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.
LIFT is prospective randomised marker-based trial to assess the clinical utility and safety of biomarker-guided immunosuppression withdrawal in liver transplantation. 'LIFT' aims to validate a biomarker test of operational tolerance to stratify liver transplant recipients before withdrawing immunosuppressive medication. Primary objective is clinical utility and risk/benefit ratio of employing a transcriptional test of tolerance to stratify liver recipients prior to immunosuppression withdrawal. Secondary objectives are: safety of biomarker-guided immunosuppression withdrawal; health-economic and quality of life impact of biomarker-guided immunosuppression withdrawal; improvement in drug-related co-morbidities; prevalence of tolerance over time; role of donor-specific anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies; identify mechanisms of liver allograft tolerance. It is a prospective, multi-centre, phase IV, biomarker-strategy design trial with a randomized control group in which adult liver transplant recipients will undergo immunosuppression withdrawal. The sample size is 148 patients.
The purpose of the study is to collect and assess long term data on the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of pridopidine in patients with Huntington's disease (HD).
The study is based on a multi-center approach of needle based confocal laser endomicroscopy (nCLE) combined with endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) to evaluate pancreatic cystic lesions (PCL), in order to obtain a correct histopathological diagnosis.After detection of PCL, certain morphological EUS features allow the discrimination of specific cyst types. Additionally, EUS-FNA is recommended as the first-line procedure whenever pathological diagnosis is required; however the procedure has its drawbacks, mainly represented by the relatively low negative predictive value in diagnosing pancreatic cancer. In this case a more precisely diagnostic tool is required; the potential role of CLE has been explored in gastrointestinal (GI) pathology showing good accuracy for predicting the final histopathological diagnosis based on immediate evaluation of tissue and vascular patterns. Although the clinical impact of nCLE for the decision making algorithms in cystic pancreatic neoplasm has not yet been described, the hypothesis is that EUS-nCLE could allow targeted tissue sampling of cystic pancreatic neoplasms resulting in more accurate diagnosis. The aim of the study is to describe the clinical impact of nCLE for the clinical decision management algorithm based on EUS, EUS-FNA and/or EUS-CLE imaging criteria for cystic pancreatic neoplasms, while evaluating also the feasibility and safety of nCLE examination.
Investigation of pharmacological effects, drug blood levels and safety of an intrauterine system releasing the study drug BAY1007626 in comparison to Mirena and Jaydess in healthy young women treated for 90 days to determine the drug dose for further development
The purpose of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, and safety of rVIIa-FP (CSL689). The study will enroll approximately 54 male subjects, 12 to 65 years of age, with hemophilia types A or B who have developed inhibitors to FVIII or FIX. The study consists of 3 sequential parts (Parts 1, 2, 3): The purpose of Part 1 (PK part) is to evaluate the PK of a single treatment of CSL689 (low dose or high dose) and compare with the PK of a single treatment of Eptacog alfa (low dose or high dose). In Part 1, CSL689 and Eptacog alfa will be given by the doctor at the study center. The purpose of Part 2 (Dose-evaluation part) is to identify which of the 2 tested dose levels of CSL689 shows the best efficacy and safety in stopping acute bleeding events (this dose will be called the "population best dose"). The purpose of the final Part 3 (Repeated-dose part) is to confirm the efficacy and safety of the "population best dose" identified in Part 2. In Parts 2 and 3, subjects will self-administer a specified number of CSL689 infusions at home on-demand (ie, when a bleeding event occurs), will keep an electronic diary, and will visit the center at monthly intervals. This study is expected to last for up to 16 months for the subjects participating in all 3 parts, and up to 9 months for the subjects participating in Part 3 only.
This study is looking at the feasibility of performing frailty assessments on elderly patients with advanced cancers
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) pertuzumab in participants with hormone-refractory prostate cancer who have had no previous chemotherapy. Participants will be enrolled in two stages, the first (Cohort A) at a lower 420-mg dose and the second (Cohort B) at a higher 1050-mg dose based upon observations in Cohort A. Up to 50 participants may enter either cohort, for a total enrollment between 46 and 73 participants across 9 study centers.
The primary objective of this study is to characterize the long term (ie, 96 weeks of follow up) bone safety profile of open-label tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (tenofovir DF) treatment in CHB-infected adolescents. This includes prospectively evaluating and comparing the bone mineral density (BMD) change between CHB-infected adolescents 12 to < 18 years of age treated with tenofovir DF in European treatment centers who are assigned to one of two schedules for renal and bone laboratory monitoring and BMD measurement.
This study seeks to better characterize relationships between visual function and the progression (worsening) of geographic atrophy (GA) due to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The study is also intended to generate new information on the relationship between genetics and GA progression. This is a global, prospective, multicenter, epidemiologic study enrolling participants with GA secondary to AMD. The study visits are scheduled to occur every 6 months. The anticipated duration of the study is up to 48 months. There is a planned interim analysis around the 2-year time window for the study.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of monthly doses of aducanumab in slowing cognitive and functional impairment as measured by changes in the Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) score as compared with placebo in participants with early AD. Secondary objectives are to assess the effect of monthly doses of aducanumab as compared with placebo on clinical progression as measured by Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), AD Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (13 items) [ADAS-Cog 13], and AD Cooperative Study-Activities of Daily Living Inventory (Mild Cognitive Impairment version) [ADCS-ADL-MCI].
