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 is a post market prospective, multi-center study of up to 100 subjects undergoing post-mastectomy breast reconstruction (50 Fortiva® 1mm perforated and 50 Fortiva® 1mm non-perforated) at up to 10 clinical study sites in Europe.
Researchers already did studies in low-dose Aspirin for the prevention of heart and blood vessels disease and for the prevention of cancer of the colorectum. In this study, they want to learn whether an effect for the prevention of oesophagus cancer and stomach cancer goes along with the use of low-dose ASA on patients taking this medicine for the prevention of heart and blood vessels disease compared to non-use. To find this out electronic medical records stored in primary care database in the UK, The Health Improvement Network (THIN), will be used.
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is the most common chronic pathology in sports medicine and physiotherapy clinics. As pain and inflammation are the main symptoms of PFP, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic medications are often utilized to decrease pain and inflammation; however alternative treatments are increasingly being sought due to the cardiovascular and gastrointestinal side effects of traditional pain medications. Most researchers advocate conservative treatment, though there is still insufficient clarity regarding the effectiveness of conservative treatment modalities. Dietary interventions for PFP have not received any attention in clinical literature, yet there is a growing body of evidence indicating that cherries have significant anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and pain-mediating effects. Therefore, the primary purpose of the proposed investigation was to test (using a randomized control investigation) the ability of a tart cherry juice blend to provide symptom relief in recreational athletes with PFP and to understand the biological and mechanical mechanisms behind any changes in PFP symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether CPC634 (CriPec® docetaxel) is effective in the treatment of patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer who are resistant to prior platinum-based chemotherapy .
The aim of the present study is to test I-PLAN as a self-management tool to promote hearing aid use and benefit (measured by self-reported questionnaires and hearing aid data-logging) among new adult hearing aid patients via a randomised controlled trial compared to treatment as usual. We hypothesized that the I-PLAN will increase hearing aid use and reduce self-reported hearing difficulty via promoting hearing aid use habits and self-regulation with respect to hearing aid use.
ORBITA-2 is a double blinded randomised placebo-controlled trial comparing the effects of coronary angioplasty versus placebo procedure on symptoms of stable angina without background anti-anginal therapy. Follow-up will be at 12 weeks.
The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 4 doses of cenerimod versus placebo in adult subjects with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
This study will collect data on bleeds and data related to quality of life in people with severe congenital (a disease existing from birth) haemophilia A and B, with or without inhibitors. The aim for the study is to look at the number of bleeds when on usual treatment for haemophilia. Participants will be asked to keep an electronic diary to track the number of bleeds and the treatment of their bleeds. Participants will be asked to wear an activity tracker on their wrist to capture their level of activity every day for up to 12 weeks. While taking part in this study, participants will keep getting their usual treatment as given to them by their doctor. All study visits at the clinic are done in the same way as the participants are used to. In the time between the participants' visits to the clinic, the study staff at the clinic may call or email the participant. The study will last for about 2½ years.
The reason for this study is to compare the study drug LY900014 to insulin lispro (Humalog) in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
The aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility of an intervention to reduce sedentary behaviour in older adults waiting for hip and knee replacements. The study will be a randomised controlled trial design, including 2:1 randomisation into an intervention and usual care group respectively. A target of n=45 patients ≥60 years will be recruited from Russells Hall Hospital, Dudley, UK, approximately 8-10 weeks before surgery, assisted by research nurses. The variable-length intervention, informed by Self-Determination Theory (SDT), will be composed of multiple behaviour change techniques, namely motivational interviewing, individualised feedback on sedentariness, goal-setting, environmental modification, self-monitoring, and social support. Assessments will occur at baseline, 1 week pre-surgery, and 6 weeks post-surgery. The primary outcome will be the feasibility of the trial, assessed quantitatively using study statistics, and with mixed-methods assessment of acceptability, practicality, adaption, satisfaction, and safety via questionnaires given to participants. Exploratory outcomes will include physical function, cardiometabolic biomarkers, measurement of SDT constructs, and both objective and subjective measurement daily activity and sedentariness. The study will last up to 18 weeks per participant.
