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.
This is a prospective, monocentric, open label, phase II trial of intravenous (IV) Pembrolizumab monotherapy in subjects previously untreated for their stage IIIB-IV, PD-L1 low non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Patients sedated under mechanical ventilation with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure with a PaO2/FiO2 equal or less than 200mmHg (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, ARDS and non-ARDS) will be included in the study early in the course of the disease (first week of mechanical ventilation). At enrollment, data on the clinical condition of the patient will be recorded together with ventilation settings: ventilation mode, the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2), PEEP, tidal volume, set pressure, respiratory rate, time of the respiratory cycle, recent blood gas parameters. Airway pressure, flow, and esophageal pressure (or alternatively electrical activity of the diaphragm, Eadi) will be recorded 3 times a day for 7 days: 1. Period 1 (morning): duration 20-30 minutes 2. Period 2 (afternoon): duration 20-30 minutes 3. Period 3 (evening / night): duration 20-30 minutes Registration will be ended at extubation, death or at eight days from the first recording. Monitoring of vital parameters (hemodynamic and respiratory) will be continuous throughout the duration of the study, as per normal clinical practice. All drugs used during the day of the measurements will be recorded. The patient will then be followed until discharge from the ICU and after 60 days of discharge to evaluate mortality. As an ancillary study, in a subgroup of patients continuous simplified measurement of respiratory recordings together with hourly clinical data on sedation and extended simplified polysomnography recordings will be performed within the first 7 days from inclusion. The analysis of the recorded waveforms will be performed in a single center by a centralized system that will quantify dyssynchrony and its intensity, calculate pressure time product, collect clinical and physiological data and outcome, and investigate possible correlations.
There are currently no clear recommendations on hemodynamic targets during kidney transplantation and most anesthesiologists rely on empiric or obsolete parameters such as CVP. The aim of this study is to investigate hemodynamic management of these patients applying a new generation of advanced monitoring systems such as MOSTCAREUP which can potentially provide a clear overview of the circulatory status beat by beat and to adjust fluid therapy in every single patient or clinical condition.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of TRx0237 16 mg/day and 8 mg/day in the treatment of subjects with Alzheimer's Disease compared to placebo. In addition, an open-label, delayed-start phase is included to demonstrate a disease-modifying effect of TRx0237.
A monocentric cluster-crossover design has been used in this study to test the effectiveness of a 3-in-1 perineal care washcloth versus standard of care (e.g., water and pH neutral soap) to prevent and treat pressure ulcers in ICUs.
A Phase 3 comparison of ipilimumab with and without IMO-2125 in advanced melanoma
The MONET registry will include any patient with previous coronary stenting undergoing any type of surgery or operative endoscopic/endovascular procedure. The effects of the application of the Consensus Document "Stent and Surgery-2" on perioperative antiplatelet therapy will be assessed. The study will also assess ischemic and hemorrhagic events in relation to the application of the Consensus Document and length of any antiplatelet discontinuation and delay in performing surgical procedures.
A research study to evaluate the activity of alectinib for the Treatment of pretreated patients with advanced NSCLC that have confirmed RETrearrangement.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of gantenerumab versus placebo in participants with early (prodromal to mild) AD. All participants must show evidence of beta-amyloid pathology. Eligible participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive either subcutaneous (SC) injection of gantenerumab or placebo. The primary efficacy assessment will be performed at the end of the double blind period at week 116. Participants will then be offered to enter into an open-label extension (OLE). Participants not willing to go to the OLE will participate in a long term follow-up period for up to 50 weeks after the last gantenerumab dose.
Clinical trial about beneficial effects of natural ingredient containing chlorogenic acid and luteolin on liver health and conditions related to liver (such as metabolic syndrome) for general body health.
