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 primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy in terms of CNS-specific PFS of the combination of standard systemic treatment plus SRS vs. standard systemic treatment alone in patients with newly diagnosed and untreated (except for surgery) asymptomatic or oligosymptomatic brain metastases from melanoma or NSCLC. This proposed randomised phase III clinical study addresses one of the most controversial issues in the current approach to patients with brain mets: the timing of SRS in patients eligible for systemic immune checkpoint inhibition or targeted therapy in order to guide therapeutic options as to what strategy allows the best compromise between best survival and best QoL.
TIRCON-reg aims to - continue the provision of a global registry and natural history study for NBIA disorders - harmonize and cover existing national and single site registries - enable participation of countries and single sites that so far have no access to an NBIA registry - join forces in order to recruit sufficient numbers of patients - define the natural history of NBIA disorders - define the most appropriate outcome measures - inform the design and facilitate the conduction of clinical trials
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a group of malignancies characterized by reduced differentiation and increased apoptosis of hematopoietic progenitor cells, leading to ineffective hematopoiesis. Treatment of MDS varies according to prognosis. Patients with low IPSS-R risk have a low probability of progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and the treatment is aimed at controlling cytopenia and improving quality of life (QOL). Anemia is the most common disease feature, occurring in 80%-85% of low-risk patients, 40% of whom eventually become RBC transfusion-dependent (TD). Luspatercept is a recombinant fusion protein that selectively binds to ligands belonging to the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily. Luspatercept binds to GDF11, GDF8, activin B, and other ligands. This binding leads to inhibition of Smad2/3 signaling, which is abnormally high in disease models of ineffective erythropoiesis such as MDS, resulting in erythroid maturation and differentiation. Luspatercept is now approved for the treatment of adult patients with TD anemia due to very low-, low-, and intermediate-risk MDS with ring sideroblasts, who had an unsatisfactory response to or are ineligible for erythropoietin-based therapy. FISiM (Fondazione Italiana Sindromi Mielodidplastiche) promotes a multicenter, retrospective observational study to collect information on the efficacy and safety of luspatercept in a real world Italian population of adult patients with transfusion-dependent anemia due to very low- and intermediate-risk MDS with ring sideroblasts
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of mezigdomide (CC-92480), bortezomib and dexamethasone (MeziVd) versus pomalidomide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (PVd) in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who received between 1 to 3 prior lines of therapy and who have had prior lenalidomide exposure.
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of aticaprant administered as adjunctive therapy to a current antidepressant (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor [SSRI] or serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor [SNRI]) in all participants with major depressive disorder (MDD).
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of rimegepant for migraine prophylaxis in adults with a history of inadequate response to oral preventive medications
To evaluate the efficacy of batoclimab 680 milligrams (mg) subcutaneous (SC) once a week (QW) for 12 weeks followed by 340 mg SC QW for 12 weeks versus placebo on proptosis responder rate at Week 24.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the long-term safety of vatiquinone in participants with Friedreich ataxia (FA) previously exposed to vatiquinone.
Longitudinal study on healthy subjects to investigate the longevity of the antibody response to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. Venous blood samples will be collected on an outpatient basis from 400 adults at regular intervals (1, 2, 4, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months) after the second dose of the vaccine. In the event of the administration of a third dose, the participants already recruited will be subjected to a venous blood sample immediately before administration and subsequently at regular intervals (1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 months). A laboratory serological test will be performed for each sample. The expression of humoral biomarkers will be evaluated with the Luminex methodology with the aim of identifying prognostic and predictive biomarkers of the response to the vaccine.
This study compares semaglutide, together with a lower dose of insulin glargine, to a higher dose of insulin glargine in participants with type 2 diabetes. The study looks at how well the study medicines control blood glucose levels. Participants will either get semaglutide together with a lower dose of insulin glargine or a higher dose of insulin glargine. The study will last for about 47 weeks (approximately 11 months). Participants will have 9 clinic visits, 15 phone/video calls and 1 home visit. Participants will be asked to wear a sensor that measures their blood sugar all the time in 2 periods of 10 days during the study.
