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 is a prospective, international, multi-center, open label, stratified, exploratory phase II study evaluating the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib in patients with advanced/metastatic, neuroendocrine tumors of the pancreas after progression to a previous targeted agent (cohort A) or gastrointestinal tract after progression to somatostatin analogues (cohort B).
This Phase 2 open-label, multicenter study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of BMN 190 intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration every other week (qow) for a period of 144 weeks, in patients with CLN2. The study is designed to assess disease progression in CLN2 patients treated with BMN 190 compared to natural history data from untreated historical controls.
This study will evaluate patients who have melanoma that has spread from the eye to the liver: Patients in the study will be treated with Melphalan/HDS up to 6 total treatment, and will be followed until death. This study will evaluate the safety and effects of the treatment on how long patients live and how long it takes for the cancer to advance or respond to the treatment.
This study consists of two parts (Part 1 and Part 2). The purpose of Part 1 is to evaluate the way the body absorbs, distributes, metabolizes and removes the drug LCZ696. This will help determine the proper dose of LCZ696 for Part 2 of the study. The purpose for Part 2 is to compare the effectiveness and safety of LCZ696 with enalapril in a double-blind manner, in pediatric heart failure patients over 52 weeks of treatment.
To date, there are no studies that demonstrate that the intervention of Occupational Therapy (OT) in patients considered to be complex, regardless of diagnosis, could improve clinical and functional outcome for the patient. For this reason, the investigators propose one randomized controlled trial that will compare the group receiving the intervention of OT and the control group, to quantify the level of performance and satisfaction in the activities of interest of the patient, identified through the COPM. The hypothesis is that the benefit may be higher, as clinically relevant, in the group of complex patients treated with the proposed intervention of OT compared to those receiving the usual rehabilitation therapy.
Purpose to compare paravertebral thoracic block (PVB) and pectorals nerves block as analgesic option for major breast surgery. 102 patients undergoing reconstruction breast surgery will be randomized into two groups: Group PVB (n=51) will receive US guided paravertebral thoracic block (between T2-T6) performed with 30ml of 0.25% levobupivacaine before general anesthesia (TCI-TIVA) induction. Morphine patient control analgesia (PCA) with loading dose i.v. titrated by the PACU nurse if pain > 5/10 at rest Group PECS (n=51) will receive US guided pectorals nerves block performed with 30ml of 0.25% levobupivacaine before general anesthesia (TCI-TIVA) induction. Morphine PCA with loading dose i.v. titrated by the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) nurse if pain > 5/10 at rest Primary Outcome Measures: Morphine consumption (mg) (Time Frame: 24 hours) in two Groups Secondary Outcome Measures: Pain at rest and during movement quantified as Numerical Rating Scores (0-10) during the first 24 hours postoperatively. Eventual side effects such as nausea/vomiting. Time necessary to perform the procedure. Pain during procedure execution quantified as Numerical Rating Scores (0-10) Hypnotic and opioids intraoperative consumption to ensure general anesthesia with Bispectral Index between 40 and 60.
Patients with symptomatic or asymptomatic carotid stenosis in whom carotid artery stenting is planned are randomised between antiplatelet therapy with ticagrelor plus aspirin or clopidogrel plus aspirin and examined with brain MRI before and after stent treatment. The proportion of patients with new ischaemic lesions on MRI after treatment is compared between the two groups.
The aim of the study is to determine wether continuous wound infusion with local anaesthetic plus a single dose intravenous morphine is non-inferior to postoperative analgesia provided with continuous thoracic epidural infusion of local anaesthetic plus opiate, in patients undergoing open abdominal aortic aneurism repair.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the superiority of CHF 5993 200/6/12.5 µg pMDI (fixed combination of extrafine beclometasone dipropionate plus formoterol fumarate plus glycopyrronium bromide) versus CHF 1535 200/6 µg pMDI (fixed combination of extrafine beclometasone dipropionate plus formoterol fumarate) and to compare the effect of CHF 5993 200/6/12.5 µg pMDI vs CHF 5993 200/6/12.5 µg plus open-label Tiotropium 2.5µg, in terms of lung functions parameters and rate of exacerbations, as well as to assess its safety and some health economics outcomes.
The primary objectives of this study are to compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of upadacitinib 30 mg once daily (QD) and 15 mg QD versus placebo for the treatment of signs and symptoms of adults with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis who were on a stable dose of csDMARDs and had an inadequate response to csDMARDs.
