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.
OTL-300 is a gene therapy drug product consisting of autologous hematopoietic stem/progenitor cluster of differentiation (CD) 34+ cells genetically modified with a lentiviral vector (GLOBE) encoding the human beta globin gene. The TIGET-BTHAL is a phase I/II study evaluating safety and efficacy of OTL-300 in subjects with transfusion dependent beta-thalassemia for two years post gene-therapy. Subjects with rare disease who have undergone gene therapy are followed for efficacy and possible delayed adverse events. Thus, this study is designed to follow patients who have received gene therapy on TIGET-BTHAL for an additional six years (for a total of eight years).
This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will compare the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of polatuzumab vedotin plus R-CHP versus R-CHOP in participants with previously untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
The international and multicentre ORANGE SEGMENTS - Trial is a prospective, double blinded, randomized controlled study comparing patients undergoing parenchymal preserving resection of postero-superior liver segments (involving one or two of segments 4a, 7, 8). All patients will be participating in an enhanced recovery programme. Primary outcome is time to functional recovery. Secondary study parameters include hospital length of stay, intraoperative blood loss, operation time, liver specific morbidity, readmission percentage, resection margin, quality of life, body image and cosmesis , reasons for delay of discharge after functional recovery, long term incidence of incisional hernias, hospital and societal costs during one year, time to adjuvant chemotherapy initiation, overall five-year survival.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of pevonedistat and azacitidine improves event-free survival (EFS) when compared with single-agent azacitidine. (An event is defined as death or transformation to AML in participants with MDS or CMML, whichever occurs first, and is defined as death in participants with low-blast AML).
Not-randomized controlled study to evaluate a community intervention to promote self-efficacy parenting. The treated group will be composed by all newborns resident in S.Ilario d'Enza (105 in 2013) where the Baby Newsletter is implemented. Newborns resident in the Health District of Montecchio and born in Montecchio Hospital in the same period are the control group (278 in 2013). Preterm or hospitalized children are excluded. Self-efficacy parenting is evaluated through a questionnaire administered at baseline, after 5 and 12 months.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether withdrawal of aminosalicylate (5-ASA) is non-inferior to continuation of 5-ASA therapy in Crohn's disease (CD) subjects in remission.
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.
HALT is a phase II, randomised multi-centre study with integrated seamless continuation to phase III trial following acceptable safety and feasibility assessment. HALT aims to recruit 110 patients with mutation positive advanced NSCLC with oligoprogressive disease (OPD) following initial response to a Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI).
Octreotide capsule is a novel, orally-administered formulation of the commercially-available injectable drug octreotide. In a recent phase 3 trial, oral octreotide capsules demonstrated maintenance of biochemical response up to 13 months in the majority of patients with acromegaly previously managed with somatostatin analog injections (reference below).
Some human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) breast cancer patients do not respond or become resistant to current treatment. DS-8201a is a new experimental product that is a combination of an antibody and a drug. It has not yet been approved for use. DS-8201a may slow down tumor growth. This might improve outcomes for these patients.
