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 is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, open-label, global study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of inavolisib plus fulvestrant compared with alpelisib plus fulvestrant in patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) -negative, PIK3CA-mutated, locally advanced (LA) or metastatic breast cancer (mBC), who progressed during or after cyclin dependent kinase 4/6i (CDK4/6i)-based therapy.
This qualitative nested sub-study will aim to explore how chronic pain (as defined as pain lasting for more than 3 months) impacts older adults' depression and treatment in a brief psychological therapy of behavioral activation (BA)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of pelacarsen (TQJ230) administered subcutaneously once monthly compared to placebo in slowing the progression of calcific aortic valve stenosis.
This is a phase 1b, open label, single arm study evaluating the safety and tolerability of the drug dostarlimab in combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) refractory HIV-associated Kaposi Sarcoma (KS), a rare type of cancer usually seen in people with the HIV infection. Dostarlimab is a type of immunotherapy, and is a monoclonal antibody that has been designed to inhibit the receptor programmed death-1 (PD-1). One of the two ligands for PD-1 has been shown to be upregulated in KS patients, the PDL-1 ligand. By preventing PDL-1 form binding to PD-1, dostarlimab increases the body's immune response to attack more cancer cells. The safety profile of dostarlimab in this specific cancer has not been explored. The primary aim of this study is therefore to provide confirmatory evidence of safety of dostarlimab in KS patients and to preliminary evaluate its effects on HIV reservoirs and assess how it causes its anti-cancer effects through studying tumour tissue before and after treatment. This study will be conducted in two parts and will recruit a total of up to 20 patients. Upon completion of screening investigations inclusive of a fresh tumour biopsy within a 28-days window, patients will receive dostarlimab at the fixed dose of 500 mg dose every 3 weeks for the first 4 doses followed by a fixed 1000 mg dose every 6 weeks. Treatment will be continued until loss of clinical benefit, unacceptable toxicity, patients' withdrawal or completion of a total of 48 weeks of treatment. Part 1 will consist of 6 patients being dosed and observed for toxicity for 21 days following first dose. A trial steering committee will evaluate any treatment related adverse events (AEs) and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) reported before deciding on whether to continue onto part 2, where a further 14 patients may be enrolled.
The 5-year survival for Head and Neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) across all TNM stage groups is approximately 50%. Patients who are present with stage I & II disease have significantly better survival. When a patient presents to their general practitioner (GP) with symptoms suggestive of HNSCC, they may be referred for urgent specialist input through the suspected cancer referral (SCR) pathway, which include dedicated neck lump clinics. HNSCC is known to shed fragments of DNA, called circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) into the bloodstream. The investigators have developed novel ultra-sensitive (>90% sensitivity) next generation sequencing (NGS) assay for circulating HPV DNA in patients with non-metastatic locally advanced head and neck cancer. The use of ultra-sensitive NGS assay for detection of ctDNA using a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) holds a great promise for cancer screening and early diagnosis and can lead to better survival results and less disease burden. With a quicker turnaround (1-2 weeks), the liquid biopsy can help expedite the patient journey through the cancer pathways reducing the incidence of cancer target breaches. In order to design studies to test this hypothesis the investigators require preliminary data quantifying sensitivity and specificity of the assay in this setting.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of tobemstomig alone or in combination with tiragolumab compared with atezolizumab in participants with previously untreated, locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC) who are ineligible to receive a platinum containing chemotherapy.
Annually 100,000 strokes occur, placing stroke as the largest cause of disability in the UK. 90% of strokes are preventable, leading to national focus on programmes including "The National Stroke Programme" to act on preventing, treating, and improving post-stroke care. Importantly, over 25% of ischaemic stroke sufferers have previously had a Transient Ischaemic Attack (TIA), which presents the biggest concern for TIA patients. There are no measures which reliably identify TIA patients most likely to suffer a stroke. Novel biomarkers for predicting stroke are key to addressing this problem. The PREDICT-EV study aims to screen 300 TIA patients and follow them over 12-months. The investigators will determine if a novel biomarker we've identified to increase thrombotic risk (endothelial derived extracellular vesicles) and the resulting increased prothrombin time is associated with patients at highest risk of stroke.
DART is an exploratory molecular analysis study to assess potential early biomarkers of treatment response in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC)
Asthma is a common lung condition that cannot be cured, although usually it can be effectively controlled with available treatments. Yet, it is well recognised that 70% of patients are non-adherent to their asthma treatment. Personalising treatment by offering the most relevant interventions based on the patient's psychological/behavioural needs results in great success. However, health care providers have limited available resources to deliver a patient-centred approach to their psychological/behavioural needs, resulting in a current one-size-fits-all strategy due to the non-feasible nature of existing surveys. The solution would be to provide health care professionals with a clinically feasible questionnaire that identifies the patients personal psychological/behavioural factors to adherence.
The goal of this Prospective, multi-center, open-label single-arm study is to Assess the Safety and Effectiveness of additional sizes of the BioFreedom Ultra CoCr Biolimus A9 coated coronary stent system in Patients at high risk of bleeding (HBR). The main question it aims to answer is to evaluate if the additional sizes of the BioFreedom Ultra have corresponding clinical safety and efficacy characteristics as the regulatory approved (=CE Marked) sizes.
