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.
Evaluation of the histologically proven adenoma and carcinoma detection rate in patients undergoing a full colonoscopy with and without mucosal contrast enhancement, obtained with 200 mg of Methylene Blue MMX® tablets.
Abdominal obesity and type-2 Diabetes are associated with chronic liver disorders resulting from the accumulation of fat in the liver (steatosis), which may progress towards hepatitis and possibly lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer. NAFLD (Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease) is considered as the most common form of chronic liver disease in adults in the United States, Australia, Asia and Europe. In the USA, the estimated prevalence of NAFLD is 20-30% of the adult population. Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) is a progressing form of NAFLD, which corresponds to hepatic steatosis associated with inflammation and liver cell injury upon microscopic examination of a liver biopsy. This condition may lead to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis and deserves serious medical management. Up to now, there is no effective drug which has clearly demonstrated therapeutic efficacy which may help lifestyle and dietary recommendations in the resolution of NASH. In this context, GENFIT is developing a new liver targeted drug candidate, GFT505, for the treatment of NASH and the reduction of multiple cardiometabolic risk factors associated with the metabolic syndrome and type 2 Diabetes. This phase IIb study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of GFT505 80mg and 120mg once daily for 52 weeks on the reversal of NASH without worsening of fibrosis, based on liver biopsy assessments.
EUROPAIN Survey is an epidemiological study aimed at assessing current clinical practices regarding the use of sedative and analgesic drugs in newborns admitted to NICUs or PICUs in different countries in Europe. This study is conducted as part of the NeoOpiod study. The main objective of this study is to determine the current clinical practices regarding the use of sedative and analgesic drugs in newborns in intensive units in different countries in Europe. The principal criteria are: the frequency of ventilated neonates receiving sedation and analgesia, the medications used for sedation and analgesia in ventilated neonates, the length of use of medications administered for sedation and analgesia in ventilated neonates and similarities and differences in sedation and analgesia practices among European countries. The secondary objectives are: a) to determine the proportion of neonatal units that have developed and implemented local written guidelines to provide continuous sedation and analgesia in ventilated newborn infants as well as to prevent and treat procedural pain, b) to document the published guidelines for neonatal analgesia and sedation in different European countries and develop consensus for common European standards that can be applied in all medical settings, c) to determine the frequency of use of pain assessment tools in ventilated newborn infants and evaluate their impact on pain management practices and d) to determine practices to assess and prevent withdrawal syndromes. The EUROPAIN STUDY is observational and therefore it will not interfere with routine practices of participating units. No changes in diagnostic, therapeutic or any managing strategy of patients are imposed by the participation in this study. This epidemiological study will only collect data on clinical practices in each unit. It will include all neonates up to a corrected age of 44 weeks post conception. The maximum duration of data collection for every included infant is 28 days. Data collection will stop before 28 days if the infant leaves the unit (discharge, death, transfer to another hospital). Data will be entered on a secure web-based questionnaire.
The purpose of the I-TEAM project is to assess whether there is a change in visual function and status of the retina after a year of intervention in subjects with early signs of Age-related Macular Degeneration.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of abrilumab on induction of remission in adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis after 8 weeks of treatment as assessed by a total Mayo Score ≤ 2 points, with no individual subscore > 1 point.
A study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an FAI insert for the management of subjects with non-infectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment of the eye.
A-PREDICT is a study of axitinib in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma unsuitable for nephrectomy (as judged by the treating clinician) to evaluate efficacy, safety, toxicity and changes in biomarkers during therapy. Axitinib will given twice daily by mouth according to tolerability of treatment, for as long as patients are deriving clinical benefit. Blood and tumour tissue samples will be taken prior to and during therapy to evaluate biomarkers of treatment response. The primary clinical objective of this study is to define the activity of axitinib given to patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma unsuitable for nephrectomy.
This is a multicenter, open-label, first-time-in-human study with a standard 3+3 dose-escalation phase in participants with advanced solid tumors followed by an expansion phase in participants with advanced solid tumors. An exploration cohort has been added to determine the safety using every 4 weeks (Q4W) dosing.
'Off periods' where people with Parkinson's disease are slow, stiff and unable to function are disabling, and a treatment which can converts people to a "on", good, able to function state would be extremely useful. We assessed safety, tolerability and efficacy of inhaled dry powder apomorphine (VR040) in a clinic-based study in this setting.
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label trial of pimasertib versus dacarbazine aimed to confirm the activity of pimasertib in previously untreated subjects with N-Ras mutated locally advanced or metastatic malignant cutaneous melanoma by comparing the progression-free survival (PFS) of subjects treated with either pimasertib or dacarbazine and by getting a better understanding of the efficacy, safety, pharmacogenomics (PGx) and their relationship with pimasertib exposure.
