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.
PCOS patients are initially treated with 2 g myo-inositol and 0.2 mg folic acid, two times per day by oral route, for three months. Among them, the subjects who have not ovulated despite this treatment are administered with 2g myo-inositol and 0.2 mg folic acid plus 50 mg α-lactalbumin for three months. Most of them improve and achieve ovulation. Therefore, the combination of α-lactalbumin with myo-inositol allows to get a significant result in the treatment of PCOS patients.
This pilot study aims to test clinical and connectivity changes following non-invasive stimulation of disease-specific networks in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD). Brain network stimulation will be carried out with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Target networks will be the default mode network (DMN) and salience network (SN). Twenty AD and 20 bvFTD patients will be recruited and assessed with a comprehensive clinical, behavioral and cognitive battery, and 3 Tesla MRI scan (including resting-state functional MRI, arterial spin labeling, diffusion tensor imaging, structural MRI) at three time-points: baseline, after tDCS, and after 6 months. Patients will be randomized to 2 arms: anodal stimulation of the disease-specific network (DMN in AD, SN in bvFTD) or cathodal stimulation of the anti-correlated network (SN in AD, DMN in bvFTD). The intervention will consist of 10 tDCS sessions over two weeks. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples will be collected at baseline for biomarker's assessment; blood samples will be collected at each time-point to assess changes in peripheral inflammatory markers. Blood and CSF collection will be optional. A sample of 20 elderly controls will be included for baseline comparisons.
The primary objective is to investigate safety and tolerability of BI 1015550 in patients with IPF. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BI 1015550 in patients with IPF.
To prospectively compare non-complex biliary stone clearance using fluoroscopy/radiation-free direct solitary cholangioscopy (DSC) utilizing the SpyGlass™ system with non-complex biliary stone clearance using standard endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC).
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of micafungin administered to neonates suffering from systemic candidiasis. This study will also evaluate the proportion of success and of failure of the therapy with micafungin among treated neonates and will identify a conversion factor to relate plasma levels of micafungin into capillary and venous blood measured through blood samples from the heel and from a peripheral vein, collected simultaneously. Safety of micafungin in neonates will also be assessed.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the effect of repeat-dose administration of brigatinib 180 milligram (mg) once daily (QD) on the single-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of midazolam.
A Multicenter, observational Data Collection Study to Evaluate the Safety and Performance of the Nexus™ Aortic Arch Stent Graft System in patients that were implanted with the device as part of Compassionate Use Procedures.
This study investigated the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of the anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody BGB-A317 in participants with previously treated hepatocellular unresectable carcinoma.
The objective of this study is to understand the utilization of cabozantinib in subjects with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) following prior VEGF-targeted therapy in real life settings in terms of dose modifications due to adverse events (AEs) when used as a second line therapy or third and later line therapy. Other patterns of use of cabozantinib will also be described.
Sesame is a European, multi-center, single arm, prospective, observational registry. Sesame aims to demonstrate that use of SOFIA™/SOFIA™ PLUS catheter for direct aspiration as a first line treatment technique is fast, safe and effective in patients suffering an Acute Ischemic Stroke when assessed at 24 hours, discharge and 90 days after treatment. 250 patients will be enrolled. All patients will be followed for 90 days or until death.
