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 Phase 3 multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apremilast in subjects with moderate to severe genital psoriasis (modified sPGA-G ≥3, moderate or severe). Approximately 286 subjects with moderate to severe genital psoriasis will be randomized 1:1 to receive either apremilast 30 mg BID or placebo for the first 16 weeks.
The study evaluates a novel web-based application for monitoring the postoperative pain in patients undergoing total ankle replacement, from preoperative condition to 30 days follow-up. The indexes provided by the app in terms of percentages of pain areas are compared with that obtained with traditional visual analogue scale. Moreover, the relation between the percentage of pain area and the presence of side effects of the intervention are compared as well.

The purpose of this study is to collect data about the efficacy of Permacol Paste treatment in perianal Crohn's Disease.
This is a Phase 2, open-label, randomized, 3-arm study to evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer treated with intermittent or continuous regimens of relacorilant in combination with nab-paclitaxel compared with patients treated with nab-paclitaxel alone.
In literature there is a huge amount of works demonstrating the direct correlation between volemic overload or fluid deficit and hypoperfusion and the increase in the rate of major postoperative complications in patients with high cardiovascular risk and chronic renal failure candidate to kidney transplantation from cadaver. It is also widely demonstrated that in certain populations with high surgical and post-operative complications risk, the adoption of targeted haemodynamic and clinical-therapeutic management protocols is indicated. The current trend is therefore to guarantee greater precision in the intraoperative management of patients undergoing kidney transplantation from cadaver by using a specific protocol that can be framed in the recent and innovative concept of Perioperative Gold Directed Therapy (PGDT), resulting from the adoption of an advanced minimally invasive hemodynamic monitoring technology with a special sensor called FloTrac (Edwards Lifesciences), already extensively tested in an extensive case series of high perioperative risk patients underwent to major abdominal surgery, major vascular surgery, major orthopedic surgery and cardio-thoracic surgery. In the present study there will be enrolled all patients who are candidates for kidney transplant from cadaver at the University Hospital "G. Rodolico" of Catania that meet the inclusion criteria of the study and will give their informed consent to participation. The enrolled patients will be monitored for a maximum period of 7 days from transplantation. As control group there will be considered an historical cohort of patients who underwent kidney transplantation from cadaver in 2015, in which a PGDT protocol was not used, but a common hemodynamic monitoring, based on parameters such as central venous pressure and / or invasive arterial pressure, was performed according to the international guidelines.
A short ketogenic diet (KD) treatment can prevent migraine attacks and correct excessive cortical response. Here, investigators aim to prove if the KD-related changes of cortical excitability are primarily due to cerebral cortex activity or are modulated by the brainstem. Through the stimulation of the right supraorbital division of the trigeminal nerve, there will be concurrently interictally recorded the nociceptive blink reflex (nBR) and the pain-related evoked potentials (PREP) in 18 migraineurs patients without aura before and after 1-month on KD, while in metabolic ketosis. nBR and PREP reflect distinct brain structures activation: the brainstem and the cerebral cortex respectively. It will be estimated nBR R2 component area-under-the-curve as well as PREP amplitude habituation as the slope of the linear regression between the 1st and the 2nd block of 5 averaged responses.
The purpose of the trial is to evaluate the safety, usability and performance of the V-LAP™ System in adult subjects with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III Heart Failure.
Aim of the study is to assess efficacy of a short course radiation treatment in patients with symptomatic abdominal malignant lesions
Primary Objective: The primary goal of this registry is to assess the risk of spontaneous abortion in prospective enrolled women exposed to LEMTRADA for multiple sclerosis. Secondary Objective: The secondary goals of this registry is to assess maternal, fetal and infant outcome in women with multiple sclerosis, exposed to LEMTRADA.
