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.
PREcoopERA is a randomized (2:2:1), multicenter, open-label, three-arm (A, B, C), Window-of-Opportunity (WOO) trial to evaluate the activity and safety of giredestrant (A) versus giredestrant plus triptorelin (B) versus anastrozole plus triptorelin (C).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of Cook's various Custom-Made Stent-graft Devices (CMD) used for endovascular treatment of the aorta and related diseases by collecting information on the real-world use of the devices. The study results will be used to support the continuation of the CMDs on the market. In addition, the study will support the manufacturers obligation for post market product surveillance as well as Cook's technology development.
Metabolic surgery has, among all obesity treatments, the best long term efficacy, but weight regain (weight regain, WR) or insufficient weight loss (IWL) are relatively common. These are hard to treat, with dietary treatment often failing, and redo surgery being commonly proposed.The ketogenic diet is vastly utilised to obtain weight loss in obesity, but little data is available regarding its application on post bariatric patients. Ad hoc designed studies are needed to confirm the efficacy and safety of a VLCKD in the treatment of WR and IWL. The aim of this study is to test whether the ketogenic diet is a safe and effective treatment in post bariatric weight regain, compared to its application before bariatric surgery.
The aim of the present split-mouth study was to investigate the effect of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) in improving the post-extraction tooth socket healing in subjects with diabetes mellitus type 2. The null hypothesis was that HA can significantly improve the post extractive healing of diabetic patients compared with no treatment. 36 patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 requiring bilateral extraction of the homologous, not included, teeth were enrolled. After the extractions carried out in the same appointment, following the split-mouth design of the study, one site was randomly assigned to the test (T) group, while the other one was assigned to the control group (C). T group included: Post-operative application of Hyaluronic acid gels 3 times per day C group included: no treatment. Patients were then followed after 3, 7,14 and 21 days and the healing of each socket was evaluated and compared between the 2 groups.
The purpose of the study is to understand how the study medicine PF-06823859 works in people with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (DM and PM). These disorders cause inflammation that weakens the muscles that are important for movement and may also cause skin rash in people with DM. This study is seeking participants who: - Are 18 years of age or older or minimum legal adult age as defined per local regulation, whichever is greater - Have active DM or active PM. - Are receiving a stable dose of 1 corticosteroid taken by mouth and/or 1 traditional immunosuppressant. - Note: Corticosteroids and immunosuppressants are medicines that help reduce inflammation and may signal to the immune system not to attack the body. Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare disease that causes muscle inflammation that results in muscle weakness and low muscle stamina. Patients with DM have a characteristic skin rash. Polymyositis (PM) is a rare disease that involves mainly muscle inflammation resulting in muscle weakness, that can sometimes be painful. Patients with DM and PM may have trouble going up the steps, walking or getting to a standing position. Some of the participants will receive the study medicine (PF-06823859) and some will receive placebo (which is similar to study medicine but contains no medicine in it). The study medicine or placebo will be given as an intravenous (IV) infusion (directly into the veins), which takes about1 hour; every 4 weeks from Day 1 to Week 48 of the study. Both PF-06823859 and placebo and will be given at the study site. The study will compare the experiences of people receiving study medication to those of the people who do not. This will help to see if PF-06823859 is safe and effective. Participants will take part in this study for about 13 months. During this time, participants will have 15 study visits. These visits will be performed at the study site.
All patients with orthotopic liver transplantation who are evaluated and followed at each participating centers will be recorded in this study. Within this register a characterization of patients and therapy will be done. Prognostic factors of defined clinical relevant endpoints will be evaluated.
Recently, many families have been formed through gamete donation, a reproductive treatment where the ensuing children do not share a genetic link with either parents. However, despite such an increase, little is known about the parent-child relationship. Indeed, only two longitudinal studies have provided scientific background about family functioning in gamete donation. These studies showed that in egg donation families, the parent-child relationship was normal for parenting, parent psychological health, and child adjustment. A more recent study evaluated mother-infant interaction in egg donation families comparing them with those created through IVF with their own gametes. Data collected showed that in egg donation families the mother-infant relationship quality appeared to be less optimal. Mothers were less interactive and stimulating, and infants showed lower involvement and less responsiveness with respect to their mothers Overall, the evidence suggests that women conceiving through egg donation likely require a variable period of adaptation to parenting. Here, the investigators aim to evaluate this interaction at an earlier stage, that is during the gestation. The specific bond that parents develop towards the fetus during pregnancy is called "parental-fetus attachment". Previous studies showed that the quality of the parental-fetus attachment is predictive of the quality of the postnatal parent-infant relationship and the child development The purpose is to evaluate whether the lack of genetic link with their offspring could undermine the parental attachment to the fetus, comparing couples conceiving through egg donation with those who get pregnant through a standard IVF treatment with their own gametes. No studies have been performed so far on this matter. To assess the mother-father fetus attachment, the investigators will administer standardized and validated questionnaires to couples undergoing IVF with their own gametes, or egg donation cycles. For women, the investigators will use the Maternal Antenatal Attachment Scale . For men, the investigators will use the Paternal Antenatal Attachment Scale (PAAS-IT) . Furthermore, to also assess the emotional status of both partners, the investigators will use the Matthey Generic Mood Questionnaire . Seeing that in the general population the maternal-fetal attachment level increases once women have completed the principal prenatal genetic screenings (like NIPT, CVS or amnio) and once they start perceiving the fetal movements, the investigators will administer the same questionnaire twice: between the 19-23 weeks and between the 28-32 weeks of gestation. This approach will enable monitoring of the evolution of the maternal and paternal fetal attachment at relevant gestational time-points. As a result of the knowledge gathered from this study, the investigators will be able to develop a specific intervention strategy to promote this fundamental process for egg donation families.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of inavolisib in combination with Phesgo (pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and rHuPH20 injection for subcutaneous use) compared with placebo in combination with Phesgo, as maintenance therapy, after induction therapy in participants with previously untreated HER2-positive advanced breast cancer (ABC).
The purpose of this study is to identify radiological factors on TC of the hip that could lead to prediction of development of symptomatic psoas impingement in patients with protruding acetabular cup after primary total hip arthroplasty.
The study aims at investigating the possible correlation between core stability muscles and urinary incontinence following Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy. Sixty-two patients who are candidates for Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy will be enrolled. All participants will be asked to be evaluated in their core stability functionality 30-40 days before Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy intervention. The core stability functionality result will be correlated with the urinary incontinence 45-50 days after intervention.
