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 is a phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of GSK1070806 in subjects undergoing renal transplantation. GSK1070806 is an anti-interleukin 18 (IL18) monoclonal antibody, which binds to IL-18 and inhibits signaling through the IL-18 receptor. Recipients of donor kidneys, retrieved after circulatory death of the donor, will be administered a single intravenous infusion of GSK1070806 to test whether inhibition of IL-18 can reduce the rate of Delayed Graft Function (DGF) and graft rejection. Subjects will be followed for 12 months post dose/transplant. Up to 40 adult subjects will be enrolled in this study.
To determine whether the combination of gemcitabine/carboplatin with hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is associated with an improved clinical outcome (progression free and overall survival) compared with chemotherapy alone in patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC)
This study is in two parts and will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of escalating single intravenous (IV) doses of ocrelizumab compared with placebo in combination with methotrexate in participants with moderate to severe RA. Part 1 is the dose-escalation study, at one of the following dose levels of ocrelizumab [400, 1000, 1500, and 2000 milligrams (mg)]. In Part 2, participants will be randomized to explore tolerability and efficacy of doses which have been shown to be tolerated in Part 1.
This is a Phase 3, open-label, international, multi-center, efficacy, and safety study of avelumab in combination with and/or following platinum-based chemotherapy. Eligible patients must have previously untreated, histologically confirmed Stage III-IV epithelial ovarian (EOC), fallopian tube cancer (FTC), or primary peritoneal cancer (PPC) and be candidates for platinum-based chemotherapy. The primary purpose of the study is to demonstrate if avelumab given as single agent in the maintenance setting following frontline chemotherapy or in combination with carboplatin/paclitaxel is superior to platinum-based chemotherapy alone followed by observation in this population of newly diagnosed ovarian cancer patients.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of PEGylated Recombinant Human Hyaluronidase (PEGPH20) combined with nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine (PAG treatment), compared with placebo combined with nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine (AG treatment), in participants with hyaluronan (HA)-high Stage IV previously untreated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA).
This trial is to establish whether ultrafiltration by peritoneal dialysis is a clinically effective treatment for patients with severe heart failure and moderate chronic kidney disease, thus improving quality of life and symptoms.
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is an exercise program tailored for patients with chronic lung disease that is a core part of the management of patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Many COPD patients develop low oxygen levels (desaturation) during exercise and this is often discovered when they are being evaluated for PR. Current practice is to administer oxygen to COPD patients with exercise-induced desaturation, but this is based on very limited evidence. This limited evidence relates to a short-term increase in exercise capacity and it is not known if this translates into longer term increases in activity or whether providing these patients with oxygen improves outcomes after PR. In addition it is not known if patients given ambulatory oxygen continue to use it after completing PR. Evidence for a beneficial effect of oxygen would provide a more solid evidence base for its use. Conversely demonstration of no effect would allow reassessment of the use of oxygen and whether the costs are justified. Therefore the aims of this study are to assess the effects of oxygen on outcomes from PR and assess the usage of ambulatory oxygen following completion of PR.
National guidelines advocate the use of paracetamol in conjunction with strong opioids for cancer pain, despite a lack of evidence for its efficacy. Work is needed to examine the analgesic benefit of paracetamol in this large patient group. The investigators aim to establish if paracetamol in combination with strong opioids provides superior analgesia for cancer related pain over strong opioids alone.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the effect of Elafibranor treatment compared to placebo on 1) histological improvement and 2) all-cause mortality and liver-related outcomes in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and fibrosis.
The purpose of this study is to confirm that the pharmacokinetics of ibrutinib in pediatric participants is consistent with that in adults (part 1) and to assess efficacy (event-free survival [EFS]) of ibrutinib in combination with rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide (RICE) or rituximab, vincristine, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and idarubicin (RVICI) background therapy compared to RICE or RVICI background therapy alone (part 2).
