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.
This is a retrospective analysis of all patients diagnosed with LARC who received NCRT and had MRI scans between 2003-2014 at East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust. Region of interest was drawn around the tumor or its location on T2 MRI images. Six texture parameters were systematically extracted from Textural histograms of post-treatment scans. These parameters were examined to determine their ability to predict local recurrence and distant metastases through Kaplan-Meier survival curves and log-rank tests.
This is a Phase 1b, single center study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of GSK3923868 following repeat doses in mild asthmatics during experimental human rhinovirus 16 (HRV-16) infection. The study will be conducted in two parts. Part A will determine the efficacy of GSK3923868 administration after viral inoculation (i.e., therapeutic treatment) and Part B may be undertaken to determine the efficacy of GSK3923868 administration before viral inoculation (i.e., prophylactic treatment). The purpose of this study is to establish proof-of-mechanism that GSK3923868 treatment can reduce symptoms of Human Rhinovirus (HRV) infection in a controlled setting.
Participating in regular physical activity has been shown to reduce the risk of developing some diseases and disabilities that can occur with ageing. Muscles naturally decline with age, and in females this appears to occur more so around the time of menopause. Time, work, family commitments and the availability of facilities have all been identified as barriers to exercise in middle age. Increasing activity levels in middle age appears to improve muscle function and bone health. However, there is a lack of evidence in how muscle function responds to low impact resistance exercise in middle aged females. This study aims to assess the effectiveness and the mechanisms associated with building muscle as well as the effect on quality of life in middle aged (40-60 years) females using a low impact resistance training programme.
The main objectives of this study were to estimate the absolute bioavailability of ravulizumab/rHuPH20 subcutaneous (SC) and to assess the safety and tolerability of ravulizumab/rHuPH20 SC.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the United Kingdom, with 1 in 8 women affected during their lifetime. Whilst survival rates are high, the 5-year survival rate is 72% higher with the earliest stage breast cancer, compared to the latest disease stage. The National Health Service Breast Screening Programme invites women aged 50 to 70 years old every three years to a mammogram. By enabling earlier detection, it is estimated that the National Health Service Breast Screening Programme saves 1300 lives per year. Despite the potential benefits of breast cancer screening, attendance is falling. Behavioural Science is a field of study concerning understanding the processes underpinning human action. Behavioural theories, such as the Capability Opportunity Motivation-Behaviour model. Recent studies have shown the application of behavioural science to screening may also facilitate uptake of invitations. However, the use of plain text messages limits which behavioural determinants can be feasibly addressed, and what techniques can be used. Video messages can allow for more complex and a broader range of behavioural change techniques to be incorporated, and therefore have greater impact upon attendance. Whilst behavioural science-informed messages have previously been trialled by groups to facilitate breast screening attendance, their effectiveness has been variable. One of the reasons for this, is that text messages are of limited length and formatting capability, thus restricting the number of behavioural channge techniques that can be included. Moreover, some behavioural techniques are more complex than others, and plain text can limit the extent to which these can be feasibly incorporated. Video messaging provides a delivery mechanism that may enable more complex, and different combinations to be trialled. There is however, a paucity of data regarding the impact of sending a video-based behavioural science message upon attendance rates at breast cancer screening programmes. This study looks to investigate the impact of a video-message, compared to behavioural science-based text messages and standard reminder messages. The primary object is to determine the impact of behavioural science informed (1) video and (2) text messages compared to usual care, upon uptake of breast cancer screening. Secondary objectives involve how this impact on attendance differs between population subgroups including people from differing demographic groups.
Cook Like A Boss Online is a public engaging virtual cooking camp styled intervention evaluating an adapted theory-driven co-created intervention designed to improve perceived cooking competence.
An observational chart review study to describe the real-world outcomes and use of avelumab in combination with axitinib for treatment of patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma in the United Kingdom.
Primary research question: Are novel molecular tests for rapid detection of Mycoplasma and Gonorrhoea infections and antimicrobial resistance sensitive and specific in symptomatic patients attending a sexual health clinic? Secondary research question: Are novel molecular tests for detection of antimicrobial resistance in Mycoplasma and Gonorrhoea infections more accurate than standard laboratory culture techniques?
This study aims to identify new biomarkers that indicate the resilience of individuals to developing oral disease. An 'experimental gingivitis' model will be employed in which subjects will refrain from oral hygiene in one quadrant of their mouths for 3 weeks, and will then restore oral hygiene. Gum inflammation will be monitored by clinical measures throughout the trial and samples will be collected for analysis of microbial DNA and RNA.
The objective of this study is to assess the mass balance and routes of excretion of total radioactivity after a single oral dose of 1600 mg [14C]-NV-5138.
