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.
Comparison of humidification devices during non invasive ventilation, in acute respiratory failure. The hypothesis was, due to dead space, lower humidification, a reduced efficiency of the technique (NIV) when HME are used in comparison with HH.
This trial is conducted globally. The purpose of the trial is to evaluate that activated recombinant human factor VII (eptacog alfa (activated)) is safe and effective in severely injured trauma patients by assessing mortality and morbidity. Please note that this trial and trial F7TRAUMA-1648 (NCT00323570) have been merged.
To simplify and improve the diagnostic approach to patients with clinically suspected recurrent DVT by determining whether the results of the combination of IPG and d-dimer testing, using a whole blood agglutination assay, can be used in the management of such patients.
The study will assess the relative benefit of cabergoline vs carbidopa/levodopa therapy in treating nighttime problems of Parkinson Disease.
To show whether addition of thrombolytic treatment by a single bolus injection of tenecteplase prior to early standard PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) will improve the clinical outcome in patients with large acute myocardial infarcts as compared to primary PCI alone.
The overall purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy, safety and tolerability of indisulam in combination with capecitabine (IC) versus capecitabine (C) monotherapy in patients with metastatic breast cancer who have previously been treated with an anthracycline and a taxane.
Prolongation of the EPAAC™ trial - NCT00152464 (The Early Prevention of Asthma in Atopic Children). 36 months study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of levocetirizine (LCTZ) in preventing the onset of asthma in young atopic children.
Aspirin is commonly used for treatment of painful and inflammatory diseases and in the prevention of the cardiovascular disease. A major drawback of aspirin treatment is the well recognized gastrointestinal toxicity. Recent research indicate that coupling a nitric oxide (NO)derivate to the aspirin moiety retains its therapeutic effects while avoiding its undesirable gastrointestinal side effects. NO has cytoprotective effects, such as blood flow modulation, mucus release and repair of mucosal injury. NCX4016, a NO-releasing derivative of acetylsalicilic acid, has been shown to retain the analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antithrombotic activity of aspirin, but with less gastrointestinal toxicity. In addition, preliminary data suggested that NCX4016 may restore insulin sensitivity in eNOS deficient mice. This study was aimed to evaluate the activity of NCX4016, compared to aspirin, on albuminuria, insulin sensitivity and cardiac and renal hemodynamic in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The patients after one month of placebo treatment, entered two 1-month treatments periods, with equivalent doses (800 mg of NCX4016, 325 mg of aspirin) of NCX4016 or aspirin.
The general aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of tenecteplase to standard treatment during cardiopulmonary resuscitation in patients suffering from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, South America and the United States of America (USA). The trial is planned to investigate the safety and efficacy of NovoSeven® in the management of post-operative bleeding in patients following cardiac surgery.
