There are about 25257 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.
Study RAD-GRIN-201 is a phase 1B/2A trial to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and potential efficacy of radiprodil in participants with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) or Focal Cortical Dysplasia (FCD) type II. The study is open-label, so all participants will be treated with radiprodil. Subjects' participation in the study is expected to last up to six months in Part A and one year in Part B/long-term treatment period. The treatment period in Part B may be extended based on a favorable benefit/risk profile.
Exercise can cause muscle damage, leading to a loss in muscle function, increased muscle soreness and inflammation. Evidence supports the use of nutritional strategies to help recovery. Spirulina is a type of algae. It is eaten as a food supplement as it is full of micronutrients, some which provide anti-inflammatory benefits. This work will assess the impact of taking spirulina supplements on recovery from hard exercise. Investigators will measure changes in muscle function, soreness and markers of inflammation.
Op-TICS is a clinical investigation of the use of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), with a CE marked implantable device, to reduce severe motor and vocal tics in patients who suffer from Tourette Syndrome (TS). It is a randomised, double-blind, crossover clinical investigation for 20 patients. Op-TICS will be performed at the National Hospital for Neurology & Neurosurgery. Following DBS surgery, participants will first enter an open adjustment phase, of 6 months, where the electrical stimulation settings of the device are optimised. Participants will then enter the double-blind phase that will include successively up to 2 weeks with stimulation on and up to 2 weeks with the stimulation off in a randomised order. The primary outcome measure is the tic severity score measured by the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale -Total Tic Score after two weeks OFF-stimulation versus two weeks ON-stimulation in the double-blind randomised crossover phase
Two-centre complex intervention development and feasibility trial using mixed qualitative and quantitative approach
The aim of the present clinical trial is to assess how raspberry leaf polyphenols impact on postprandial glucose and insulin levels in healthy individuals consuming sucrose. The questions the project will address: - Do raspberry leaf polyphenols lower sucrose-induced increases in plasma glucose in humans? - Do these polyphenols mediate these effects by inhibiting digestion of sucrose or the absorption of glucose. 20 healthy adults will be recruited between the ages of 18-65 years who are non-smokers and not taking certain types of medication (e.g., drugs from a GP for high blood pressure, high blood fats, inflammatory conditions, and depression) or dietary supplements (e.g., cholesterol-lowering spreads, fish oil, probiotics, prebiotics, and natural laxatives), antibiotics in the last three months or if they used any drugs or supplements that could affect their blood glucose or lipid metabolism. No abnormal results for liver function tests, renal function tests, and lipid profile tests. If they have food allergies or consume more than 14 units of alcohol per week (i.e., to help they calculate a alcohol intake, one standard glass of wine (175 ml) or one pint of regular lager is equivalent to just over two units of alcohol), frequently travel for work or are participating in another intervention study, they will not be able to participate. Women who are pregnant or lactating or planning a pregnancy in the next six months will also not be able to take part, not use herbal medicines for at least the previous three months, not be on a weight loss program six months before screening, not involved in clinical trials six months before the screening, and not having severe cardiac, hepatic, or renal function impairment. Not Sufferers of chronic illnesses, not Individuals with food allergies, not people with coeliac disease. They will be asked to attend a four-study visit after an eight-hour overnight fast. Volunteers will be asked to consume 50 g of carbohydrate powder (sucrose and glucose) with or without 10 g of raspberry leaf tea, which will be dissolved in 300 mL of warm water during four visits (every month). Blood samples will be taken at intervals for a period of two hours after the consumption of raspberry leaf or control. Blood glucose and insulin levels will be tested 15 minutes before, at 15,30,60,90, and 120 minutes after carbohydrate intake.
Micro-vegetables (MV) are seedlings of larger vegetables. They can be grown quickly and are a concentrated source of micronutrients. MV are thought to have broad health benefits, including many inflammatory conditions. These include metabolic, cardiovascular, and cognitive diseases. This could have important implications for the health of an ageing UK population. Less than a third of British adults consume 5 portions of fruit and vegetables per day; this is the level that reduces risk of morbidity and mortality. Vegetables, including MV may - at least in part - exert their health effects by changing the level and type of bacteria in the mouth and gut. Despite their promise, the MV scientific literature is not yet extensive enough to support definitive health claims. It requires the addition of high-quality studies that are relevant to humans. This study will firstly investigate the anti-inflammatory effects on skeletal muscle and adipose tissue in older adults, using a proteomics approach. Second, this study will assess concentrations of circulating inflammatory markers in the sera collected from participants at baseline and at the conclusion of a 6-week period. Further, this study will describe the effects of six weeks MV consumption on cognition, and the oral and gut microbiome. As the bioactive compounds in the MV are owed to the potential beneficial effects for human health, these will be characterised in sera collected from participants.
Machine learning used to develop an algorithm to determine chance of success with expectant or medical management for an individual patient. Taking into account the following objective measures: - Demographics: Maternal Age, Parity - History: Previous CS, Previous SMM/MVA, Previous Myomectomy - Gestation by LMP - Presenting symptoms: Bleeding score, Pain score - USS Measurements: CRL, GS, RPOC 3 dimensions, Vascularity - Discrepancy between gestation by CRL and LMP Audit to collate 1000 cases and identify features contributing to an algorithm that can predict outcome of miscarriage management for individualized case management.
OPAL is a multicenter observational study, following the natural disease trajectory of participants who have permanent damage to their liver caused by scarring, sometimes also referred to as liver cirrhosis. These participants will also have recently had an acute worsening of their liver disease, which is also known as a hepatic decompensating event, which has resulted in them being admitted to hospital or required them to seek medical attention as an outpatient.
A DDI study consisting of 3 parts conducted as an open label, fixed sequence study in healthy adult subjects.
This randomised control clinical trial aims to investigate the effects of exercise training and diet on physical and functional fitness and immunological and metabolic changes in adults with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. Investigators will randomise participants to either 12 weeks of supervised/semi-supervised exercise only, exercise + nutritional guidance, or no exercise.
