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.
Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is the most common neuromonitoring modality used in neurocritical care units (NCCU) around the world. Uncertainties remain around intracranial pressure monitoring both in traumatic and non-traumatic brain injury, and variation in clinical practice of intracranial pressure monitoring exists between neurocritical care units. The objectives of the study will explore intracranial pressure monitoring variation in practice to prioritise uncertainties in the clinical management of critical care patients with acute brain injury and support further collaborative hypotheses-based prospective studies.
This study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of pomalidomide in children and young adults aged 1 to < 21 years with recurrent or progressive primary brain tumors in one of four primary brain tumor types: high-grade glioma (HGG), medulloblastoma, ependymoma and diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG).
The primary objective is to compare overall survival (OS) for patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who have histology of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and who have any eligible histology treated with either cemiplimab or investigator's choice (IC) chemotherapy. The secondary objectives performed among SCC patients and among all eligible histologies (SCC and adenocarcinoma/adenosquamous carcinoma (AC) are: - To compare progression-free survival (PFS) of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy - To compare objective response rate (ORR) (partial response [PR] + complete response [CR]) of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 - To compare the duration of response (DOR) of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy - To compare the safety profiles of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy by describing adverse events (AE) - To compare quality of life (QOL) for patients treated with cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)
To evaluate the performance of Xonrid® in the prevention and treatment of G2 radiation dermatitis in breast and head & neck cancer patients.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of cervical cerclage in prevention of spontaneous preterm birth in singleton pregnancies with a short transvaginal cervical length (<=25mm) and without prior spontaneous preterm birth
The primary purpose of Part 1 in this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of JNJ-64179375 for each dose level for dose escalation and any bleeding events (the composite of major, clinically relevant non-major, and minimal bleeding events) for the selection of doses for Part 2. The primary purpose of Part 2 is to assess the efficacy dose response of JNJ-64179375 for the prevention of total venous thromboembolism (VTE) (proximal and/or distal deep vein thrombosis [DVT] [asymptomatic confirmed by venography assessment of the operated leg or objectively confirmed symptomatic], nonfatal pulmonary embolism [PE], or any death).
To evaluate the illumigene CMV assay, using the illumipro-10 with neonates (up to 21 days of age) saliva swabs
This is phase IIa 24-week, prospective, randomized, double-blind placebo controlled study. The study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of transdermal patch of Rotigotine (RTG) versus placebo (PLC) as add-on therapy with AChEI in patients with mild AD according to the consensus diagnostic criteria and MMSE score of ≥18 and ≤24 at screening. Two groups of patients with mild AD will be involved (50 patients each). One group will be assigned to treatment with RTG 4 mg and the other one to PLC as add on to AChEI therapy (Rivastigmine). Clinical and neurophysiological measurements will be collected before and after drug administration.
The goal of asthma treatment is to achieve and maintain asthma control and to reduce the future risk of exacerbations. Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are considered as the most effective anti- inflammatory treatment for all severities of persistent asthma. For children >=5 years of age and adolescents whose asthma is uncontrolled, low-dose ICS plus adjunctive therapy with long-acting beta agonist (LABA) is considered as effective. Thus, this study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FF (ICS component)/VI (LABA component) compared to FF alone for the treatment of asthma, in subjects aged 5 to 17 years old currently uncontrolled on ICS. The study will be conducted over a total duration of approximately 29 weeks: 4 week run-in period, 24-week double-blind treatment period and 1-week follow-up period. Subjects will be randomized to receive FDC of FF/VI or FF administered via ELLIPTA® dry powder inhaler (DPI). The dose of both FF/VI and FF alone will be selected based on the age of subjects. Subjects will receive a short acting beta 2 agonist (SABA) (albuterol /salbutamol) as a rescue medication throughout the study. A total of 870 subjects will be randomized in the study. Of this, 652 subjects will be aged 5 to 11 years (cohort A), and 218 will be aged 12 to 17 years inclusive (cohort B). ELLIPTA is a registered trademark of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) group of companies.
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate whether the effect of bio-feedback dysphagia treatment is more effective than a control treatment in post-stroke patients. This study will be a randomized, single-blind controlled pilot study. The investigators intend to recruit 40 patients who have suffered a stroke and have dysphagia. Twenty patients will undergo training with bio-feedback (experimental group) and the other 20 patients will undergo standard training, using only verbal feedback rather than visual feedback (control group). The authors hypothesize that in the control group the efficacy of the treatment will be lower in the absence of immediate visual feedback of strength and coordination of the swallowing act.
