STAMPEDE2 is a clinical trial comparing two new treatments with standard of care in people with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and is responsive to hormone therapy. People from all backgrounds and ethnicities are encouraged to take part and multiple hospitals across the UK are involved. University College London is running the trial. Each comparison within the trial has its own control arm where people get the best standard of care (Arm A) versus a research arm where a new treatment is added to standard of care. Participants are allocated to an arm by a computerised system with a 50% chance of getting the research treatment. Comparison S: Arm A versus Arm S (Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy (SABR)) - Tests whether giving targeted doses of radiotherapy (SABR) to parts of the body where the cancer has spread slows the spread of the cancer and improves survival. 2476 people will be in this comparison. Comparison P: Arm A versus Arm P (PSMA-Lutetium (177Lu-PSMA-617)) - Tests whether giving a radioactive material (177Lu-PSMA-617) that targets prostate cancer cells slows the spread of the cancer and improves survival. 1756 people will be in this comparison. All participants will be followed up with scans and tests to monitor their cancer. Doctors will check for any side effects from the treatments. Treatments will be stopped if side effects are serious, or people no longer wish to take the treatments.

RESOLVE is a pragmatic, cluster-randomised, open-label study designed to evaluate in real-world conditions the comparative effectiveness of two default dialysate sodium concentrations. Dialysis sites will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to a default dialysate sodium concentration of 137mmol/l or 140mmol/l. 'Default' is defined as the use of the allocated dialysate sodium for ≥ 90% of delivered dialysis sessions in the unit. All other care will be according to standard local practices as determined by the site. Outcomes will be assessed on individual patients dialysing at those sites. Sites will be asked to consent to participation while waiver or opt-out consent will be sought for individual patients. It is anticipated that site accrual will occur over 5-7 years with average study duration expected to be approximately 2-5 years. The actual length of the study will be end-point determined.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of PF-07220060 with letrozole compared to approved treatments (ie, palbociclib, ribociclib or abemaciclib with letrozole) in people with breast cancer: * HR-positive (breast cancer cells that need estrogen or progesterone to grow) * HER2-negative (cells that have a small amount or none of a protein called HER2 on their surface); * locally advanced (that has spread from where it started to nearby tissue or lymph nodes) or metastatic disease (the spread of cancer to other places in the body) * who have not received any prior systemic anti-cancer treatment for advanced/metastatic disease. Approximately half of the participants will receive PF-07220060 plus letrozole while the other half of participants will receive the investigator's choice of treatment plus letrozole. The study team will monitor how each participant is doing with the study treatment during regular visits at the study clinic.

TRACC Part B: Despite potentially curative surgery +/- adjuvant chemotherapy, a proportional of patients with early stage CRC will experience disease relapse. Current tools for surveillance, e.g., blood sampling for tumour markers (CEA) are neither sensitive nor specific. We hypothesise that detection of mutations in circulating free DNA (cfDNA) in plasma can predict relapse in patients with early stage CRC. Circulating cell free tumour DNA (ctDNA) maintains the same mutations that are present in tumour. In colorectal cancer CRC, primary tumours and\& metastases exhibit high genomic concordance. Therefore the TRACC study TRACC Part B is investigating whether serial blood samples taken from in patients with stage II and III fully resected early stage CRC colorectal cancer that have undergone potentially curative surgery, blood samples to can be used to detect and\& quantify ctDNA may in order to identify minimal residual disease MRD and predict relapse earlier than existing methods. CtDNA may ultimately help identify a subset of patients that are or are unlikely to benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy and could therefore safely spare some patients from receiving unnecessary chemotherapy \& its associated side-effects. TRACC Part C: We hypothesis that ctDNA guided adjuvant chemotherapy administration will enable biomarker driven selection of patients who would and would not benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy and thereby reduce the proportion of patient receiving unnecessary adjuvant chemotherapy, reducing the potential side effects associated with it, but without compromising disease free survival (DFS). : This part of the study will use tThe blood test ctDNA result from a post-operative blood sample willto guide adjuvant chemotherapy treatment decisions. The study aims to demonstrate that athe de -escalation strategy of ctDNA guided adjuvant chemotherapy is non-inferior to standard of care treatment as measured by 3 year DFS in patients with high risk stage II and stage III CRC, in those who have no evidence of MRD (ctDNA negative). after surgery for patients with colorectal cancer who are following the standard of care pathway. Patients are randomised at the post- operative time point to: Arm A (standard of care adjuvant chemotherapy), or Arm B (ctDNA guided adjuvant chemotherapy) arm. For the ct DNA guided arm, patients who are ctDNA negative at this time point will have their chemotherapy de-escalated.