Early Diagnosis of Upper Digestive Tract Disease
Upper digestive tract cancer (UDC) is a major disease burden worldwide encompassing all cancers involving the digestive tract (from oral cavity to duodenum). A majority of patients presenting with this disease are diagnosed late and have poor overall survival rates (<20%). NICE referral guidelines for diagnostic endoscopy are usually associated …
Haemodialysis fMRI Salt Appetite Study
Assessing how the rapid removal of salt and water by haemodialysis alters regional brain activity (by measurement of the brain blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal using functional MRI) during tasting of soup of differing salt concentrations. Identify differences in the brain response to salt taste pre- and post-haemodialysis between haemodialysis …
An Exploratory Study of Using Magnetic Resonance Prognostic Imaging Markers for Radiotherapy In Patients With Cervix Cancer (EMPIRIC Study)
Patients with cervical cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body can be cured with radiotherapy. One of the reasons radiotherapy can fail is because there are areas within the tumour that have a poor oxygen supply which makes them resistant to radiotherapy. This study aims to …
Circulating Tumour DNA (ctDNA) in Patients With Colorectal Cancer and the Relationship to Imaging Features of Extramural Venous Invasion
This study does not involve randomization or treatment. Eligible patients have colorectal adenocarcinoma with no metastases eligible for curative surgery. A pre operative staging scan must have been completed within 6 weeks prior to surgery. Two x 20ml blood samples will be taken from each patient, one prior to and …
Exploratory Study of Early Biomarkers Allowing Dynamic Assessment of Response to Treatment in Cancers of the Head and Neck
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)
Evaluation of High Dose Prednisolone Pharmacokinetics in the Acute and Chronic Setting
This is a pilot study to investigate serum prednisolone profiles in: Patients on high doses of prednisolone for any inflammatory disorder, both in the acute and chronic setting. Patients stepping up from or down to prednisolone therapy in association with a course of high dose methyl-prednisolone or dexamethasone. The study …
The PEACE (Posthumous Evaluation of Advanced Cancer Environment) Study
Historically, cancer research has been limited by sample acquisition in late stage disease, often restricted to single sites of disease with limited parallel clinical data collection in terms of prior therapy exposure. The PEACE study is intended to facilitate tissue donation from multiple tumour sites in the post-mortem setting and …
iFR Guided Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery
The expected outcome of better and improved patency of bypass grafts and its direct relation to pre-operative iFR measurements of stenosis as compared to direct visual physiology of stenosis in the coronary angiogram. To establish the correlation between the use of intracoronary physiology and improved graft patency at 12 months …
The Mind-Body IBD Study: Understanding the Mind-body Connection in IBD
An aspect of IBD care that is often overlooked is mental health treatment. Common mental health problems, such as anxiety and depression are very common in IBD, with a meta-analysis estimating prevalence as high as 25.2% for depression and 32.1% for anxiety. The prevalence of anxiety and depression increases when …
Predicting Radiotherapy Response and Toxicities in Soft Tissue Sarcoma of the Extremities - Cohort B
This is a multicentre prospective cohort study, primarily aimed at reporting the frequency and intensity of radiotherapy side-effects of patients with soft tissues sarcoma of the extremities (STSE). Two sub-studies are proposed within this study: MRI radiation response assessment Aimed at establishing whether changes in median apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC) …
