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.
Olaparib Monotherapy in Patients with BRCA Mutated Ovarian Cancer following First Line Platinum Based Chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to show that Nivolumab and/or Nivolumab in combination with Ipilimumab will extend progression free survival and overall survival compared to Ipilimumab alone.
This is a Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study. Subjects with unresectable pleural or peritoneal malignant mesothelioma will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either tremelimumab or placebo. Approximately 564 subjects will be enrolled at study centers in multiple countries. The study consists of a screening period, a treatment period, a 90-day follow-up period for safety, and a long-term survival follow-up period.
Worldwide over 2 million adults (>30,000 Canadians) undergo heart surgery annually. Although heart surgery provides important survival benefits, it is associated with potential major complications such as death, stroke, and heart attack. There is promising evidence that measurement of heart injury markers after surgery will identify patients at risk of death or major complications. This study will determine the current incidence of major complications in a representative sample of 15,000 contemporary adult patients undergoing heart surgery. Knowing the current burden of complications will inform clinicians, administrators, government and granting agencies about resources required to address the problem. This study will also establish the role of measuring heart injury markers to identify important heart injury after heart surgery and the proportion that would go undetected without routine heart injury marker monitoring. This information will facilitate further studies of timely interventions. In summary, the VISION Cardiac Surgery Study addresses fundamental questions that will have profound public health implications given the millions of adults worldwide who undergo heart surgery annually.
Young patients requiring myocardial revascularization are generally considered at low operative risk, but data on their immediate and late outcome are scarce. The decision-making process in these young patients is complicated by the potentially aggressive nature of premature coronary artery disease and their likely long expectancy of life, which expose them to a significantly higher risk of recurrent coronary events as well as the need of repeat revascularization. The lack of data on long-term outcome as well as on operative details (in particular, on the use of arterial grafts) and peri- and postoperative medication prevent any conclusive results on the durability either of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in these young patients. Furthermore, recent advances in stents technology as well in peri- and postoperative medical treatment indicate the need a comparative study to define the baseline characteristics of patients aged < 50 years undergoing either PCI or CABG and to evaluate their current immediate and late outcome.
This clinical study has the objective to compare the longevity and the clinical behaviour (CDA Index, soft tissue behavior, success and survival rates) of single cemented ceramic crowns made with shaded zirconia (NobelProceraTM Shaded Zirconia) and NobelProceraTM full contour crowns IPS e.max CAD lithium disilicate on molars.
This is a Phase III, multicenter, open-label, randomized and controlled study to compare the efficacy of a consolidation therapy with RIT versus ASCT in patients with FL in CR or PR after second or third line chemotherapy supplemented with rituximab.
The purpose of this study is to assess the prevalence of Gluten Sensitivity, by a double-blind placebo-controlled challenge with gluten, followed by two months period of Low-FODMAPs (Fermentable Oligosaccharides Disaccharides Monosaccharides And Polyols) diet, in patients spontaneously adherent to gluten free diet because of symptoms upon gluten exposure and in whom diagnosis of Celiac Disease and Wheat Allergy has been ruled out.
Objective of this trial is to establish the efficacy of an upfront targeted therapy consisting of Chlamydophila psittaci (Cp)-eradicating therapy with prolonged administration of doxycycline followed by eradication monitoring and antibiotic re-treatment at infection re-occurrence in patients with newly diagnosed ocular adnexae marginal zone lymphoma The primary endpoint is the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) of patients with newly diagnosed stage-IE lymphoma treated with the experimental strategy.
Single arm phase II study of Chlorambucil in combination with subcutaneous Rituximab followed by maintenance therapy with subcutaneous Rituximab in patients with histologically proven diagnosis of CD20-positive marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of MALT type arisen at any extranodal site, either de novo, or relapsed following local therapy (including surgery, radiotherapy and antibiotics for H. pylori-positive gastric lymphoma).
