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 purpose of this neoadjuvant study is to compare nivolumab plus chemotherapy and chemotherapy alone in terms of safety and effectiveness, and to describe nivolumab plus ipilimumab's safety and effectiveness in treating resectable NSCLC. This study has multiple primary endpoints.
Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) is an aggressive and rare cancer of myeloid cells (a white blood cell responsible for fighting infections). Successful treatment of AML is dependent on what subtype of AML the participant has, and the age of the participant when diagnosed. Venetoclax is an experimental drug that kills cancer cells by blocking a protein (part of a cell) that allows cancer cells to stay alive. This study is designed to see if adding venetoclax to azacitidine works better than azacitidine on its own. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind (treatment is unknown to participants and doctors), placebo controlled study in patients with AML who are >= 18 or more years old and have not been treated before. Participants who take part in this study should not be suitable for standard induction therapy (usual starting treatment). AbbVie is funding this study which will take place at approximately 180 hospitals globally and enroll approximately 400 participants. In this study, 2/3 of participants will receive venetoclax every day with azacitidine and the remaining 1/3 will receive placebo (dummy) tablets with azacitidine. Participants will continue to have study visits and receive treatment for as long as they are having a clinical benefit. The effect of the treatment on AML will be checked by taking blood, bone marrow, scans, measuring side effects and by completing health questionnaires. Blood and bone marrow tests will be completed to see why some people respond better than others. Additional blood tests will be completed for genetic factors and to see how long the drug remains in the body.
All the patients hospitalized in the neuro-rehabilitation after a severe acquired brain injury carrying a tracheal cannula will be retrospectively analyzed. Patients coming from emergency department started a rehabilitative treatment during their hospitalization in ICU. Patients transferred from an external ICU started the rehabilitation in neurorehabilitation department. Aim of the study is to evaluate if an early rehabilitation, started since the acute stage of the damage, is able to reduce the decannulation time in this group of patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of nivolumab followed by ipilimumab, in subjects with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumor activity, as well as confirm the recommended dose of brentuximab vedotin (ADCETRIS) in combination with a multiagent chemotherapy regimen, doxorubicin (Adriamycin), vinblastine, and dacarbazine, in pediatric participants with advanced stage newly diagnosed classical CD30+ Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL).
The purpose of this study is to determine how participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, and evidence of a homologous recombination gene deficiency, respond to treatment with rucaparib versus treatment with physician's choice of abiraterone acetate, enzalutamide, or docetaxel.
This is a prospective observational trial consisting of robotic multisession radiosurgery (CyberKnife ®) for large and medium size and/or located at critical site benign intracranial meningiomas.
The study is a prospective, randomized controlled phase III trial aimed to test the efficacy and safety of TTFields, using the NovoTTF-200T device, concurrent with standard therapies for stage 4 NSCLC patients, following progression while on or after platinum based treatment. The device is an experimental, portable, battery operated device for chronic administration of alternating electric fields (termed TTFields or TTF) to the region of the malignant tumor, by means of surface, insulated electrode arrays.
This study is evaluating the efficacy of acalabrutinib in combination with bendamustine and rituximab (BR) compared with placebo plus BR in subjects with previously untreated mantle cell lymphoma.
This is an open label non-comparative controlled randomized phase II study. The experimental arm is the group receiving ODM-201. The group receiving androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) is included as an internal control. The primary trial objective is to demonstrate that ODM-201 produces prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response rates at 24 weeks (defined as ≥80% reduction compared to baseline) that are in the range of those achieved with 24 weeks of ADT. In total, this 1:1 randomized study will therefore require randomization of at least 250 patients, 125 to each arm.
