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 evaluates KRT-232, a novel oral small molecule inhibitor of MDM2, combined with acalabrutinib for the treatment of adults with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. Participants must be relapsed/refractory (having failed prior therapy)
Study Evaluating Efficacy and Safety of Panzyga in Primary Infection Prophylaxis in Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Comparison of casting and bracing for the treatment of idiopathic early onset scoliosis
This is a randomized open-label multicentre Phase III superiority study of the effect of adding SBRT to the standard of care treatment on overall survival in patients with rare oligometastatic cancers. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio between current standard of care treatment vs. standard of care treatment + SBRT to all sites of known metastatic disease. The primary objective of this trial is to assess if the addition of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) to standard of care treatment improves overall survival (OS) as compared to standard of care treatment alone in patients with rare oligometastatic cancers.
Primary outcome: difference of microperimetry retinal sensitivity after primary vitrectomy for idiopathic full thickness macular holes with inverted flap technique versus internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling technique Secondary outcomes: difference of visual change after primary vitrectomy for idiopathic full thickness macular holes with inverted flap technique versus internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling technique; difference in closure rate after primary vitrectomy for idiopathic full thickness macular holes with inverted flap technique versus internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling technique
Sex and gender matter to health equity, especially in a pandemic. Sex (a biological attribute) and gender (a social construct) may influence an individual's susceptibility, vulnerability and exposure to infectious disease. In previous coronavirus epidemics (SARS and MERS), male sex was associated with worse outcomes. Both immune and the hemostatic response display ample sexual dimorphism. The primary aim of the study is to determine whether sex differences in biomarkers of platelet and immune function, gut microbiome, clinical characteristics, therapy, clinical cost sensitive outcomes (i.e. in-hospital transition of care, case severity, and mortality due to COVID-19) exist in patients affected by COVID-19.
Medtronic is sponsoring the Intrinsic Antitachycardia Pacing Post-Approval Study (iATP PAS) to further confirm safety and effectiveness of ventricular iATP therapy in routine clinical practice, following commercial release of iATP-capable devices. The iATP PAS is conducted within Medtronic's Product Surveillance Registry platform (NCT01524276).
Epilepsy is a chronic condition that requires consistent follow-up aimed at seizure control, surveillance of comorbidities, monitoring of antiepileptic drugs (AED) levels and side effects. Patients may encounter difficulties to be assessed adequately and the disease burden is increased by the need for travelling across the country for medical consultations. Driving restrictions are a further limit to access specialized Centers able to provide an integrated approach focused on patient needs. Telemedicine (TM) offers an invaluable support to patient follow-up, joining the sparse distribution of patients in the country with the prompt availability of a team of experts. The project assesses, through a randomized controlled trial, the non-inferiority of TM in monitoring seizure control compared to usual (face-to-face) care. This approach, coupled with a new self home-sampling method for the measurement of AED levels, will reduce health care costs and simplify patients management.
Severe Acquired Brain Injury is defined as a traumatic, post-anoxic, vascular or other brain damage that causes coma for at least 24 hours and leads to permanent disability with sensorial, motor, cognitive or compartmental impairment. In this context, an accurate characterization of individual patients' profile in terms of neuronal damage, potential for neuroplasticity, neurofunctional and clinical state could allow to plan tailored rehabilitation and care pathway on the basis of solid prognostic information, also for optimizing resources of the National Health care systems and enhance ethical decisions. Patient profiling should encompass measures and procedures easily available at the bedside, and with affordable time, resource, and money-costs to determine a real impact on National Health systems. The aim of the study is identifying patient profiles in terms of clinical, neurophysiological and genetical aspects with better long-term outcome in order to plan tailored therapeutic interventions.
This is a pilot non pharmacological observational study. Aim of the study is to analyze the immunophenotype of circulating eosinophils in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, and to correlate results with clinical status of patients (stable versus exacerbated patients, response to therapy). In about 30% of COPD patients there is an increase in the number of circulating eosinophils, which associates with an increased risk for exacerbation. However, no data is available on the role of eosinophils in this disease, on their activation status and their response to chemotactic factors. By multicolor flow cytometry the investigators will analyze membrane molecules and intracellular cytokines associated to chemotaxis, degranulation and inflammation. The study will enroll 30 patients (15 stable and 15 with exacerbation). Results will be analyzed taking into account clinical status,disease progression and response to treatment.
