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.
Prospective, multinational, multicentre, observational cohort study of neonatal sepsis in partner institutions. The cohort study will be designed to evaluate health care utilization and current clinical practice and to assess risk factors for and outcomes of babies with neonatal sepsis (culture-negative and culture-positive).
Esophageal balloon calibration (EBC) has been proposed during controlled mechanical ventilation in intubated patients in order to optimize esophageal pressure (Pes) signal. Actually, at our knowledge, no data exist about EBC during assisted ventilatory modes such as Pressure Support Ventilation (PSV). The primary endpoint of the present investigation is to assess the feasibility of EBC during PSV and PSV plus Sigh.
The purpose of this study is to describe the 2-year retention rate of ibrutinib treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) in Italian routine clinical practice.
B7451029 is a Phase 3 study to investigate PF-04965842 in adult patients who have moderate to severe atopic dermatitis and use background topical therapy. The efficacy of two dosage strengths of PF-04965842, 100 mg and 200 mg taken orally once daily will be evaluated relative to placebo over 12 weeks. The efficacy of the two dosage strengths of PF-04965842 will be compared with dupilumab in terms of pruritus relief at 2 weeks. The two dosage strengths of PF-04965842 and dupilumab 300 mg injected subcutaneously once every two weeks (with a loading dose of 600 mg injected on the first day) will also be evaluated relative to placebo over 16 weeks. The safety of the investigational products will be evaluated over the duration of the study. Subjects will use non-medicated emollient at least twice a day and medicated topical therapy such as corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors or PDE4 inhibitors, as per protocol guidance, to treat active lesions during the study. Subjects who are randomized to receive one of the two dosage strengths of PF-04965842 will also receive placebo injectable study drug every two weeks until Week 16 and then will continue on receiving only the oral study drug for 4 weeks. Subjects who are randomized to receive dupilumab injections every two weeks will also receive oral placebo to be taken once daily until Week 16 and will then continue to receive only the oral placebo for 4 weeks. Subjects who are randomized to the placebo arms, will receive both daily oral placebo and injectable placebo every two weeks until Week 16, after which they will receive either 100 mg or 200 mg of PF-04965842 taken orally once daily for 4 weeks, dependent upon which arm they have been allocated to. Eligible subjects will have an option to enter a long-term extension study after completing 20 weeks of treatment.
Acute pain may occur due to trauma, surgery, infection, disruption of blood circulation or when there is tissue injury. It can be managed using analgesics and conduction anaesthesia, which may be preferable because of superior pain control and fewer side effects. Lidocaine hydrochloride is used topically to relieve itching, burning and pain from skin inflammation. This multicentric observational study is aimed to evaluate the relief gained with lidocaine hydrochloride (ORTODERMINA®) on wound pain in patients with painful wounds and to collect safety information on this treatment.
This prospective, multicentric study investigates the modifications of pulmonary microbiome that occur in patients who need mechanical ventilation for non-pulmonary conditions. Genomic analysis will be performed by 16S RNA amplification on biological samples (bronchial aspirate) collected from patients.
An international, multicenter, open-label, 2 cohort, non-comparative, pivotal study evaluating the efficacy of tipifarnib in HRAS mutant HNSCC (AIM-HN). The first cohort will assess the objective response rate (ORR) of tipifarnib in subjects with HNSCC with HRAS mutations. The second study cohort, SEQ-HN, is an observational sub-study including HNSCC patients in whom HRAS mutations were not identified (wild type HRAS HNSCC) and who consent to provide first line outcome data and additional follow up.
Two LNF-containing regimens will be evaluated in the D-LIVR Phase 3 study: (1) LNF/RTV/PEG IFN-alfa-2a and (2) LNF/RTV. Each of these arms will have efficacy endpoints that measure clinical benefit with regard to viral suppression and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normalization. For each LNF-containing regimen, a composite endpoint of EOT (48 weeks) virologic response and ALT normalization will be used. Virologic response will be defined as a 2 log10 IU/mL reduction from baseline.
The Physiologic Pacing Registry is a prospective, observational, multi-center registry performed to gain a broader understanding of 1) physiologic pacing implant and follow-up workflows, including pacing and sensing measurements and 2) the clinical utility in creating a 3-dimensional electro-anatomical map of cardiac structures prior to physiologic pacing device implants based on the clinical site's routine care.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignancy worldwide and is often metastatic at diagnosis. Despite progresses in surgical techniques and the introduction of novel chemotherapy regimens, many patients still suffer from a poor prognosis. It is therefore of utmost importance to identify prognostic markers that may improve selection of patients. In recent years several studies demonstrated that preoperative blood tests as platelet count or neuthophil-to-lymphocyte ratio could be prognostic factors in CRC as well as other malignancies. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of preoperative platelet count (PC) in patients with synchronous colorectal liver metastases.
