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.
Multiple studies have reported on the impact of factors such as female age, duration of infertility, type of infertility, hormone levels (i.e. AMH, FSH, estradiol, progesterone), use of different ovarian stimulation protocols, timing/induction of ovulation, number of pre-ovulatory follicles, endometrial thickness by the time of ovulation, sperm parameters (i.e. concentration, progressive motility, morphology, total motile sperm count [TMSC], inseminating motile count [IMC]) and sperm washing procedures. Also the influence of body mass index and smoking on IUI outcome have been studied before. However, results on the predictive value of these parameters remain highly contradictory. The aim of the study is to examine the value of different variables in the prediction of IUI success to develop a clinically useful predictive model of pregnancy and live birth.
The study will evaluate effectiveness of flexible dose vortioxetine 10-20 mg/day on emotional functioning in patients with MDD with an inadequate response to SSRIs/SNRIs.
This study evaluates the possibility and the safety of performing local therapy for Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNENs) using radiofrequency ablation of the tumor under ultrasonography (EUS) guidance.
Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) are increasingly used in intensive care unit (ICU) as an alternative to centrally inserted central catheters (CICCs) for intravenous infusion. In the present study we try to assess their reliability for measuring cardiac index (CI) with trans-pulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) technique.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the combination of the polyadenosine 5'-diphosphoribose poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor olaparib and pembrolizumab in the treatment of participants with mCRPC who have failed to respond to either abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide (but not both) and to chemotherapy. The primary study hypotheses are that the combination of pembrolizumab plus olaparib is superior to abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide with respect to: 1. Overall Survival (OS) and 2. Radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) per Prostate Cancer Working Group (PCWG)-modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) As of Amendment 06, the Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) is no longer applicable. Participants still on treatment may have the option to continue receiving study intervention or SOC if they are deriving clinical benefit, until criteria for discontinuation are met. Participants who are still on study treatment and deriving clinical benefit will no longer have tumor response assessments by BICR. However, local tumor imaging assessments should continue per SOC schedule. In addition, ePRO assessments will no longer be performed and biomarker samples will no longer be collected.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the combination of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) and docetaxel in the treatment of men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have not received chemotherapy for mCRPC but have progressed on or are intolerant to Next Generation Hormonal Agent (NHA). There are two primary study hypotheses. Hypothesis 1: The combination of pembrolizumab plus docetaxel plus prednisone is superior to placebo plus docetaxel plus prednisone with respect to Overall Survival (OS). Hypothesis 2: The combination of pembrolizumab plus docetaxel plus prednisone is superior to placebo plus docetaxel plus prednisone with respect to Radiographic Progression-free Survival (rPFS) per Prostate Cancer Working Group (PCWG)-modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) as assessed by blinded independent central review.
In the next years a number of phase 2-3 trials which utilize experimental drugs possibly disease modifying for Alzheimer Dementia will reach their conclusion. This dense clinical trials activity has triggered a fundamental question both from Patients and Scientific Communities and Health Authorities/Insurances: on which basis will the new drugs -if effective-be distributed to patients or at-risk population? This question mainly deals with the "MCI prodromal to AD"condition since the MCI population actually includes about 50% of those who will progress to AD (the real "prodromic to AD" MCI form) while the remaining 50% will never convert to AD. The INTERCEPTOR project is focused on the prodromic AD condition (IWG2) or the MCI condition (NIA-AA) which form the neuropsychological point of view and is characterized by means of: cognitive questionnaires, screening test (MMSE), extended neuropsychological evaluation. The study is an observational, longitudinal cohort one, in which the baseline clinical and biomarkers characteristics of the enrolled MCI subjects at baseline will be compared for those classified as "AD converters" after 3.0 years of follow-up with respect to those "non-converters". MCI subjects who will convert to other forms of dementia will be examined separately. It will be considered the conversion to Alzheimer's disease within 3.0 years after diagnosis of MCI, together with the assessment of those who remain in a stable condition and those who have a reversion to normal cognitive profile. People with MCI who convert to other forms of dementia will be considered separately. The biomarker or a set of biomarkers that can predict the conversion to Alzheimer's disease with higher accuracy will be evaluated.
MAF-1217 is meant as the medical device which is to be effective in most forms of DED; therefore, it is expected that study patients benefit from study participation, and can reduce the signs and symptoms of surgery induced DED in patients undergoing cataract surgery, in a TID application pre-surgery.
This is a pre-market, multicentre, double-blind, randomized, crossover, non-inferiority study comparing the efficacy of MAF-1217 and Cationorm® in adult patients with evaporative DED. The study population will be divided in 4 different subgroups, according to the different types of evaporative DED: 1. Group A: high evaporative levels 2. Group B: females in menopause, whether using hormonal integration or not 3. Group C: presence of active obstructive Meibomian gland disease 4. Group D: glaucomatous patients
The objective of this study was to investigate the aesthetic performance of the Hyaluronic acid (HA)-based dermal filler Profhilo® injected by a novel bio aesthetic point technique ("BAP" technique) in woman aged 40-65 years with mild-moderate skin flaccidity and roughness of the abdomen and inner arms.
