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.
Obesity and overweight are noncommunicable diseases with increasing incidence in children, adolescents and adults. In 2016, more than 1.9 billion adults aged 18 and over were overweight and over 650 million were obese (WHO). In the EU-27 (Eurostat data), 45.7% of women and 60.2% of men were overweight, while 16.3% and 16.8%, respectively, were obese. The growing incidence of overweight and obesity generate worldwide increasing incidence of related conditions as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, metabolic disorders, and cancer, with relevant socio-economical (increase in health costs, increase in disabilities) and environmental consequences (unsustainability of food models, increase in ecological footprint, worsening of climate changes). A transformation of food systems and individual behaviours are necessary to improve the quality of life and the sustainability of lifestyle, which should be oriented at preventing o treating overweight and obesity.
The primary objective is to evaluate in participants with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), whether the reduction from baseline in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) at Cycle 3 (ΔctDNA) is larger in participants receiving MK-4830 + pembrolizumab in combination with standard of care (SOC) therapy than in those receiving pembrolizumab + SOC therapy.
Super obesity (SO) is defined as a Body Mass Index (BMI) > 50 kg/m2, and represents the extreme severity of the disease, resulting in an increase in morbidity, mortality, and in poorer quality of life compared with morbid obesity (BMI > 35 and <50 kg/m2).
This study aims to assess the antitumor activity and safety of JDQ443 single-agent as first-line treatment for participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors harbor a KRAS G12C mutation and a PD-L1 expression < 1% regardless of STK11 mutation status (cohort A), or a PD-L1 expression ≥ 1% and an STK11 co-mutation (cohort B).
GLORIOSA is a Phase 3 multicenter, open label study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mirvetuximab Soravtansine as maintenance therapy in participants with platinum-sensitive ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancers with high folate receptor-alpha (FRα) expression.
Myelofibrosis (MF) is a rare blood cancer, characterized by extensive fibrosis (scarring) of the bone marrow. It is one of a group of cancers known as myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) in which bone marrow cells that produce blood cells develop and function abnormally. This study will evaluate treatment patterns, treatment outcomes, healthcare resource utilization in adult participants with Myelofibrosis. Data from approximately 1000 participants will be collected. No participants will be enrolled in this study. Participants' charts will be reviewed. No drug will be administered as a part of this study. The duration of the observation period is up to 156 weeks. There is no additional burden for participants in this trial. All visits must be completed prior to data extraction and participants will be followed for up to 156 weeks.
The study aims, by generating a large registry of patients with ATTR amyloidosis, including data at diagnosis and during follow up, to describe the natural history of ATTR amyloidosis in a real-world setting and to define and validate prognostic models, response criteria applicable at any point of the disease. The registry will also be used for data sharing and to allow the possibility of a close collaboration amongst the amyloidosis experts of the ARTC and all the physicians around the Country involved in the diagnosis and management of systemic amyloidosis. Thanks to the online registry, the diagnostic facility of the ARTC will be made available to requesting physicians.
The purpose of the study is to assess whether the REGENETEN™ Bioinductive Implant allows patients to get back to their everyday activities quicker than if the tendon is repaired by the standard repair technique 'Completion and Repair' for surgically treating partial-thickness rotator cuff tears.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of VX-121/tezacaftor/deutivacaftor (VX-121/TEZ/D-IVA) in participants with cystic fibrosis.
Circulating SCFAs reflect the net effect of what is produced in the large intestine from dietary fibre fermentation, bioavailability after considerable absorption by the enterocytes and in the liver and the elimination. It is yet unclear to what extent SCFA levels in systemic circulation is of importance for metabolic disease risk and diabetes aetiology. Recent high-impact studies strongly suggest beneficial metabolic effects of butyrate and adverse effects from propionate However, no study has yet investigated to what extent butyrate or propionate producing diets may influence metabolic risk factors for T2D across individuals with different butyrate or propionate producing capacity. The overall aim is to investigate individual's ability to generate high concentrations of butyrate and propionate in plasma after acute intake of different fibre rich foods in an extended postprandial setting. The aim is further to optimize time points for data collection to allow robust assessment of plasma-time concentration profiles of butyrate and propionate to establish a screening approach to identify individuals with high/low butyrate/propionate plasma concentrations. This will be used in later precision nutrition studies where diet will be tailored to high/low SCFA-metabotypes.
