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 study aims at evaluating the feasibility and safety of EUS-guided Portal Circulation sampling for isolation, enumeration and profiling od Circulating Tumor Cells (CTC) in Pancreatic Cancer patients. Patients undergoing Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) for cyto/histological characterization of the neoplasia will receive an additional Fine Needle Aspiration sampling of a branch of the Portal Circulation to obtain a blood sample which will be processed for CTC enrichment, count and characterization.
The two scientific societies FADOI and SIIA have decided to start a collaborative study protocol that, through the application of a simple and homogeneous method to diagnose orthostatic hypotension, aims to estimate prevalence, conditions associates and outcomes in a cohort of patients admitted to Internal Medicine Departments and with known or newly diagnosed arterial hypertension.
RESEARCH QUESTION Are handsewn (end to end and Kono S side to side) anastomoses superior to side to side stapled anastomosis after ileocolic resection for Crohn's disease with respect to endoscopic recurrence, gastrointestinal function and costs. HYPOTHESIS Stapled side anastomosis advised in ECCO guidelines heal with ulcerations on the staple line causing systematic over scoring of endoscopic recurrence leading to unjustified restarting of expensive drugs reducing QOL and increasing costs. Side to side saccular configuration causes stasis affecting recurrence and dysfunction. DESIGN Randomised superiority study POPULATION Patients with Crohn requiring (re)resection of the (neo)terminal ileum INTERVENTION Kono S and end to end hand sewn anastomosis USUAL CARE Side to side stapled anastomosis OUTCOME Endoscopic recurrence (local and central reading) at 6 months SAMPLE 25% reduction in 2:1 ratio -> 126 + 63 = 189 patients KEYWORDS Crohn, ileocolic resection, recurrence
This is a phase III clinical study to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of PHH-1V as a booster dose in healthy adult subjects vaccinated against COVID-19 with the Comirnaty, Spikevax, Vaxevria or Janssen vaccine.
This is a prospective non interventional study including patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS) or with Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders (NMOSD) and healthy subjects, who are enrolled within the routinely programmed clinical examinations at the IRCCS Neuromed (Pozzilli, Italy), IRCCS Polyclinic Hospital San Martino (Genoa, Italy) and Sant'Andrea Hospital - University of Rome La Sapienza (Rome, Italy). Specifically, the study investigates how ozanimod may contrast neurodegenerative mechanisms triggered by both arms of the adaptive immune response (T and B cells) and by their suboptimal regulation in MS. Overall, the project aims at assessing by in vitro experiments (there will be no patients on treatment with ozanimod and the drug will be only used in vitro): AIM1: ozanimod ability to modulate the synaptotoxic effect of T-cells derived from patients with MS relapse in a MS-chimeric ex-vivo model and to identify possible mediators (IRCCS Neuromed-Pozzilli, in collaboration with Synaptic Immunopathology Laboratory Dep. Systems Medicine, Tor Vergata University of Rome); AIM2: ozanimod ability to reduce the cytokine-mediated breakdown of the BBB and the migration of the here studied immune cells through ex vivo models of BBB (IRCCS Polyclinic Hospital San Martino); AIM3: ozanimod ability to affect the migration properties of Epstein Barr virus (EBV) infected B cells in MS (Sant'Andrea Hospital); AIM4: ozanimod ability to modulate the number and/or function of regulatory T cells (Treg), a lymphocyte population playing a key role in the control of pathogenic adaptive immune responses (Treg Cell Laboratory, Università degli Studi di Napoli "Federico II", Naples, Italy, receiving blood samples from Neuromed Hospital and Sant'Andrea Hospital; not recruiting unit). The work of the four labs is conceptually and operationally integrated: the labs at IRCCS Neuromed-Pozzilli/Tor Vergata University (Aim1) and at Polyclinic Hospital San Martino (Aim2) will investigate the effects of ozanimod on well-known mechanisms of damage in MS, inflammatory synaptopathy and BBB damage and immune cell migration. The lab at Sant'Andrea Hospital (Aim3), will verify whether B cells infected by different EBV genotypes are involved in BBB migration, and how ozanimod may interfere with this mechanism. The Treg Cell Laboratory (Aim4) will investigate whether ozanimod can also act "upstream" of these mechanisms by regulating the adaptive immune response.
This is an open label single group, Phase 2, 1-arm study for treatment to evaluate efficacy, safety, and Pharmacokinetic (PK) of tusamitamab ravtansine in nonsquamous non-small-cell-lung-cancer (NSQ NSCLC) participants with negative or moderate CEACAM5 expression tumors and high circulating carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). Participants who will be enrolled, will receive tusamitamab ravtansine as monotherapy every two weeks (Q2W) until disease progression, unacceptable adverse event (AE), initiation of a new anticancer therapy, or the participant's or investigator's decision to stop the treatment, whichever comes first. A total of approximately 38 participants are planned to be treated.
The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the tolerance and efficacy of two Stérimar nasal sprays products in children who have nasal congestion due to the common cold.
This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, Phase 3 study in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma to evaluate the benefits of teclistamab in combination with lenalidomide and teclistamab alone versus lenalidomide alone as maintenance therapy after autologous stem cell transplant.
The purpose of this open-label 12-month extension study is to continue to characterize the long-term safety, efficacy and immunogenic profile of GSK3511294 (Depemokimab) in participants with severe asthma with an eosinophilic phenotype following completion of clinical studies 206713 or 213744.
This study intends to determine the number and percent of subjects initially diagnosed with divergence excess exotropia which would be reclassified as simulated divergence excess exotropia if tested after 24 hours of monocular occlusion (patching) or after prism adaptation for the distance angle.
