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.
We aim to establish the point at which glare from bright lights begins to engage our eyelids - causing us to "squint". We will be using a video camera with an LED ring light around it facing the volunteer and we will record the eyelid position as the light brightness is increased gradually. Many studies have looked at the effect glare has on a person through qualitative questionnaires but few have been able to quantify this.
This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 study in participants with Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) who are not adequately controlled despite maximally tolerated lipid-lowering therapy.
The aim of the study is to compare progression-free survival (PFS) in previously treated participants with Kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS) p.G12C mutated colorectal cancer (CRC) receiving sotorasib 240 mg once daily (QD) and panitumumab vs investigator's choice (trifluridine and tipiracil, or regorafenib), and sotorasib 960 mg QD and panitumumab vs investigator's choice (trifluridine and tipiracil, or regorafenib).
This study will aim to collect proof of concept data to inform the study design of a larger paired comparison study to establish key research questions about the Heartfelt device. The current study will be run with 2 parallel workstreams. Both are presented here: Data collected from Work Stream 1 (WS1) is expected to give an indication of the usefulness of the volumes measured by the Heartfelt device in optimising diuretic therapy for patients undergoing ambulatory-IV diuretic treatment, as well as looking at the usefulness of foot volume changes monitoring post IV Diuretic treatment. As these patients are often managed in a home / community setting, objective indicators to assess oedema during treatment are currently limited. Data collected from Work Stream 2 (WS2), patients recently discharged after a heart failure hospitalisation (HFH), is expected to determine if the Heartfelt device can be used to monitor heart failure stability and detect fluid overload in patients recently discharged from hospital after an episode of decompensated heart failure. The investigators may also be able to get an indication of the number of days prior to hospital admission during which the Heartfelt device can detect changes in foot volume. Both workstreams will provide qualitative feedback, from health care practitioners, patients and carers in both groups about their experience using the Heartfelt Device.
A randomized, placebo-controlled study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of paltusotine (formerly CRN00808; an oral selective nonpeptide somatostatin receptor type 2 biased agonist) in subjects with non-pharmacologically treated acromegaly.
The complexities of the immune system make measuring the impact of dietary interventions upon its function challenging. The immune system is highly responsive to environmental influences, including the diet. An individual's diet provides the energy required to mount a strong and protective immune response, the building blocks required for synthesis of immune mediators such as antibodies and cytokines, and can also indirectly affect immune function via changes in the gut microbiome. Immune function varies across the lifecourse, with a well understood decline in immune function with age, resulting in impaired vaccination responses and an increased risk of infections and of severe complications and mortality arising from common communicable diseases such as influenza. This impaired immunity with ageing is known as immunosenescence and this affects both innate and acquired arms of the immune system.
To evaluate the relationship between glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and average glucose levels using continuous glucose monitoring.
It has become apparent that patients with co-morbidities have an increased risk of mortality from coronarvirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, the impact of subclinical respiratory and cardiovascular disease on the outcome of patients with COVID-19 is currently unknown. This observational study will assess the impact of incidental cardiovascular calcification on radiological imaging on the outcomes of patients with COVD-19.
The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about the study drug, sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (SG), and its dosing in combination with pembrolizumab or pembrolizumab and a platinum agent (carboplatin or cisplatin), in participants with advanced or metastatic (cancer that has spread) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
This study is a population-based, patient-level analysis of colon and ovarian cancer diagnoses in England over a 2-year period using a dataset created by linking NCRAS and NHS digital datasets. Our analyses will look into inequalities in the diagnostic and treatment pathway, and inequalities in treatment received, for those diagnosed with colon and ovarian cancer between 2016-2017.
