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 study was conducted to explore a new therapy for anemia in participants with end stage renal disease (ESRD) on dialysis. Anemia is a reduced number of red blood cells or hemoglobin. Hemoglobin (which contains iron) is important for the transport of oxygen in your blood. The purpose of this study was to evaluate if roxadustat is effective and safe in the maintenance treatment of anemia in ESRD participants on stable dialysis. Roxadustat was compared to epoetin alfa and darbepoetin alfa, commercially available medicines for treatment of anemia.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and anti-tumor activity of the triple combination of WNT974, LGX818 and cetuximab in BRAFV600-mutant mCRC with RNF43 mutations or RSPO fusions. The design of this study is based upon the translational and pre-clinical data that suggest that Wnt pathway signals, increased due to RNF43 mutations or RSPO fusions, cooperate with the EGFR and BRAF signals to maintain the growth of BRAFV600 CRCs. Inhibition of these signals with the triple combination of WNT974, LGX818 and cetuximab may result in anti-tumor activity.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether treatment with tamoxifen or a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors (NSAI) + goserelin + LEE011 prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) compared to treatment with tamoxifen or a NSAI + goserelin + placebo in premenopausal women with hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer.
Medtronic , Inc. is sponsoring the World-wide Randomized Antibiotic Envelope Infection Prevention Trial (WRAP-IT), a randomized, prospective, multi-center, single blinded, post-market, interventional clinical study. This study will evaluate the ability of the TYRX™ envelope to reduce major Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device (CIED) infections through 12-months post-procedure following CIED generator replacement, upgrade, revision, or de novo cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) implant. Additionally, this large device study provides the unique opportunity to prospectively characterize the performance of Medtronic's lead monitoring features in subjects whose CIED system includes a transvenous right ventricular (RV) defibrillation lead. Finally, the WRAP-IT study will serve as a post-approval study for those geographies requiring a post-approval study of the TYRX™ envelope.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to confirm the efficacy and safety of Dupilumab monotherapy in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).
This is a randomized, controlled, open, three-armed, multi-centre study designed to compare the effects of dual-release hydrocortisone preparations versus conventional glucocorticoid therapy on anthropometric parameters, metabolic syndrome, infectious, immunological profile, cardiovascular system, bone mass and quality of life in patients affected by primary or secondary adrenal insufficiency.
Background: The actual literature is consistent in considering potential negative effects of sub-gingival prosthetic margins on the periodontal health, but no research has focused the attention on the type of prosthetic margin designs. Hence, the aim of the present study is to evaluate if a horizontal finishing line (deep chamfer preparation) may have a different influence on periodontal soft tissue in comparison with a vertical finishing line (feather edge preparation). Methods: A prospective randomized controlled double blind clinical trial with one single operator and three experienced examiners was performed. One hundred and six crowns were prepared with horizontal tooth preparation while ninety-four with vertical tooth preparation. All the margins were positioned within the periodontal sulcus, at 0.5mm sub-gingivally and all the all-ceramic restorations were cemented with resin cement. Periodontal Probing Depth (PPD), Plaque Index (PI), Gingival Index (GI) and Gingival Bleeding on Probing (BOP) were recorded prior to tooth preparation and twelve month after crown cementation. Also, at 12 months follow-up, the gingival margin position was related to the crown margin position.
Aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of a change in the intestinal microflora on the neuro-cognitive profile of patients with HIV infection receiving HAART treatment. Improvements will be evaluated with questionnaires on Quality of life and Cognitive and Behavior function. 20 patients will be enrolled and will receive 4 sachets of VSL#3 per day.
BIOLUX P-III is a prospective, international, multi-centre, postmarket all-comers registry to collect clinical performance data on the Passeo-18 Lux paclitaxel releasing balloon catheter in the treatment of atherosclerotic disease of the infrainguinal arteries.
This study is being conducted to find out whether lacosamide (a drug to treat epilepsy) is effective in routine clinical practice for patients with epilepsy caused by a brain tumor.
