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 is a two phase study (randomised and non-randomised phase). The randomised phase will initially examine 4 blinded doses of GW640385 boosted with rtv (with continuation of current background therapy) in comparison to an ongoing, open-labeled rtv-boosted protease inhibitor (PI) regimen for 15 days. At the Day 15 visit, all subjects will optimize background therapy. Additionally, subjects receiving the lowest dose of GW640385 will be re-randomised to one of the higher doses and subjects in the control arm will receive a new rtv-boosted PI based on resistance testing at screening. Subjects will remain in the randomized phase on one of these 4 continuing treatment arms for at least 48 weeks. An interim analysis will occur during the randomised phase to select for a dose of GW640385 to evaluate further in Phase III studies. After dose selection subjects will move to the non-randomised phase of the study. In the non-randomised phase subjects who are receiving GW640385 will be assigned to final selected dose for assessment of long term safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of long-term therapy with rosuvastatin compared with a placebo, and to evaluate whether treatment with rosuvastatin might be effective in reducing the risk of major cardiovascular events.
The study was planned for up to 2 years (24 months). Planned full participation for both mother and infant was 24 months, planned full participation of mother and development of infant was 24 months, while planned full participation of mother and no infant participation was 6 months.
The purpose of this study is to compare the use of HepeX-B versus HBIg, two anti-viral drugs, in patients who have received liver transplants due to liver failure caused by Hepatitis B infection. Patients will be evaluated over a 6 month to 1.5 year period to evaluate whether or not the drugs prevent the Hepatitis B virus from infecting the new liver.
Objectives: - Primary: To evaluate the effect of rimonabant 20-mg once daily in comparison with placebo, on the quantitative progression of atherosclerosis as assessed by carotid artery intima-media thickness (CIMT) - Secondary: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the above rimonabant regimen in the study population of atherosclerosis patients.
The objective of this prospective multicenter randomized study is to establish the effectiveness of treatment of persistent atrial fibrillation by encircling the pulmonary veins with radiofrequency (RF) ablation and creating additional lines of block with the aid of the NAVISTAR® THERMOCOOL® catheter in conjunction with the CARTO™ EP Navigation System. Effectiveness will be determined by comparing the chronic success of ablation therapy versus antiarrhythmic drug therapy, defined as the absence of persistent tachyarrhythmias during the first 24 months after a run-in phase of 2 months.
This is a parallel-group, multi-center, long-term extension study from the GALLANT 6 study to monitor the safety and tolerability of oral tesaglitazar compared with pioglitazone in patients with type 2 diabetes for up to 104 weeks of treatment. The total duration, including treatment and follow-up, is 107 weeks.
We wish to see if the drug rosiglitazone, currently used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, could be used as a new treatment for angina when compared with placebo in overweight subjects who do not have overt diabetes. The drug will be given for 3 months and the subjects will be have their angina tested, by way of exercise testing, angina quality of life questionnaire and 24-hour ECG monitoring before and after using the drug.
The primary hypothesis for this application for a multicenter phase III randomized clinical trial (RCT) is that induced moderate hypothermia (HYPO) (32-33 °C) after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) in children and maintained for 48 hours will improve mortality at 3 months and 12 month functional outcome as assessed by the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS).
This is a randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trial to see whether giving a low dose of the vitamins folic acid and riboflavin is beneficial to women who have very low grade abnormalities of the cervical cells.
