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 purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus epacadostat compared to sunitinib or pazopanib in participants with locally advanced/metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) with a clear cell component who have not received prior systemic therapy for their mRCC.
To evaluate the clinical safety and efficacy of a new Medtronic Coronary Drug-Coated Balloon Catheter in the treatment of de novo lesions, small vessel disease or In-Stent Restenosis with coronary lesions previously treated with drug-eluting or bare metal stents in native coronary arteries.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and safety profile of ASP8374 when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab in participants with locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumor malignancies. Also primary purpose is to characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of ASP8374 when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab. Last primary purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of ASP8374 when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab. The secondary purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-tumor effect (objective response rate [ORR], duration of response [DOR], persistence of response after discontinuation, and disease control rate [DCR]) of ASP8374 when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab. NTP: Neutropenia NHAE:Non-haematological AE GBS: Guillain-Barré syndrome"" IRR: Infusion-related reaction AST: Aspartate aminotransferase ALT: Alanine aminotransferase MS/MG: Myasthenia Syndrome/Myasthenia Gravis TRT: Treatment-related Toxicity TCP: Thrombocytopenia
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of SHP647 in inducing remission, based on composite score of participant-reported symptoms and centrally read endoscopy, in participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC).
Radiation dose to interventional cardiologists performing transradial percutaneous coronary procedures is higher compared to those performing transfemoral exams. The radiation dose seems particularly high at pelvic level. We prepared an home-made protective extension of the leaded curtain under table that should reduce the operator exposure during interventional coronary procedures. The aim of the study is to evaluate the procedural efficacy of the protective extension on the operator radiation dose at pelvic level
Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is the most common neuromonitoring modality used in neurocritical care units (NCCU) around the world. Uncertainties remain around intracranial pressure monitoring both in traumatic and non-traumatic brain injury, and variation in clinical practice of intracranial pressure monitoring exists between neurocritical care units. The objectives of the study will explore intracranial pressure monitoring variation in practice to prioritise uncertainties in the clinical management of critical care patients with acute brain injury and support further collaborative hypotheses-based prospective studies.
Adrenocortical cancer (ACC) is a rare aggressive tumor. The treatment of metastatic ACC is challenging and the current available treatments are mitotane, chemotherapy or the combination of both. Prognosis in locally advanced inoperable and metastatic ACC patients still remains poor, the 5-year overall survival being <15%. New treatment strategies are therefore needed. The taxanes are a class of drugs targeting the microtubules that have shown to be effective in the treatment of several malignancies but have not been fully developed in patients with ACC. Cabazitaxel is a new taxoid which promotes the tubulin assembly in vitro and stabilizes microtubules against cold-induced depolymerization as efficiently as docetaxel. Cabazitaxel was selected for development based on a better antiproliferative activity on resistant cell lines than docetaxel. The activity of the drug against several malignancies is currently tested in ongoing prospective studies, but to our knowledge neither preclinical nor clinical studies are currently testing cabaztaxel in ACC. This study is aimed to demonstrate that cabazitaxel is active in ACC, but the drug was never tested before in this clinical setting. A prospective, non-randomized, multicentre, open label, single arm, phase II study will be conducted in patients with advanced ACC. The phase II study will be conducted in 2 different Italian Institutions that are reference centers for ACC.
This study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of pomalidomide in children and young adults aged 1 to < 21 years with recurrent or progressive primary brain tumors in one of four primary brain tumor types: high-grade glioma (HGG), medulloblastoma, ependymoma and diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG).
This study evaluates the utility and reliability of Somnocheck micro Weinmann for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) screening in patients affected by resistant systemic arterial hypertension. Results are compared with a modified portable sleep apnea testing (type III portable monitoring: Somnocheck 2 Weinmann).
The primary objective is to compare overall survival (OS) for patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who have histology of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and who have any eligible histology treated with either cemiplimab or investigator's choice (IC) chemotherapy. The secondary objectives performed among SCC patients and among all eligible histologies (SCC and adenocarcinoma/adenosquamous carcinoma (AC) are: - To compare progression-free survival (PFS) of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy - To compare objective response rate (ORR) (partial response [PR] + complete response [CR]) of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 - To compare the duration of response (DOR) of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy - To compare the safety profiles of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy by describing adverse events (AE) - To compare quality of life (QOL) for patients treated with cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)
