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.
Pathogenic variants in subcortical maternal complex (SCMC) have been identified not only in mothers of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) babies but also in women with reproductive disturbances such as failed pregnancy attempts and recurrent pregnancy loss. Based on the higher incidence of BWS in children born from Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), this project aims to investigate incidence and molecular mechanism of pathogenic variants of SCMC in women with reproductive disorders. Study objectives will be (i) assess the incidence of these variants as a cause of differences in reproductive outcomes in the infertile female population and mothers of children with BWS; (ii) identify methylation changes in women with reproductive problems including those with offspring affected by BWS; (iii) determine the molecular causes underlying female infertility and imprinting disorder associated with damaging SCMC gene variants by employing a mouse model.
To evaluate choroidal and choriocapillaris changes in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy, undergone sub threshold micropulse laser treatment, following any improvement with conservative therapy with Acetazolamide and/or Eplerenone
The purpose of this study is to measure the efficacy and safety of AZD0901 compared to Investigator's choice of therapy as 2L+ treatment for participants with advanced or metastatic gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma expressing CLDN18.2.
The aim of this study is to develop, study and validate a rigorous and sustainable method for assessing the clinical appropriateness of the decision taken in the Emergency Department to admit or not to admit patients.

Prospective observational clinical, molecular, translational and basic study aimed at identifying the main determinants and predictive factors of risk of bone damage in acromegaly patients
Conducted at a single-center, this prospective-retrospective study focused on all couples who initiated their journey at the Fertility Center of Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano (Milan), Italy. The prospective study focused on the couples whose first consultation occurred in 2021. A tailored questionnaire was administered via telephone by staff members to gather insights into the personal reasons for treatment discontinuation among non-returning patients. Conversely, the retrospective study included all infertile couples initiating treatment between January 2012 and December 2021 at the Fertility Center. Data encompassing personal history and demographic details were extracted from the internal database of Humanitas Fertility Center to assess the factors involved in a treatment discontinuation.
The overall aim of the study is to improve understanding of refeeding syndrome (RFS) in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) using metabolomics. Patients are included as part of a prospective multicenter observational study on phosphate disorders in the ICU. Blood samples are collected day 1-7 of ICU stay. Samples from patients who develop refeeding hypophosphatemia and matched controls without hypophosphatemia are analysed for metabolomics and proteomics. Untargeted analyses will be performed to identify the affected metabolic pathways. The investigators will also perform AUROC analyses to identify potential biomarkers for early detection of RFS.
The aim of the TAILOR-EUS study (Iconographic Registry of Bilio-Pancreatic Endoscopic Ultrasound Procedures) is to establish a clinical registry comprising images and videos generated during endoscopic procedures conducted for the investigation of pancreatic diseases (PD). The study will compile historical, pathological, and imaging data from approximately 12,000 patients (2,000 retrospectively and 10,000 prospectively) who underwent endoscopic ultrasound procedures for inflammatory pancreatic conditions (e.g., acute, recurrent, chronic pancreatitis), autoimmune bilio-pancreatic diseases (e.g., autoimmune pancreatitis), neoplastic bilio-pancreatic conditions, and screenings for individuals at high risk of developing such diseases at the Bilio-Pancreatic Endoscopy and Endoscopic Ultrasound Unit of the IRCCS San Raffaele Hospital between 2000 and 2027. Participants have undergone or will undergo the standard diagnostic pathway appropriate for their conditions as part of routine clinical practice. All instrumental examinations and endoscopic ultrasound procedures are integral to the standard diagnostic and therapeutic approach for pancreatic diseases.
A Not for Profit Phase II Study to Evaluate Safety, Efficacy and Biomarkers secondary endpoints of Human Neural Stem cell intracerebroventricular transplantation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients: a randomized, placebo controlled, triple blind study. This is an approximate 24-months study (PHASE B) consisting, per patient, of a 30-day screening period, 12-month enrollment and follow up period. A preliminary 3+3 dose-escalation open-label phase (PHASE A) will be performed in order to test the toxicity of the two proposed cell doses. The study will be stopped when all the subjects included in the treatment period complete the study visits. The study uses an ATMP, for that reason all the patients follow up will be prosecuted long life.
