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.
The present study aims at evaluating the prognostic factors at diagnosis predicting Central Nervous System (CNS) relapse in order to identify a group of patients with higher risk of CNS involvement in which prophylaxis with liposomal Ara-C or other drugs should be indicated.
Phase II randomised control trial of whole body cooling in mild neonatal encephalopathy.
The primary objectives of the study are: - To evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of evinacumab in patients with Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) - To evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of evinacumab in adolescent patients with HoFH The secondary objectives of the study are: - To evaluate the effect of evinacumab on lipid parameters in patients with HoFH - To evaluate the effect of evinacumab on lipid parameters in adolescent patients with HoFH - To evaluate the potential development of anti-evinacumab antibodies
The consortium aims to commercialise the MMpredictor as a personalised medicine tool that predicts the most effective treatment strategy for individual Multiple Myeloma (MM) patients. MM is the second most common form of blood cancer contributing to 15% of all blood cancers and ~1,5% and 2% of all cancer deaths annually in the EU and US, respectively. Patients show a large variability in treatment response and side effects due to tumour heterogeneity and the patient's intrinsic characteristics. Therefore, not every treatment will be suitable for each patient, and treatment strategies are often based on trial-and-error. The availability of multiple (>20) treatment options complicates treatment decision-making even more. With the current development of many more promising treatments, there is an urgent unmet clinical need for a diagnostic assay that supports personalised cancer treatment in order to improve patient health outcomes, prevent side effects and reduce healthcare costs. SkylineDx has previously developed the MMprofiler, a microarray-based diagnostic test that can subtype MM patients and reliably predict MM patient survival (prognosis). In this project, the test's clinical value will be expanded to include the prediction of treatment effectiveness in individual patients based on Gene Expression Profiling. An addendum for new intended use will be filed to the current in vitro diagnostic (IVD) registration, while renaming the test to MMpredictor. The project will also focus on positioning the test as a cost-effective IVD test for personalised medicine, that will increase health outcome and quality of life of patients and reduce healthcare costs. The consortium consists of a life science SME specialised in molecular diagnostics, clinical centres with world renowned KOLs, a leading health economic institute, and a European MM patient advocacy organisation combining all the required complementary expertise to successfully bring the MMpredictor to market.
The primary objectives of this study are: Part 1: To compare the overall survival (OS) of cemiplimab/chemo-f and cemiplimab/chemo-l/ipi versus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced squamous or nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with tumors expressing PD-L1 in <50% of tumor cells. Part 2: To compare the OS of cemiplimab/chemo-f with placebo/chemo-f in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced squamous or non-squamous NSCLC irrespective of PD-L1 expression. The key secondary objectives are: Part 1: To compare the progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rate (ORR) of cemiplimab/chemo-f and cemiplimab/chemo-l/ipi versus chemo-f in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced squamous or non-squamous NSCLC and tumors expressing PD-L1 in <50% of tumor cells. Part 2: To compare the PFS and ORR of cemiplimab/chemo-f versus placebo/chemo-f in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced squamous or non-squamous NSCLC irrespective of PD-L1 expression.
Observational, multi-centre, prospective study to investigate the feasibility of centralized TDM of moxifloxacin and levofloxacin in MDR-TB patients by determining turn-around time between sampling and receiving dosing advice. In addition, the effect of TDM will be evaluated by comparing treatment results of prospective patients receiving TDM with historical controls without TDM.
Osmotherapy consists in the therapeutic use of osmotically active substances with the aim of reducing the volume and therefore the intracranial pressure. It therefore represents an essential component in the clinical management of cerebral edema and intracranial hypertension, whether they are a consequence of head trauma, ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, and neoplasm or neurosurgical procedures. The current study aims at evaluating in vivo the effects on haemostasis parameters of hypertonic saline solutions at different concentration, as compared to mannitol, in patients with neuroradiological signs (CT / MRI) of cerebral edema / non-traumatic intracranial hypertension.
The purpose of this multi-center study in non-dialysis participants with anemia associated with CKD is to evaluate safety, efficacy and quality of life of daprodustat compared to placebo.
The purpose of this study is to provide expanded access to gilteritinib (ASP2215) for patients with FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3)-mutated relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or with FLT3-mutated AML in composite complete remission (CRc: [complete remission (CR), complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi), complete remission with incomplete platelet recovery (CRp)]) with minimal residual disease (MRD) without access to comparable or alternative therapy.
