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 study evaluates the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of once daily SJX-653 in postmenopausal women with moderate to severe VMS.
Crohn's disease (CD) is a lifelong condition affecting the small and/or large bowel, causing diarrhoea, abdominal pain and weight loss. Patients with CD receive two tests to assess if the patients' CD is active, namely ileo-colonoscopy (camera examination of the large bowel, IC) and a scan of the small bowel (MRE). Together, these tests help determine if the patients' symptoms are due to CD, which is important as the medication to heal the bowel is strong. But, these investigations are uncomfortable, embarrassing, time-consuming and involve hospital visits to two separate departments. A new test involves swallowing a miniature camera, the size of a large vitamin pill (PillCam™ Crohn's (PCC)) that video-records the lining of the small and large bowel. Images are sent to a recorder worn over the tummy. The investigators aim to find out if the PCC capsule delivers a single test that is comparable to current tests (IC+MRE) for patients with CD. 125 patients with CD referred for IC+MRE will be recruited from 3 NHS hospitals. Each patient will undergo all three tests (IC+MRE and PCC). As there is a small risk of the capsule getting stuck (up to 3 in 100 patients), all patients will have a "dummy" capsule to check that the "real" capsule can travel safely through the bowel. If successful (checked with a handheld scanner and CT scan if required), patients proceed to PCC. Patients will receive bowel preparation (a drink to clean the bowel) prior to IC and PCC. The investigators will compare the findings of all three tests. The investigators will interview patients to find out their experiences to inform the way the test is introduced into practice. When consulted, local patients with CD felt the research question is extremely important and all preferred having one non-invasive test over two invasive and uncomfortable tests.
LYS-GM101 is a gene therapy for GM1 gangliosidosis intended to deliver a functional copy of the GLB1 gene to the central nervous system. This study will assess, in a 2-stage adaptive-design, the safety and efficacy of treatment in subjects with infantile GM1 gangliosidosis.
Initiating early compression therapy in the treatment of lower limb cellulitis for adults admitted to the acute hospital to improve patient outcomes - a pilot study Cellulitis is a skin infection that results in oedema (additional fluid within tissues), erythema (redness) and variable levels of skin damage. Patients generally present with malaise, pain and if a lower limb is affected they have difficulty mobilising and weight bearing. Patients within this organisation are often referred to the tissue viability service only after significant skin damage has occurred (even thought they are receiving appropriate antibiotic therapy). At this point they will be offered an established plan of care that includes compression therapy if it can be tolerated however at present less than 50% of those being admitted are referred. Despite compression therapy being well proven in oedema management there is no data available to support or reject the early application in lower limb cellulitis. There is also a lack of information about the impact of early intervention in quality of life for patients in this specific group. This study has been developed in order to determine the feasibility of being able to undertake a wider trial which would evaluate the outcomes of patients with acute lower limb cellulitis treated with compression therapy versus standard care. The objectives of the study would be to test the procedures and data collection tools being considered for use in a wider study. This would include collection of quality outcome questionnaires, limb circumference measurements and photography as well as recruitment of participants, the follow up processes and participant attrition. Secondary objectives would be linked to quality of life outcome measures and would determine oedema reduction (and its impact on quality of life), the average number of beddays compared to a historical cohort and to determine recurrence within the study period.
Cancer is a condition where cells in a specific part of body grow and reproduce uncontrollably. This study focuses on two types of cancers: Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). AML (blood cancer) is cancer of the white blood cells (WBC). NSCLC (solid tumor) is a disease in which cancer cells form in the tissues of the lung. The purpose of this study is to determine recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and to see if the study drug is safe and able to treat patients who have AML and NSCLC. ABBV-184 is an investigational drug being developed for treatment of cancer. The study has two arms and two phases: AML arm and NSCLC arm; dose escalation and dose expansion phase. Adult participants with diagnosis of AML or NSCLC will be enrolled. In dose escalation phase, around 36 participants will be enrolled in each arm. In dose expansion phase, around 20 participants will be enrolled in each arm. The study will be conducted in approximately 50 sites across 10 countries. Participants will receive weight based intravenous (IV) infusion of ABBV-184 once a week. At the beginning of the study, visits will occur daily during hospitalization followed by less frequently over time. There will be a 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 treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects, and questionnaires.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of macitentan 75 mg versus placebo on exercise capacity at Week 28 in participants with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH).
The purpose of this study was to determine whether potentiating the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) with QBW251 in subjects with COPD would be efficacious with regards to reducing lung and systemic inflammation and bacterial colonization as potential drivers of airway obstruction, airway destruction, remodeling and exacerbations. Furthermore, this study provided supportive data to investigate the relationship of COPD phenotype and the response in small airway structure, function, mucus load and spirometry indices as well as in improvement of overall COPD symptoms and quality of life.
The purpose of this randomized study is to assess safety and effectiveness of BMS-986263 in adults with compensated cirrhosis (chronic liver disease) from nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (fatty liver disease) (NASH).
Muscle weakness is one of the most common and debilitating symptoms following a Spinal Cord Injury (SCI). Strength training is recommended as an effective means to increase muscular strength and improve function for individuals with long term SCI. In contrast, the strength training guidance for those with a recent (<1 year) SCI is lacking. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the feasibility of a method of upper limb strengthening - Progressive Resistance Training (PRT) and its impact upon muscle strength and function.
A prospective, single centre, single-arm, pilot study investigating the safety and efficacy of a 12-week remotely-monitored home-based exercise program in patients with refractory fatigue (based on PBC-40 Quality of Life measure) secondary to Primary Biliary Cirrhosis.
