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 primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of mavrilimumab (KPL-301) versus placebo, co-administered with a 26-week corticosteroid taper, for maintaining sustained remission for 26 weeks in subjects with new onset or relapsing/refractory giant cell arteritis (GCA).
This study aims at assessing the correlation between trans esophageal pressure and related respiratory mechanics (including, among others, nasal pressure-Pnose) and non-invasive respiratory support failure in patients with acute hypoxic respiratory failure of different etiology (including COVID-19).
The " CirB-RNA " cohort aims to create a biological collection associated with clinical and biological data from patients with hepatitis B infection. This project is part of a much larger program that aims to characterize and quantify circulating viral RNAs as a possible new biomarker of hepatitis B functional cure.
This study aims to fill the gap of knowledge on the biopsychosocial (BPS) characteristics and resilience of young adults newly diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, to evaluate the relationship among these variables, and to develop a BPS model of resilience.
Nine-weeks double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-arm superiority study. The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of a mix of four bioactive compounds - bacopa, lycopene, astaxanthin and vitamin B12 - on cognitive performance, mood state and well-being in subjects aged ≥ 60 years with no evidence of cognitive dysfunction. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the changes in Trial Making Test (TMT) scores from baseline (V2) to 8 weeks of treatment (V4), analyzed in the following hierarchical order: TMT-B, TMT-A and TMT B-A. Secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate changes from baseline (V2) to 8 weeks of treatment (V4) in Verbal Fluency Test (VFT) score, Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score, Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) score, Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (AVLT), psychological well-being as assessed by General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12), mood states as assessed by the Profile of Mood Stated (POMS), sexual satisfaction as evaluated by the New Sexual Satisfaction Scale (NSSS). Changes of metabolic parameters from baseline (V2) to 4 weeks of treatment (V3) and from baseline (V2) to 8 weeks of treatment (V4) will be also evaluated as secondary objectives (glucose, insulin, Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, uric acid). Changes of plasma markers of oxidative stress from baseline (V2) to 4 weeks of treatment (V3) and from baseline (V2) to 8 weeks of treatment (V4) will be evaluated as secondary objectives (8-iso-Prostaglandin F2alpha, Plasma malondialdehyde). Finally the safety and tolerability of the study product will be assessed.
Cabozantinib plus Durvalumab in patients with advanced and chemotherapy-treated bladder carcinoma, of urothelial and non-urothelial histology: an open-label, single-centre, phase 2, single-arm proof-of-concept trial: ARCADIA study
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for disease involving the aortic arch remains complex and challenging due the angulation and tortuosity of the arch and its peculiar biomechanical environment. Currently, TEVAR planning is based on the analysis of anatomical features by means of static imaging protocols. Such an approach, however, disregards the impact of pulsatile forces that are transmitted as migration forces on the terminal fixation sites of the endograft, and may jeopardize the long-term clinical success of the procedure. Hence,the investigators aim to assess the migration forces acting on different proximal landing zones of the aortic arch by computational modeling, and develop in silico patient-specific simulations that can provide a quantitative evaluation of the stent-graft performance. Study's results are expected to provide valuable insights for proper proximal landing zone and stent-graft selection during TEVAR planning, and ultimately improve postoperative outcome.
Nutritional status in critically ill pediatric patients is considered a fundamental prognostic factor in terms of mortality, morbidity, complications and outcome. Many studies report how predictive equations most commonly applied are inaccurate, therefore under or over estimating the body energy requirements. For this reason, actual measurement of resting energy expenditure (REE) through indirect calorimetry (IC) is considered to be a better approach. Currently, IC is not validated during the use of non-invasive ventilation. Aim of the present study is to validate the measurement of REE with IC in pediatric patients undergoing non-invasive ventilation through a single-limb circuit with intentional leak.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the quality of life of patients undergoing colorectal resection for deep infiltrating endometriosis of the bowel. Questionnaires about pre operative status have been submitted retrospectively, while post operative questionnaires have been submitted prospectively during last follow up visit
