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.
Intubation manoeuvres in patients undergoing thyroid surgery might be challenging for anesthesiologist. Thyroid gland enlargement (goiter) or tissue fibrosis (neoplasms) could alter the physiologic anatomy of upper airways and trachea, resulting in compression or dislocation. We want to evaluate the incidence and identify predictive parameters of difficult intubation in patients undergoing thyroid surgery.
To evaluate efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic profile of asciminib 40mg+imatinib or asciminib 60mg+imatinib versus continued imatinib and versus nilotinib versus asciminib 80mg in pre-treated patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP)
The purpose of this study is to describe the effectiveness of Darunavir/ Cobicistat/ Emtricitabine/ Tenofovir Alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF), measured as virological response at Week 48 as per Food and Drug Administration (FDA) snapshot algorithm through collection of daily practice data in the Italian setting.
In this study 45 patients undergoing weekly dialysis for chronic end stage renal disease will be enrolled. The patients will be treated with a standard dialysis solution, containing acetate buffer, for 3 months; subsequently the acetate will be substituted with citrate anion for the 3 following months and then, the last 3 months, the standard acetate-solution will be restarted. The aim of the study is to assess if acetate-to-citrate switch in the dialysis solution influences dialysis efficiency and patient inflammatory state.
Subjects undergoing cancer related surgery at the Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori - Milano will be consecutively recruited. Data regarding presence of co-morbidities, frailty, cancer staging, and inflammatory status (CRP protein measurement) will be collected preoperatively. Intra-operative data collection will comprehend type and duration of surgery, kind of anesthesia, complications. In-hospital mortality will be considered as the primary endpoint, while secondary outcome measures will be duration of hospital stay and admission to intensive care.
The study will be conducted in compliance with the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use/Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and applicable regulatory requirements. This is a randomized, open-label, parallel-group, multi-center trial in adult subjects with Relapsed or refractory (R/R) aggressive Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) to compare safety and efficacy between the standard of care (SOC) strategy versus JCAR017 (also known as lisocabtagene maraleucel or liso-cel). Subjects will be randomized to either receive SOC (Arm A) or to receive JCAR017 (Arm B). All subjects randomized to Arm A will receive Standard of care (SOC) salvage therapy (R-DHAP, RICE or R-GDP) as per physician's choice before proceeding to High dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Subjects from Arm A may be allowed to cross over and receive JCAR017 upon confirmation of an EFS event. Subjects randomized to Arm B will receive Lymphodepleting (LD) chemotherapy followed by JCAR017 infusion.
The researchers are doing the study to see if semaglutide may reduce the risk of having cardiovascular events in patients with overweight or obesity and with prior cardiovascular disease. The participant will either get semaglutide (active medicine) or placebo ("dummy" medicine). Which treatment the participants get is decided by chance. The participant's chance of getting semaglutide or placebo is the same. The participant will get the study medicine in a pen. The participants will need to use the pen to inject the study medicine in a skinfold once a week. The study will last for about 2.5 to 5 years. Participants will have up to 25 clinic visits with the study doctor.
Open Label Extension Study of Voxelotor Clinical Trial Participants with Sickle Cell Disease Who Participated in Voxelotor Clinical Trials
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of BG00011 compared with placebo in participants with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). The secondary objectives of this study are: to evaluate the efficacy of BG00011 compared with placebo in participants with IPF as determined by change in percent predicted forced (expiratory) vital capacity (FVC); to assess progression-free survival in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; to assess the occurrence of IPF exacerbation in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; to assess the incidence of absolute decline in FVC ≥10% in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; to assess the time to death or lung transplantation in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo, and the transplant-free survival rate at Week 26 and Week 52; to assess the time to non-elective hospitalizations in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; to assess additional pulmonary function test (PFT) findings in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; To assess performance on the 6 minute walk test (6MWT) in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BG00011; and to evaluate the serum concentration of BG00011.
Background: the decision-making process of patients with angiographically-intermediate coronary lesions (ICL) is clinically challenging and may benefit from adjunctive invasive techniques. Fractional-flow-reserve (FFR) represents the gold standard to evaluate ICL but optical-coherence-tomography (OCT) is a novel, promising, high resolution coronary imaging technique. Objectives: 1. Investigate the relation between OCT and FFR parameters in ICL and understand if OCT measures may predict FFR. 2. Understand if OCT parameters may predict clinical outcome of patients with ICL not underwent revascularization on the bases of negative FFR. Study design: multicentre, international, individual patient's level data pooled analysis.
