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 this study is to assess whether normal endothelial function in patients with Atrial Fibrillation undergoing ablation procedure increases the chances of a favorable clinical outcome and maintaining sinus rhythm following ablation
The investigators are interested in studying how Pulmonary Hypertension occurs. A substance called 'apelin', that naturally occurs in the body has been shown to have an important role in heart disease. Previous studies have shown that it can make blood vessels get wider, and help blood flow around the body and thus improve the way the heart and lungs work. The investigators are looking to recruit both healthy and COPD pulmonary hypertension patients to study 3 types of apelin. The purpose of this study is to help the investigators understand how Pulmonary Hypertension occurs which may will help with the development of future treatments.
This study aims to assess the effect of glucagon-like peptide-1 on cardiac output and transpulmonary gradient in patients undergoing right heart catheterisation for clinical reasons.
This trial is conducted in Africa, North and South America, Asia and Europe. The purpose of the trial is to compare the effect of once-weekly dosing of two dose levels of semaglutide versus insulin glargine once-daily on glycaemic control after 30 weeks of treatment in insulin-naïve subjects with type 2 diabetes.
This study will test whether a drug called BKM120/buparlisib is a safe and effective treatment when given to lung cancer patients having radiotherapy treatment. The trial will identify which of three possible doses of buparlisib is best to give with lung radiotherapy.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of intravenous (IV) ALXN1007 in persistently antiphospholipid (aPL)-positive patients with at least 1 of the following non-criteria manifestations of APS: aPL-nephropathy, skin ulcers and/or thrombocytopenia.
Ischaemic heart disease is the most common cause of death in the UK. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) has been demonstrated to protect the heart when it is deprived of blood supply (ischaemia). The mechanism for this protection is not clear. Similar protection occurs with ischaemic conditioning of the heart, which is dependent on potassium channel opening. The investigators intend to establish whether GLP-1 mediated protection shares a similar mechanistic pathway. In order to do this the investigators will measures pressure--volume loops generated in the main pumping chamber of the heart at the time of a percutaneous coronary intervention (stenting). Patients will be allocated to GLP-1 alone, GLP-1 with glibenclamide (a potassium channel blocking medication approved for human use), saline control or glibenclamide alone. The investigators hypothesis is that the effect of GLP-1 will be abrogated by use of glibenclamide.
The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dose of CHF 5259 (glycopyrrolate bromide) on top of Foster which provides the optimal additive bronchodilator effect to asthmatic patients whose symptoms are uncontrolled with medium dose of inhaled corticosteroids plus long acting beta2 agonists.
The purposes of this study are to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a single dose of REGN1908-1909 in allergic adult participants, to collect information about how much REGN1908-1909 is in blood over time and to collect information about how the body reacts to REGN1908-1909.
This is an open-label, single-arm, multicentre, global, phase II study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZD6094 in patients with papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC) who are treatment naïve or previously treated. An independent central pathology review of tumour samples will be used to confirm the diagnosis of PRCC of all patients enrolling. However, locally available pathology results confirming PRCC will be allowed for timely study entry.
