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 study enrolles all consecutive patients undergoing cardiac surgery at the European Hospital, Rome. The population undergoes randomization to receive usual surgical hemostasis or added topical application of Omni-stat Celox. The two populations are followed up prospectively as regarding blood loss and need for blood transfusions, as well as adverse events at 30 days after surgery.
The primary purpose of this study was to see how tasisulam-sodium affected metastatic melanoma when compared against paclitaxel as measured by overall survival.
The present study is designed to evaluate the effect of a mixture of probiotics on the prevention of traveler's diarrhea (TD) in subjects who travel to a country with a high risk for developing TD. Subjects will be asked to take one capsule containing a mixture of probiotics or a placebo capsule a day, within the week before departure, during the travel and up to 3 days after return. They will note the following outcomes in a diary: occurence of diarrhea, number and consistency of stools, duration of the diarrhea, presence of diarrhea-related symptoms and need for rescue medication. The present study will examine if the use of the probiotics capsule reduces the occurence of traveler's diarrhea as compared to the placebo capsule.

Over 250 sites will participate in over 26 countries. Subjects will receive bapineuzumab. Each subject's participation will last approximately 4 years.
The purpose of this study is to determine safety and tolerability of the treatment with lithium in Multiple System Atrophy. Moreover, clinical symptoms, neuronal loss, quality of life and depressive symptoms, will be considered to further investigate the effect of lithium therapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of bapineuzumab in subjects with Alzheimer Disease who participated in study 3133K1-3000 (NCT00667810). Over 250 sites will participate in over 26 countries. Subjects will receive bapineuzumab. Each subject's participation will last approximately 4 years.
Combined modality therapy has then emerged as the standard of care for limited-stage Hodgkin's lymphoma and doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) chemotherapy that is devoid of alkylating agents and associated with a low potential for gonadal toxicity and leukemogenesis, is currently considered a gold standard. Nevertheless, the disadvantage to combine radiotherapy to ABVD is represented by late cardiovascular events (myocardial dysfunction and coronary or valvular disease), especially when the heart is within the radiation field; bleomycin pulmonary toxicity also is increased in conjunction with RT and secondary tumors, in particular in the RT fields. This study aims at treating patients with limited disease with multiagent chemotherapy alone, without irradiation, and using radiotherapy only for relapses.
The purpose of this study is to make laquinimod 0.6 mg available for all subjects who completed the placebo-controlled MS-LAQ-301 study according to the protocol and to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability and effect on disease course of daily oral laquinimod 0.6 mg in subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis.
Monotherapy treatment with CS-7017 to assess progression-free-survival (PFS) of subjects who achieved an objective response of Disease Control on first line therapy with Folinic acid (leucovorin), Fluorouracil (5-FU), Oxaliplatin (Eloxatin) known as FOLFOX; or Folinic acid (leucovorin), Fluorouracil (5-FU), irinotecan (Camptosar) known as FOLFIRI.
This 2 part study will assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of a combination of oral daily RAD001 and intravenous 3-weekly R1507 in patients with advanced solid tumors. In Part 1 of the study, patients will be enrolled sequentially to receive 5mg by mouth (po) RAD001 daily + 16mg/kg intravenous (iv) R1507 every 3 weeks (level 1) and if tolerated, 10mg po RAD001 daily + 16mg/kg iv R1507 every 3 weeks (level 2).In Part 2 of the study, patients with 1) advanced renal cell cancer and 2) advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors will receive the maximum tolerated dose regimen from Part 1 (5mg or 10mg po RAD001 + 16mg/kg iv R1507). The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
