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 investigators will retrospectively analyze and compare data of 2 groups of overweight and obese patients: subjects who followed a diet based on Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) measured by indirect calorimetry and subjects who followed a diet based on REE estimated by the Harris-Benedict equation. Propensity score adjustment will be used to adjust for known differences between the 2 groups
The purpose of this Post-Approval Study (PAS) is to evaluate the effectiveness of MPP to improve CRT response in the non-responder patient population when used in "real-world" clinical practice, following commercial release. This evaluation is based on the Clinical Composite Score which summarizes the proportions and frequencies of CRT non-responder patients who are "improved", "unchanged" or "worsened" after receiving MPP therapy. Patients will be followed for the duration of the PAS. This study is required by FDA as a condition of approval of the MPP feature and is integrated within the Product Surveillance Registry (PSR).
The study is aimed at verifying if a pulmonologist in training can reliably assess the adequacy of EBUS-TBNA samples from intrathoracic lymphadenopathy after a period of training provided by an experienced pathologist.
STRIMVELIS is a medicinal product that restores adenosine deaminase (ADA) function in hematopoietic cell lineages, thereby preventing impaired immune function. STRIMVELIS is indicated for the treatment of patients with ADA- severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), for whom suitable human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related stem cell donor is not available. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of routine and additional risk minimization measures by assessing the understanding of referring health care providers (HCPs) and parents/carers (hereby referred as participants) with regard to the specific risks associated with STRIMVELIS. In this cross-sectional study, surveys will be provided to referring HCPs and parents/carers of children approximately six months after treatment with STRIMVELIS. The study will recruit for approximately two years or until a maximum of 10 referring HCPs and 10 parents/carers have completed their respective surveys, whichever occurs first.
The study AC-058B301 (OPTIMUM; NCT02425644) has been designed to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ponesimod in subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). The AC-058B303 study is the long-term extension for the core study AC-058B301. The purpose of this long term extension of the core study AC-058B301 is to characterize the long-term safety, tolerability, and control of disease of ponesimod 20 mg in subjects with RMS.
This is a Phase II/III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, two parallel-group study in male patients with the AMN phenotype of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) to assess the efficacy and safety of MIN-102 treatment. Study sites will consist of specialist referral centers experienced in the management of adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD).
- The association of FOLFOX (5-fluoruracil, folinic acid, and oxaliplatin) and pan is a standard option for the first-line treatment of unresectable RAS and BRAF wt mCRC patients. - The phase III TRIBE trial recently demonstrated that FOLFOXIRI (5-fluoruracil, folinic acid, oxaliplatin and irinotecan) plus bev significantly prolongs PFS and OS and increases RECIST response rate, ETS and DoR, as compared to FOLFIRI (5-fluoruracil folinic acid, and irinotecan) plus bev. The advantage provided by the intensification of the upfront chemotherapy backbone is independent of RAS and BRAF mutational status. - Some phase II trials recently assessed the safety and activity of the combination of three-drugs chemotherapy regimens with an anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody. Promising activity results in terms of RECIST response rate and R0 resection rate have been achieved, with some safety concerns with special regards to gastrointestinal toxicity. - In the phase II randomized MACBETH study the combination of a modified schedule of FOLFOXIRI with cetuximab determined remarkable activity results, with an acceptable and manageable safety profile. - The optimal duration of the upfront treatment with chemotherapy plus anti-EGFRs is not established. The phase II MACRO-2 trial suggested that interrupting FOLFOX after 4 months while continuing cet alone as maintenance, is a reasonable option. - Activity parameters (RECIST response rate, ETS, DoR) are clinically relevant endpoints, associated with longer survival, in particular with anti-EGFR moAb-based treatment. On the basis of these considerations, we designed the present phase III randomized trial of first-line mFOLFOXIRI plus pan versus mFOLFOX6 plus pan in RAS and BRAF wt unresectable mCRC patients.
"real-life" retrospective multicentric database for the analysis of the long term outcomes of total arterial CABG in comparison to saphenous vein based CABG
The GLOBAL LEADERS Adjudication Sub-StudY, GLASSY, is based on a re-assessment of all the events reported in the dataset of the parent trial (COMPARATIVE EFFECTIVENESS OF 1 MONTH OF TICAGRELOR PLUS ASPIRIN FOLLOWED BY TICAGRELOR MONOTHERAPY VERSUS A CURRENT-DAY INTENSIVE DUAL ANTIPLATELET THERAPY IN ALL-COMERS PATIENTS UNDERGOING PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION WITH BIVALIRUDIN AND BIOMATRIX FAMILY DRUG-ELUTING STENT USE) by an independent Clinical Event Committee (CEC), composed of three physicians not involved in the main trial. The substudy include the first 19 top-enrolling sites of the GLOBAL LEADERS to reach the estimated sample size of 7,186 patients for the two co-primary outcomes of death, any non-fatal myocardial infarction, any non-fatal stroke or urgent target vessel revascularization and bleeding events classified as 3 or 5 according to the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) criteria. To ensure a comprehensive assessment of clinical events, a triggers logic is adopted to identify other potential events qualifying for study endpoints but not reported as such by local investigators.
Randomized, multicentre phase II trial of the sequencing of Radium-223 and Docetaxel plus prednisone in symptomatic bone-only metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) Open-label, randomized phase II trial in patients with symptomatic bone-only metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Eligible patients are randomly assigned into two arms: - Arm A: radium-223 initially followed by docetaxel plus prednisone at the time of progression (the second step is optional according to clinical evolution of disease) - Arm B: docetaxel plus prednisone initially followed by radium-223 at the time of progression (the second step is optional according to clinical evolution of disease).
