There are about 21062 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Italy. 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.
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a rare lethal neurodegenerative disease involving inflammation. Riluzole, the only drug for ALS, improves median survival by 3 months. This prompts new treatments of ALS. RNS60 is an experimental drug with favorable effects in preclinical studies of neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. Based on significant efficacy demonstrated in preclinical studies and its excellent clinical safety profile, RNS60 is a promising candidate for a drug to treat ALS. Developing a pharmacodynamic marker will be a first and important step for dose finding and exploration of the mechanism of action in human, and pave the way to trials measuring drug efficacy. The Investigator propose a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, Phase II trial. The study centers will be located in Italy and at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) in Boston. A total of 142 ALS patients will be randomly assigned to RNS60 or placebo (administered by intravenous infusion once/week and inhaled via nebulization every morning for 24 weeks). All participants will also take riluzole (50-mg tablet twice/day). Blood samples for biomarker analysis (protein, RNA) will be collected in the screening period, on day 1, week 4,12 and 24. Both safety and potential therapeutic effects of RNS60 will be also assessed.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of ALLN-177 in patients with enteric hyperoxaluria.
The Brevera Breast Biopsy System integrates tissue acquisition, real time imaging, and post biopsy handling all during the same procedure. This post-market clinical trial will be performed to obtain clinical/operational data and feedback on the Brevera Breast Biopsy System.
The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a third TKI after two previous lines of therapy with TKIs, in terms of median progression free survival (mPFS), in patients affected by metastatic renal cancer cell. Patients receiving the sequence Sunitinib- Axitinib, will receive Sorafenib. Patients receiving the sequence Pazopanib-Sorafenib, will receive Sunitinib. Sorafenib dosage 400mg orally, twice a day. Sunitinib dosage 50 mg 4 weeks on followed by 2 weeks a rest. The therapy will be continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
The cerebellum is known to be strongly implicated in the functional reorganization of motor networks in stroke patients, especially for gait an balance functions. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the cerebellum can be used to enhance these adaptive processes in stroke recovery. In this randomized, double blind, sham-controlled trial we aim to investigate the efficacy and safety of cerebellar intermittent theta burst stimulation coupled with intensive physical therapy in promoting gait recovery in hemiparetic patients due to recent stroke in the territory of the contralateral middle cerebral artery
This randomized, active-controlled, multicenter, open-label, Phase III study is designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of alectinib compared with platinum-based in the adjuvant setting. Participants in the experimental arm will receive alectinib at 600 mg orally twice daily (BID) taken with food for 24 months. Participants in the control arm will receive one of the protocol specified platinum based chemotherapy regimens for 4 cycles. Following treatment completion, participants will be followed up for their disease until disease recurrence. At the time of disease recurrence, participants will enter a survival follow-up until death, withdrawal of consent or study closure, whichever occurs earlier.
This is a randomized, double-blinded study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of neoadjuvant treatment with atezolizumab (MPDL3280A) or placebo in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy in participants with resectable Stage II, IIIA, or select IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) followed by open-label adjuvant/postoperative atezolizumab or best supportive care and monitoring.
Fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab (FCR) is the gold treatment for fit and young patients with Chronic Lymphoid Leukemia (CLL). However, patients with a mutation known as IGVH unmutated and patients with a particular characteristic known as 'disrupted TP53' show an inferior outcome after FCR in terms of survival. Venetoclax as a single agent or combined with rituximab is an effective treatment for relapsed/refractory patients with IGVH unmutated CLL and/or del(17p) and is associated with a high rate of clinical responses.
This study will test the effectiveness and safety of Venetoclax in combination with standard induction regimen for patients with acute leukemia and poor prognosis.
