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 will compare the relative bioavailability of both an oral capsule formulation and an oral suspension formulation of NXP001 to Emend® in healthy male volunteers in the fasted state.
The reason for the study is to find out if MEDI5395 and durvalumab will work and be safe for the treatment of solid tumors.
Typhoid fever is an infection caused by the bacteria Salmonella Typhi (S. Typhi). S. Typhi causes disease principally in developing countries where communities do not have access to safe water or adequate sanitation. It is thought to cause illness in approximately 22 million people every year and up to 200,000 deaths, mostly in children. The bacteria are spread when faeces from infected individuals contaminate food and water sources. Symptoms of infection include headache, fever and general aches and pains. If not treated properly typhoid infection can lead to severe complications and even death. In this study the investigators aim to understand more about the S. Typhi bacteria and how S. Typhi causes a bloodstream infection after it has been ingested and passed into the gut. In spite of the extensive morbidity and mortality associated with bacterial blood stream infections (BSI), comparatively little is known about the pathogenesis. At a time of increasing antimicrobial resistance and a lack of new antimicrobial agents, understanding the pathogenesis of BSI is essential for efforts directed at prevention both of Salmonella Typhi and other bacterial species, particularly those that are restricted to humans.
This will be a double blind, randomised, placebo controlled, single and multiple oral dose study conducted in 3 parts: Part A, Part B and Part C. Part A and Part B include healthy volunteers only and will be completed before Part C including patients with primary mitochondrial disease will be initiated. The starting dose in the first cohort of Part A will be 25 mg. The dose level in the additional cohorts will be decided following review of data of the previous cohorts.
It is known that children with NF1 can have weak muscles and suffer from tiredness. It is also known that in similar conditions affecting children's muscles, standing on a vibration device for a few minutes each day can strengthen muscles and improve their ability to perform day-to-day activities. The investigators believe this vibrating platform can be used to strengthen the muscles of children with NF1 also, beyond standard exercises, and therefore allow them to perform day-to-day activities better, do more activity and feel less tired. If families are keen to take part in this study, the investigators will first need to check they are suitable for the trial. This will be based on the participant's age (6-16 years), their other medical problems that would affect use of the vibration device or tests to assess how effective it is, and their level of muscle weakness. Once families have agreed to take part, participants will be randomised either to receive a muscle-strengthening exercise session delivered by a physiotherapist that children with weak muscles should continue to perform daily for the next 6 months; or to receive a vibration device to take home and use for a few minutes 5 days a week for 6 months as well as the exercises. All participants will be invited to attend for a variety of activities and tests, just before starting the trial and 6 months later at the end of the trial to see if there is any benefit from the vibration device. The investigators will repeat these tests again 3 months later, to see if any benefits observed remain, even after the device is removed. They will involve jumping, hopping and balancing on a board, gripping a machine as hard and as long as possible, being fitted with a device that measures activity for 7 days, walking as far as possible for 6 minutes, scanning muscles using MRI, completing a tiredness and general well-being questionnaires, and parents completing a questionnaire of the participant's attention and intellect. The jumping will also be performed 3 months into the study, to see if there is any early improvement in this key test. All participants will be given full details of what the trial involves before taking part. As with any other trial, participants and their families are free to stop taking part at any time. Although the investigators do not anticipate any safety issues, if any do arise, the families will be asked to contact the trial team.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of patiromer compared with placebo on serum K+ in HF patients.
The study is conducted to improve knowledge about the epidemiology of Lipoprotein(a) in patients with established cardiovascular disease (CVD).
This is a single-dose, single center, single-period, open-label, non-randomized, mass balance recovery study in healthy male subjects.
The purpose of the study is to assess the accuracy of the Dexcom G6 CGM system and the Abbott FreeStyle Libre flash system compared to the reference standard YSI (Yellow Spring Instruments) glucose in people with diabetes undergoing haemodialysis. The Dexcom G6 is a continuous glucose monitoring system that gives blood glucose values in real-time and includes alarms if the glucose is very low or high. The Abbott FreeStyle ibre flash system is an intermittent glucose monitor that shows the blood glucose values when it is waved near the sensor and does not include alarms. The YSI glucose analysis will take place as a normal part of haemodialysis, by testing blood glucose levels during the haemodialysis session. The study will last 28 days per participant
In this study investigators will investigate the beneficial metabolic sequelae of Liraglutide in patients with obesity or overweight; including changes in vital signs, anthropometric characteristics (weight, body mass index and body composition), biochemical parameters, metabolomics and micro-ribonucleotide acid (miRNA) molecules from blood tests. Liraglutide is a commercially available analogue of a gut hormone physiologically produced in our bowel in response to food, licenced for the treatment of overweight or obesity. Liraglutide will be offered to patients attending National Health System (NHS) or private clinics within indication and according to their agreed clinical management. Investigators aim to collect real-life information for this study along with planned clinical management from patients who agree to their treatment and to take part in our study. Patients will be able to withdraw from treatment and study at any time without giving any explanation. If successful, this study will help us combine clinical, biochemical and molecular information which will allow us to gain deeper understanding on the mechanisms behind the beneficial metabolic effects of Liraglutide in overweight and obesity. Data generated from this study will hopefully help us acquire funding for a larger multicentre study; the results of which can have substantial impact on millions of people with overweight or obesity around the world.
