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 objective of this trial is to assess the effect of empagliflozin on cardiac physiology and metabolism aiming to provide a scientific explanation of the underlying mechanism by which empagliflozin improves HF related outcomes in patients with chronic heart failure
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the commonest non melanoma skin cancer in the UK and its incidence is rising. The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital Foundation Trust (NNUHFT) see and excise approximately 3,000 new cases of BCC each year. Many of these patients have a biopsy to confirm their diagnosis before being listed for surgical excision. In vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) involves using a machine which can examine the upper layers of the skin non invasively. In clinically suspicious lesions, the Investigators will use RCM prior to biopsy with the aim of demonstrating that RCM can accurately diagnose BCC. The aim of this study is to determine the feasibility and utility of using RCM for the diagnosis of BCC in the NHS setting, thereby shortening the patient pathway and effectively using limited public resources. If the Investigators' study shows that RCM can accurately diagnose BCC in these patients then this would prevent the need for biopsy as a routine in these patients.
The incidence of conditions requiring surgical intervention increases with age, however there is a reported decline in the rates of elective surgical procedures in those over 65. This is associated with older patients being described as "less fit" and more at risk of postoperative complications, leading to decreased provision of surgical care to those at need. Exercise interventions have the potential to reverse some of the decline in cardiovascular fitness associated with aging and improve the elderly's' "fitness for surgery" and potentially allow increased access to surgical care for those most in need of it.
The purpose of this study is to see if BMS-986205 combined with nivolumab, compared to nivolumab by itself, is more effective in treating Melanoma that has spread or is unable to be removed by surgery, and has not previously been treated
The objective of this post market study is to examine the safety and performance of the Shockwave Coronary Intravascular Lithotripsy System for the treatment of narrowed coronary arteries before the doctor places a stent.
This study will be conducted to assess the safety and tolerability of BOS172722 when administered as monotherapy and in combination with paclitaxel in participants with advanced nonhaematologic malignancies and also to establish the maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose of BOS172722 in combination with paclitaxel in those participants.
The ASICA study is looking at how the UK National Health Service (NHS) might use technology in the future to more effectively support people who have been treated for melanoma.
The study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study of imatinib (as mesilate) in healthy subjects exposed inhaled lipopolysaccharide. During the study, eight oral doses of imatinib, or placebo, will each be taken 12 hours apart, before subjects are exposed to nebulized lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Four hours after LPS exposure, a bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) will be undertaken, and BAL fluid (BALF collected. Once study assessments are completed, a follow-up visit will be conducted approximately 7 days after the last dose of imatinib. The primary objective of the study is to investigate the effect of imatinib on LPS-induced pulmonary vascular dysfunction. The primary endpoints of this study are: 1. Change in the number of neutrophils in BALF 6 hours after the LPS challenge in subjects exposed to imatinib compared with placebo. 2. Change in concentration of total protein in BALF 6 hours after the LPS challenge in subjects exposed to imatinib compared with placebo
This is an observational, non-interventional study to assess the equivalence of wearable monitors with formal CPET testing for the prediction of physiological reserve before major surgery.
This prospective clinical study will evaluate the intra-operative performance of the powered circular stapler used in left colectomy procedures in a post-market setting.
