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 primary objectives of the study are: - To evaluate the effects of three oral doses of MT-1303 compared to placebo given for a period of 24 weeks in subjects with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) on MRI parameters - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of three oral doses of MT-1303 compared to placebo given for a period of 24 weeks in subjects with RRMS.
The primary objective for this study is to evaluate the proportion of subjects who achieve SVR12 (HCV RNA < LLOQ (target not detected) at post-treatment follow-up Week 12 in subjects with Genotype(GT)-1b, -4 and GT-2, -3
A multi-center, placebo controlled, double-blind trial comparing the efficacy and safety of 18 months of treatment with deferiprone versus placebo in patients with PKAN. This investigator-initiated trial was funded by the European Commission's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013, HEALTH-F2-2011, grant agreement No. 277984) to the TIRCON consortium (Treat Iron-Related Childhood-Onset Neurodegeneration) and by the FDA Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD) (Dr. Elliott Vichinsky).
After laparoscopic total fundoplication (LTF) 12-15% of patients have persistent reflux symptoms and 20-25% develop gas-related symptoms. Reflux symptoms, gas bloating and inability to belch occurring after surgery have been associated with mixed (acid and weakly acid) (MR) or weakly acidic reflux (WAR). To date, few studies have evaluated functional outcome after LTF in patients with MR or WAR, with the majority reporting only short-term results. It has been shown that delayed gastric emptying (DGE) might also be an important factor for abdominal distension and adverse outcome after LTF.9,10 However, the correlation between poor long-term outcome after LTF and DGE is controversial. In addition, the effect of DGE in patients with MR or WAR is poorly investigated.
The purpose of this study is to compare outcomes when patients with chronic sacroiliac joint pain undergo either SI joint fusion with the iFuse Implant System or undergo conservative management of the SI joint
Deferiprone (DFP) is the most extensively studied oral iron chelator to date. It has been authorised in Europe in 1999 for the treatment of iron overload in patients with beta-thalassaemia major when DFO is contraindicated or inadequate. Despite a wide experience of DFP there are limited experimental data available on DFP in children and no pharmacokinetic data in children under 6 years of age. On the basis of the existing data in adults and adolescent, in the DEEP-1 trial a pharmacokinetic bridging model will be developed to support the dose selection in children aged less than 6 years. The study will consist of two phases, namely an experimental phase, during which patients will receive a single dose and a modeling phase, during which PK data obtained after single dose in patients < 6 years of age will be analysed in conjunction with historical PK data in adults and older children and adolescents. The model-based analysis of the data obtained after single dose will enable the assessment of the dosing regimen required for the purpose of accurate pharmacokinetic bridging. The ratio between the predicted systemic exposure parameters (AUC and Cmax) in the target population and reference group will be used as basis for recommendation of the dose in the target population.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of S 303 treated red blood cells (RBCs) in subjects who require chronic transfusion support due to thalassemia major.
The study is designed to compare the clinical benefit following treatment with letrozole in combination with PD-0332991 versus letrozole in combination with placebo in postmenopausal women with ER(+)/HER2(-) advanced breast cancer who have not received prior systemic anti cancer therapies for their advanced/metastatic disease.
This prospective pilot study of 30 pediatric subjects, that are indicated for standard colonoscopy due to follow-up of ulcerative colitis (UC), examines the Given Diagnostic System and the PillCam Colon Capsule in comparison to standard colonoscopy. This study aims 1. To evaluate and compare the accuracy of PillCam ™ Colon capsule endoscopy (PCCE) with standard colonoscopy in the evaluation of colon in pediatric ulcerative colitis. 2. To evaluate the safety of PillCam ™ Colon capsule endoscopy (PCCE) in pediatric age.
Treatments for the macroscopic or pathologic lesions caused by HPV infection can be classified as topical, surgical, destructive, or immunomodulatory. Post surgical treatments generally consist of analgesic, anti-inflammatory and topical antimicrobial agents to reduce the risk of local infections. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of polyhexamethylene biguanide-based vaginal suppositories to a similar chlorhexidine-based treatment, in the post recovery regimen after surgical treatment of cervical lesions. Women who underwent to CO2 laser therapy for cervical lesions are randomly assigned to receive 10 days of antiseptic treatment with chlorhexidine digluconate vaginal suppositories, or polyhexamethylene biguanide vaginal suppositories (Monogin® / BiguanelleTM vaginal suppositories, Lo.Li.Pharma, Italy). A weekly follow-up check was performed for 6 weeks.
