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 aim of the study is to test the effect of polydextrose on whole gut transit time and gastrointestinal symptoms in a dose-responsive manner.
The primary objective of this extension study (GS-US-312-0117) that is a companion study to Study GS-US-312-0116 (NCT01539512), is to evaluate the effect of idelalisib on the onset, magnitude, and duration of tumor control. Randomization was done in study GS-US-312-0116, and carried forward to study GS-US-312-117.
The aim of the trial is to test safety, tolerability and efficacy of Propionyl-L-carnitine modified release tablets 1g/die in reducing the symptoms of the disease with respect to the proportion of patients with disease remission at the end of the 8 weeks of treatment. It will also aim to investigate capability of the treatment in the maintenance of remission after four weeks of treatment interruption; histological changes will be also evaluated and finally, improvement in the overall quality of life as measured by the Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ)will be investigated.
This is a multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, active treatment, parallel group induction study in subjects with moderately-to-severely active Crohn's disease. Subjects will receive one of two doses (500 milligrams once daily, 500 milligrams twice daily) of GSK1605786A for 12 weeks. The primary objective of the study is to induce clinical response (Crohn's Disease Activity Index [CDAI] decrease from baseline of at least 100 points) and/or remission (CDAI score less than 150) with GSK1605786A at Week 12 in subjects with active Crohn's disease to qualify subjects for enrolment into a 52 week maintenance study (CCX114157). Secondary objectives will include assessment of the safety and evaluation of the efficacy in induction of clinical response or remission. Safety will be assessed by recording of adverse events and assessment of changes in clinical laboratory parameters, vital signs and electrocardiogram. Population pharmacokinetics will evaluate the two doses of GSK1605786A. Health outcomes assessments will include changes in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire, SF-36, EQ-5D, and Work Productivity and Activity Impairment-Crohn's Disease.
The main objective of this randomized multicenter clinical trial is to test the hypothesis that further reduction of VT to 4mL/kg may enhance lung protection in patients with ARDS as compared to the conventional "ARDS-Net" ventilation. Control of PaCO2 in the ~4 ml/kg arm would be accomplished by LFPPV- ECCO2-R.
There is growing but limited information on the long term clinical status of aHUS patients who have previously received or are continuing to receive treatment with eculizumab. This study is designed to collect clinical data that will provide insight into the long-term outcomes of patients with aHUS.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related liver disease is the most common indication for liver transplantation (LT). However, LT does not cure the infection, and therapeutic strategies resulted in very limited efficacy and tolerability in LT recipients. In view of its postulated safety profile, Silibinin seems an ideal drug to be used in the setting of HCV recurrent patients after liver transplantation.
In a proportion of patients with AL amyloidosis there is no improvement of cardiac function despite hematologic response to treatment. The aim of the study is to assess whether treatment with EGCG increases the rate of cardiac response in patients with AL amyloidosis who completed chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Zevalin compared with observation alone in participants who are in PET-negative complete remission after first-line R-CHOP or R-CHOP like therapy.
Analysis of blood, urinary, and intrathecal metabolites of critical ill patients will be checked for possible correlations between metabolomics patterns and patients' outcomes.
