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 purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of baricitinib in combination with topical corticosteroids (TCS) in participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis.
This is a long-term follow up study evaluating the safety of BPX-501 T cells (rivogenlecleucel) and infused in pediatric patients previously enrolled on the BP-004 study.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety (including evaluating side effects) of combination of olaparib and abiraterone versus placebo and abiraterone in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have received no prior cytotoxic chemotherapy or new hormonal agents (NHAs) at metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) stage.
A Global Study to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of Durvalumab in Combination with Gemcitabine+Cisplatin for Neoadjuvant Treatment and Durvalumab Alone for Adjuvant Treatment in Patients with Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer
This is a prospective two-stage single arm phase II study to be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practices. This study will enrol 53 patients, based on a two steps Simon's design. Patients will entry into the study if the following conditions will be satisfied: - BRCA1/2 germline mutations. - Metastatic disease with measurable lesions will be evaluated by computed tomography or by PET (Positron Emission Tomography) scan. - Patients must have received anthracycline and taxanes before entry into the study. Patients will be treated with Carboplatin AUC6 (Area Under The Curve) EV (endovenous) every 3 weeks in combination with Pembrolizumab 200 mg EV every 3 weeks for 6 cycles. Afterwards, the Pembrolizumab will recontinued with the same schedule until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. The primary endpoint will be Objective Responses Rate (ORR) (complete answers + partial answers) evaluated according to the RECIST criteria.
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is an effective, minimally invasive therapy that is widely used for unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRC-LM) treatment. Chemoembolization, however, induces a hypoxic micro-environment, which increases neo-angiogenesis, and may promote early progression. For this reason, efficacy may be improved by associating TACE with an angiogenesis inhibitor, such as bevacizumab. The use of FOLFIRI associate to Bevacizumab is part of clinical practice and is commonly used for the therapy of patients with CRC-LM both wild type and mutant. This case-control observational study aim to compare patients treated with TACE using Irinotecan-loaded embolics followed by systemic Bevacizumab versus patients treated with FILFIRI+ Bevacizumab
ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is mostly caused by the rupture or the erosion of a vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque, initiating with intraluminal thrombosis and resulting in total occlusion of the coronary artery. Thrombus formation is a complex and dynamic process involving flow, blood cells and several plasma proteins, and it has not been clearly elucidated. To define - through proteomic approach - the composition of occluding thrombus and its time changes in patients with STEMI, trying to identify novel biomarkers of coronary thrombosis.
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is predicted to become the fourth leading cause of disability worldwide by 2020. and is estimated to affect more than 40 million people in Europe and 4 million people in Italy. OA has multifactorial etiology and obesity is one of the most important risk factor for knee Regarding therapy of OA in 2014, the European Society for Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis (ESCEO) published a treatment algorithm for the management of knee OA. In Step 1 of the treatment, it is recommended to initiate therapy with chronic symptomatic slow-acting drugs for osteoarthritis (SYSADOAs). Among SYSADOAs, the evidence is greatest for the effect of chondroitin sulfate (CS). Sixty overweight subjects with knee osteoarthritis (OA) were recruited and randomly allocated to a group of treatment with 600 mg/d of non-animal Chondroitin sulphate (CS) or to a placebo group. These measurements were considered: Tegner Lysholm Knee Scoring (TLKS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis (WOMAC) index and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain were analyzed at time 0 and at 4 and 12 weeks. Health-related quality of life by ShortForm36, inflammation by C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) were also evaluated, together with a body composition assessment performed by DXA.
This study evaluates the effects of Nickel oral hyposensitization treatment (NiOHT) on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients suffered from Systemic Nickel Allergy Syndrome (SNAS).
The WIN Study is a prospective, interventional, multi-center, open-label premarket study designed to confirm the safety, performance and intended use of the WISE Cortical Strip (WCS) for CE certification purposes. Participants with documented diagnosis of epilepsy or brain tumor requiring intracranial surgery, who meet all eligibility criteria, will undergo IntraOperative Neurophysiological Monitoring (IONM) during a neurosurgical intervention with the WCS and a comparator device.