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and usually fatal lung disease with a poor prognosis. IPF patients frequently have other medical conditions as well, with reflux disease being one of the most common. Previous studies and a review of data already collected suggest that treatments used to reduce reflux disease symptoms, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), may reduce IPF disease progression and improve survival rates. Current IPF treatment guidelines cautiously advise PPI treatment for IPF patients, however there hasn't been a study which investigates this specifically yet even though doctors and government groups have said one is needed. There are thought to be links between cough, reflux, sleep and IPF. As a result we will be asking a sub-group of patients to complete two 24 hour sessions of cough frequency monitoring as a sub-study. Some of these participants may be asked to wear a wrist-based activity and sleep monitor during these periods also. In addition, we will ask patients to complete two questionnaires on their sleeping habits to further investigate this link. At the end of the trial, we will able to recommend whether or not IPF patients should take PPIs routinely or not. This project is a clinical trial of an investigational medicinal product (drug). The drug is well established and approved for use for another medical condition. The drug will be assessed against placebo (dummy) tablets, with patients allocated to either group by chance. Patients on the drug and dummy tablets will be assessed at the same time. Neither patients nor their doctors or the research team will know which treatment they have been allocated to. We will be running the study at approximately 37 hospitals across the UK. All study visits may take place remotely without the participant needing to attend the hospital. However, face-to-face onsite visits are also permitted if preferred/feasible. All participants will receive central training via video call, with a trained clinical physiologist, following consent on how to complete domiciliary spirometry assessments. Further training will be provided during follow-up if deemed required following a review of the data. Questionnaires will be completed either electronically or by post. Potentially eligible patients will be approached remotely or in clinic after being identified from local patient lists/databases. They will be given/sent the relevant study literature to consider participation in the study and will be followed-up by a member of the local research team after they have had at least 24hours to consider participating. Interested patients will be invited to a virtual or face-to-face screening appointment where they will be counselled on the study and what it entails in order to provide informed consent to participate. The patient will then be asked to complete baseline questionnaires, provide demographic, medical history and concomitant medication, and any other relevant study information, complete spirometry assessments over 5 days at home using a domiciliary spirometer and provide a blood sample for safety in order for the investigator to confirm their eligibility for the trial. Patients may also provide a blood sample for analysis in future research if the visit takes place at the recruiting site. In addition, eligible participants may complete a 24hour period of cough frequency monitoring, and activity and sleep monitoring if applicable, if they have consented to do so. Patients in receipt of PPIs without a clear clinical indication for them at consent, will undergo a two week wash-out period (following agreement from the patient and their GP) to ascertain whether it is safe to stop this treatment and monitor whether their symptoms subside. Patients who remain asymptomatic at the end of this period will proceed to enter the study. For those whose symptoms return, PPI treatment will recommence and they will not enter the study. Once the results of all baseline assessments are known, patients will be randomised. Participants will receive an initial 6 month supply of trial medication and be instructed to take 2 tablets twice daily (approximately 12 hours apart), 30 minutes before meals, for 12 months. Participants will commence weekly domiciliary spirometry assessments, for 12 months, from this point onwards. At 3 months post-randomisation, participants will complete the relevant questionnaires and provide blood samples for safety checks. Domiciliary spirometry assessments remain ongoing. Participants involved in the sub-study will again undergo cough frequency monitoring, and activity and sleep monitoring if applicable, for a final 24 hour period. Patients will be asked to report any changes in their medical history, medication and any events which they have experienced since their last visit. Participants will be contacted again at 6 months post-randomisation where they we will complete questionnaires and provide a safety blood samples. Domiciliary spirometry assessments remain ongoing. Participants will again be asked to report any changes in their medical history, medication and any events which they have experienced since their last visit. Participant adherence to the trial medication will be checked. A final supply of trial medication will be dispensed. At 9 months post-randomisation, local site staff will contact patients to record any changes in their medical history, medication and any events experienced since their last visit. Patients will be required to complete the required questionnaires and provide a blood sample for safety checks. The final study assessments will be at 12 months post-randomisation. Patients will be required to complete all necessary questionnaires, provide a blood sample for safety analysis and a final set of domiciliary spirometry assessments will occur over a 5 day consecutive period. If participants have consented to do so, an additional blood sample will be taken for analysis in future research studies if the visit occurs on site. Patients will be required to report any changes in their medical history, medication and any events they have experienced since their last report to site staff. If participants are suspected of or confirmed to have experienced any of the following they may reduce the dose of their trial treatment, at any point during the study, to 1 tablet, twice daily (approximately 12 hours apart), 30 minutes before meals: infection including pneumonia, Clostridium difficile infection and/or hypomagnesaemia. Participants may also reduce dose if the participant or clinician wishes them to do so. A blood sample for genotype analysis may be taken at any study timepoint which occurs face-to-face, if the participants consents to provide one. Safety blood samples will be taken at the participant's GP surgery where visits take place remotely. Remote follow-up may take place via video or phone call.
