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.
Recently, an uncalibrated minimally invasive Pulse-code Modulator (PCM) has been developed: the MostCare system. This monitoring system is powered by Pressure Recording Analytical Method (PRAM), which is based on the mathematical analysis of the arterial pressure profile changes. It allows beat-to-beat Stroke Volume (SV) assessment from the pressure signal recorded invasively in radial, brachial, or femoral arteries. The most innovative features of this method are: 1) the lack of a calibration requirement, 2) the analysis of the arterial wave signal is performed at 1000 Hz, 3) a dedicated arterial catheter-transducer is unnecessary. MostCare is powered by PRAM (Pressure Recording Analytical Method) algorithm. The investigators primary end-point was to evaluate the relationship between Cardiac Output (CO) measured by MostCare with CO calculated with Echo-Doppler in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients under different clinical conditions. As a secondary end-point the investigators evaluated the relationship between CO measured by MostCare with CO obtained with thermodilution techniques (standard bolus thermodilution or transpulmonary thermodilution, i.e. PiCCO system). This is a prospective multicentre observational study.
This is the first human treatment with PRX-102, an enzyme being developed as a long-term enzyme replacement therapy in patients with a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease (alpha galactosidase deficiency). The safety, tolerability, and exploratory efficacy will be evaluated in this study of increasing doses. Patients will be treated with infusions every two weeks for 12 months.
The primary objective of the study is to confirm that at least 1 or more doses of telotristat etiprate compared to placebo is effective in reducing the number of daily bowel movements (BMs) from baseline averaged over the 12-week double-blind portion (Treatment Period) of the trial in patients not adequately controlled by current SSA therapy.
This Phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of RO4602522 in participants with moderate severity Alzheimer's disease. Participants who are taking background therapy of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEI) alone or in combination with memantine for at least 4 months before screening will be randomized to receive either one of two doses of RO4602522 or placebo for 12 months.
This was a 2-part, Phase I/IIa, multi-center, open label, study in pediatric and adolescent patients with advanced BRAF V600 mutation-positive solid tumors. Part 1 was a dose escalation study in patients with any BRAF V600 mutation-positive solid tumor using a modified Rolling 6 Design (RSD). Part 2 was an expansion study to further evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of dabrafenib in 4 tumor-specific pediatric populations. Patients participated in only either part 1 or part 2 of the study.
The purpose of this study is to determine if ganetespib (STA-9090) is effective in the treatment of patients with HER2+ or triple negative breast cancer who have not received prior systemic treatment in the metastatic setting.
Incretins have become a successful drug target in the repertoire of medications used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. However little is known about a potential benefit of GLP-1 on the vascular system in humans, independent of their glucose lowering actions and data are only derived from ex vivo studies in animals. Particularly little is known about clinically relevant benefits of GLP-1 and its analogues on the microvascular system of individuals with type 2 diabetes. The vascular effect could be medicated by endogenous GLP-1 (9,36) amide, the breakdown product of GLP-1 (7,36) amide which has a low affinity for the GLP-1 receptor. The investigators hypothesis is that the co-administration of DPP-IV inhibitors will lack the beneficial effects of GLP-1 on the vascular system as GLP-1 (9,36) amide will not be produced by the body. The study aims to examine the response of GLP-1 and its analogues on small blood vessels and examine the effect of the addition of DPP-IV inhibition in healthy lean individuals, obese individuals and subjects with Type 2 diabetes.
The primary purpose of this registry is to obtain "real world" clinical use of contact force measurements during ablation procedures.
This study is intended to collect data regarding the clinical utility, safety and performance of the Medtronic CoreValve® System for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) in patients with severe symptomatic aortic valve stenosis for which treatment via direct aortic access (DA) is selected.
This study will collect blood and sputum (phlegm) samples from subjects with asthma, smokers and normal healthy subjects, to compare the biological markers of disease and inflammation.
