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 investigators provided a multicenter analysis aiming to investigate, in a clinical practice setting, the prognostic relevance of previous primary radical prostatectomy (RP) or external beam radiotherapy (RT) in terms of Overall Survival as opposed to patients with no primary treatment performed, in a cohort of patients enrolled in 223-Ra treatment for mCRPC. 223-Ra has been administered from investigators according to the current label authorization and all patients underwent 223-Ra treatment, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Non-randomized, multicenter, combined prospective and retrospective cohort analysis consisting of a single arm treated with the MicroStent™ System.
This study aim to evaluate the correlation between Quality of Life (QoL) and severity of Parkinson's Disease (PD) by assessing the presence of an optimal cut-off point on the Parkinson's disease questionnaire (PDQ-39) as related to the Hoehn & Yahr (H&Y) scale in a cohort of Italian adults with PD. A multicenter, cross-sectional study was performed in central and northern Italy. This study was conducted on a cohort of consecutive individuals at three neurologic outpatient clinics. All participants were evaluated with the PDQ-39, and the severity of PD was recorded according to the H&Y scale by a neurologist. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and coordinates of the curve, which were visually inspected, were used to find cut-off points with optimal sensitivity and specificity. These were in turn used to determine the optimal PDQ-39 cut-off score for identifying disease severity according to H&Y stages.
A randomized multi-arm study evaluating the efficacy and safety of nivolumab versus placebo in combination with neoadjuvant (pre-surgery) chemotherapy and adjuvant (post-surgery) endocrine therapy in participants with high-risk, estrogen receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (ER+, HER2-) early stage breast cancer.
Dysglycemia is an important pre-risk condition which can potentially lead to diabetes if not adequately treated. The variation of glycemic balance can lead to cardiovascular disorders. The study will evaluate if Reglicem®, a nutraceutical containing Berberine, Curcumin, Inositol, Banaba, and Chromium Picolinate, can ameliorate glycemic status in patients with dysglycemia.
The aim will be to evaluate if Glicoset® 1000, a nutraceutical containing Ilex Paraguariensis, White Mulberry and Chromium Picolinate, can be effective in improving glycemic status in subject with dysglycemia.
Smoke is still a significant Public Health problem. The Emergency Departments (EDs) could be the ideal setting to set up smoke cessation interventions (high prevalence of smoking patient compared to the general population). The structured brief counseling 5As based (ask, advice, asses, assist, arrange) is an effective Public Health intervention when performed by the General Practitioners. Still not clear is its feasibility and effectiveness in the ED setting. Aim of the study. To assess the feasibility and effectiveness of the 5As based counselling in the University ED of Novara compared to the "usual care".
The aim of our study will be to assess in an open-label, multicenter, randomized controlled trial whether a tailored therapy guided by a non-invasive antibiotic susceptibility test on stool samples achieves higher Helicobacter eradication rates than an empiric antibiotic regimen. For this purpose, consecutive patients with dyspeptic symptoms, diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection and naïve to eradicating treatments will be allocated to either of the two intervention arms.
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the Penumbra SMART COIL® System, including the WAVE™ Extra Soft Coils (WAVE) as a fill and finish coil, in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Imaging will be analyzed by an independent core lab to assess aneurysm occlusion rates and perform a comparative analysis between imaging modalities.
Primary Objective: - To describe the clinical features and their severity at the time of diagnosis and their evolution over time in patients with confirmed chronic visceral and chronic neurovisceral forms of ASMD - To describe Clinician-Reported Outcomes (ClinROs) and Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) at enrollment and their evolution over time; disease severity at the time of diagnosis and its evolution over time Secondary Objectives: - To describe abnormal values in laboratory parameters and all values of specific clinical and imaging assessments at the time of diagnosis and their evolution over time - To study the use and applicability towards validation of a newly developed ASMD disease severity scoring system - To study the use and applicability towards validation of a newly developed ASMD PRO tool - To describe ASMD-related disease burden among patients with ASMD, caregivers, and healthcare resource utilization - To describe the association between patient demographics (eg, age, gender, race, Ashkenazi ancestry) and genotype with selected clinical features in patients with confirmed chronic visceral and chronic neurovisceral forms of ASMD
