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 compare maintenance Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs) + everolimus with Aromatase Inhibitors alone after 1st line chemotherapy in patients with HR+ metastatic breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of long-term dosing with ALN-TTR02 (patisiran) in participants with transthyretin (TTR) mediated amyloidosis (ATTR).
Dry eye is a multifactorial disease of the tears and ocular surface that results in symptoms of discomfort, visual disturbance, and tear film instability with potential damage to the ocular surface. It is accompanied by increased osmolarity of the tear film and inflammation of the ocular surface. Lubricin is a mucin-like glycoprotein originally discovered in synovial fluid, as a secreted product of cells that line the joint tissues, which is present at the surface of articular cartilage and it has been investigated on its roles at the ocular surface, in normal and pathologic conditions such as dry eye. The objective of the study is to assess the tolerability, safety and efficacy of Lubricin eye drops solution administered over 4 weeks versus sodium hyaluronate (Na-HY) eye drops solution in subjects with moderate dry eye.
This is a Phase 1, open-label, first-in-human (FIH) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and antineoplastic activity of avapritinib (formerly BLU-285), administered orally (PO), in adult patients with unresectable GIST or other relapsed or refractory solid tumors. The study consists of 2 parts, a dose-escalation part (Part 1) and an expansion part (Part 2).
This is a Phase 1, open-label, first-in-human (FIH) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary antineoplastic activity of fisogatinib (formerly known as BLU- 554) administered orally in patients with FGF19 IHC+ hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The study consists of 3 parts, a dose-escalation part (Part 1), an expansion part (Part 2) exploring a once daily (qd) dosing schedule at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), and a Part 3 expansion of the qd dosing schedule at the RP2D in TKI naive patients.

Phantom limb pain (PLP) is a frequent consequence of amputation, and it is notoriously difficult to treat. Amputation usually follows traumatic injuries or surgery following vascular diseases, diabetes, osteomyelitis or tumours in cases where the loss of the limb is required for the survival of the patient. The loss of a limb or other body parts is usually followed by the sensation that the lost body part is still present and can be felt. These phenomena are called, respectively, phantom awareness and phantom sensation. In 50-80% of amputees neuropathic pain develops in the lost limb also referred to as phantom limb pain (PLP). PLP can be related to a certain position or movement of the phantom limb, and might be elicited or worsened by a range of physical factors (e.g. changes in the weather or pressure on the residual limb) and psychological factors (e.g. emotional stress). It is well known that most treatments available for PLP today, such as pharmacological, surgical, anaesthetic, psychological and other, are ineffective. Today it is believed that phantom limb pain may be related to changes in the cortex of the brain. There is evidence that these changes may be modulated - or even reversed - by providing sensory input to the stump or amputation zone. For example, cortical reorganization and alleviation of phantom limb pain has been observed in amputees following intense use of a hand prosthesis. However, there is no consistent knowledge on which type of peripheral sensory feedback may be effective in affecting the cortical plasticity or on how to best apply the sensory feedback. The aim of the proposed research is to create natural, meaningful sensations through providing sensory feedback (i.e. surface or neural electrical stimulation) and the effectiveness to alleviate phantom limb pain and restore the cortical neuroplastic changes.
The aim of the investigators' study is to investigate if the use of the AirSeal insufflation system impairs ventilatory parameters of patients less than a conventional system in patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic cystectomy.
This is a prospective phase 2, single-arm, mono-center pilot study. It has been designed to investigate whether giving the combination therapy consisting of minimal islet transplantation (1500 EIQ/Kg body weight), Thymoglobulin® (ATG), Rapamune® (rapamycin) and Neulasta® (pegfilgastrim) to patients with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) at onset is safe and secondarily, if it will preserve insulin production. It will involve 6 patients with new-onset T1D. Each patient will be involved in the study for a screening period and a post-islet transplantation study period of 52±2 weeks, to include 1 treatment cycles of 12 weeks, assessment during treatment and 5 follow-up visits scheduled at weeks 2±1 (14 days), 4±1 (month 1), 12±2 (month 3), 26±2 (month 6) and 52±2 (month 12).
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of propranolol 0.2% eye drops in treating preterm newborns with a precocious stage of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Preterm newborns (gestational age 23-32 weeks) with a stage 1 ROP will receive propranolol 0.2% eye drops treatment until retinal vascularization will be completed, but no more than 90 days. Propranolol concentrations will be measured on dried blood spots at the steady state (10th day). Cardiovascular and respiratory parameters will be continuously monitored. Blood samplings checking metabolic, renal and liver functions will be performed periodically, as well as cardiac function, in order to verify the treatment safety. Serial ophthalmological evaluations will be planned to monitor the efficacy of the treatment, the ROP progression and the possible complications.
