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.
The purpose of this open-label extension (OLE) study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of etrasimod in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) who previously received double-blind treatment (either etrasimod 2 mg per day or placebo) during participation in one of the qualified Phase 3 or Phase 2 double-blind, placebo-controlled parent studies including but not limited to: (APD334-301 [NCT03945188] or APD334-302 [NCT03996369] or APD334-210 [NCT04607837]).
To assess whether edoxaban (60/30 mg daily) compared to non-antithrombotic medical therapy (either no antithrombotic therapy or antiplatelet monotherapy) reduces the risk of stroke (composite of ischemic, hemorrhagic and unspecified stroke) in high-risk atrial fibrillation (CHA2DS2-VASc ≥2) patients with previous intracranial hemorrhage.
This study aims to investigate if lipid composition mapping using magnetic resonance imaging could improve early and accurate cancer detection in genetic mutation carriers at high risk of breast cancer. It is hypothesised that there is a significant difference in the extent of spatial variation in lipid composition in breast from MRI between genetic mutation carriers and patients with breast cancer.
Diet is the cornerstone treatment to manage blood sugar in people with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). Fibres like guar gum and protein are macronutrients that have an effect in blood sugar levels. Mycoprotein is a fungi-based food high in both dietary fibre and protein shown to have a role in regulating blood sugar levels in healthy. However, little is known about the effects of mycoprotein on blood sugar levels in people with T2D. We are interested in South Asian because they have a different blood sugar response to the same food than a Caucasian. The main aims of the study is to assess: - The effect of mycoprotein in different formats (soup or mince) in blood sugar levels and appetite in South Asian and Caucasian with Type 2 Diabetes. - The effect of the combination of mycoprotein with guar gum in different formats (soup or mince) in blood sugar levels and appetite in South Asian and Caucasian with T2D.
The study is a single-centre, prospective, observational cross-sectional imaging study aimed to determine if macrophage-mediated inflammation can be visualised in the aorta of patients with aortic dissection (AD) using ultrasmall super paramagnetic iron oxides (USPIO)-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Recently changes in mood and cognition have been reported following minor reductions in hydration status. The aim is to explore that such changes in part at least reflect placebo response; therefore the consumption of plain or coloured water will be compared in drinks designed to differ in their ability to rehydrate.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate whether using the the IMPELLA® CP System temporary circulatory assist device for 30 minutes prior to a catheterization procedure has the potential to reduce the damage to the heart caused by a heart attack, compared to the current standard of care.
1 in 7 couples experience difficulty in conceiving. Many will require in vitro fertilization (IVF). IVF involves an initial period of downregulation to suppress the ovaries and prevent premature ovulation. Hormone injections are then used to stimulate a woman's ovaries to produce eggs which are removed by a minor operation. The harvested eggs are mixed with sperm to create embryos in the laboratory. These embryos are replaced in the womb a few days after they are created (fresh embryo transfer). Any remaining embryos are frozen such that they can be thawed and transferred at a later date (frozen thawed embryo transfer, FTET). The investigators have previously shown that the presence of moderate or severe adenomyosis significantly reduces the chance of clinical pregnancy after embryo transfer. The purpose of this study is to examine whether it is possible to improve the chance of clinical pregnancy in these women by modifying the IVF protocol they undergo for FTET. The hypothesis is that a prolonged downregulation regimen for women with adenomyosis would reduce the inflammatory reaction in the endometrium of these women and thus improve the chance of implantation after embryo transfer. Consenting patients will be offered FTET. Those proceeding will be randomized to one of two protocols (A - standard protocol vs. B - prolonged downregulation protocol). Women will also be offered a questionnaire before and after IVF treatment to assess their adenomyosis symptoms . The primary outcome of the study is clinical pregnancy defined as an intrauterine pregnancy with a visible heart beat older than 6 weeks gestation. Secondary outcomes include livebirth, pregnancy loss (biochemical pregnancy, miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, stillbirth, termination of pregnancy), gestational age at delivery, birth weight, neonatal mortality, major congenital anomaly, serious medication reaction, number of frozen embryos available for transfer, number of days to achieve optimal endometrial thickness.
This is a study aimed at testing a commonly available and inexpensive chemical (hydrogen peroxide) for efficacy in sensitising large cancerous lumps in the breast to a standard course of radiotherapy in patients with locally advanced or recurrent breast cancer. Laboratory research and initial clinical trials in Japan suggest that 4 to 6 injections of a radiation sensitiser ('KORTUC') based on very dilute (0.5%) hydrogen peroxide injected into cancers under local anaesthetic twice a week during radiotherapy greatly increases the effectiveness of standard doses of radiotherapy alone. The side effects are limited to mild/moderate discomfort at the injection site for up to 24 hours reported by Japanese breast cancer patients in whom this treatment has been tested. Complete tumour shrinkage in 70/71 (98%) primary breast cancers up to 5 cm diameter have been reported by Japanese collaborators.
The overall aim of the study is to determine the feasibility of conducting a randomised controlled trial (RCT) studying the effectiveness of physiotherapy intervention (virtual training) in children with ataxia following surgical resection of posterior fossa tumour
