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 evaluate whether treatment with ISIS CRP Rx can reduce AF (Atrial Fibrillation) burden (percentage of time spent in AF) in subjects with paroxysmal AF
The purpose of this study is to determine whether baricitinib is superior to placebo in the treatment of participants with moderately to severely active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) who have had an inadequate response to methotrexate (MTX) treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether high-fat meals rich in palmitic acid in the sn-2 position decrease lipaemia in men aged 40-70 y with higher than optimal fasting triacylglycerol concentrations.
Many viral infections of global importance, including HIV, are transmitted across the mucosal surface of the genital tract. As immunity against these infections is likely to be primarily mediated by antibodies in mucosal secretions, developing techniques to increase the levels and persistence of antiviral antibody on mucosal surfaces may enhance the protection against a number of important infections. Preclinical studies have anatomically targeted vaccine antigens to sites where genital tract immunity is induced. This response is likely due to the ability of regional lymph Preclinical studies have anatomically targeted vaccine antigens to sites where genital tract immunity is induced. This response is likely due to the ability of regional lymph nodes to "pattern" the cell surface markers of responding vaccine specific lymphocytes with homing markers. In contrast, injecting a distant muscle (such as in the arm) which shares no anatomical relationship with the vagina, may not pattern cells with homing markers for the genital tract. Direct injection of inguinal lymph nodes is impractical in humans but intramuscular injection into the thigh will target antigens to the deep inguinal lymph nodes shared in common with the cervix/vagina. This study will be a Phase IV randomised, single centre, open label, laboratory assessment blinded exploratory trial to assess mucosal immunogenicity following three targeted intramuscular immunisations with TicoVac vaccine. 20 subjects will be randomised to each of2 groups immunised in right deltoid or right anterolateral thigh. Following an initial screening visit subjects will be immunised at 0, 1 and 6 months. There will be follow up visits 5 days after each immunisation and a final visit at 7 months. Blood samples and cervicovaginal secretions will be taken prior to each immunisation for immunological measures. In addition, blood samples will be taken at each immunisation and follow up visit for measurement of peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The study is funded by ADITEC, which is a collaborative research programme that aims to accelerate the development of novel and powerful immunisation technologies for the next generation of human vaccines.
The ways in which influenza is transmitted between people are uncertain; for example, we do not know if large droplets or fine particles (aerosols) matter most; both are produced by coughing and sneezing. This means we cannot say what precautions work best in real life. Improving our understanding is vital to allow the development of guidelines and policies to help reduce the transmission of both pandemic and seasonal flu. The aim of this study is to explore how influenza is spread, specifically by looking at the importance of spread via small particles (aerosols/droplet nuclei) that are carried in respiratory sprays e.g. produced by coughing and sneezing. The primary objective of this study is: To estimate the contribution of aerosols/droplet nuclei to influenza transmission by determining the secondary attack rate (SAR) of influenza in Recipients randomised to a control arm (no intervention - allowing all modes of transmission) compared to Recipients randomised to an intervention arm (face shield and hand hygiene - allowing only transmission by aerosols/droplet nuclei) when both groups of Recipients are exposed to Donor volunteers infected with influenza via intranasal drops. The hypothesis is that: The SAR will be lower in Recipients exposed only to aerosols/droplet nuclei (intervention arm) compared to those exposed to all modes of transmission (the control arm): aerosols/droplet nuclei, droplet spray (larger respiratory droplets) and transmission through contact.
Assessed the efficacy of deferasirox in patients with non-transfusion dependent thalassemia based on change in liver iron concentration from baseline after 52 weeks of treatment. Provided further assessment of the long-term efficacy and safety of deferasirox in NTDT patients with iron overload (LIC ≥ 5 mg Fe/g liver dw and SF ≥ 300 ng/mL) for up to 260 weeks.
This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled, parallel-group, multi-national, multi-center study to compare alirocumab (REGN727/SAR236553) versus ezetimibe in participants with primary hypercholesterolemia and moderate, high, or very high CV risk, who are intolerant to statins. An atorvastatin arm is added to determine that the population selected in the study is a truly statin intolerant population by assessing skeletal muscle-related adverse events.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multi-national study alirocumab (REGN727/SAR236553) in patients with Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (heFH) who are not adequately controlled with their Lipid-Modifying Therapy (LMT).
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CK-2017357 when taken with or without riluzole (also called Rilutek®) in patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
This Phase II study evaluated the safety and efficacy of LDE225 in adult and pediatric patients with Hh-pathway activated, relapsed MB.
