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 multicenter, multinational, longitudinal study will quantify endurance and respiratory function in subjects diagnosed with MPS IVA and will better characterize the spectrum of symptoms and biochemical abnormalities in MPS IVA disease over time.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of omalizumab for the treatment of Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis (ABPA) in patients with Cystic Fibrosis aged 12 years and older.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a systemic disease, it is not clear whether the gene expression profile exhibited by circulated peripheral blood cells and that expressed by the inflamed synovium mirror one another. Understanding this relationship would be useful not only in potentially having a relatively non-invasive means to predict response to therapy but it might be useful in better understanding differences in RA expression amongst patients with this disease, thus perhaps assisting in target identification through a better understanding of disease processes.
This study is being performed in order to learn more about a new drug (possible as treatment for people with Alzheimer's Disease and other conditions with cognitive dysfunction (memory and attention problems)) and how it is handled by the body by giving the drug to healthy volunteers with different genotypes.
BIOTRONIK Home Monitoring (HM) service enables the doctors to safely follow up (FU) their ICD and CRT-D patients in a remote fashion, with fewer in-clinic consultations. This may result in a more efficient FU and cost-savings for the health care payer. The EuroEco study: 1. Outlines a new HM-based FU model for the ICD and CRT-D patients that combines in-clinic consultations and regular check ups of the patient/ICD/CRT-D data received through the HM service. 2. Compares the direct costs for physicians and clinics for the HM-based FU of ICD and CRT-D patients versus the traditional FU. 3. Compares the indicators of patients' safety between the two FU models.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether albumin administration during cardiac surgery is effective in attenuating the development of inflammation following surgery.
This study was designed to generate data for the assessment of Meningococcal Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate vaccine (Menactra®) when given to adults aged 18 to 55 years. Primary Objective: To describe the antibody response to each serogroup prior to, and 4 to 6 weeks following, the administration of one dose of the investigational Meningococcal Polysaccharide Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate vaccine (Menactra®), as measured by serum bactericidal activity using baby rabbit complement (SBA BR) in participants in each of the two study groups. Secondary Objective: To collect reference sera for the development and refinement of laboratory assays for the measurement of antibody responses to serogroups Y and W 135.
The ARTEMIS-IPF study was conducted to determine if ambrisentan was effective in delaying disease progression and death in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), to evaluate its safety, and to evaluate its effect on development of pulmonary hypertension, quality of life, and dyspnea (shortness of breath) symptoms in this participant population. Participants were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive ambrisentan or placebo, respectively. Participation in the study was to be up to 4 years, depending on how long it would take to enroll participants and observe study events. After randomization, visits to the clinic took place every 3 months, and laboratory procedures were performed every month.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the mobilization characteristics, clinical use, safety and Ease of Care (EOC) of a fentanyl Iontophoretic Transdermal Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA) system (Ionsys) and morphine intravenous (IV) PCA for management of moderate (medium level of seriousness) to severe (very serious) acute (a quick and severe) pain in participants who have undergone elective major abdominal or orthopedic (pertaining to the bones) surgery.
This study will assess if Sitagliptin addition to metformin or glitazone is better than current sulphonylurea based treatments during Ramadan. The rationale is that Sitagliptin offers metabolic advantages primarily with the low incidence of hypoglycemia over current sulphonylurea based treatments.
