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 purpose of the study is to examine the effects of switching from antiretroviral combinations that includes efavirenz (Sustiva®), lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra®) or atazanavir/ritonavir (Reyataz®/Norvir®) in individuals experiencing side effects from one of these agents, and replacing these with a new HIV medication called Darunavir also given with ritonavir (Norvir®). The study will primarily investigate the effect of change in medication on the subjects viral load (the levels of the HIV virus in the blood), on immunological parameters (CD4 count) and on other safety parameters (such as cholesterol) and also quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the P.F.C. Sigma RPF knee accommodates functional stability with a post-operative passive range of motion of greater than 125° of flexion and to demonstrate that the range of motion does not compromise the longevity of the implant.
In this multinational Phase III study the efficacy and safety of 10 µM AP 12009 is compared to standard chemotherapy (temozolomide or BCNU or CCNU) in adult patients with confirmed recurrent or refractory anaplastic astrocytoma (WHO grade III) or secondary glioblastoma (WHO grade IV).
This 4 arm study in patients with advanced Stage IIIb/IV non-small cell cancer (NSCLC) who failed at least one standard chemotherapy regimen will determine the proportion of patients with progression-free survival at 12 weeks following combination therapy with R1507 and Tarceva or placebo and Tarceva. Patients will be randomized to one of four treatment arms to receive R1507 (9mg/kg iv) or placebo weekly or R1507 (16mg/kg iv) or placebo every 3 weeks. Tarceva (150mg oral daily) will be administered in all treatment arms. Other disease-related endpoints including overall survival, objective response rate, time to response, time to progressive disease and duration of response will also be evaluated. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years, and the target sample size is <500 individuals.
Prospective data collection on survivorship of ReCap Total Hip Resurfacing
Retrieval study and histological examination of BiMetric Femoral Components with hydroxyapatite coatings.
The objective of the LARGO Study protocol is to collect peripheral blood samples, select associated lung biopsy pathology slides, and clinical data from lung transplant recipients to perform molecular analyses in association with the study endpoints. The primary objective is to use gene expression profiling of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to differentiate between the absence and presence of acute cellular rejection. The secondary objectives are to use other genomic and proteomic technologies to analyze RNA and protein in blood samples in relation to related clinical conditions. The overall goal is to apply novel molecular insights in the development of non-invasive molecular diagnostic tests for lung transplantation.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether carboplatin is more effective with or without decitabine in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying carboplatin and decitabine to see how well they work compared with carboplatin alone in treating patients with progressive, advanced ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ofatumumab added to chlorambucil in patients with untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an implantable device to treat migraine. There are a significant number of patients who have drug refractory migraine and alternative therapies are needed.
