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.
A phase Ib, open-label platform study of select drug combinations chosen in order to characterize safety and tolerability of each treatment arm tested and to identify recommended doses and regimens for future studies.
This is a 48-month observational, prospective, multicentre study. The overall aim of the study is to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of Elocta treatment on joint health in patients treated prophylactically with Elocta in a real-world setting.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of H3B-6545 and palbociclib when administered in combination in order to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of this combination in women with advanced or metastatic estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) HER2- breast cancer.
The primary objective of the study is to characterize the patients who initiate treatment for asthma with DUPIXENT® in a real-world setting to understand the attributes of treated patients in real life. This includes characterization of: - Patient demographics (eg, gender, age, and race) - Patient baseline characteristics (eg, prior medications and procedures, medical history, asthma history, weight, height) The secondary objectives of the study are: - To characterize real-world use patterns of DUPIXENT® for asthma - To assess the long-term effectiveness of DUPIXENT® in asthma patients in a real-world setting - To assess effectiveness on comorbid type 2 inflammatory conditions in asthma patients treated with DUPIXENT® - To collect long-term safety data on study participants in the real-world setting
This study compares "contrast specific imaging setting" images with "left ventricular opacification (LVO)" images taken on the same group of patients at different points in time, to see if one is more effective at assessing the function of the heart.
A substance called integrin alpha v beta six (αvβ6) is found to be increased in some cancer cells and can play an important role in the development and spread of cancer. If the levels of integrin αvβ6 in cancer cells can be measured by carrying out PET scans, we might be able to identify and potentially treat tumours. FBA-A20FMDV2 is a substance that binds or sticks to integrin αvβ6. It may therefore be possible to find and measure the amount of integrin αvβ6 in tumours. To do this a small amount of radioactivity will be attached to FBA-A20FMDV2 and carry out a scan called a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan. FBA-A20FMDV2 attached to radioactivity is known as [18F]FBA-A20FMDV2 or a radiotracer, as a very small amount of tracer dose is given to humans. So far such scans have been carried out in healthy volunteers and in patients with a lung condition called idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This was to assess the safety of the radiotracer and how it is taken up in the body. However, such scans have not been performed in cancer patients. This study will help specifically investigate αvβ6 in patients with cancer and find out how [18F]FBA-A20FMDV2 is taken up in tumours. With this information, the ideal imaging method for patients with cancer can be developed.
KISS study is an investigator-initiated, multi-centre, prospective, randomized (1:1), parallel, two-arm, non-inferiority trial aiming to compare two bifurcation PCI procedures for Side Branch protection
The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of gene therapy in boys with DMD. It is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with two thirds of participants assigned to gene therapy. The one third of participants who are randomized to the placebo arm will have an opportunity for treatment with gene therapy at the beginning of the second year.
This is the open-label extension study of phase II ARGX-113-1802 to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the subcutaneous formulation of efgartigimod in adults with CIDP. Patients already stabilized on efgartigimod PH20 SC will also have the opportunity to participate in a sub study to explore less frequent dosing of efgartigimod PH20 SC.
Every year nearly 62,000 people are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK. One in eight women in the UK will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. The investigators are developing an inexpensive test to accurately predict how breast cancer patients will respond to the standard chemotherapy Anthracycline (AC). Only 15-20% of patients have no tumour remaining following AC, so a method of treatment selection is urgently needed. Breast cancers are currently treated with a combination of chemotherapy, targeted therapy and surgery. However, breast cancers are not identical; each tumour's individual characteristics affect how they respond to treatment. Recently the investigators discovered a new tumour characteristic, a protein which is unusually active in approximately 20% of breast cancers. It was found that a patient whose tumour showed high activity often respond well to AC, and vice versa. AC is an aggressive treatment which can potentially cause severe side effects, including a risk of permanent heart damage. It is important, therefore, to spare those patients who will not benefit from AC the physical and emotional side-effects of this drug. Currently, there is no predictive test for selecting which patients will benefit from AC and which will not. The investigators have shown that an accurate prediction can be made by testing the activity of a protein called 'SPerm associated AntiGen 5' (SPAG5) in tumour tissue. The aim is to develop a clinical SPAG5 testing kit that can be used by hospital laboratories to determine the activity of SPAG5 in the tumour. This information will help guide the choice of treatment and achieve better patient outcomes. In June 2018 the investigators started a three year National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) funded project to develop a lab test that could form the basis of a SPAG5 testing kit.
