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 purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of ABBV-8E12 in participants with early AD.
This is a Phase III study to assess the efficacy and safety of DE-109 440 µg every 2 months in subjects with active, non-infectious uveitis of the posterior segment of the eye (NIU-PS). There is a 6-month, single-arm, open-label period after completion of the 6-month double- masked, controlled period allows the evaluation of the efficacy and safety of intravitreal injection of DE-109 440 µg every 2 months for longer duration than appropriate for a placebo or sham control.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of TRC101 on the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and to evaluate the safety profile of TRC101 in CKD patients with metabolic acidosis.
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of the efficacy and safety of apremilast (CC-10004) in pediatric subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. At least 230 pediatric subjects (ages 6 through 17 years) will be randomized 2:1 to receive either apremilast or placebo for the first 16 weeks and then all subjects will receive apremilast during the 36 week Extension Phase for a total of 52 weeks. Randomization to apremilast arm or placebo arm will be stratified by age group (6 to 11 years or 12 to 17 years). Subjects will receive apremilast treatment of either 20 mg twice daily (BID) or 30 mg BID, depending on weight. This Phase 3 study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of apremilast in the treatment of pediatric subjects.
Selexipag is available in many countries for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Due to the similarities between PAH and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) and the observed efficacy of other PAH medicines in CTEPH, it is believed that selexipag could benefit to patients with CTEPH. This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of selexipag in participants with inoperable or persistent/recurrent CTEPH.
The purpose of this Phase 1/2 study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Loncastuximab Tesirine (ADCT-402) in combination with Ibrutinib in participants with Advanced Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma or Mantle Cell Lymphoma.
This study is designed to better understand the effect of Kinesio Taping applied using the Neurotaping technique on patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty surgery. Patients will be randomized in two groups: in the first group patients will follow a protocol of usual rehabilitation, while the second group will do the same but add the Kinesio Taping application. Main outcome will be the effect on edema, secondary outcome the effect on functionality after 13 days post surgery.
The study aims at optimizing the long-term and extended management of patients with a first episode of venous thromboembolism (proximal deep vein thrombosis with or without pulmonary embolism) (VTE). Patients at high risk of recurrence (with altered D-dimer test), who had received anticoagulation (whatever the drug used) for 12-15 months after the first episode of thrombosis, will be treated with Apixaban 2,5 mg x 2 for 18 months as extended treatment. Patients at low risk, with normal D-dimer test, will stop anticoagulation definitely.
In order to understand how pharmacokinetics and immunological inactivation affect the therapeutic efficacy of Asparaginase (ASP), it is of help and advised in the frame of clinical font-line protocols to monitor the enzymatic activity by measuring the serum ASP levels in the days following the administration of the drug.
Cardiac failure (HF) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are two clinical conditions with a significant impact on public health worldwide. In the elderly population the prevalence of T2DM is constantly increasing as well as its incidence in all Western countries including Italy. The combination of HF and T2DM is frequent and leads to an increased risk of death and of non-fatal adverse cardiovascular (CV) events which justifies the frailty of this population. Although diabetic patients (pts) with HF respond to recommended treatments for HF, the effective and safe control of blood glucose levels is still an outstanding clinical problem, since glucose lowering drugs may increase the risk of CV adverse events. Insulin, used in about 30% of diabetic patients with HF, causes adverse effects such as fluid and sodium retention and unwanted effects of hypoglycemia. Even if insulin remains a milestone in glucose lowering therapy of T2DM, its risk/benefit ratio is still controversial, more so when given to old patients with HF. The issue has gained relevance since new antidiabetic agents, as the sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT- 2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) analogues, with a safer CV profile have been made available. While the transferability of the CV benefits attributed to the new drugs needs to be assessed in clinical practice, the present study explore the benefit/risk profile of insulin in HF. Objectives: to assess comparatively in patients with heart failure and T2DM the benefit/risk profile over 1-year follow-up of two antidiabetic strategies, standard care with vs without insulin in terms of humoral and clinical endpoints including body weight change, all-cause mortality and burden of care components (hospitalizations for CV events and episodes of severe hypoglycemia).
