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.
This study aims to compare the efficacy of vericiguat versus placebo on change in n-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) from baseline to Week 16. The primary hypothesis is Vericiguat is superior to placebo in reducing NT-proBNP at Week 16.
The purpose of this small-scale exploratory study is to bridge the knowledge gap between the bench testing and the design of potential future confirmative studies. Identifying and evaluating MicroEMG measurement parameters in this exploratory manner is a necessary step to evaluate its usability and design, and determine whether the microEMG system may be suitable for in-house use after further confirmative testing.
Crohn's disease (CD) is an inflammatory bowel disease causing chronic transmural inflammation followed by intestinal complications including strictures and penetrating lesions such as fistulas and abscesses. 30-50% of the CD patients will require surgery during the course of their disease. Unfortunately, resection is not curative and endoscopically recurrent lesions (i.e. endoscopic recurrence) are observed in 65-90% of patients within 12 months, and in 80-100% within 3 years after the operation. Eventually 15-20% of patients will require new surgery within 5 years. Close monitoring for postoperative recurrence is therefore needed to perform early intervention and prevent clinical recurrence and need for re-surgery. Endoscopy is the gold standard to assess postoperative disease recurrence however it's limited by its invasiveness. Cross sectional imaging is known for accurate detection of postoperative recurrence. Intestinal ultrasound (IUS) of the colon and (neo)terminal ileum correlates well with CT, MRE and colonoscopy findings in the postoperative setting. IUS is non-invasive, cheap, readily available and may show early, signs of disease recurrence. Therefore it could be a useful tool to predict endoscopic recurrence at 6 months.
A study to evaluate the effect of abelacimab relative to placebo on the rate of ischemic stroke or systemic embolism (SE) in patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF) who have been deemed by their responsible physicians or by their own decision to be unsuitable for oral anticoagulation therapy.
Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of two administrations of COMP360 in participants with treatment-resistant depression (TRD)
REGENERATE-COBRA will examine whether autologous stem cell treatment can improve angina symptoms and quality of life for patients with refractory angina. Patients will be randomised (randomly allocated with a 50:50 chance) to either the 'treatment' or the 'sham' group - they will not know which group they are in. In the 'treatment' group: - Stem cells will be collected from bone marrow in the patient's hip under local anaesthetic (a bone marrow aspiration). - Under local anaesthetic, the stem cells will be infused into the arteries that supply blood to the heart through a small tube inserted either in the wrist or the groin. - The follow-up involves a phone call at 1 month and 12 months and clinic visit at 6 months. In the 'sham' group: - A sham bone marrow aspiration is performed - a 3mm nick in the skin will be made under local anaesthetic. - A sham cell infusion is performed - a small tube is inserted either in the wrist or groin under local anaesthetic. - The follow-up involves a phone call at 1 month and 12 months and clinic visit at 6 months.
A migraine is a moderate to severe headache on one side of the head. A migraine attack is a headache that may be accompanied by throbbing, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, or other symptoms. A number of treatments are available for adults with migraine but there are limited approved treatments available for pediatric participants. The main goal of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy (how well treatment works) of a low-dose and high-dose of atogepant in pediatric participants between the ages of 6 and 17. Atogepant is a medicine currently approved to treat adults with episodic migraine (0 to 14 migraine days per month) and is being studied in pediatric participants between the ages of 6 and 17 with a history of episodic migraine. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind study of atogepant in participants with a history of episodic migraine with an open-label pharmacokinetic substudy. Eligible participants will be randomized into 6 different groups. Participants between the ages of 12 and 17 will be randomized to receive placebo, low-dose atogepant, or high-dose atogepant for 12 weeks. Participants between the ages of 6 and 11 will also be randomized to receive placebo, low-dose atogepant, or high-dose atogepant for 12 weeks. The specific atogepant doses to be used in participants between the ages of 6 and 11 will be determined after the PK substudy is complete. Around 450 participants will be enrolled in approximately 100 sites. Placebo, low-dose atogepant, and high-dose atogepant are given as a tablet to take by mouth once a day. At the end of Week 12, participants will either undergo a follow-up visit 4 weeks after last study treatment or join an extension study where they can continue to receive atogepant for another 52 weeks. There may be a bigger responsibility for participants in this study. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effects of treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects, and completing questionnaires.
This study aims to test the feasibility and acceptability of home-based motor-motor dual-task training and motor-cognitive dual-task training interventions, and balance-related outcome measures which may be used in an anticipated future randomized control trial intended to determine the superiority of these dual-task training interventions.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of using bacterial lysate in bronchiolitis. The main question it aims to answer are: Does the use of bacterial lysate after bronchiolitis reduce the likelihood of preschool wheeze Participants will take either the active medicine or a placebo for 24 months.
The goal of this feasibility study is to learn about dose de-escalation in the treatment of men with intermediate risk prostate cancer. The main question it aims to answer is the technical feasibility of treating prostate cancer with toxicity-minimising radiotherapy on an Magnetic Resonance Linear Accelerator (MR-linac). It will also examine gastrointestinal and genitourinary toxicity in the acute and late setting post radiotherapy as well as Prostate-Specific antigen (PSA) control up until 2 years post treatment. Participants will be treated with radiotherapy to the prostate with which will be given in 30Gy in 5 fractions to the whole prostate and 45Gy in 5 fractions to the dominant lesion.
