adult patients with COPD or bronchiectasis in the United Kingdom (UK) (Part 1a; Dose Finding Phase). Once the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) has been determined in Part 1a, a cohort of 8 patients will be recruited and RESP301 administered at the MTD but these patients will in addition receive a single dose of a short acting bronchodilator 10 minutes preceding administration of RESP301. After completion of Part 1, approximately 150 patients will be recruited into Part 2 of the trial (Expansion Phase). A minimum of 50 participants will receive a test dose of RESP301 during a screening visit. Response to the test dose will be monitored. Participants who tolerate the test dose will continue in the study and should contact the study team if they experience exacerbation symptoms in the next 52 weeks. Following a call with the site team to discuss symptoms, participants will receive RESP301 delivered to their home to self-administer for 7 days. The study duration for each participant will be at most 57 weeks, including the study visit and monthly calls. Participants who start the course of study treatment, will receive daily calls during the treatment period and will also be followed up after they complete the treatment.
The association of hyperglycaemia in pregnancy (gestational diabetes mellitus; GDM) with adverse maternal and fetal outcomes is clearly recognised. Traditionally the diagnosis is made at 28 weeks gestation at which stage children of affected women already have a two-fold rate of excessive weight gain (abdominal circumference > 90th percentile). This is attributed to fetal exposure to undiagnosed high blood glucose earlier in pregnancy. Indeed almost 25% of women with GDM develop the condition before 20 weeks gestation. Interventional studies in women diagnosed in the late second trimester have shown benefits in reducing fetal macrosomia. It is unknown whether screening in the first trimester would predict fetal macrosomia and allow more timely and effective intervention. To examine this question, we propose a prospective cohort study of 1,662 women at increased risk of GDM to determine if an elevated HbA1c (39-48mmool/l) in early pregnancy (<14 weeks) can identify babies at risk of excessive weight gain in later pregnancy, as determined by ultrasound measurement of abdominal circumference at 28 weeks gestation. The study will be largely integrated into routine clinical practice enabling a large number of women to participate. Study participants will all undergo formal screening (75g oral glucose tolerance test) for GDM at 28 weeks gestation. Secondary outcomes, namely the ability of early pregnancy HbA1c to predict later maternal GDM, and fetal and maternal complications of pregnancy will also be evaluated. The results of this study, if positive, are likely to impact upon patient care almost immediately following study completion. In addition, given the stability of the Northern Ireland population, the relatively unique data set will facilitate future work on predictive markers for cardiovascular disease, and prospective studies on the cardiovascular consequences of GDM on both mother and baby.
This study will enroll male and female subjects who are 18 years of age or older with Primary Myelofibrosis, post-polycythemia Vera Myelofibrosis, or post-essential Thrombocythemia Myelofibrosis with severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count <50,000/µL) including subjects with intermediate-2 or high-risk MF according to the Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System (DIPSS).
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a rare, life-threatening, genetic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system, significantly impairing the quality of life, with those affected having a median age of death at 40. The main objective of this study is to assess how safe and effective is the combination therapy of galicaftor/navocaftor/ABBV-119 or Galicaftor/Navocaftor/ABBV-576 in adult participants with CF who are homozygous or heterozygous for the F508del mutation in each arm. Galicaftor/Navocaftor/ABBV-119 combination therapy and Galicaftor/Navocaftor/ABBV-576 is being developed as an investigational drug for the treatment of CF. Study doctors place participants in 1 of the 4 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. Around 90 adult participants with a diagnosis of CF will be enrolled in the study around approximately 35 sites worldwide. Participants in arm 1 will receive oral capsules of galicaftor/navocaftor dual combination for 28 days followed by galicaftor/navocaftor/ABBV-119 triple combination for 28 days. Participants in arms 2 and 3 will receive the galicaftor/navocaftor/ABBV-119 triple combination or placebo for 28 days. Participants in arm 4 will receive galicaftor/navocaftor/ABBV-576 triple combination therapy for 28 days. For all study arms, ABBV-576, galicaftor, navocaftor, will be given once daily and ABBV-119 twice a day. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate whether a set of algorithms analysing acoustic and linguistic patterns of speech, can predict change in PACC5 between baseline and +12 month follow up across all four Arms, as measured by the coefficient of individual agreement (CIA) between the change in PACC5 and the corresponding regression model, trained on baseline speech data to predict it. Secondary objectives include (1) evaluating whether similar algorithms can predict change in PACC5 between baseline and +12 month follow up in the cognitively normal (CN) and MCI populations separately; (2) evaluating whether similar algorithms trained to regress against PACC5 scores at baseline, still regress significantly against PACC5 scores at +12 month follow-up, as measured by the coefficient of individual agreement (CIA) between the PACC5 composite at +12 months and the regression model, trained on baseline speech data to predict PACC5 scores at baseline; (3) evaluating whether similar algorithms can classify converters vs non-converters in the cognitively normal Arms (Arm 3 + 4), and fast vs slow decliners in the MCI Arms (Arm 1 + 2), as measured by the AUC, sensitivity, specificity and Cohen's kappa of the corresponding binary classifiers. Secondary objectives include the objectives above, but using time points of +24 months and +36 months; and finally to evaluate whether the model performance for the objectives and outcomes above improved if the model has access to speech data at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 month timepoints.
Parkinson's Disease (PD) has generally been thought of as a movement disorder however other health-related symptoms, known as non-motor symptoms, are also very common. Non-motor symptoms can be very broad and present in numerous conditions, making identifying the symptoms of early-stage Parkinson's disease very difficult. Non-motor symptoms, including fatigue, and problems with sleep and mood, can happen decades before motor symptoms and have a greater impact on quality of life and psychological wellbeing. Despite this treatment options for non-motor symptoms are limited and therefore the development and testing of new treatments is a main priority. Due to the limited treatments options available, self-management of symptoms through positive lifestyle changes is a warranted area of research. The perspectives amongst patients, caregivers, and HCP's regarding lifestyle behavior change and its impact on fatigue and related non-motor symptoms has yet to be investigated in detail. This study includes two stages: telephone interviews and online consensus workshops. Patients with PD whom have experience of fatigue, partners/caregivers and Healthcare professionals will be able to participate in interviews only, workshops only or both. The interviews will investigate patients, partners/caregivers and Healthcare Professionals views and priorities of lifestyle factors in the management of non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease as well as identifying factors that influence lifestyle changes amongst PD patients. Stage 2 will involve small consensus workshops to generate ideas and feedback related to the design and content of the soon-to be developed lifestyle program. Results from both stages of this study will be used to help develop and design a lifestyle management program for fatigue and associated non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's Disease.
