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 is to evaluate PledOx for prevention of chronic chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy induced by oxaliplatin in patients with Stage III or high-risk Stage II colorectal cancer (CRC).
A phase II open-label, single arm study aimed to ascertain whether infusions of cord-blood mesenchymal stromal cells (CB-MSCs) allow to reduce or suspend the chronic immunosuppressive therapy (IS) in steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome (SDNS). We plan to enroll 11 patients aged 3 to 18 with SDNS in remission for at least one month, maintained by either ≥2 immunosuppressive drugs or a calcineurin inhibitor. Patients are infused with cord-blood allogenic MSC, selected by in-vitro alloreactivity, at a dose of 1.5x10^6/kg on days 0, 14, 21. The immunosuppressive treatment is gradually tapered starting at the first CB-MSC administration, according to the following scheme: 25% following the first administration, 50% following the second administration, and 100% reduction following the third administration. All patients will be followed-up for 6 months from the last CB-MSC. Study visits are planned at baseline during CB-MSC administrations, 2 weeks (follow-up [FU]1) and 6 weeks (FU2) after the last infusion, and then every 6 weeks. During follow-up, the patients undergo a physical examination (including measurement of height, weight and blood pressure) and laboratory evaluations (urinary protein:urinary creatinine ratio, complete blood count, kidney function, plasma proteins, liver function, triglycerides and cholesterol). In addition, a blood sample is taken for regulatory T lymphocyte quantification, a marker of clinical response to the infusions.
The study aims to identify risk factors for the development of Celiac Diseases in families with a recognized genetic risk for the presence of a confirmed proband case. Candidate mother will be recruited before a planned pregnancy or within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Familial and environmental risk factors will be evaluated within the couple of parents. Pregnancy will be followed up and appropriate biological samples collected. Delivery will be supervised in order to collect biological samples. Newborns will be controlled from birth up to the 6th year of age. Data about clinical events related to health, life attitudes, nutrition will be collected together with biological samples either in the pregnant mother as well as in the infant.
The aim of the study is to identify the most effective method of intervention to reduce hypophonia in PwMS (Patient With Multiple Sclerosis), as a way to optimize the speech-therapy treatment based on scientific evidence. In the previous AB study, we aimed to verify the efficacy of LSVT LOUD® in PwSM: in the present study we will compare different treatment in a larger sample. Half of the participants will follow the LSVT Loud program, the other half will follow usual care rehabilitation programs. The results of these groups will be compared with an historical cohort of no treatment patients.
This is a randomized control pilot study to assess the effect of intermittent hypoxia therapy on functional capacity vs conventional care in old patients with functional impairment admitted to a Phase 2 in-hospital cardiac rehabilitation program.
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of obinutuzumab in clinical routine in 1L FL measured by the % of relapse within 24 months from start of therapy.
A retrospective consecutive population of patients treated with cementless total hip arthroplasty with ceramic-on-ceramic bearing surfaces due to post-traumatic osteoarthritis due to acetabular fractures will be selected. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the long-term clinical and radiographic results of this implant in such a specific cohort. The secondary aim of the sudy is to provide the complication rate and the failure rate of the cohort. A descriptive analysis of the failures will be provided as well.
The extraction of deep impacted mandibular third molar may cause periodontal defects at the distal root of the second molar. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) in preventing periodontal complications at the distal root of the second molar adjacent to the extracted third molar.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of guselkumab in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).
Primary Objective: To evaluate the effect of dupilumab on sleep quality in adult participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD). Secondary Objectives: To evaluate the effect of dupilumab on objective and subjective quantitative sleep parameters, AD related outcomes, and daytime consequences of sleep deprivation. To continue to assess the safety and tolerability throughout the study.
