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 evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of VX-121/tezacaftor/deutivacaftor (VX-121/TEZ/D-IVA) in participants with cystic fibrosis.
Chemotherapy uses anti-cancer drugs to destroy cancer cells and is a common treatment for many cancers. Taxanes are the most widely used chemotherapy drugs given to breast cancer patients. However, taxanes also have toxic side effects. One of the most severe side effects is damage to nerves in the peripheral nervous systemÍž a neurological disorder known as peripheral neuropathy. Common symptoms of peripheral neuropathy are pain, numbness, and tingling in the hands and feet, which can lead to chemotherapy being prematurely discontinued. Unfortunately, treatment options to manage peripheral neuropathy are limited. Exercise has recently been proposed to reduce symptoms, but consistently exercising during chemotherapy is challenging for patients because of treatment-related side effects and fatigue. A more feasible approach may be to exercise on the day before each infusion. This research includes two linked studies that aim to evaluate whether measuring peripheral nerve function at various timepoints throughout chemotherapy and performing aerobic exercise 24 hours before each infusion is feasible and acceptable to patients. In study 1, the investigators will recruit early stage breast cancer patients, who are scheduled to receive taxanes, from medical oncology outpatient clinics. The investigators will ask consenting participants to make 4 or 5 separate visits to the Hospital at various timepoints throughout chemotherapy, depending on the type of chemotherapy they are prescribed. Each study visit will involve completing some questionnaires as well as tests of peripheral nerve function and functional ability. In phase 2, a new cohort of breast cancer patients undergoing the same chemotherapy regimens will be randomly allocated to an exercise group or a control group. The exercise group will be invited to perform a supervised bout of aerobic exercise (30 min of moderate-intensity on a cycle ergometer) one day before they receive chemotherapy. The findings will lay the foundations for future large-scale research.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of a single intramuscular (IM) dose of nirsevimab, compared to no intervention, for the prevention of hospitalizations due to lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) caused by confirmed RSV infection (henceforth referred to as RSV LRTI hospitalizations) in all infants under 12 months of age who are not eligible to receive palivizumab. The visit frequency will be 1 in-person dosing/randomization visit, with monthly safety follow-up electronic contacts through the first 6 months post dosing/randomization for all participants. The study will also include a 12-month (Day 366) follow-up telephone call. The D366 follow-up telephone call will be the final follow-up telephone call for France, Germany and UK non-reconsented participants. The study will include an 18-month (D546) and a 24-month (D731, final telephone call) follow-up telephone call for UK reconsented participants.
This is study with SPI-62 to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacological effect of SPI-62 in subjects with hypercortisolism related to a benign adrenal tumor. Each subject will receive 2mg of SPI-62 daily.
This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of tirzepatide in participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D) compared to other existing treatment options when treatment is initiated early.
This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Obicetrapib in Participants with a History of Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HeFH).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, tolerability and efficacy of VX-121/tezacaftor/deutivacaftor (VX-121/TEZ/D-IVA) in CF participants with at least 1 triple combination responsive (TCR) mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene.
This is a parallel, Phase 2, global, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging, four-arms study for treatment. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of add-on therapy with amlitelimab in adult participants with moderate-to-severe asthma. Study details include: - The study duration (per participant) will be up to approximately 76 weeks for participants not going into LTS study and will be up to approximately 64 weeks for participants going into LTS study. - The randomized treatment duration will be up to approximately 60 weeks. - The scheduled number of visits will be 13.
Type 2 myocardial infarction (MI) is common and associated with poor clinical outcomes, with as many as one in ten experiencing recurrent MI within one year, and only one in three alive at five years. Recent prospective data demonstrates two-thirds of patients with type 2 MI have underlying coronary artery disease and one-third have left ventricular systolic impairment. Importantly, this is previously unrecognised in over half of all patients, suggesting there may be opportunities to identify and treat these underlying conditions to modify clinical outcomes. The investigators will undertake a pilot randomised controlled trial in which patients will be randomised to standard care or a complex intervention involving detailed cardiology assessment for the likelihood of coronary disease or left ventricular impairment, followed by targeted investigation and treatment where underlying disease is identified. This study will inform the design and delivery of a prospective multi-centre randomised controlled trial powered for clinical outcomes.
The overarching objective of this research is to detect poor growth and delayed development early in childhood by developing an automated growth-screening algorithm. The screening algorithm will be created using cohort data and piloted for feasibility and acceptability in Tower Hamlets. The ultimate goals are to detect linear growth failure and delayed development early to identify two groups of children: first, children with serious underlying medical disorders, in whom earlier diagnosis and management would improve clinical outcomes; and second, children whose poor growth and/or delayed development is a manifestation of socioeconomic disadvantage, in whom targeted pre-school interventions may improve long term health and education outcomes.
