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 Phase 3 study is conducted to evaluate lanifibranor in adults with NASH and liver fibrosis histological stage F2 or F3
Randomized, 3-arm controlled clinical study, to evaluate the effectiveness of supplementation with Vertistop® D (food supplement containing alpha-lipoic acid at modified release, Carnosine and Zinc, Vitamin D and Vitamins B) and Vertistop® L (food supplement containing fast releasing alpha-lipoic acid, Carnosine, Zinc and Curcumin) in preventing recurrence of high-recurrence BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo)
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) refers to a lower respiratory tract nosocomial infection acquired >48h after being intubated in Intensive Care Units. Pathogenesis of VAP is mechanical and associated with microaspiration and leakage of oropharyngeal secretions around the endotracheal tube. A novel approach to VAP will attempt to explore how the abrupt ecological order of acute infection (high bacterial biomass, low community diversity) emerges from the dynamic homeostasis of a pre-existing ecosystem in which lung microbiota and local immunity interaction play their essential role. Therefore, the investigators aim to explore if oral and lung microbiota modifications with local immunity changes, contribute in the pathogenesis of VAP in patients intubated for non-pulmonary reasons. Early changes in the host microbiota with the innate immunity system impairs tissue homeostasis and may represent a new distinct condition and a potential tool for early diagnosis and prevention of VAP.
Primary Objective: To describe the effect of routine practice with alglucosidase alfa in patients with IOPD ≤6 months of age, on invasive ventilation-free survival after 52 weeks of treatment. Secondary Objectives: - To describe the effect of routine practice with alglucosidase alfa on invasive ventilation-free survival and survival at 12 and 18 months of age, as well as on change in left ventricular mass (LVM) Z score, Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) score, body weight, body length, and head circumference Z scores, and urinary glucose tetrasaccharide (Hex4), at Week 52 of treatment. - To describe the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of alglucosidase alfa in the routine practice of IOPD treatment.
The purpose of this study is to collect long-term safety and tolerability data for aficamten (CK-3773274)
This is a multicentre observational study with the aim of evaluating the antibody and cellular response after vaccination for SARS-CoV-2 with Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccines in frail subjects with impaired immuno-competence, due to their underlying diseases or ongoing therapies.
This study compares insulin icodec (a new insulin) to insulin degludec (an insulin already available on the market) in people with type 1 diabetes. The study will look at how well insulin icodec taken weekly controls blood sugar compared to insulin degludec taken daily. Participants will either get insulin icodec that participants will have to inject once a week on the same day of the week, or insulin degludec that participants will have to inject once a day at the same time every day. Which treatment participants get is decided at random. Participants will also get a mealtime insulin. The insulin is injected with a needle in a skin fold in the thigh, upper arm or stomach. The study will last for about 1 year and 2 months. Participants will have 28 clinic visits and 28 phone calls with the study doctor. At 11 clinic visits participants will have blood samples taken. At 6 clinic visits participants cannot eat or drink (except for water) for 8 hours before the visit. Participants will be asked to wear a sensor that measures your blood sugar all the time. Participants will be asked to wear it for a total of 57 weeks (around 1 year). Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.
TRIAL LAC is a randomized double-blind non profit multicenter study with a nutritional product: bovine lactoferrin - Mosiac 200 mg. the hypothesis to be confirmed is that bovine LF, administered daily orally in addition to standard therapies for 1 month to hospitalized patients with Covid-19 infection, can be useful to limit the severity, progression of the disease, shorten the time of swabs negativization (i.e. time required to eliminate the virus) and to reduce the morbidity load associated with it. Patient recruitment will involve 2 centers in Italy: Ospedale degli Infermi (Ponderano, Biella) and AOU Maggiore della Carità (Novara). The subjects enrolled will be randomized to two Groups: Group A (experimental arm) - Standard Anti-Covid-19 Therapy + Oral Administration of Bovine Lactoferrin (fixed dose 800 mg / day) for 30 days Group B (control arm) - Standard anti-Covid-19 therapy + Placebo administration (identical capsule with the same amount as an inert compound, starch of corn powder), according to the same pattern of use. It should be specified that the study treatment and placebo will be administered in addition to the standard care in place, and therefore in addition to all the pharmacological treatments currently used in clinical hospital practice against Covid-19.
Prospective, randomized, controlled, longitudinal, interventional multicentric study involving patients with reticular pseudodrusen secondary to AMD. The objective of this study is to establish the effectiveness of subthreshold laser treatment in increase/prevent the decrease of the retinal sensibility in patients with reticular pseudodrusen, and to reduce the progression of RPD to atrophy. Approximately 50 naïve patients with reticular pseudodrusen who underwent subthreshold laser treatment in perifoveal area. These patients should be randomized in the 2 study arms of the study. Patients will be evaluated at Screening/Baseline and then revaluated and retreated at month 3, 6 and 9. At month 12, all patients will be evaluated with a full ocular examination, visual acuity measurement (VA), optical coherence tomography (OCT) with autofluorescence, OCT-angiography and microperimetry. The rationale of the study is to prevent the evolution of reticular pseudodrusen to atrophic degeneration.
This is a retrospective, multinational, non-interventional, observational study. A series of cohort studies will be conducted to assess the prevalence of undiagnosed stage 3 CKD in each region. The study will also assess the current state of CKD management in patients with undiagnosed CKD
