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.
Higher rates of complications and poorer cosmetic outcomes have been reported after salvage mastectomy and implant-based versus autologous reconstruction in patients previously exposed to radiation therapy (i) on the breast as adjuvant treatment after breast conserving surgery (BCS) or (ii) on thoracic wall for Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL). Nevertheless, selected patients with favourable preoperative soft-tissue assessment may benefit from alloplastic reconstruction and fat grafting that has been suggested as an effective technique to promote the regeneration of irradiated tissues. The aims of this study are to assess: 1. the feasibility of implant-based breast reconstruction and fat grafting after mastectomy (simple mastectomy, nipple-sparing and skin-sparing mastectomy) 2. oncological safety of implant-based breast reconstruction and fat grafting.
The purpose of this study is to assess if adding LY3537982 in combination with standard of care anti-cancer drugs is more effective than standard of care in participants with untreated advanced NSCLC. NSCLC must have a change in a gene called KRAS G12C. Study participation, including follow-up, could last up to 3 years, depending on how you and your lung cancer are doing.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about endothelial damage in major spine surgery, expressed as rise in circulating Syndecan-1. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the extent of endothelial glycocalyx shedding in major spine surgery? - Are there differences in different type of surgical populations? (adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, adult degenerative spine disease, oncologic surgery) To do so, blood samples will be drawn from participants at the following timepoints: - basal - after surgery - if transfusion of Fresh Frozen Plasma: before and after transfusion - Post-Operative Day 1-2-4
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Quantum Molecular Resonance (QMR) treatment in patients with severe dry eye disease (DED), as well as its effects on aqueous-deficient (ADDE), evaporative (EDE) and mixed (MDE) dry eye.
The goal of this retrospective observational study is to evaluate any possible association between plasma concentrations of ponatinib and its pharmacodynamics (efficacy/tolerability) in patients affected by chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP). In particular, the aims of the study will be: - primary aim: to investigate the relationships (if any) between plasma concentrations and activity/toxicity of ponatinib in a population of CML-CP patients enrolled in several Italian hematological centers; - secondary aim: to set up an algorithm aimed at helping physicians to improve drug dosing based on several variables (i.e., plasma drug concentrations, tolerability, molecular response to therapy). The study will enroll CML-CP patients who were exposed to ponatinib as second, third or fourth line of chemotherapy.
To evaluate and compare the visual outcomes of an enhanced monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) with two different monofocal IOLs in patients scheduled for bilateral cataract surgery.
The research study is being done to see if ziltivekimab can be used to treat people who were admitted to hospital because of a heart attack. Ziltivekimab might reduce development of heart disease, thereby preventing new heart attacks or strokes. Participants will either get ziltivekimab (active medicine) or placebo (a dummy medicine which has no effect on the body). Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. The chance of getting ziltivekimab or placebo is the same. Ziltivekimab is not yet approved in any country or region in the world. It is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe. The study will last for about 2 years.
The primary purpose of this study is evaluate the safety and tolerability of fenfluramine hydrochloride (HCl) 0.2 to 0.8 mg/kg/day in infants 1 year to less than 2 years of age with Dravet syndrome.
This is a parallel, Phase 2, 2-arm, double-blind, randomized, multicenter, multinational, placebo-controlled study to evaluate efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and biological effects of treatment of subcutaneous injection of amlitelimab compared with placebo in male and female participants aged 18 to 70 years with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). The purpose of this study is to measure standardized clinician reported and participant-reported outcomes (ClinRO and PRO), safety, and drug concentration. An optional long-term extension (LTE) period will assess chronic safety and efficacy over an additional 80 weeks of amlitelimab treatment. Study details include: - The study duration will be up to 116 weeks, including a 4-week Screening period, a 16-week double-blind treatment period (DBT), an optional 80-week LTE period and a 16-week post-treatment follow-up period. - All participants who complete the 16-week DBT period will be offered entry into an optional LTE. - Participants who do not wish to enter the optional LTE period or who stop treatment prior to Week 16 (Visit 6) or stop investigational medicinal product (IMP) administration prior to completing the LTE period will proceed into the 16-week post-treatment follow-up period. - The number of planned in clinic visits will be up to six during the DBT period with an additional nine during the LTE period, plus one post-treatment follow-up end-of-study visit. Up to 11 optional in clinic visits are allowed for participants who do not wish to self-administer IMP between scheduled in clinic visits during the LTE period.
This is an observational study in which only data will be collected from adults with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. These adults should be prescribed a different treatment after treatment with atezolizumab and bevacizumab, or another similar combination of drugs, by their doctors. Unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) is a type of liver cancer that cannot be treated with surgery. In the past, sorafenib was the only approved first-line anti-cancer drug for people with uHCC. Regorafenib and other drugs were approved as second-line treatments for uHCC if a person could not take sorafenib or it stopped working for them. Lately, another first-line (1L) treatment called immuno-oncology (IO) immune checkpoint inhibitor combination (1L-IO combo), like atezolizumab with bevacizumab (AB), has become the preferred choice of treatment. This is because of the meaningful impact on patient survival. 1L-IO combo are drugs that help the body's defense system recognize and kill cancer cells. Since the other treatments were previously approved for use following sorafenib, the best order to take these treatments in following an 1L-IO combo is unknown. To better understand and determine this order, more knowledge is needed about how well different treatments work in participants with uHCC who have been treated with AB or another 1L-IO combo. The main purpose of this study is to learn more about how well different treatments work when given after first-line treatment with AB or another approved 1L-IO combo. To do this, researchers will collect data on how long the participants live (also called overall survival) from the start of any treatment given after the first-line treatment. In addition, researchers will also collect the following information to learn more about the participants who will be given a different treatment after the 1L-IO combo: - characteristics including age, sex, and race, and signs and symptoms of the participants over the duration of their first-line treatment - the length of time from the first to the last dose (also called duration of therapy) of the treatments given after the 1L-IO combo - the length of time until a participant's cancer worsens, or they die (also called progression free survival) from the start of the treatments given after the 1L-IO combo - the number of participants whose tumor completely disappears or shrinks (also called overall tumor response) after taking the treatments given after the 1L-IO combo - the sequence of treatments given after the 1L-IO combo Data will be collected from September 2023 to December 2026 and cover a period of around 3 years. The data will be collected using medical records or by interviewing the participants during their routine visits to the doctor. Researchers will observe participants from the start of the treatment given after the 1L-IO combo until the end of their participation in the study. In this study, only data from routine care will be collected. No visits or tests are required as part of this study.
