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, multi-center, open label, non-randomized study, evaluating the treating of medial meniscus deficiency with the NUsurface Meniscus Implant.
The study hypothesis under test is that administration of a CCR2/5 antagonist to subjects with type 2 diabetes and overt nephropathy will result in a reduction in urinary albumin, a surrogate for improved glomerular filtration.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether baricitinib therapy alone is noninferior to methotrexate (MTX) therapy alone in the treatment of moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in those who have had limited or no treatment with MTX and are naive to other conventional or biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs).
Heart Failure (HF) is one of the most frequent diagnoses upon hospitalization and is a major cause of death. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) using an implantable device for synchronous bi-ventricular stimulation leads to improvement of hemodynamic parameters, physical capacity and quality of life. A continuous measurement of the left-ventricular volume would provide information about heart performance and could be used for both heart failure monitoring and optimization of CRT-therapy.
To collect uniform and meaningful data on patients with Pompe disease who experience anaphylaxis, severe allergic reactions, and/or signals of severe cutaneous and/or systemic immune complex-mediated reactions following treatment with alglucosidase alfa.
The primary objective of the study is to determine the percentage of patients with "therapeutic success" at the end of the cycle of antibiotic therapy (10 days), in the two treatment groups (levofloxacin and prulifloxacin). The effect of study treatments will be evaluated on the basis of a score determined in relation to the signs-symptoms of acute exacerbation of COPD (sputum purulence, sputum volume, cough, dyspnea, fever)
In this study the effectiveness of degarelix, a long acting GnRH antagonist administered in a unique administration of 20 mg the first day of menstrual cycle, to prevent ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in PCOS women at risk to develop OHSS.
Assessed the efficacy of deferasirox in patients with non-transfusion dependent thalassemia based on change in liver iron concentration from baseline after 52 weeks of treatment. Provided further assessment of the long-term efficacy and safety of deferasirox in NTDT patients with iron overload (LIC ≥ 5 mg Fe/g liver dw and SF ≥ 300 ng/mL) for up to 260 weeks.
Primary Objective: To demonstrate that sarilumab added to disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) is effective for: - reduction of signs and symptoms at Week 24 and - improvement of physical function at Week 12 in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are inadequate responders or intolerant to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) antagonists. Secondary Objectives: The secondary objectives are to investigate the effects of SAR153191 (REGN88) when added to DMARD therapy, in patients with active RA who are inadequate responders or intolerant to TNF-α antagonists, for: - Reduction of signs and symptoms at 12 weeks. - Improvement in physical function at Week 24. - Improvement in disease activity score as measured by other American College of Rheumatology derived components at Weeks 12 and 24. - Improvement in quality of life as measured by patient reported outcomes (PROs) at intermediate visits and Week 24. To assess the safety of sarilumab in this population. To assess the exposure of sarilumab added to DMARD therapy in this population.
This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled, parallel-group, multi-national, multi-center study to compare alirocumab (REGN727/SAR236553) versus ezetimibe in participants with primary hypercholesterolemia and moderate, high, or very high CV risk, who are intolerant to statins. An atorvastatin arm is added to determine that the population selected in the study is a truly statin intolerant population by assessing skeletal muscle-related adverse events.
