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 evaluates the T3 implant system for the preservation of alveolar crestal bone and the establishment of initial integration. The new surface-treated features of the implant may contribute to improved soft and hard tissue healing. The success rate of the T3 implant will be no different than that of the control implant, which possess similar geometry but different surface treatments.
This is a 2-part study in patients with advanced solid tumours. Part A will investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of AZD9291 in patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment compared to patients with normal hepatic function; Part B will allow any patient with mild or moderate hepatic impairment or normal hepatic function, who completes Part A, continued access to AZD9291 after the PK phase and will provide additional safety data.
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) is a group of relapsing and remitting gut inflammatory conditions acquired due to genetic susceptibility and/or environmental triggers. The disease manifestations are being increasingly seen in young children and the life-long debilitation has a severe effect on quality of life. Limited evidence suggests, although rare, in some young IBD individuals vascular complications may ensue. This leads to increased risk of vascular problems such as thrombosis, arterial disease and stroke. In the present project we aim to study and highlight potential vascular changes in young Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) patients and compare these changes with age and gender matched controls. Vasculature will be measured in multiple ways including blood analysis in the laboratory and non-invasive, physiological measures of arterial health (e.g. ultrasound arterial scan). Our overall goal is to identify biomarkers indicative of increased risk of vascular dysfunction as this will open new avenues for early therapeutic intervention.
AMD (Age Related Macular Degeneration) is the leading cause of severe visual loss and blindness registration in the UK . It is a disease which affects the retina (the nerve and blood vessel network at the back of the eye responsible for vision). Patients can suffer with severe visual loss and have difficulties with every day tasks such as recognising faces, reading & driving. There are two variations of the disease, a 'dry' type & a 'wet' type also known as neovascular AMD (nAMD). In wet/nAMD new vessels grow from the blood supply underneath the retina, in part due to higher than normal levels of a protein called Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF). Since the introduction of drugs which block VEGF, visual outcomes for patients with wAMD have dramatically improved. There are 2 widely used treatments; ranibizumab and aflibercept. Whilst the majority of patients have a successful outcome with treatment, many patients experience suboptimal response. This study evaluated if these patients experience a benefit from a switch to a different antiVEGF drug treatment. In this study nAMD patients who are showing no or poor to response to treatment with aflibercept were switched to ranibizumab to assess if there is any benefit in terms of treatment outcomes. Patients visited the hospital clinic 8 times over the 7 - 8 month study period. Monthly ranibizumab injections were given for the first 3 months, then monthly as required for the next 3 months.
The study hypothesis is that SC abatacept is safe and shows evidence of efficacy (improvement in modified Rodnan score [mRSS]) in patients with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcScc) compared to matching placebo.
The primary aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of conducting a trial to investigate the effectiveness of a physical activity intervention (physical activity consultation and a pedometer-based walking programme) versus pulmonary rehabilitation in improving physical activity in COPD. Objectives are: (i) to assess the feasibility (patient recruitment, adherence, drop-outs and adverse events) of delivering a physical activity intervention in the COPD patient population versus pulmonary rehabilitation; (ii) to explore users perceptions relating to satisfaction and benefits of a physical activity intervention versus pulmonary rehabilitation; (iii) to investigate between and within group change in physical activity, exercise capacity, quality of life, self-efficacy and changes in the transtheoretical model with the physical activity intervention versus pulmonary rehabilitation; and (iv) to examine the cost of delivering a physical activity intervention versus pulmonary rehabilitation for patients with COPD. The hypothesis for this study is that it will be feasible to conduct a trial that will investigate the effectiveness of a physical activity intervention (physical activity consultation and a pedometer-based walking programme) compared to pulmonary rehabilitation for improving physical activity in COPD. The study will provide important information about interventions designed to promote and maintain physical activity, improve patient outcomes and increase patients' choice relating to exercise and physical activity interventions. It will provide a rationale and data for an adequately powered clinical trial evaluating the effects of a physical activity intervention.
This study will evaluate real world pattern of use of BOTOX® in actual clinical practice in patients with idiopathic overactive bladder (iOAB) with urinary incontinence whose symptoms have not been adequately managed by oral anticholinergic therapy.
The purpose is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of ISIS-APO(a)Rx given to participants with high lipoprotein(a) for 12 weeks.
This is a long-term, open-label study with a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized drug withdrawal period in children with Alagille Syndrome (ALGS) designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LUM001 (Also known as maralixibat or MRX).
