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.
Assess feasibility and safety of the Prostatic Urethra Lift (PUL) procedure in patients with acute urinary retention secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of luspatercept in subjects with MPN-associated myelofibrosis and anemia with and without RBC-transfusion dependence. The study is divided into a Screening Period, a Treatment Period (consisting of a Primary Phase, a Day 169 Disease Response Assessment, and an Extension Phase), followed by a Posttreatment Follow-up Period.
This is an open-label, prospective, uncontrolled, single arm, post-marketing study of the long-term safety and performance of EARFOLD® Implantable Clip System.
Angina is form of chest pain that is due to a lack of blood to the heart muscle. Angina is commonly triggered by stress and exertion, and is a common health problem worldwide. The diagnosis and treatment of angina is usually focused on detection of blockages in heart arteries, and relief of this problem with drugs, stents or bypass surgery. However, about one third of all invasive angiograms that are performed in patients with angina do not reveal any blockages. Many of such patients may have symptoms due to narrowings in the very small micro vessels (too small to be seen on an angiogram). The purpose of this research is to undertake a 'proof-of-concept' clinical trial to gather information as to whether routine tests of small vessel function in the heart might help identify patients with a stable coronary syndrome due to a disorder of coronary function (vasospastic or microvascular angina), and appropriately rule out this problem in patients with normal test results. The diagnostic strategy enables stratification of patient sub-groups to optimized therapy (personalised medicine). Evidence of patient benefits in this study would support the plan for a larger study that would be designed to impact on healthcare costs and patient reported outcome measures (PROMS).
Current care randomized clinical trial comparing the CE marked Symetis ACURATE neo™ Aortic Bioprosthesis and ACURATE TF™ Transfemoral Delivery System with the CE marked Medtronic CoreValve Evolut R TAVI system (or any future CE-marked CoreValve versions).
Intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (IV t-PA) has been the only proven therapy for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) for almost 20 years. Whether IV t-PA prior to endovascular clot retrieval is beneficial for AIS patients with a proximal vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation has currently become a matter of debate and is a relevant unanswered question in clinical practice. The main objective is to determine whether subjects experiencing an AIS due to large intracranial vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation will have non-inferior functional outcome at 90 days when treated with direct mechanical thrombectomy (MT) compared to subjects treated with combined IV t-PA and MT. The secondary objectives are to study causes of mortality, dependency and quality of life in these AIS patients.
Ascites is the accumulation of fluid inside the abdomen. This can happen when the liver fails due to a substantial amount of scarring (cirrhosis). Patients (pts) must have this fluid drained and as cirrhosis progresses, patients will require drainage of ascites repeatedly on a regular basis, leading to frequent hospitals visits and increased complications. The current drainage device is slow and doesn't always drain completely so pts have to return repeatedly to keep symptoms under control. A new device (called Melody) has been developed and specifically designed for the purpose of draining ascites fluid, which the Investigators expect to drain faster and completely. This study will compare the volume of ascites drained using the new 'Melody' catheter device with that used in standard NHS practice. If the melody catheter device is confirmed as superior to the current device this would improve patient experience (less frequent visits to hospital and increased length of time between visits). With fewer procedures performed per patient, the pressure on the NHS would be greatly reduced in terms of time and costs.
This is a phase IIIb, single arm, open-label, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of emicizumab in participants with congenital hemophilia A who have documented inhibitors against Factor VIII (FVIII) at enrollment. Approximately 200 participants, aged 12 or older, will be enrolled in this study and are expected to be enrolled at approximately 85 sites globally. Participants will receive an initial weekly dose of prophylactic emicizumab subcutaneously for 4 weeks, followed by a weekly maintenance dose subcutaneously for the remainder of the 2-year treatment period.
This Phase III, global, multicenter, open-label, randomized, controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab (an anti-programmed death-ligand 1 [anti-PD-L1] antibody) compared with a single agent chemotherapy regimen by investigator choice (vinorelbine or gemcitabine) in treatment-naïve participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who are deemed unsuitable for any platinum-doublet chemotherapy due to poor performance status (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group [ECOG] performance status of 2-3).
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether there are differences in postprandial metabolic indices following interesterified fats used commercially versus the corresponding un-interesterified blend.
