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.
This study is being carried out in order to evaluate a new cancer vaccine called IMA970A combined with CV8102, a new adjuvant for the treatment of liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma). It will be investigated whether IMA970A and CV8102 is safe and can trigger an immune response against the tumor, which may prevent the tumor (cancer) from recurring or spreading or may even lead to tumor shrinkage following the standard treatments the patients have previously received.
On line haemodiafiltration (OL-HDF) has been shown to improve intra-dialytic hemodynamics and cardiovascular outcomes. Several potential candidates of these beneficial effects have been explored. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of mixed OL-HDF (mOL-HDF) on different circulating mediators of vascular dysfunction.
The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of prulifloxacin in comparison to levofloxacin in the treatment of patients affected by CBP.
This study will evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and durability of treatment effect of ALKS 3831 in subjects with schizophrenia, schizophreniform disorder, or bipolar I disorder
Mortality of intubated acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients remains considerably high (around 40%) (Bellani 2016). Early implementation of a specific mechanical ventilation mode that enhances lung protection in patients with mild to moderate AHRF and ARDS on spontaneous breathing may have a tremendous impact on clinical practice. Previous studies showed that the addition of cyclic short recruitment maneuvers (Sigh) to assisted mechanical ventilation: improves oxygenation without increasing ventilation pressures and FiO2; decreases the tidal volumes by decreasing the patient's inspiratory drive; increases the EELV by regional alveolar recruitment; decreases regional heterogeneity of lung parenchyma; decreases patients' inspiratory efforts limiting transpulmonary pressure; improves regional compliances. Thus, physiologic studies generated the hypothesis that addition of Sigh to pressure support ventilation (PSV, the most common assisted mechanical ventilation mode) might decrease ventilation pressures and FiO2, and limit regional lung strain and stress through various synergic mechanisms potentially yielding decreased risk of VILI, faster weaning and improved clinical outcomes. The investigators conceived a pilot RCT to verify clinical feasibility of the addition of Sigh to PSV in comparison to standard PSV. The investigators will enrol 258 intubated spontaneously breathing patients with mild to moderate AHRF and ARDS admitted to the ICU. Patients will be randomized through an online automatic centralized and computerized system to the following study groups (1:1 ratio): - PSV group: will be treated by protective PSV settings until day 28 or death or performance of spontaneous breathing trial (SBT); - PSV+Sigh group: will be treated by protective PSV settings with the addition of Sigh until day 28 or death or performance of spontaneous breathing trial (SBT). Indications on ventilation settings, weaning, spontaneous breathing trial and rescue treatment will be specified.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of AR101 through oral immunotherapy (OIT) in peanut-allergic children.
This is a study to evaluate the Clinical Performance and Safety of a single intra-articular (i.a.) injection of hyaluronic acid product (as HL-01) in the treatment of pain due to osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee.
The study addresses the safety, utilisation and effectiveness of Obizur in the treatment of bleeding episodes in real-life clinical practice in Europe and the United States.
The primary objective of this study is to determine if there will be a greater mean reduction from baseline in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) achieved after 26 weeks of oral double-blind add-on therapy of dapagliflozin or saxagliptin compared to placebo in paediatric T2DM patients with HbA1c levels of 6.5 to 10.5% on diet and exercise and metformin, insulin, or metformin plus insulin.
Prospective, open-label, single arm, non-randomized, proof-of-concept study. Eligible patients will sign a written informed consent and will be followed-up at screening, baseline (ART interruption) and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 weeks thereafter or at ART resumption. The study visits will include: general clinical assessment, routine laboratory tests including: creatinine, phosphorus, calcium, alkaline phosphatase, AST, ALT, fasting glucose, total cholesterol, HDL- and LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, CD4+ cell count and CD4+/CD8+ ratio. Additional 30 mL of peripheral blood will be withdrawn at study visits for further virological, and immunological investigations and for bio-banking purposes. During follow-up, the occurrence of two consecutive HIV-1 RNA values >50 copies/mL or the occurrence of stage B or C AIDS-defining events or any serious non-AIDS clinical event at least potentially related to treatment interruption will be criteria for ART resumption. All patients with HIV-RNA<50 copies/mL at week 48 (end of the study) will resume their baseline ART regimen. The main demographic, clinical and therapy information will be accurately recorded at the study visits in an electronic Case Report Form.
