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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of orally administered GLPG3667 once daily for 24 weeks in adult participants with dermatomyositis (DM).
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the drug STAR-0215 in participants with hereditary angioedema (HAE). One group of participants will get 1 dose of STAR-0215, and two other groups will get 2 doses of STAR-0215. Researchers will study the effects of STAR-0215 in participants with HAE as this is the first time that the drug has been given to participants with HAE.
Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is the second most common form of skin cancer, and one of the most common cancers worldwide. The majority of CSCCs are easily removed by surgery and have excellent prognosis. However, a small subset has poor outcomes, including secondary spread in the body (metastasis) and death. The investigators will look at existing CSCC in people from two UK dermatology centres. The investigators will then evaluate the accuracy of current staging systems in predicting risk of poor outcomes in people. The investigators hope that this project will improve the management of patients with CSCC by validating the predictive power of currently available histological staging classifications for cSCC. In the second stage of the study, The investigators will see whether better prediction tools can be found.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common disease which is characterised by severe joint inflammation and chronic pain. The discovery of new joint specific treatments has transformed patient outcomes and yet most patients, even those whose joints respond fully to these treatments, continue to experience significant levels of pain. The investigators therefore believe that RA pain is caused by alternative sources in addition to the joints. Our group are pioneering the investigation of a possible link between the brain and the pain which RA patients experience. By employing sophisticated brain scanning methods, the investigators have shown that high levels of pain and blood inflammation are associated with changes within a specific region of the brain known as the left inferior parietal lobule(L-IPL). This region exhibited abnormal connections with other brain regions already known to be associated with pain in another chronic pain disorder called fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia is a musculoskeletal condition which is not classically related to high levels of blood inflammation, although, interestingly, it is not uncommon for it to co-exist in RA patients. In light of our preliminary brain scan studies, the investigators now think that fibromyalgia in the context of RA may be partially influenced by inflammation. In order to fully understand the precise processes that lead to this potential relationship, it is important to characterise the biological abnormalities that underlie our brain scan observations. Previous animal experiments have consistently observed abnormalities, such as high levels of the brain chemical glutamate and haphazard brain activity, in the context of inflammation. Conducting similar experiments in humans is not practical due to the inherent dangers of sampling live brain tissue. Instead, neuroscientists commonly use non-invasive methods to manipulate specific parts of the brain in order to better understand how they function. In conjunction, the latest scanners are now able to indirectly measure the effect of the brain modulation on relevant aspects of brain biology without the need to remove tissue. This information will help us to better understand the relationship between inflammation and pain in the RA brain.
This is a 2-part, prospective, open-label, single arm, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PDx), and efficacy of leniolisib in at least 15 pediatric patients (aged 1 to 6 years) with activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta (PI3Kδ) syndrome (APDS)
The goal of this observational study is to learn about survival and prognostic factors in patients who underwent surgical treatment for primary squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal vestibule. The main questions it aims to answer are: - what is the prognosis of patients affected by squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal vestibule? - are there any specific factors that could influence prognosis? - is it possible to elaborate a new staging system, able to overcome the limitations of the currently used ones? Data about patients, tumour and type of surgery performed will be collected. Participants will be followed-up for a minimum 6 months period after surgery.
Ataxia telangiectasia is a rare, genetic and progressive condition with no known cure. Therapies present a mainstream management option and have the potential to offer optimisation of fitness and general health. This pilot RCT aims to explore the effectiveness, feasibility, and acceptability of a co-produced home-based complex exercise intervention for children with ataxia telangiectasia. The study was designed through broad consultation with a collaborative of children and young people with A-T including family members, therapists, clinicians and researchers, called the A-Team collaborative (https://osf.io/edzn3/)
A study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of benralizumab administered subcutaneously in patients ≥ 6 to < 18 years of age with severe eosinophilic asthma, including a well-documented history of asthma exacerbations and uncontrolled asthma receiving high-dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) plus at least one additional controller medication.
Post market surveillance study to confirm the ongoing safety and performance of Silver I Alginate Non-Woven Dressing (Hydro-Alginate) in chronic and acute wounds.
This clinical investigation will evaluate the effectiveness, tolerability and safety of two denture fixative creams versus no fixative control
