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 is a monocentric, prospective, single arm, not for profit study. It is designed to study the early use of ivabradine in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and Ejection Fraction (EF) < 45%.
This double-blind, cross-over, randomized, controlled trial (RCT) has the aim of evaluating the effectiveness of a metabolic support therapy in two cohorts of patients with idiopathic Autism Spectrum Disorder or Phelan-McDermid syndrome, commonly associated with syndromic autism. Each patient will receive Q10 ubiquinol + Vit. E and B for 4 months and only Vit. E and B for 4 months in a double-blind, cross-over design. Primary outcome measures of efficacy include Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Childhood Autism Rating Scale, Clinical Global Impression-Improvement and Visual Analog Scales; secondary outcome measures include several questionnaires and tests of autism, cognitive function, problem behaviors, quality of life, communication and comorbid disorders, as well as measures of oxidative stress.
Aim of the study is to test INNOGRAFT Heart Suite in a clinical setting, using a previously collected set of plasma samples from patients who underwent heart transplant and routinely or symptoms-based surveillance during the period 2016- 2019.
This is a multi-site, open- label rollover study to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of CTX001 in pediatric and adult participants who received CTX001 in parent studies 111 (NCT03655678) 141 (NCT05356195) or 161 (NCT05477563) (transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia [TDT] studies) or Study 121 (NCT03745287) or 151 (NCT05329649), 161(NCT05477563),171 (NCT05951205) (severe sickle cell disease [SCD] studies).
The primary objective of this study is: • To evaluate the long-term safety of fostamatinib in subjects with warm antibody autoimmune hemolytic anemia (wAIHA).
Fibromyalgia or Fibromyalgic Sindrome (FMS) is a chronic debilitating pain syndrome, characterized by widespread chronic musculoskeletal pain and generalized painful hypersensitivity, which may be associated with systemic, cognitive and psycho-emotional somatic disorders. Etiology is not completely known. The diagnosis of fibromyalgia is anamnestic and clinical, without evident alterations at the objective examination or at laboratory and radiology investigations. According last guidelines, the best approach to treat FMS must be personalized and multidisciplinary, including pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions. Moreover, a correct treatment of comorbidities, practice of bland physical activity or meditative discipline, as well as a pychological support are very important in FMS. The aim of this study is to evaluate the activity of some common therapeutic pathways available for FMS: acupuncture and nutraceutical products; the latter are numerous on the market and based on powerful antioxidants. In this case Migratens was chosen for its composition: α-lipoic acid, polyvitaminic complexes (B and D group vitamins), coenzyme Q10, magnesium and tryptophan.
The study intends to measure the evolution over time of the cognitive capacity of patients undergoing cataract surgery in relation to the opaque lens removal surgery (cataract) in a population considered to be at risk of neurocognitive degeneration. Secondary objectives: • Estimate the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunctions and any episodes of perioperative delirium with the aim of demonstrating the safety of cataract surgery in the elderly patient in terms of cognitive functions and impact on the psychological state. In the context of the study a risk sub-population analysis will be carried out, evaluating the trend over time of the "endothelial cells count" parameter The elderly population remains, due to the aging of the cornea, a population "at risk" for significant alterations from the clinical point of view. During the study the endothelial cells count will be monitored, in order to be able to evaluate the safety of the cataract surgery and to be able to correctly correlate a possible deterioration in the visual acuity of patients with corneal decompensation. To evaluate the progress of the endothelial cells count in the elderly patient during the pre-intervention and post-intervention period. Since the low values of cellular media in endothelial microscopy are an element that increases the risk of complications during cataract surgery, the study wants to assess how waiting times between filter visits and cataract surgery can cause an elderly patient worsening of this parameter even in a few months. The trend of the same parameter will be monitored even after the intervention since in case of decrease, the low endothelial count could cause an alteration of visual acuity and therefore a minor improvement in cognitive performance. The research will be set as a longitudinal observational study where will be compared in each patient the parameters analyzed in the 6 months prior to cataract surgery and in the 3 months following the operation itself. Patients will be enrolled during the first cataract filter visit, will be submitted to simple questions and their clinical data will be collected. Subsequently, before and after three months of surgery repeated cognitive testing and the control normally performed instrumental tests during follow-up. A clinical follow-up will be provided, during normal follow-up visits at 20 days and 6 months after the patient's surgery: the following information will be collected during these visits - BCVA (visual acuity) - endothelial cells microscopy - OCT macula and optic nerve - Catquest 9SF; - Barthel Index; - Six Item Cognitive Test - Confusion Assessment Method (CAM): this exam will be performed within 24 hours of post-surgery and 20 days after surgery. It is important to underline that the cognitive tests proposed to patients consist of simple questions that do not depend on the visual ability of the subject.
The proposed study is designed to provide patients previously enrolled in Phase 1 and 2 studies of DCR-PHXC and their siblings (<18 years old) long-term access to DCR-PHXC, and to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of DCR-PHXC in patients with PH.
The study aims to identify risk factors for the development of Celiac Diseases in families with a recognized genetic risk for the presence of a confirmed proband case. Candidate mother will be recruited before a planned pregnancy or within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Familial and environmental risk factors will be evaluated within the couple of parents. Pregnancy will be followed up and appropriate biological samples collected. Delivery will be supervised in order to collect biological samples. Newborns will be controlled from birth up to the 6th year of age. Data about clinical events related to health, life attitudes, nutrition will be collected together with biological samples either in the pregnant mother as well as in the infant.
ISACS ARCHIVES network is part of ISACS TC (NCT01218776) health care program. It is a collaborative network of research centers that support the rapid development of new scientific information and analytic tools. The ISACS ARCHIVES network assists health care providers, scientists, and policymakers seeking unbiased information about the outcomes, clinical effectiveness, safety, and appropriateness of health care items and services, particularly prescription medications and medical devices in acute coronary syndromes (ACS).
