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 CUV105 study will assess the efficacy and safety of afamelanotide and NB-UVB light in patients with vitiligo on the body and face versus NB-UVB light alone.
The aims of this study were to: 1. Compare the effects of low-dose Maximal Intent and Controlled Tempo Resistance Training on untrained healthy adults' quality-of-life, functional capacity, and strength. 2. Qualitatively explore perceptions of Maximal Intent and Controlled Tempo Resistance Training.
The goal of this mixed methods observational study is to investigate paramedic independent prescribing (PIP) in emergency and urgent healthcare settings. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What are benefits and limitations of paramedic independent prescribing in emergency and urgent care settings and how does it contribute to patient care and healthcare service delivery? 2. What facilitators and barriers exist which influence the implementation and delivery of PIP as a new and complex intervention within emergency and urgent care? Participants in the study will include paramedics qualified in PIP and staff working at the case study sites. With participant consent, data will be collected using non-participant observation of the prescribing practice of 4-6 paramedics at each site, capturing this data through field notes. The views and insights of a range of other site staff such as managers, doctors and other clinicians will be interviewed at each case site, during semi structured interviews. At each case site anonymised prescribing frequency data will also be collected to understand the range and frequencies of prescribed medication by paramedics. Relevant meetings (such as clinical governance and medicines management meetings) will also be observed, and documentary analysis of relevant site documents will also be undertaken.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of 6- and 12-week supplementation of a bioactive whey protein concentrate drink containing dairy phospholipids on cognitive function and mood in healthy young to middle aged adults. The proposed randomised, double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel groups design methodology will assess the cognitive, mood and lifestyle effects of 40g per day of bioactive whey protein concentrate powder mixed with water and matched placebo prior to (baseline) and after -6 and 12-week supplementation. The trial will utilise the COMPASS cognitive assessment system (Northumbria University) during the laboratory visits to measure performance on the cognitive tasks and a range of mood measures between visits examining general mood, stress, depression, anxiety, sleep quality, fatigue, and physical symptoms. Additionally, dairy dietary habits will be recorded throughout to allow for any significant changes to diet to be assessed for the potential influence on the outcome variables. Participants will be asked not to make any major changes to their diet or exercise regime for the duration of the trial. This will be checked by asking the participant if there has been any significant changes at each visit. Blood samples will also be taken from a subset of participants who opt into this part of the trial to measure any changes to plasma phospholipid profiles. 220 participants will participate, aged 25-49, and self-report as in good health. Participants will be supplied with the treatment whilst visiting the research centre on testing days and will then consume treatment at home daily. Participants will record the time they take their treatment each day in a diary that will then be returned to the research team at the end of the study testing period.
The main objective of this trial is to evaluate the effects of a single therapeutic and a single supra-therapeutic dose of BI 1015550 following oral administration on cardiac safety parameters in healthy male and female volunteers.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of subcutaneous satralizumab, a recombinant, humanized anti-interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor monoclonal antibody, in participants with thyroid eye disease (TED).
The goal of this non-randomised trial is to test how a workshop that includes religiously-tailored messages can help increase the uptake of breast, colorectal and cervical cancer screening among Muslim women in North East England and Scotland. The results of this trial will inform the development of a full-scale randomised-controlled trial. Participants in this study will be asked to take part in a two-hour workshop, deliver either online or in-person.
Functional seizures are common and harmful. They look like epileptic seizures but are not caused by the excess electrical discharges in the brain that arise in epilepsy. Our understanding of the mechanisms that give rise to functional seizures is limited, and for this reason the development of novel treatments for functional seizures is also limited. Recent research by our and other groups has shown that interoception may play an important role in the development of functional seizures. Interoception refers to the process by which the nervous system senses, interprets and integrates information from inside the body. Research has shown that altered interoception is linked to functional seizures. We have shown that patients with functional seizures have a reduced ability to accurately identify signals from within their bodies, such as their heartbeats. The worse their ability, the greater their seizure severity and higher their levels of other unwanted symptoms. In separate research other groups have shown that interoceptive training, that is actively training an individual to better recognise signals from their body, can reduce levels of anxiety and the levels of unwanted symptoms. In this study we therefore plan to explore the feasibility of interoceptive training in patients with functional seizures.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and how effective the study medicine (PF-07220060) plus fulvestrant is compared to the study doctor's choice of treatment in people with advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Advanced cancer is the one that is unlikely to be cured or taken care of with treatment. Metastatic cancer is the one that has spread to other parts of the body. This study is seeking female and male participants who: - are 18 years of age or older; - are hormone receptor (HR)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative; - have advanced or metastatic breast cancer after taking other treatments before this study; - have not taken or need to take medications that are not allowed by the study protocol; - do not have any medical or mental conditions that may increase the risk of study participation. Half of the participants will take PF-07220060 two times daily by mouth along with fulvestrant. Fulvestrant will be given as a shot into the muscle. The other half will take the study doctor's choice of treatment which can either be: - Fulvestrant alone taken as shot into the muscle. - Everolimus along with exemestane taken once daily by mouth. This study will compare the experiences of participants receiving the study medicine plus fulvestrant to those who are receiving the study doctor's choice of treatment. This will help decide if the study medicine is safe and effective. Participants will receive study treatment and/or will be in the study until: - imaging scans (such as an MRI and/or CT) show that their cancer is getting worse. - the study doctor thinks the participant is no longer benefitting from the study medicine. - has side effects that become too severe. A side effect is a reaction (expected or unexpected) to a medicine or treatment you take. - the participant chooses to stop taking part.
The primary aim will be to understand whether a digital breathing biofeedback system can improve the outcomes of physiotherapist guided breathing retraining.
