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 study was a Phase II, single-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to determine whether anti-vWF Nanobody is safe and effective as adjunctive treatment in patients with aTTP. Patients received either placebo or anti-vWF Nanobody as adjunctive therapy to plasma exchange (PE).
The present study will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity in healthy people (non-elderly adult and elderly subjects) after one intramuscular (IM) dose of trivalent subunit inactivated flu vaccine.
The Zenith® TX2® Low Profile TAA Endovascular Graft study is a clinical trial approved by US FDA to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Zenith® TX2® Low Profile TAA Endovascular Graft indicated for the treatment of patients with aneurysms/ulcers of the descending thoracic aorta having vessel structure suitable for repair.
The main hypothesis are: 1. Passive and Active-Passive airway conditioning devices reduce the incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia 2. Active-Passive airway conditioning devices reduce the incidence of endotracheal tube obstruction 3. Nurses' workload is reduced with Passive and Active-Passive airway conditioning devices
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, cisplatin, epirubicin hydrochloride, and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving gemcitabine hydrochloride, with or without cisplatin, epirubicin hydrochloride, and capecitabine before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. Giving these drugs after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II/III trial is studying how well gemcitabine hydrochloride, with or without cisplatin, epirubicin hydrochloride, and capecitabine, works when given before and/or after surgery in treating patients with stage I or stage II pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery.
The reason for this extension is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of two concentration-controlled everolimus regimen in de novo liver transplant recipients. The most important long-term safety assessments include evaluation of renal function, progression of HCV related allograft fibrosis, and other treatment related effects at Month 36 post-transplantation compared to extension baseline (Months 24 post-transplantation).
This is an open-label, Phase II Clinical Trial of Aplidin® (plitidepsin) in Patients with Primary Myelofibrosis and post polycythemia vera/essential thrombocythemia (Post-PV/ET) Myelofibrosis.
The purpose of this clinical study is to examine the safety, immunogenicity and clinical activity of the immunotherapeutic product GSK2302025A (also referred to as recPRAME + AS15 Antigen-Specific Cancer Immunotherapeutic [ASCI]) administered as a first line treatment in patients with unresectable and progressive metastatic cutaneous melanoma.
Early single instillation of chemotherapy after TUR is recommended in the European Association of Urology Guidelines. Nevertheless, the procedure is suboptimal for patients with multiple tumors, sometimes is not tolerated and it can results in severe complications. In both laboratory and clinical studies, intravesical electromotive drug administration (EMDA) increases mitomycin-C (MMC) bladder uptake, resulting in an improved clinical efficacy in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). The investigators will compare the effects of one immediate pre-TUR intravesical EMDA/MMC instillation with one immediate post-TUR intravesical passive diffusion MMC (PD/MMC) instillation and TUR alone in patients with NMIBC. All eligible patients with primary NMIBC will be randomized into 3 groups who will undergo transurethral resection alone (TUR/alone); TUR plus single immediate postoperative instillation (immediately after TUR) of 40 mg PD/MMC with a dwell time of 60 minutes; or single immediate preoperative instillation (immediately before TUR) of 40 mg EMDA/MMC with 20 mA electric current for 30 minutes. Patients with intermediate and high risk NMIBC will undergo adjuvant intravesical therapy. The primary end points will be the recurrence rate and disease-free interval. All clinical analyses will be performed on an intent to treat basis.
The study has the purpose to compare R-CHOP versus R-mini-CEOP in elderly patients (>65 years) with Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).
