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.
Epidemiologic, social and economic burdens of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) keep rising worldwide. Implementation of T2DM preventive trategies is lagging behind. Metabolic surgery, very low calorie diet can induce T2DM remission, but so far for few patients. The investigators will assess the efficacy to cause T2DM remission (primary end point) and direct costs to the National Health System of a 4-month polychemotherapy (metformin+pioglitazone+sitagliptin+empagliflozin) regimen vs standard care in patients with newly diagnosed T2DM by an open label, pragmatic RCT. Mechanisms of action will be investigated in a sub-cohort by a prolonged OGTT plus dual tracer technique and modeling of beta cell function. If proved efficacious in this proof-of-concept study and inducer of durable remission in the future, T2DM polychemotherapy will turn out to be a convenient, relatively unexpensive strategy to restrain prevalence of T2DM and its complications and to alleviate its personal, social and economic burden.
Primary Objectives: - Safety run-in: To confirm the recommended dose of isatuximab when combined with lenalidomide and dexamethasone in participants with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) - Randomized Phase 3: To demonstrate the clinical benefit of isatuximab in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone in the prolongation of progression-free survival when compared to lenalidomide and dexamethasone in subjects with high-risk SMM Secondary Objectives: Safety run-in - To assess overall response rate (ORR) - To assess duration of response (DOR) - To assess minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity in participants achieving very good partial response (VGPR) or complete response (CR) - To assess time to diagnostic (SLiM CRAB) progression or death - To assess time to first-line treatment for multiple myeloma (MM) - To assess the potential immunogenicity of isatuximab - Impact of abnormal cytogenetic subtype on participant outcome Randomized Phase 3 - Key Secondary Objectives: To compare between the arms - MRD negativity - Sustained MRD negativity - Second progression-free survival (PFS2) - Overall survival Other Secondary Objectives: To evaluate in both arms - CR rate - ORR - DOR - Time to diagnostic (SLiM CRAB) progression - Time to biochemical progression - Time to first-line treatment for MM - Safety and tolerability - Pharmacokinetics (PK) - Potential of isatuximab immunogenicity - Clinical outcome assessments (COAs)
DISSECT-N is a post-market registry designed to assess real-world safety and effectiveness of Valiant Navion Thoracic Stent Graft System in the treatment of thoracic aortic dissections in real world practice.
The main aim is to see how the combination of pevonedistat + venetoclax + azacitidine compares to venetoclax + azacitidine in adults recently diagnosed with AML who are unable to be treated with intensive chemotherapy. Participants will receive either pevonedistat + venetoclax + azacitidine or venetoclax + azacitidine in 28-day treatment cycles. Bone marrow samples (biopsy) will be collected throughout the study. Pevonedistat will be given as an intravenous (IV) infusion and Azacitidine will be given through IV or subcutaneous (under the skin). Study treatments may continue as long as the participant is receiving benefit from it. Participants may choose to stop treatment at any time.
This is a Phase III multi-center, randomized, two-arm parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of MBG453 or placebo added to azacitidine in adult subjects with intermediate, high or very high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) as per IPSS-R, or Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia-2 (CMML-2) who are not eligible for intensive chemotherapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) according to medical judgment by the investigator. The purpose of the current study is to assess clinical effects of MBG453 in combination with azacitidine in adult subjects with IPSS-R intermediate, high, very high risk MDS and CMML-2.
PEGASUS is a prospective multi-centric study designed to prove the feasibility of using liquid biopsy to guide the post-surgical and post-adjuvant clinical management in 140 microsatellite stable Stage-III and T4N0 Stage-II colon cancer patients.
Disease activity and response to therapy in ulcerative colitis (UC) can be assessed by a range of endpoints including symptoms, endoscopic mucosal activity, histological disease activity, and biomarkers. This study aims to determine the optimal treatment target, which is a research priority for the management of UC both to inform clinical practice and to help inform regulatory endpoints and targets for drug development. Participants with active UC will be randomized in a 5:4:1 (initially 2:3:5) ratio to 1 of 3 groups, each with a different treatment target. Treatment targets will be defined as: - Group 1: corticosteroid-free symptomatic remission - Group 2: corticosteroid-free endoscopic + symptomatic remission - Group 3: corticosteroid-free histological + endoscopic + symptomatic remission An interim analysis was performed to assess the proportion of subjects that reached their assigned treatment target after 50 subjects in each group had reached the first 32-week assessment. The interim analysis and projections made based on target achievement rates for all subjects included in the interim analysis resulted in a recommendation to adjust the randomization ratio from 2:3:5 to 5:4:1 for Groups 1, 2 and 3 respectively as of May 5th, 2023. This change was necessary in order to complete the study with approximately 100 subjects achieving treatment target within each group.
The objectives of this study are to confirm safety, performance and clinical benefits of the ASHCOM Shoulder System and its related instruments by analysis of standard scoring systems, radiographs and adverse event records.
The objective of this study is to compare two surgical techniques for the treatment of the maxillary and mandibular bone atrophies.. Therefore, the main purpose is to compare the (i) the percentage of post-operative complications (ii) the three-dimensional bone gain with customized titanium meshes (test group - the medical device is digitally designed and made with customized laser sintering modality, customized to the defect of each patient) and with titanium-reinforced PTFE mesh (control group - the medical device is cut, shaped, and manually modelled to the patient's defect by the operator himself.
This study will evaluate the efficacy of tiragolumab plus atezolizumab and carboplatin and etoposide (CE) compared with placebo plus atezolizumab and CE in participants with chemotherapy-naive extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). Eligible participants will be stratified by Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (0 vs. 1), LDH (</= upper limit of normal [ULN] vs. > ULN), and presence or history of brain metastasis (yes vs. no) and randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive one of the following treatment regimens during induction phase: - Arm A: Tiragolumab plus atezolizumab plus CE - Arm B: Placebo plus atezolizumab plus CE Following the induction phase, participants will continue maintenance therapy with either atezolizumab plus tiragolumab (Arm A) or atezolizumab plus placebo (Arm B).
