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 proposed study is designed to investigate if and how pregnant women infected with Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19) infection go on to develop long-term immunity. In December 2019, a group of people in Wuhan, China presented with symptoms of a pneumonia of an unknown cause that led to the discovery of a new coronavirus called COVID-19. COVID-19 has caused a global pandemic with 7,140,000 confirmed cases and 418,000 deaths as of 13th June 2020. In the United Kingdom (UK), there have been 294,000 cases and 41,662 deaths as of 13th June 2020. In humans, this infection primarily involves the upper part of the lungs, but it can also affect other organs. It causes mild symptoms in the majority of people affected but some people can have severe infections, with some even requiring critical care in hospital. During Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), a previous coronavirus epidemic, pregnant women were disproportionately affected with severe illness. Understanding how the immune system responds long-term to this infection may hold the key to developing better vaccines and efficient treatment plans. Specialised immunity develops when individuals are infected by this and other viruses. The investigators of this study propose that, in pregnancy, this specialised immunity may not behave effectively. This may affect their ability to develop long lasting immunity and make them more vulnerable to re-infection. In this study, the investigators aim to recruit patients across 6 groups including COVID-19 newly infected pregnant women, and people with differing illness severity, mild to moderate, severe/critical, no infection (controls), as well as pregnant women with influenza and those receiving influenza vaccine. The study team will compare COVID-19 in pregnancy with non-pregnant infected and with influenza infected and vaccinated pregnant women. The study team will consent patients in all of these groups to provide a series of blood samples at different time points in a 12-month period.
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two doses of GT005 administered as a single subretinal injection in subjects with geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
prospective, non-randomized, multi-center, international clinical study is designed to confirm the safety and effectiveness of the Aveir LP System in a subject population indicated for a VVI(R) pacemaker.
This is a prospective, open-label, multi-center, single-arm study to be conducted at up to 20 investigational sites. The Study plans to enroll up to 140 subjects with severe emphysema and collateral ventilation in the target lobe. This protocol is designed to evaluate the utility of the AeriSeal System to occlude collateral air channels in a target lung lobe with collateral ventilation (CV) and convert the target lung lobe to having little to no collateral ventilation. Subjects can then receive Zephyr Valves to achieve atelectasis in the targeted lobe, once AeriSeal has converted the CV+ lobe to a CV- one. Therefore, the study will have two Stages: • Stage 1 will address the closure of the lobar fissure gaps (or collateral air channels) to block collateral ventilation (CV) with the AeriSeal System; conversion of the CV+ target lobe to CV-. Conversion of collateral ventilation will be evaluated by Chartis after 45 days. In the case of unsuccessful conversion, a second treatment of AeriSeal may be attempted, provided that the total application volume from both the initial and the repeat treatments does not exceed 40 mL in up to three (3) segments. Clinical Assessments post-AeriSeal will be conducted at 28 and 45 days after first treatment and repeated after the second treatment, if applicable. For the purpose of protocol follow-up, the Day 45 post-AeriSeal final treatment will equal Day 0 for Stage 2. • Stage 2 will include successfully converted subjects; CV+ to CV- conversion in Stage 1. Converted CV- target lobes will follow standard of care and receive CE marked Zephyr Endobronchial valves per the Zephyr IFU to perform bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR). Clinical assessments will be conducted at 45 Days, 3-months, 6-months, and 12-months post-Zephyr Valve procedure.
The aim is to investigate the impact of prostate and colorectal cancer on mitochondrial quantity and quality along with muscle mass and function and whether this can be modified through the use of a home-based short-term exercise training program. The investigators aim to recruit participants awaiting curative surgery for colorectal and prostate cancer and to assess the variation in baseline mitochondrial activity between them. Participants from both cancer types will then carry out a 4 week home exercise program, this will be randomly allocated to either resistance-based or high-intensity interval training based. Participants will then be re-assessed on the day of their planned surgical procedure to assess the changes effected by the training program. The investigators hypothesize that there will be variation in mitochondrial activity linked to muscle mass across the two cancer types and that home-based exercise programs have the ability to improve mitochondrial activity along with muscle mass.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of teclistamab at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D).
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pridopidine 45mg twice daily (BID) in patients with early stage manifest Huntington Disease (HD).
