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.
CUTHIVAC002 is a randomised Phase I study aimed at exploring the safety and immunogenicity of two different modes of delivery of a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) vaccine (DNA-C CN54ENV) via combined intramuscular and intradermal methods with and without electroporation, and boosted with recombinant HIV CN54gp140 administered by intradermal injection in healthy volunteers. The aim of this study is to identify optimal DNA delivery conditions for promoting enhanced antibody responses to boosting with recombinant protein by the intradermal method.
The main purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that treatment with mirikizumab is superior to placebo in providing clinical benefit to participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC). This study will also investigate how the body processes the drug.
The study medicine is a potential future treatment for schizophrenia, an illness that affects the way that people think, feel or behave. It is not clear what causes schizophrenia, but it's been linked to chemical imbalance in the brain. It is hoped that the study medicine will activate specific sites in the brain to help correct that imbalance. Current treatments for schizophrenia don't work very well and can cause unpleasant side effects. It is hoped that the study medicine will work better, and have fewer side effects than existing medicines. In this 2 part study (Parts A and B), the primary aim is to assess how safe the study medicine is in healthy men, aged 18-45 years, and how much of it gets into the blood. Its effects on the brain will also be tested. In Part A, up to 24 participants will receive up to 5 single doses of the study medicine (AUT00206 or placebo) by mouth, either after fasting or after a high fat breakfast. The study medicine has never been given to humans before, so the initial doses will be small and the dose level will be increased as the study progresses. Participants may take up to 14 weeks to finish the study. They'll make up to 22 outpatient visits, and stay on the ward up to 5 times, for 3 nights in a row each time. In Part B, 24 participants will receive daily doses of the study medicine (AUT00206 or placebo) for up to 28 days. Participants will take up to 10 weeks to finish the study. They'll make 6 outpatient visits, and stay on the ward for up to 30 nights, depending on how long we expect it to take until blood levels of the study medicine level off. A pharmaceutical company, Autifony Therapeutics Limited, is funding the study. The study will take place at 1 centre in London.
The purpose of this study is to look at the levels of three HIV medications: atazanavir, darunavir and cobicistat in the blood after drug intake has been stopped, in order to understand how long these drugs persist in the blood. The study will specifically look at blood levels of these three drugs after taking them every day for 10 days. Participants will take Evotaz (atazanavir and cobicistat) on a first stage and Rezolsta (darunavir and cobicistat) on a second stage. If the participants decide to take part, the duration of the study will be up to 33 days plus a screening visit which will take place up to 28 days prior to the start of the study, and a follow up visit, which takes place 7 to 14 days after the last dose of study medication. This study is not randomised which means that all participants will receive all study medications in the same order. The participant and the study doctor will know which study medications the participant is taking at all times during the study.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 4 part study will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and antiviral activity of orally administered AL-794 in healthy volunteers (HV).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether AZD0156 is safe, what is the best dose to give, and how it is processed by the body when given alone or in combination with other agents. The study will also collect some initial information about how effective it is.
Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in the UK with around 43,500 new patients diagnosed each year. About 69% of patients are diagnosed with advanced stage disease and at present these patients would be expected to survive for less than 12 months. These statistics therefore show the need for the development of new effective drugs in the treatment of advanced Lung cancer. Recent trial results have shown the efficacy of immunotherapy in treating several types of tumours including lung cancer. These tumours are known to express a high level of a glycoprotein called PDL1 which is a component of the PD1 pathway. In cancer the PD1 pathway can be hijacked by tumours leading to the immune system being suppressed. The aim of the new drug Pembrolizumab is to restart the PD1 pathway and use the immune system to help fight the cancer cells. Radiotherapy has also been shown to cause cancer to increase production of the proteins that can block the immune system. Therefore it has been proposed that combine of new immunotherapy agent such as pembrolizumab and radiotherapy in the treatment of lung cancer will allow more cancer cells to be killed through the immune system. The purpose of this study is to see if pembrolizumab can safety be combined with standard palliative radiotherapy in patients with lung cancer. In addition once the patients have completed their course of radiotherapy they will remain on pembrolizumab alone and the study will look at how well this treatment regimen can control the growth of the cancer.
This is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DX-2930 in preventing acute angioedema attacks in patients with Type I and Type II HAE.
Metformin is the first-line treatment for medical management of Type 2 Diabetes. Up to 25% of patients experience significant gastrointestinal symptoms and in approximate 5%, side-effects result in the discontinuation of metformin. It would be of great clinical significance if the underlying cause of this intolerance was identified. Recent data has highlighted a metformin transporter in the gut - Organic Cation Transporter 1(OCT1) - as a potential culprit for the variability in metformin tolerance. Across a diabetic population, up to one in four people were shown to have a single reduced function allele for OCT1, with approximately 8% having two reduced function alleles. This may increase the risk of the individual experiencing metformin-associated side-effects, potentially due to accumulation within the cells lining the intestine. The investigators aim to show that loss of function of OCT1, either due to genetic variation or drug inhibition of OCT1, may lead to an increase in the symptoms associated with metformin intolerance. The study is being undertaken at the Clinical Research Centre in Ninewells Hospital, Dundee. The investigators will recruit participants from the GoDARTS study (Genetics of Diabetes and Audit Research Tayside Study). The participants will be healthy controls, i.e. non-diabetic, and recruited according to their genotype of OCT1 (information from GoDARTS). The volunteers will then enter a matched cross-over study with two treatment periods. Metformin is taken during both treatment periods alongside either Omeprazole (a proton pump inhibitor used to prevent excess stomach acid, known to interact with OCT1) or placebo. The metformin dose is increased gradually during each period, to a maximum tolerated dose. The investigators expect to see a lower maximum tolerated dose in individuals with loss of function genotype, or in those taking concurrent omeprazole compared to placebo. The study will last approximately 9 weeks. Volunteers have 3 visits to the CRC, and weekly phone call interviews.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate Cortiment® with regard to its use by clinicians in routine clinical practice and its effectiveness and tolerability in a real-life setting.
