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.
The aim of the study is to compare the 6 months clinical outcome of the treatment with a single intra-articular collagen injection versus a single placebo (saline solution) infiltration in the infiltrative treatment of knee osteoarthritis. The evaluation will be performed through clinical, subjective and objective assessments.
This is an open-label, two-part Phase 2 study investigating CGT9486 for the treatment of patients with Advanced Systemic Mastocytosis (AdvSM), including patients with Aggressive SM (ASM), SM with Associated Hematologic Neoplasm (SM-AHN), and Mast Cell Leukemia (MCL).
This is a multicentric double-blind, placebo controlled, phase III trial. In this study, patients who underwent to a surgical resection of pleural mesothelioma and are without signs of macroscopic residual disease will be randomized 2:1 to receive atezolizumab or placebo. Patients will be treated for 12 months or until recurrence, unacceptable toxicity or patient/physician decision, whichever occurs first. Randomization will be done via a centralized system and patients will be stratified histology (epithelioid vs non epithelioid) and stage (I vs >I). Patients will be radiologically evaluated after surgical procedure before starting therapy and then every 12 weeks for 24 months or until disease progression. At screening patients should be without macroscopic residual disease. Quality of life questionnaire will be administered to patient at baseline and every 12 weeks. During the study baseline tumor blocks will be centrally analyzed to determinate biological characteristics and gene expression.
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the specific effect of the sub-components of the reading training program Rhythmic Reading Training (RRT) on reading speed and accuracy in a sample of Italian students with developmental dyslexia (DD). More precisely, in order to better understand the neuropsychological mechanisms involved in reading improvements following RRT, the specific contribution of the visual component of the training (presence of a visual cue) will be investigated in a study with between-groups design.
This registry aims to provide insights on the pathogenic mechanisms that expose subjects with CILCA arch to the increased risk of postoperative complications. So, the CILCA arch registry will capture clinical data and medical images of subjects with CILCA arch treated by surgical or endovascular (TEVAR) means. Study Design: International Multicenter and Observational registry Estimated Enrolment: 500 patients, with competitive enrolment. Clinical Follow up: Postoperatively at 30 days, at 12 months, and yearly after.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of salt (NaCl) supplementation on serum potassium and clinical signs and symptoms in patients with Gitelman syndrome.
Colistin is an antibiotic active against several classes of multi-resistant gram-negative bacteria; the drug should be used in high doses in patients on continuous renal replacement therapy, since the drug is eliminated through the dialysis filter. This is an Open-label, Phase 4, interventional, prospective, single-center pilot study aimed to analyze the concentrations of colistin in plasma and ultrafiltrate by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry, in 20 critically ill patients admitted to intensive care and suffering from severe infections by multi-resistant bacteria, who receive continuous renal replacement therapy.
Predicting response to therapy and disease progression in stage IV NSCLC patients treated with pembrolizumab monotherapy, chemotherapy-pembrolizumab combination therapy or chemotherapy alone in the first-line setting.
The safety run-in part of the study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability of blinatumomab alternating with low-intensity chemotherapy. The phase 3 part of the study aims to compare event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) of participants receiving blinatumomab alternating with low-intensity chemotherapy to EFS and (OS) of participants receiving standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy.
This is a randomized double-blind sham controlled systematic investigation to understand the importance of the brain region that controls the tongue and the submental muscle region on perceived appetite. The results of this study can have clinical implications for a phenomenon called hyperphagia.
