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 the study is to compare the pharmacokinetic parameters of ReFacto and Advate, using the chromogenetic substrate assay to measure plasma Factor VIII activity in plasma.
This pilot study will measure the baseline levels and the intra- and inter-subject variability of exhaled (alveolar and bronchial) and nasal NO in smoking subjects with mild and moderate COPD on or off steroid treatment, smoking healthy volunteers and non-smoking mild asthmatics off steroids, using multiple exhalation flow rates. I
The primary aim of this study is to investigate the effects of inhaled lipopolysaccharide endotoxin (LPS) on bronchial and alveolar exhaled nitric oxide (NO) and NO metabolites and other inflammatory markers and mediators in exhaled breath condensate, induced sputum, nasal lavage and mouthwash fluid in healthy non-smokers and current smokers, including patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
To investigate a possible mechanism of the GR defect in patients with severe COPD by studying the effect of dexamethasone (Dex) on GR-GRE binding, expression of inflammatory and anti-inflammatory factors such as IL-6, IL-8, MKP-1, GILZ, SLPI production in sputum cells
T.to investigate a possible mechanism of the glucocorticosteroid receptors (GR) defect in patients with severe COPD by studying the effect of dexamethasone (Dex) on GR- binding, interleukin production (IL-6/IL-8) and MKP-1 expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells blood (PBMC)
This investigation will utilize a systematic determination of anti-FVIII antibody specificity in PTPs (> 50 ED) with hemophilia A who have developed inhibitors in response to treatment with any FVIII product(s). A group of patients with hemophilia A, who have no evidence of current or prior FVIII inhibitor will be included for comparison. The objective of this study is to describe the patterns of antibodies and associated epitopes in the study population.
This study will compare the effect of A4I antagonist and placebo on MRI lesions,on clinical endpoints, and safety in patients with relapsing Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Eligible patients will be randomized to receive placebo or A4I antagonist, 20mg, 80mg or 300mg, po bid. Patients will undergo MRI brain scans and MS clinical evaluations at intervals throughout the study. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as alemtuzumab, can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well alemtuzumab works in treating patients with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia.
RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as KRN7000 use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of KRN7000 in treating patients who have solid tumors that have not responded to previous treatment.
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of monoclonal antibody therapy in treating patients who have primary myelodysplastic syndrome.
