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 study will recruit healthy volunteers who use cannabis infrequently. Each participant will attend the laboratory on five occasions: an initial visit to check that they are safe to join the study and four days of testing. Participants will be administered, in a randomized order, vaporized cannabis containing one of four different ratios of CBD:THC (0:1, 1:1, 2:1, 3:1). The cannabis administration will follow a standardised inhalation procedure using a medical-grade vaporizer device. Participants will complete a series of tasks measuring cognition, psychosis, anxiety and other subjective experiences. The study will be carried out at the NIHR-Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Facility at King's College Hospital.
A visual field (VF) is a measurement of how wide an area our eyes can see when fixed onto a point. Visual field testing is one of the ways of assessing how much vision there is in each eye and how much vision might have been lost over time. Defects in the visual field are seen in diseases such as glaucoma, which is one of the leading causes of blindness. VF tests should be performed regularly during outpatient appointments to help monitor these conditions before they progress. Monitoring individuals with VF defects presents a large strain on eye services at University Hospitals Southampton (UHS). Recently an Apple iPad-based application called 'VisualFields easy' has been developed that could be used at home to test visual fields, opening up the possibility of remote monitoring. This is especially significant since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic which has left outpatient clinics across the UK with large patient backlogs. However, it's not understood yet to what level of accuracy this iPad test can be performed by untrained people and whether the results of this test are medically reliable. This study will measure if there's a correlation between iPad-based VF measurements and the standard clinic-based measurements taken by professionals. The potential of this app to be used at home will also be assessed with a usability questionnaire. These measurements will be taken during routine eye and neurology outpatient clinics at UHS. Home-based VF testing could allow those who weren't able to access eye services during the pandemic greater follow-up and monitoring. Through providing regular, up-to-date information on a patient's condition and progress, VF tests at home may improve outcomes. The investigators also foresee the benefits of this app on NHS clinical services, with the potential of reduced outpatient appointments and waiting times thus easing pressure on the NHS.
The purpose of this study is to explore how a rehabilitation tool (GripAble) could be used to monitor the effect of BoNT-A during an injection cycle and understand its potential value as a home rehabilitation tool in routine practice.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, efficacy, tolerability, and toxicity of docetaxel alone, in combination with BMS-986218, or in combination with nivolumab plus BMS-986218 in men who have metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) that progressed after novel antiandrogen therapy and have not received chemotherapy for mCRPC.
CPX-351 Real World Effectiveness and Safety Study (CREST UK) is a real-world evidence study designed to collect data on the potential benefits and/or risks of Vyxeos liposomal (liposomal daunorubicin/cytarabine; CPX-351) in routine clinical practice in the United Kingdom (UK).
The purpose of the study is to understand the gastrointestinal transit time and disintegration behavior of the formulations in vivo in normal healthy volunteers when ALLN-346 formulations are given with light meal or in fasted or other fed states.
Title of research: A preliminary Randomised Controlled Study online Mindfulness-Based-Intervention for African-Caribbean men with Erectile Dysfunction Research aim: How an online mindfulness intervention, based on a behavioral health taxonomy, might reduce symptoms of erectile dysfunction and increase sexual well-being among African-Caribbean men in the United Kingdom. Research intention: If the Mindfulness-based intervention reduces symptoms of erectile dysfunction and increases sexual wellness, then we would repeat this study on a larger scale among Black, Asian, Minority, and Ethnic men via the National Health Service. A brief overview of intervention: Erectile dysfunction is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection in up to 75 to 100% of sexual attempts, including masturbation and sexual intercourse. It is typically very costly to treat on the National Health Service, using the combination of medication (e.g. Viagra) and psychosexual therapy. The use of mindfulness in healthcare for varied psychosocial difficulties is gaining popularity. A meta-analysis on mindfulness and sexual dysfunction among men and women. Whilst gender differences were the priority focus of the analysis, it also looked at how well-represented cultural and minority groups were within the existing clinical trials. The review identified no studies relating to Black, Asian, Minority and Ethnic men with erectile dysfunction and mindfulness. Quantitatively, the research is structured so that participants will be randomized to either the experimental or control group (n=34 experimental; n=34 control waitlist). A 2-month follow-up will be taken to determine the sustainability of this intervention.
The primary objective is a clinical superiority effectiveness contrast to standard of care. Reported following SPIRIT and CONSORT standards, the study will determine whether extended-release injectable depot Buprenorphine (XR-Bup) maintenance therapy for OUD over six months is clinically superior to standard-of-care, oral medication (sublingual Buprenorphine [SL-Bup] or oral methadone [Met]; together: Bup/Met)
This is a single-arm, open-label study to assess the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and exploratory efficacy of tocilizumab (TCZ) for the treatment of pediatric patients from birth to less than 18 years old hospitalized with COVID-19 and who are receiving systemic corticosteroids and require supplemental oxygen or mechanical ventilation.
A randomised controlled feasibility study to compare two surgery techniques in the formation of a permanent end colostomy; the trans-peritoneal(TP) technique - currently, the most commonly used technique and the investigational extra-peritoneal(EP) technique, which has been reported in small studies to reduce the risk of parastomal hernia . This feasibility study will primarily aim to determine the feasibility viability of progression to a full multi-centre trial and test study design acceptability for participants. Participants will be asked to consent to be randomised to either the TP or EP procedure during surgery. Following surgery, participants will be followed up to a maximum of 12 months and asked to complete quality of life questionnaires (EQ5D and Colostomy Impact Score). Participant data will also be accessed by research teams at site to collect data on stoma appliance use and complications.
