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 clinical trial attempts to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of an intervention combining intermittent fasting and the Mediterranean diet guidelines vs an comparative intervention combining intermittent fasting but using the UK dietary guidelines. Participants will be randomised to these intervention using a parallel design. Weight change and blood lipids will be assessed.
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of UCB0107 in study participants with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP).
This is a research study on Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for visual symptoms (MBCT-vision), to treat patients with debilitating symptoms of visual snow (VS) and is associated visual symptoms, severe light sensitivity (i.e. photophobia) and migrainous visual aura. Participants will receive an intervention of an 8-week MBCT course modified for visual symptoms, which will involve 8 weeks of once weekly group sessions and home practice between sessions.
This study will evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacodynamics of elexacaftor (ELX, VX-445) in triple combination (TC) with tezacaftor (TEZ) and ivacaftor (IVA) in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF).

UROGEN WELL D-ONE Principal research question: Can the UROGEN WELL D-ONE assay detect urinary tract infections and urethritis in clinical samples from patients attending Genitourinary Medicine outpatient clinics as accurately as standard laboratory microscopy and culture methodologies, while simultaneously identifying antimicrobial resistance? The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the rapid diagnostic assay UROGEN WELL D-ONE and determine if it can accurately detect infectious organisms causing UTI's and urethritis. Secondary research question: Is the antimicrobial resistance identified by the UROGEN WELL D-ONE assay accurate as compared to determination by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute international guidelines? The secondary research objective will be to assess the accuracy of the breakpoint antimicrobial susceptibility measurement by the assay. This is particularly important with the global increase in antibiotic resistance, when the acquisition of mobile resistance genes to the remaining effective therapeutics is rising internationally.
Acute leukaemia (AL) is an aggressive but potentially curable cancer that can affect women of childbearing age. When a pregnancy is complicated by a diagnosis of AL, clinicians face a complex dilemma: to balance risking the mother's survival through delaying treatment, against the potential harm to the foetus through exposure to cancer drugs. Reports suggest that, providing the first trimester is avoided, successful treatment of AL during pregnancy is possible, and considered safe. However, there is currently no standard approach to treatment of these women. This observational study aims to monitor and record the current treatment and outcomes of patients diagnosed with acute leukaemia during or prior to pregnancy. Patients will receive the treatment recommended by their doctor, the study will not alter the treatment pathway of participants. This study will establish a new research database of Leukaemia in Pregnancy, initially collecting data from cases since August 2009, and any new cases that are diagnosed during the current funding period. The initial planned analyses from this dataset will enable more robust, evidence-based recommendations to be made on how to monitor and manage these patients, and will add value to and improve the existing British Committee for Standards in Haematology (BCSH) guidelines, which were largely derived from expert opinion. This should enable healthcare professionals to have greater confidence in managing these patients, leading to a more standardised approach to providing high quality care. The study will benefit National Health Service (NHS) Trusts and patients across the United Kingdom (UK) through more informed clinical decision making with regards to the care they receive. It will also provide an important data resource which researchers can apply to use in further analyses, with plans to continue data collection if further funding is obtained.
The study of soccer skill performance has 3 objectives. Objective 1 is to compare effects of coffeeberry (300mg) and placebo ingestion on dribbling speed and precision and passing and shooting speed and accuracy compared to placebo. 30 subjects will be assessed before dosing, after a 1 hr resting absorption period, and after simulated soccer match play. Of these 30, 20 subjects will proceed to Objective 2 (45 minutes of intense simulated soccer match play) and Objective 3 (repeated sprint activity continued until volitional fatigue).
Sleep disturbances and cognitive dysfunction are consistently reported as extremely troublesome aspects of psychotic illnesses. While sleep disturbances are not included in definitions of psychosis they are associated with poor levels of daily function and impaired social recovery. Despite sleep problems being documented as co-occurring with psychosis, sleep remains unexamined as a potential therapeutic target pathway for social recovery. Specific areas of cognition are known to be associated with psychosis, sleep deficits and daily function, yet these have not been tested as possible mediators of the association between improved sleep and better daily function and social recovery. This study will examine the relationship between sleep quality, daily function and ultimately social recovery in early psychosis. A secondary aim will examine whether specified areas of cognition (i.e. attention, memory, executive function, social and emotional recognition) mediate the proposed association between sleep and social recovery. Participants will have experienced a first episode psychosis and be currently engaged with CAMEO early intervention, in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust (CPFT) or Early Intervention in Psychosis Services (EIS), in Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust (NSFT). Cameo CPFT and Early Intervention in Psychosis Services NSFT are services for people aged 14-65 years old who are experiencing symptoms of psychosis for the first time (http://www.cameo.nhs.uk and https://www.nsft.nhs.uk/adults/service/early-intervention-in-psychosis-services-norfolk-and-w aveney-103/). A publicly available, online intervention based on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) for insomnia (Sleepio) will be utilised to improve sleep. Participants will be randomised to receive the intervention + treatment as usual (TAU) through their early intervention team or TAU alone over an eight-week period. The entire study will last for seventeen weeks including an eight-week follow-up period.
Oraxol is a combination of an oral tablet, HM30181 methanesulfonate, and capsules that contain paclitaxel. HM30181 is a drug that helps the body absorb paclitaxel, a drug used to treat cancer. Initially this study is intended as an extension study of KX-ORAX-002 pharmacokinetic study for patients who wish to continue Oraxol treatment and who are eligible to participate. The purpose of this study is to check the safety and tolerability of Oraxol when it is administered on a weekly basis and to confirm the sustained oral bioavailability of paclitaxel following multiple dosing; also compare the relative bioavailability of paclitaxel tablets vs paclitaxel capsules (Group B only).
