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 main purpose of this open-label, dose-escalation, phase Ib study is to identify the appropriate dose of MEN1611 to be used in combination with Trastuzumab with/without Fulvestrant for the treatment of advanced or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with apalutamide plus androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) before and after radical prostatectomy (RP) with pelvic lymph node dissection (pLND) in participants with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer results in an improvement in pathological complete response (pCR) rate and metastasis-free survival (MFS) as compared to placebo plus ADT.
This is a prospective, phase II, single-centre, non-randomised, single-arm study, enrolling patients with benign and malignant bilio-pancreatic diseases with an indication to biliary or pancreatic plastic stent positioning during ERCP. On procedure day, the study team will confirm that the patient meets all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. The patient will undergo the ABS insertion and monitored and follow-up accordingly to biodegration variant.
Anemia is common in intensive care unit (ICU) patients and often appears early in the ICU course. The optimal management red blood cells RBC transfusion in critically ill patients remains controversial and clinical studies in this field have usually been based on transfusion thresholds. In the "TRICC" Trial, patients assigned to a restrictive transfusion strategy (transfusion if Hb<7 g/dL) had similar mortality to patients transfused if Hb<10 g/dL. Notably, none of the large RCT tried to focus on a personalize RBC transfusion protocol, i.e. a transfusion protocol which address the individual need for transfusion basing on physiological approach. We therefore hypothesized that patients with high extraction of oxygen could benefit more of RBCs transfusion regardless their hemoglobin levels.
The global objective of this Basket of Basket study is to evaluate the antitumor activity of each matched therapies that will be evaluated through the study in small molecularly selected populations. The objective of module 1 wil be to determine the overall response rate (ORR) at 12 weeks by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 of atezolizumab in each of the arms of the module. All patients in genomically selected populations will receive atezolizumab 1200 mg IV every 3 weeks. The objective of module 2 wil be to determine the overall response rate (ORR) at 16 weeks by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 of futibatinib in each of the arms of the module. All patients in genomically selected populations will receive will receive futibatinib, 20 mg, once daily (QD) in 28-day cycles. The objective of module 3 wil be to determine the overall response rate (ORR) at 12 weeks by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 of amivantamab in each of the arms of the module. All patients in genomically selected populations will receive amivantamab 1050 mg intravenously (IV) for body weight < 80 kg and 1400 mg for body weight >= 80 kg mg once weekly in Cycle 1 (with a split dose on Days 1-2) and then every 2 weeks in subsequent cycles (28-day cycles).
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and key electrical performance of the INVICTA leads equipped with DF4 connector: ACTIVE fixation type models (single and dual coil: INVICTA 1CR, INVICTA 2CR) and PASSIVE fixation type models (single and dual coil: INVICTA 1CT, INVICTA 2CT).
The purpose of this clinical study is to determine whether the addition of an oral Factor XIa Inhibitor to Aspirin and Clopidogrel is more effective than standard therapy in secondary stroke prevention.
Given the role of adaptive immunity in ALS, the pathogenicity of some clostridial strains on motorneurons, the putative role of cyanobacteria in ALS development, and the increasing interest for microbiota in neurodegenerative disorders, the modification of intestinal microbiota might affect ALS at its core. This interventional study aims at evaluating the biological and disease-modifying effects of Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) in patients affected by Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. As a primary aim of the study, the investigators postulate ALS patients treated with FMT compared to the control arm will display increased Tregs number, which is a favourable biomarker of disease activity and progression. Clinical outcomes as disease progression measured by ALS Functional Rating Scale Revised (ALSFRS-R) score, survival, respiratory function and quality of life will be assessed during the whole treatment and follow-up period. Moreover, biological activity of FMT will be evaluated in different biomatrices, together with FMT safety and tolerability in a cohort of ALS patients.
Repeated transfusions have been associated with very poor outcome of preterm infants. Fetal hemoglobin (HbF) and adult Hb (HbA) have different affinity for oxygen. The high level of adult Hb may contribute to exacerbating the oxidative damage responsible for prematurity diseases. The investigators hypothesized that transfusing red blood cells (RBC) obtained from allogeneic cord blood (CB) of healthy full-term babies (which contains almost exclusively HbF) may prevent the non-physiological decrease of HbF in premature neonates, likewise protecting them from oxygen radical diseases. Cord blood transfusion in preterms - CB TRIP - is a monocentric prospective nonrandomized study aimed to monitor HbF levels in preterm neonates receiving RBC transfusions from either umbilical blood of full-term healthy babies (CB-RBC) and/or from adult donors (A-RBC).
Study Information Indication* This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, open-label, monocentric study for the evaluation of two different settings of critically ill patients recovered in Internal Medicine unit (IMU) and subsequently sent to subacute managed care unit or to earlier discharge, in order to evaluate the effectiveness of a wireless monitoring of clinical conditions vs. a traditional clinical monitoring on outcomes (critical adverse events, clinical exacerbations). Phase*: 4, observational prospective Number of subjects*: GROUP A and GROUP B: N=300 patients (150 per arm)
