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 purpose of this study is to describe contemporary, real-world patterns of patient characteristics, clinical disease presentation, therapeutic regimen chosen, and clinical outcomes in participants with newly diagnosed [ND] multiple myeloma (MM) and participants with relapsed/refractory [R/R] MM.
Incidence and risk factors for renal, cardiovascular and pulmonary complications after liver transplantation are not well defined. Blood products requirement is an important aspect of orthotropic liver transplantation (OLTx) management and has a great impact on patient's outcome. Transfusions of blood products increase perioperative complications and reduce graft and patients survival. The primary endpoint of the study is to evaluate the incidence of renal complication during ICU stay after liver transplantation using RIFLE criteria; secondary endpoint is to evaluate the incidence of cardiovascular and pulmonary complications. In addition patients' survival and the relationship between blood components use with the development of post-operative complications are evaluated.
Groups 1 to 4 To estimate the clinical benefit of cemiplimab monotherapy for patients with: metastatic (nodal or distant) cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC), or unresectable locally advanced CSCC Group 6 To provide additional efficacy and safety data for cemiplimab monotherapy in patients with advanced CSCC (metastatic [nodal or distant] or locally advanced treated with cemiplimab
The NOVEL Observational longiTudinal studY (NOVELTY) is an observational study of obstructive lung disease and is a multi-country, multi-centre, prospective, longitudinal cohort study which will recruit patients with a diagnosis, or suspected diagnosis, of asthma and/or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Patients will undergo clinical assessments and receive standard medical care as determined by their treating physician. Patients enrolled in NOVELTY will be followed up yearly by their treating physician for a total duration of three years. In addition, patients will be followed up remotely every 3 months. The NOVELTY study will collect data currently lacking to allow for multinational data collection to fill regional/local gaps and improve comparability across regions.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the ventilator settings advice given by the BEACON care system in fitting with best level of support in patient under mechanical ventilation in Pressure Support mode.
The Diverticular Inflammation and Complication Assessment (DICA) is an endoscopic classification for diverticulosis and diverticular disease of the colon. The aim of the study is to show that DICA classification is a valid parameter to predict the risk of acute diverticulitis occurrence/recurrence and the need of surgery in patients suffering from diverticulosis/diverticular disease of the colon.
The purpose of this study is to determine the accuracy of the Novel point of care test (POCT) total IgE assay in atopic patients. 120 patients with atopic conditions and approximately 40 healthy subjects will be enrolled. Fingerstick capillary blood samples will be collected and tested in the POCT device. Venous samples will be collected and sent to a reference laboratory for measurement of serum total IgE using the reference immunoassay method.
The objective of this study was to compare the 5-year survival and clinical behavior of single posterior ceramic crowns made with pressable ceramic on zirconia or on a metal framework. If failures occurred, the further aim of the study was to delineate the factors contributing to the failure. The null hypothesis stated that the survival of zirconia-based restorations would be no worse that those made with metal-based material.
This non-randomized, interventional study will be conducted in a general practice setting to assess the utility of a benign prostatic enlargement (BPE)/benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) screening tool in conjunction with prostate specific antigen (PSA) in finding men confirmed to have BPH on full urologist assessment of diagnostic test results. The tool may help a General Practitioners (GP) to identify subjects who may have BPH for further tests and improve the speed of referrals to specialists when this is appropriate. The utility of the screening tool will be compared to the validated tool in wide clinical use, the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS). This study does not have any formal hypothesis in terms of the primary and secondary endpoint proportions. A BPE/BPO screening tool identifies lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) probably due to BPH in men not yet presenting with LUTS. The results of this screening tool will be used for further investigation. All subjects testing positive on the BPE/BPO screening tool (score >=3) tool or on the IPSS (score >=8) will be enrolled and offered a PSA test and urinalysis to establish a diagnosis of probable BPH (Part I-Visit 1). The GP may perform a digital rectal examination (DRE) which will be repeated by the urologist to confirm the diagnosis and to rule out an abnormality suggesting prostate cancer. The GP will make a diagnosis of probable BPH based upon screening results and lab tests which suggest that they are related to BPH and not other causes of such symptoms. The GP will phone the subject to report yes or no for probable BPH Part II (Visit 2). If the subject has probable BPH, the GP will schedule the subject for Visit 3 with an urologist. If the subject does not have probable BPH, then it will be considered that the subject has completed the study. Subjects that proceed to Part II (Visit 3) will be scheduled for a urology assessment performed by an urologist. This assessment includes a DRE and a brief physical exam and review of the PSA test, for a confirmatory diagnosis of BPH and estimation of risk of progression of BPH. Approximately 1,500 subjects presenting to a GP for reasons unrelated to this study will be screened for probable BPH to yield 500 subjects being referred to an urologist. The duration of the study will be 1 week (+/- 4 days) and up to 6 weeks to allow for GP and urologist visit scheduling.
The purpose of the study was to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of mirabegron versus placebo in men with overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms while taking tamsulosin hydrochloride for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).
