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 this study is to determine the optimal dose of botulinum toxin type A injected in the detrusor muscle to improve urinary symptoms, urodynamic parameters and quality of life of continent women suffering from idiopathic overactive bladder.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of rimonabant treatment on the histological features of NASH in patients with Type 2 diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of rimonabant treatment on the histological features of NASH.
This 2 arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of subcutaneous Mircera, versus no ESA therapy, in chronic kidney disease patients with anemia after kidney transplant, not currently treated with ESA. Patients will be randomized to receive a)subcutaneous Mircera at a recommended starting dose of 0.6 micrograms/kg every 2 weeks, switching to monthly treatment at week 16 or b)supportive treatment (eg. iron supplementation) for management of low hemoglobin concentrations. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
· What we know: Hydrosalpinx and IVF About 40% of patients undergoing IVF have tubal disease and in 25%-30% of tubal disease patients there is fluid collection within the tube; hydrosalpinx. The amount of fluid in the hydrosalpinx is known to increase with ovarian stimulation (as in IVF) and often empties into the uterine cavity. Fluid from hydrosalpinges has been found to be detrimental to the growth and development of mouse embryos in vitro, and associated with reduced levels of endometrial integrins in vivo. This could be the explanation of the reduced pregnancy rates after IVF in patients with tubal disease and hydrosalpinx compared with those with tubal disease but no hydrosalpinx. This effect was evidence in both fresh and frozen embryo transfer cycles. Also there was a significant increase in miscarriage in association with hydrosalpinx. The study aims to answer the question: does ultrasound-guided aspiration of ultrasound diagnosed hydrosalpinx at the time of egg collection improve the pregnancy rate in IVF?
RATIONALE: The use of intrauterine levonorgestrel may prevent atypical endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer in women with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer or Lynch syndrome. It is not yet known whether intrauterine levonorgestrel and observation are more effective than observation alone in preventing atypical endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer in women with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer or Lynch syndrome. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying intrauterine levonorgestrel and observation to see how well they work compared with observation alone in preventing atypical endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer in women with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer or Lynch syndrome.
The IMPACT Study will investigate the potential clinical benefit of the combined use of BIOTRONIK Home Monitoring (HM) technology and a predefined anticoagulation plan compared to conventional device evaluation and physician-directed anticoagulation in patients with implanted dual-chamber defibrillators or cardiac resynchronization therapy devices.
The purpose of this study is to assess a dose titration scheme, of a new drug (BAY58-2667) given intravenously, to evaluate if this is safe and can help to improve the well-being, symptoms (e.g. breathing) and outcome of decompensated heart failure. Patients living with chronic heart failure have a risk of increased number of hospitalisations because of worsening of their condition (decompensated heart failure). The current treatment of acute heart failure consists of oxygen and medical treatment with vasodilators and positive inotropic agents (drugs, which should strengthen the pump function of the heart) which have their limitations. Therefore there is a need for new drugs in treatment of acute heat failure.
This study will provide continued treatment and assess the long term safety, efficacy and tolerability of oral AEB071 plus tacrolimus vs. mycophenolic acid plus tacrolimus after kidney transplantation.
To establish the effects of genotropin replacement on cognitive function in patients with severe growth hormone deficiency after traumatic brain injury.
