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.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the process of symptom change in Cognitive Behavioural Analysis System of Psychotherapy (CBASP), and how the individual components of the therapy affect this change in individuals with chronic depression.
The study is being conducted to investigate the effect of itraconazole treatment in the pharmacokinetics of RG1662. It is also to evaluate the exposure of RG1662 vs. QTc response relationship and the safety and tolerability of RG1662 when given in combination with itraconazole in healthy subjects.
Epilepsy is disabling and costly to patients and the health service. Nearly 400,000 people in England suffer from epilepsy. About 40% of these patients are known to have seizures predominantly in sleep. All seizures pose risk to the individual both physical and psychological. Nocturnal seizures pose extra risk as the diagnosis may be missed or delayed. Patients with nocturnal seizures are also thought to be at particular risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), especially if their seizures are unobserved. In patients with poor seizure control, the risk of SUDEP has been found to be as high as 9 per 1,000 patient years. Previous studies show that many seizures are associated with changes in the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) tone. The ANS tone can be assessed using heart rate variability parameters (HRV). A few studies suggest that ANS tone changes tend to precede the onset of epileptic seizure related surface electroencephalographic (EEG) changes, suggesting that ANS tone changes could be used in seizure alarm or intervention systems. This prospective study intends to focus on seizures from sleep and study HRV parameters in the immediate preictal state of the seizure and compare these with resting HRV parameters in the same patient with the aim of finding HRV metrics which could help to identify the presence of seizures in longterm electrocardiographic (ECG) recordings, or help predict seizure occurrence, or provide information about the current risk of seizures. This study will also investigate whether there are differences in the alterations of HRV parameters between different forms of epilepsy and whether seizure lateralisation has an impact on HRV parameters.
Use of dipole density mapping to identify activation in complex supraventricular tachycardias.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of switching abacavir/lamivudine (ABC/3TC) fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablets to emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (F/TAF) FDC tablets versus maintaining ABC/3TC in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infected adults who are virologically suppressed on regimens containing ABC/3TC.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending (SAD), and multiple ascending dose (MAD) study conducted at a single clinical site within the UK. Healthy male and female subjects (on non-child bearing potential) will be enrolled to investigate single inhaled doses of molgramostim at 3 dose levels (Part 1) and multiple inhaled doses at 2 dose levels (Part 2). The 2 doses in the multiple ascending dose regimens will be administered once daily (QD) for 6 consecutive days. The clinical indication for inhaled molgramostim is the treatment of respiratory diseases such as aPAP, bronchiectasis and cystic fibrosis. The Clinical trial will involve 42 healthy participants. The trial is expected to last approximately 4 months.
In order for flexible sigmoidoscopy to be a successful screening procedure, the bowel must be free of solid matter so the endoscopist has a clear view, increasing the chance of detection of abnormalities. This is achieved through the use of bowel cleansing preparations, which are administered prior to the procedure. Enemas are the preferred method as they clear the lower bowel more quickly than oral formulations and do not require dietary restrictions. The medical device being tested in this clinical investigation is NER1008, an enema which contains PEG3350 (polyethylene glycol 3350). PEG3350 is an osmotic agent, which holds the water content in the rectum and sigmoid colon, consequently increasing stool volume, resulting in rectal distension and subsequent distal colon emptying. The increased colonic luminal content stimulates the motility, propulsive transportation and rectal evacuation of the distal colon content. This study is designed to assess the performance of NER1008 in bowel cleansing and compare this with the performance of Fleet® enema, which is widely used for this purpose.
There is an increasing demand for researchers and regulatory bodies to use robust outcome measures in clinical trials which have evidence of validity, reliability, and responsiveness. There is currently little agreement on the core clinical endpoints that should be used in bronchiectasis. The importance of improving endpoint outcome measurement is well recognised and groups in other conditions have focused on activities to achieve consensus on a core set of outcomes for clinical trials. The Bronch-UK collaboration has explored the current evidence for clinimetric properties of commonly used outcome measures in bronchiectasis (e.g. forced expiratory volume in one second [FEV1], health related quality of life [HRQoL], and pulmonary exacerbations). The results of this extensive rigorous literature review of 68 papers clearly demonstrate that whilst there was good evidence for validity for key outcome measures in bronchiectasis there is little information available on their reliability (during periods of clinical stability) or response to treatment (effect sizes). The aim of this study is to explore the clinimetric properties of a range of outcome measures, in order to make recommendations for their use in clinical trials in bronchiectasis.
Stress ulcer prophylaxis (SUP) is standard of care in the intensive care unit (ICU), however the quantity and quality of evidence is low and potential harm has been reported. The aim of the SUP-ICU trial is to asses the overall benefits and harms of SUP with proton pump inhibitor in adult critically ill patients in the ICU.
The overall aim of this randomized control trial study is to investigate the effectiveness of a six-month, community based, pedometer supported, walking programme, along with an education programme incorporating behavioural change techniques on steps count and sedentary time, disease activity, functional capacity and cardiovascular risk of people within the first five years of being diagnosed with RA.
