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 serum protein research study is a substudy of the core study 'Maintenance Chemotherapy in Hormone Non-responsive Breast Cancer'. This substudy is an evaluation of blood proteins and their relationship to breast cancer treatment. It will assess the levels of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), Soluble HER2 Protein (NRP, neu-related protein) and Vascular Cellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in serum samples of patients' blood at different time points. The goal is to evaluate differences in serum levels between patients receiving the maintenance chemotherapy and those who do not. The serum levels will be also examined to determine if they vary during the three year period of evaluation. In addition, the serum levels of patients who have a recurrence of their breast cancer will be compared with those who remain disease free. The information obtained from these studies will enable breast cancer physicians to better tailor therapies for future patients.
A Two-arm, Phase 1b/2 Study of duvelisib Administered in Combination with Rituximab or Obinutuzumab in Subjects with Previously Untreated CD20+ Follicular Lymphoma.
The study's primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of retosiban to prolong pregnancy and improve neonatal outcomes compared with placebo. It is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, multicenter study and will be conducted in approximately 900 females, aged 12 to 45 years, with an uncomplicated, singleton pregnancy and intact membranes in preterm labor between 24^0/7 and 33^6/7 weeks of gestation. Eligible maternal subjects will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either retosiban IV infusion or placebo IV infusion over 48 hours. If not previously administered, antenatal corticosteroid treatment should be administered as either (1) two 12-mg doses of betamethasone given intramuscularly 24 hours apart or (2) four 6-mg doses of betamethasone administered intramuscularly every 12 hours. A single rescue course of antenatal corticosteroids is permitted if the antecedent treatment was at least 7 days prior to study enrolment. Investigators have discretion to use a standardized regimen of magnesium sulphate, as well as intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis for perinatal group B streptococcal infection. Prior to randomization, each subject will be stratified by progesterone treatment and gestational age. The progesterone strata will consist of subjects on established progesterone therapy or subjects not on established progesterone therapy at Screening. The study will comprise 6 phases: Screening, Inpatient Randomized Treatment, Post Infusion Assessment, Delivery, Maternal Post-Delivery Assessment, and Neonatal Medical Review. The duration of any subject's (maternal or neonatal) participation in the study will be variable and dependent on gestational ages (GA) at study entry and the date of delivery.
The objective of this study is to evaluate long-term safety of gevokizumab in patient with chronic non-infectious uveitis who previously well tolerated the study drug and may benefit from longterm treatment with gevokizumab.
Selected patients with early stage breast cancer undergone conservative surgery were randomized in two arms: Hypofractionated Whole Breast Irradiation versus Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation.
Aim of this trial is to assess the efficacy of new anti-CD20 antibody (GA101) in association with DHAP as induction therapy before high dose chemotherapy BEAM with ASCT in patients with relapsed/refractory DLBCL.
The purpose of this study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of the Epigenetic Modifying Effects of CC-486 (Oral Azacitidine) in Combination With Fulvestrant in Postmenopausal Women with estrogen receptor positive (ER+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2-) Metastatic Breast Cancer Who Have Progressed on an Aromatase Inhibitor (AI).
To investigate the effect of hand massage, switched on diathermy or sham/switched off diathermy on DOMS in a group of athletes suffering DOMS after a ski mountaineering race.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the impact on quality of life of Lanreotide Autogel 120 mg in combination with standard care, in comparison to the standard care alone, in subjects affected by inoperable malignant bowel obstruction.
This study was originally designed as a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group study, using a placebo control or amatuximab 5 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg), administered weekly, designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of amatuximab in combination with pemetrexed and cisplatin in participants with unresectable Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) who have not received prior systemic therapy. Per a business decision made by the Sponsor, participants who were randomized to amatuximab and were still on active treatment at the time of the protocol amendment may have consented to continue to receive weekly treatment with amatuximab until disease progression or intolerable toxicity at the discretion of the principal investigator. Participants randomized to placebo or who were in follow-up at the time of the amendment have been discontinued from the study.
