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.
TENDER is a multicenter, single-device, retrospective and prospective, observational study to assess safety and efficacy of the Tendyne Mitral Valve System in a real-world population.
The greatest challenge in our ageing society are cardiovascular diseases such as stroke, heart attack, peripheral artery disease of the legs with non-healing wounds (ulcers), or diabetes. How healthy ageing affects the smallest blood vessels (microcirculation) and is not well understood. One reason for this is that no generally available medical instrument has the resolution to study the microcirculation. The recently developed optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), currently mainly used by eye doctors, is able to visualise the microcirculation. We have developed an automated software (OCTAVA) to determine metrics to characterise the microcirculation on the layers of density, diameter and tortuosity. In the current study we aim at providing reference values of these metrics in hands and feet of healthy people according to age together with macrovascular function in arms and legs.
The focus of our work is openness, learning and person-centred involvement following patient safety incidents in health care. We will explore patients, carers and relatives' perspectives on what is important to them, what facilitates and impedes their involvement in patient safety reviews and what matters to them. We are interested in exploring how patient, carer and relative involvement can assist reconciliation, organisational and national learning. Information gained will be used to support the development of national guidance around involving people in a compassionate and caring way and how their experience could help organisational and national learning when things go wrong in health care.
Back pain affects one-third of the UK population every year with a huge impact on the health service and economy. The aim of this study is to test the validity of a computer-vision (CV) technology that uses cameras on phones/tablets/webcams to assess a person's movement and function with the ultimate goal to use the CV system to screen for back pain conditions. Participants with and without back pain will be included in the study and they will be asked to perform standard functional movements that would be used for a physiotherapy assessment for a back condition. The participants will also perform these movements in front of a camera for video recordings to be analysed by the CV system. The measurements by the CV system will be compared to the measurements by the physiotherapist. Additionally, participants will perform and record videos of the same set of movements at home to test the feasibility of the CV system in a home environment.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of co-formulated pembrolizumab/quavonlimab versus other treatments in participants with MSI-H or dMMR Metastatic Stage IV Colorectal Cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of Afimetoran in participants with active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). The extension period will provide additional long-term safety and efficacy data and enable those participants initially randomized to placebo to receive treatment with Afimetoran.
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common leukemia (cancer of blood cells). The purpose of this study is to assess retreatment with venetoclax-obinutuzumab (VenG) in participants previously treated with fixed duration first-line (IL) therapy of venetoclax in combination with an anti-CD20 antibody +/- X (where X is any additional drug). Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed. Venetoclax is an approved drug for the treatment of CLL. Study doctors put the participants in 1 of 2 groups, called cohorts, based on when symptoms of CLL came back after previous treatment in first-line. Approximately 75 adult participants with CLL who have been treated with venetoclax in combination with an anti-CD20 antibody +/- X will be enrolled in the study in approximately 60 sites worldwide. Participants will receive intravenous (IV) obinutuzumab + oral venetoclax (VenG) in 28-day cycles for a total of 6 cycles per cohort, followed by 6 to 18 cycles of venetoclax alone, for a total treatment of 12 to 24 cycles, depending on the cohort. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
The MARIA® breast imaging system is a CE-marked radiofrequency (RF) medical imaging device. The system employs an electromagnetic imaging technique that exploits the dielectric contrast between normal and cancerous tissues. The use of artificial intelligence will provide additional, novel functionality to the MARIA® system but requires participant data in order to develop and validate the machine learning algorithms that aim to increase the accuracy and overall clinical utility of the device. This study aims to collect data from sites for this purpose.
A Phase 2b study looks at the safety and efficacy of a treatment that is being investigated for people with certain diseases. This study will be conducted at multiple centers in the United States where participants with Gorlin Syndrome, also known as basal cell nevus syndrome, will be randomly placed into two groups; one group will receive the active topical gel, the other a topical vehicle gel, also know as placebo. Participants will apply this topical product to their face once a day for 6 months. The study will be looking at the number of new BCCs that develop on the faces of all the participants during this time.
Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) HIV treatments are associated with increased quality of life, and a normalisation of life expectancy in people living with HIV. However, long-term use of cART can lead to side-effects through exposure to drug-related toxicity. For this reason researchers are interested in looking at alternative therapies that might expose patients to fewer and less severe side effects while providing the same quality of care as antiretroviral therapies most often used to treat HIV. The purpose of this study is to investigate if the study drug combination that is being tested (doravirine + dolutegravir) is safe compared with other triple cART regimens.
