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.
A randomized controlled study (RCT) to investigate the topical effectiveness of PluroGel in healing venous and mixed aetiology leg ulcers. Patients with venous and mixed aetiology leg ulcers will be identified from hospital outpatient clinics. Willing patients meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be consented and assessed in line with standard care. Participants will be randomized at Week 2 to receive either topical PluroGel or Intrasite gel (an alternative topical hydrogel product) if inclusion criteria is met.
This phase 1 single ascending dose study will provide a first in human assessment of safety and tolerability of PF-06755347 in healthy adult males as well as adult males and females with Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP). Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics will also be evaluated.
The goal of this study is to establish the accuracy of the new X-PSI Knee System guides by analyzing early postoperative (4-6 weeks) imaging data with regards to the mechanical alignment and compare them with preoperative planning imaging data. Mechanical alignment in the hip-knee-ankle (HKA) frontal plane with X-PSI Knee System will be measured and compared with results reported in the literature using a conventional (non-guided) approach. Hypothesis: The use of the new X-PSI Knee System achieves the same accuracy with respect to mechanical alignment as with conventional instrumentation.
This study will evaluate the change in tear meniscus height (TMH) produced by intranasal stimulation with TrueTear™ compared with the same device applied extranasally (control).
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre, multinational, prospective study in patients with operable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) prior to pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) with high preoperative pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). Patients will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to receive riociguat or matching placebo for 3 months before undergoing PEA. The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of riociguat on preoperative PVR compared to placebo in patients with operable CTEPH.
This is a Phase III, multicenter, open-label, randomized study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of cobimetinib plus atezolizumab compared with pembrolizumab in treatment-naive participants with advanced BRAFV600 wild-type melanoma.
Asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases affecting children in the UK. Poorly controlled asthma manifests with chronic cough, wheeze and shortness of breath which in-turn has a significant negative impact on a child's quality of life, interfering with sleep, impairing exercise ability and resulting in frequent school absences and hospital admissions. Management of paediatric asthma in the UK is directed by the British Thoracic Society (BTS) Guidelines, which recommend a stepwise (one to five) treatment plan. Step three of the management guideline for children aged 5-12 years of age recommends the addition of the preventer inhaled medication, including long-acting β2 agonists such as salmeterol. However, there is a wide variation in response to this medication with approximately one in seven people, with a specific genetic change, found to have an increase in asthma symptoms in association with the use of thisiss medication. A related medicine, formoterol, is used less commonly in children with asthma. In this study, the investigators will aim to identify children with asthma whose symptoms are poorly controlled on inhaled long-acting beta2 agonists. Via a simple saliva test, the investigators will identify the presence or absence of the specific genetic change potentally influencing the effectiveness of treatment with salmeterol or related longacting beta2 agonists thus enabling the investigators to recommend either salmeterol or an alternative medication for the treatment plan such as montelukast. The investigators will randomise the patients into two groups; to receive "personalised care" where the choice of controller medication would be based on the child's gene test results and predicted response to long-acting beta2 agonists, or "standard care" following the BTS guidelines at the clinician's discretion without knowledge of the gene test results. The investigators aim to measure whether this individualized approach to asthma prescribing results in improved control of asthma symptoms and overall quality of life. Targeting treatment to a child's specific genetic make-up is a concept known as "personalised medicine".
The purpose of this study is to determine whether FG-4592 is safe and effective in the treatment of anemia in participants with lower risk MDS and low red blood cell transfusion burden.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of SHP647 in inducing remission, based on composite score of participant-reported symptoms and centrally read endoscopy, in participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC).
Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy (CRT) is a specialist pacemaker procedure that aims to improve the efficiency of the heartbeat. This treatment is used routinely in patients with heart failure and a delay in electrical conduction across the heart seen on the surface ECG (heart tracing). Also CRT has been seen to improve some heart failure patients with a normal electrical conduction (seen on the ECG as a narrow QRS complex). The investigators aim to see if cardiac MRI can be used to select patients with normal electrical conduction for CRT, therefore expanding the number of people who would stand to benefit from this treatment.
