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.
Conflicting evidence exist in the literature on the utility of bronchoscopy in patients with haemoptysis and negative/non-diagnostic chest CT scan. The primary aim of this prospective, observational, multicenter study is to evaluate the utility of bronchoscopy in patients with haemoptysis and negative/non-diagnostic CT scans. Secondary aims are related to the utility of bronchoscopy to detect occult malignancies, the source of the bleeding and the clinical features of the cohort
The clinical study evaluates the use of a custom-made medical-grade polycaprolactone-PCL Pectus scaffold implantation with Autologous Fat Grafting for pectus excavatum camouflage (IT). The study aims to demonstrate the safety and clinical performance of the insertion of an absorbable "medical-grade polycaprolactone-PCL Pectus Scaffold" in the thorax region with Autologous Fat Grafting in the correction of congenital Pectus Excavatum unsuitable for conventional treatment with stable cardio-respiratory function. The PCL Pectus Scaffold-based design has the potential to induce sustained regeneration to fill large volume pectus excavatum defects, with the added benefit of being light weight and resorbable, thus not affecting the patients function capacity and reducing the risk of implant-related complications.
The progressive ageing of the population of industrialized countries is accompanied by a dramatic increase in the prevalence of chronic multi-pathologies. In the general population, HF is associated with a higher prevalence of T2DM compared with patients without HF and with marked regional differences observed in Europe and the rest of the world. In clinical trials of chronic HF patients, the prevalence of T2DM is approximately 30% in patients with reduced or preserved ejection fraction and rises to as much as 45% in hospitalized patient registries. A complex drug regimen is often associated with low adherence in patients with HF and T2DM and poor adherence is associated with adverse clinical events. Similarly, adherence to recommendations regarding lifestyle changes, such as increasing physical activity, is often limited despite these changes' favourable effects on the patient. Therefore, interventions are needed to improve all these factors and optimize adherence. The inclusion of telemedicine (telenursing, telerehabilitation, mHealth) focused on health and correct behaviour can create opportunities to implement customized and scalable solutions in populations at risk. The project will aim to evaluate for patients with chronic diseases with a complex phenotype (heart failure and type II diabetes mellitus) the effectiveness of a remote surveillance program with particular attention to lifestyle changes.
The aim of this study is to evaluate safety and effectiveness of a hybrid mesh (GORE® SYNECOR Intraperitoneal Biomaterial) in patients with a BMI of 30 kg/m2 or more undergoing laparoscopic ventral hernia repair (LVHR) with intraperitoneal position of the mesh.
The primary outcome of the study was the vertical variation of peri-implant buccal and palatal bone level from implant placement (T0) to uncovering stage (3 months later - T1)
The aim of the study is to compare the incidence of dental caries and the level of demineralization in pediatric patients with asthma and/or allergic rhinitis. Patients will conduct professional oral hygiene at the baseline. The following clinical indexes will be assessed: BEWE Index, Plaque Index, Bleeding Score, Schiff Air Index. Then, patients will be randomly divided into two groups: - Trial group: domiciliary use of Biorepair Total Protection Plus + desensitizing enamel-repair shock treatment twice a day - Control group: domiciliary use of Elmex Caries Protection twice a day The clinical indexes will be assessed again after 1 month (T1), after 3 (T2) and 6 months (T3).
This is a Phase I/II, open-label, non-randomized, multicenter study to explore safety, tolerability and antitumor activity of NMS-01940153E as single agent in adult patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) previously treated with systemic therapy. The Phase I portion is designed as a dose-escalation study in sequential cohorts of patients aimed to obtain the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) that is defined based on the dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) observed in the first cycle of treatment. The Phase II portion is designed as a two-stage study with an interim analysis for futility and stopping criteria for unacceptable toxicity to assess the antitumor activity of NMS-01940153E in adult patients with unresectable HCC previously treated with systemic therapy measured as objective response rate.
This study is intended to confirm the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and the durability of hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) suppression observed with bepirovirsen for 24 weeks (with loading doses) as compared to the placebo arm. This study will have 4 stages: a) Double-blind treatment (bepirovirsen or placebo) for 24 weeks. b) Nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) treatment for 24 weeks. c) NA cessation stage OR Continue NA for 24 weeks. d) Durability of response and follow up for further 24 weeks for participants who stopped NA treatment at Week 48. The arms will be stratified based on HBsAg level (HBsAg greater than or equal to [≥] 100 international unit per milliliter [IU/mL] to less than or equal [≤]1000 IU/mL or greater than [>] 1000 IU/mL to ≤3000 IU/mL) at screening. The total duration of the study, including screening (up to 60 days), the double-blind treatment stage (24 weeks), the On NA only stage (24 weeks), and the NA cessation and durability stages (48 weeks) is up to approximately 104 weeks at maximum for each participant.

The aim of our study was to evaluate whether there is a higher prevalence of anxiety-depressive disorders in women with interstitial cystitis than in women with chronic non-neoplastic pain with or without fibromyalgia, to examine possible correlations between urological and psychiatric symptoms, analyze how urological symptoms affect psychological dimension, and how specific stress or trauma can contribute to the onset of interstitial cystitis.
