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.
Phase 1 trial of retinal pigment epithelium replacement in subjects with wet age-related macular degeneration in whom there is rapidly progressing vision loss
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the effectiveness of an evidence based exercise program for shoulder impingement. Approximately 1% of adults consult their General Practitioner (GP) with shoulder pain each year, making it the third most common reason for musculoskeletal GP consultations in the UK. A further 50% of these patients are diagnosed with subacromial impingement syndrome (SAIS) (shoulder impingement syndrome) and commonly referred for physiotherapy treatment. This trial aims to compare the effectiveness of an evidence based exercise protocol with usual physiotherapy care.
The current study is being conducted to assess the clinical and cost effectiveness of managing patients with a chronic or sub-acute wound in a community setting with PICO and to explore the patient experience and issues of concordance that affect patients treated with PICO.
The purpose of this study is to compare ofatumumab & chlorambucil (O-Chl) versus ofatumumab & bendamustine (O-B) in patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia who are considered not fit enough for rituximab, fludarabine & cyclophosphamide (R-FC).
Multi-center, dual cohort (randomized and single vessel) study designed to demonstrate feasibility, initial safety and performance of the Kips Bay Medical, Inc. eSVS® Mesh as an external vein support device for use over saphenous vein grafts during coronary artery bypass surgery. In the Randomized Cohort, each study subject will receive a SVG without Mesh (control) and a SVG with the eSVS Mesh (treatment). In the Single Vessel Cohort, each study subject will receive one SVG with the eSVS Mesh.
Primary Objective: To examine changes in expression of genes [particularly ABCA1 and SREBP2] involved in reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) in monocytes from HIV-infected subjects starting antiretroviral therapy and the different effect of NNRTI and PI based regimens Secondary Objective: To examine changes in monocyte intracellular cholesterol content in HIV-infected subjects starting antiretroviral therapy and the different effect of NNRTI and PI based regimens
The purpose of this study is to determine if weekly chemotherapy (i.e. giving paclitaxel or carboplatin at a lower dose every week) is more effective than standard chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin given once every three weeks over 18 weeks) in treating ovarian cancer. The investigators also want to see if weekly chemotherapy causes more or fewer side-effects than standard chemotherapy.
The proposed research aims to investigate whether people with intellectual disabilities are able to understand and apply the theoretical principles of cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) regarding the interaction between events, beliefs and emotions. Two studies are designed to assess and train the ability to link events, beliefs and emotions. Study 1 pilots computer-based tasks to assess the ability to link events, beliefs and emotions as well as a computer-based training programme aimed to link events and emotions. Task and training stimuli will be presented by line drawings to investigate whether a picture-based approach can reduce the impact of verbal ability on task performance. Training effectiveness is evaluated compared to a no-training control task. Study 2 compares the line drawings-based approach of Study 1 to a photographic approach to investigate whether the use of photographs can increase training effectiveness and further reduce the impact of verbal ability. It is hypothesised that the high reality value of photographic task stimuli, as compared to line drawings, will have positive effects on the assessment and training of CBT skills. It is anticipated that the findings of this research will improve our ability to help people with intellectual disabilities receive CBT.
The purpose of the present study is to determine: 1) the efficacy of 2 periodontal surgical procedures, the conservative simplified papilla preservation technique and the more resective open flap debridement with osseous recontouring, in the treatment of chronic periodontitis in terms of clinical, radiographic, microbiological, immunological and PROMs, comparing them to non-surgical subgingival debridement and 2) if possible, determine the surgical procedure which leads to pocket elimination or to the lowest number of residual pockets.
The primary objective is to identify compare SCOUT DS to random capillary glucose for identification of at-risk subjects with dysglycemia defined by hemoglobin A1c ≥ 6.0%.
