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.
Patients with Sepsis / Septic Shock and AKI are submitted to Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy with the oXiris filter . The pro- inflammatory mediators , the endotoxin , interleukin 10 , the main cardiorespiratory indices and renal parameters are evaluated at the entry of the study and at the end of the treatment.
The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the local injection of autologous micro-fragmented adipose tissue obtained with the Lipogems®system in patients with trans-sphincteric fistulas untreatable with fistulotomy.
Transfusions are one of the most overused treatments in modern medicine, and saving blood is one important issue all around the world. Cardiac surgery makes up a large percentage of the overall blood components consumption in surgery. Acute normovolemic hemo-dilution (ANH) is a well-known strategy which has been used for years without the support of high quality evidence based medicine to improve post-cardiopulmonary bypass coagulation and reduce red blood cells (RBC) transfusion. We designed a multicenter randomized controlled trial to investigate the effect of ANH in reducing the number of cardiac surgery patients receiving RBC transfusions during hospital stay. We will randomize 2000 patients to have sufficient power to demonstrate a 20% relative and 7% absolute risk reduction in the number of patients' RBC transfusion. If the results of the study will confirm our hypothesis, this will have a great impact on blood management in cardiac operating room.
This is a multicenter, single arm, phase II study evaluating efficacy in terms of RR in a cohort of NSCLC with MET amplification or MET exon 14 skipping mutation pre-treated or not with MET inhibitors.
This study evaluates if dynamic arterial elastance measured before general anesthesia induction can predict the occurrence of hypotension due to general anesthesia induction.
KALIOS is indicated for the surgical treatment of mitral regurgitation by mitral valve repair.It is intended for mitral valve repair using conventional open heart or minimally invasive techniques. The KALIOS device is an adjustable annuloplasty ring, to be implanted by open surgery, having a hollow structure that comprises a flat rigid ring surrounding a deformable cage. The unique feature of KALIOS is that its annular shape and dimension can be finely adjusted percutaneously by an external actuator (three-balloon catheter) independently in the three areas corresponding to P1, P2 and P3 The primary objective of this clinical investigation is to assess the safety and effectiveness of KALIOS for the surgical treatment of Mitral Regurgitation with optional intra-operative and/or post-operative adjustment(s) The secondary objectives are to investigate the effects of KALIOS for the surgical treatment of Mitral Regurgitation on cardiac function and on patient functional status This clinical trial is prospective, non-randomized, single arm, multicentric & international. Up to 100 patients are expected to be enrolled to obtain 62 evaluable patients at one year,presenting with primary (degenerative) or secondary (functional) mitral valve regurgitation and who are candidate to a mitral valve repair.
The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate the long-term safety of glepaglutide treatment in patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS). Glepaglutide is the International Nonproprietary Name and USAN for ZP1848.
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) has revolutioned the management of gastroenterological patients and is acquiring an increasingly important role. The development of specifically designed stents has significantly increased the technical and clinical success rate of the EUS-guided procedures, considerably reducing the rate of adverse events. Currently EUS has a prominent role in drainage of peripancreatic fluid collections and it represents an important therapeutic option for patients with distal malignant biliary obstruction, in which the ERCP fails, allowing the positioning of a transgastric or transbulbar lumen apposing metal stent (LAMS) to drain the biliary duct. Moreover, the EUS-guided gallbladder drainage of patients with high surgical risk and acute cholecystitis, which cannot be operated, is another important therapeutic indication. Our aim is to perform a multicentre retrospective analysis of all types of EUS drainage (gallbladder drainage, biliary drainage, peripancreatic fluid collection drainage) with the positioning of LAMS in order to evaluate the rate of technical and clinical success and to assess the safety profile of these procedures.
Postoperative infections are a common complication. A relationship between perioperative severe hyperglycemia and postoperative infections has been found in patients undergoing craniotomy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the epidemiology of intraoperative severe hyperglycemia (BGC >180 mg/dL; 10 mmol/L) and postoperative infections (wound, urinary and prosthetic joint infection) and to investigate if severe intraoperative hyperglycemia is associated with an higher risk of early postoperative (within the 7th postoperative days) infections (wound, urinary and prosthetic joint infection).
This is an open-label, multi-center Phase 1/2 study of oral LOXO-292 in pediatric participants with an activating rearranged during transfection (RET) alteration and an advanced solid or primary CNS tumor.
