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.
Every three seconds someone in the world develops dementia. There are over 50 million people worldwide living with dementia and by 2030 this figure is expected to reach 82 million. Besides time-consuming patient investigations with low discriminative power for dementia risk, current treatment options focus on late symptom management. By screening brain connectivity and dementia risk estimation in people affected by mild cognitive impairment, the European Union (EU) funded AI-Mind project will open the door to extending the 'dementia-free' period by offering proper diagnosis and early intervention. AI-Mind will develop two artificial intelligence-based digital tools that will identify dysfunctional brain networks and assess dementia risk. Personalised patient reports will be generated, potentially opening new windows for intervention possibilities.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which is caused by the virus Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has resulted in an ongoing global pandemic. It is unclear whether the relatively low number of reported cases of COVID-19 in people with CF (pwCF) is due to enhanced infection prevention practices or whether pwCF have protective genetic/immune factors. This study aims to prospectively assess the proportion of pwCF, including both adults and children with CF who have evidence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies over a two-year period. This study will also examine whether pwCF who have antibodies for SARS-CoV-2 have a different clinical presentation and what impact this has on their CF disease. The proposed study will recruit pwCF from paediatric and adult CF centres throughout the United Kingdom. Serological testing to detect antibodies will be performed on blood samples taken at month 0, 6, 12, 18 and 24 with additional time-points if bloodwork is available via normal clinical care. Clinical data on, lung function, CF-related medical history, pulmonary exacerbations, antibiotic use, and microbiology and vaccination receipt, will be collected during routine clinical assessments. Associations will be examined between socio-demographic and clinical variables and serologic testing. The investigators will also examine the effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on clinical outcomes and analyse end-points to explore any age-related or gender-based differences, as well as subgroup analysis of outcomes in lung-transplant recipients and pwCF receiving cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapies. As pwCF receive COVID-19 vaccination the investigators will perform a comparison of the development and progression of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in pwCF following natural infection and vaccination SARS-CoV-2 over time.
The purpose of this Phase III study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tozorakimab Dose 1 and Dose 2 administered subcutaneously (SC) in adult participants with symptomatic COPD and history of ≥ 2 moderate or ≥ 1 severe exacerbation of COPD in the previous 12 months. Participants should be receiving optimised treatment with maintenance inhaled therapy (ICS/LABA/LAMA triple therapy, or dual therapy if triple is not considered appropriate) in stable doses throughout at least 3 months prior to enrolment.
Primary Objectives: - Cohort A: To evaluate the efficacy of BIVV020 in prevention of AMR - Cohort B: To evaluate the efficacy of BIVV020 in treatment of active AMR Secondary Objectives: - To assess the overall efficacy of BIVV020 in prevention or treatment of AMR - To characterize the safety and tolerability of BIVV020 in kidney transplant participants - To characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of BIVV020 in kidney transplant participants - To evaluate the immunogenicity of BIVV020
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of rimegepant to placebo as a preventative treatment for migraine in children and adolescents ≥ 6 to <18 years with episodic migraine.
To compare the efficacy and safety of remibrutinib versus teriflunomide in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS)
A Phase 1 first-in-human dose-escalation and dose-expansion study of BMF-219, an oral covalent menin inhibitor, in adult patients with AML, ALL (with KMT2A/ MLL1r, NPM1 mutations), DLBCL, MM, and CLL/SLL.
Multicenter, open-label, randomized, controlled phase III clinical trial to evaluate and compare the activity and safety of two experimental arms consisting of lurbinectedin as single agent (Group A) or the combination of lurbinectedin with irinotecan (Group B) versus Investigator's Choice (topotecan or irinotecan) as control arm (Group C), in Small-cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) patients who failed one prior platinum-containing line.
This study is being done to find out if zanidatamab, when given with chemotherapy plus or minus tislelizumab, is safe and works better than trastuzumab given with chemotherapy. The patients in this study will have advanced human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)-positive stomach and esophageal cancers that are no longer treatable with surgery (unresectable) or chemoradiation, and/or have grown or spread to other parts of the body (metastatic).
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a rare, autoimmune, cholestatic liver disease. No data about the disease epidemiology exist in Italy. Therefore this study aims to develop a national PBC patient database linked to a biological sample storage.
