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 study is to test the effect of an experimental medication GED-0301(mongersen) and evaluate its safety in patients (≥ 12 years of age) with active Crohn's disease. The study will test GED-0301 compare to placebo for 12 weeks. The study treatment is blinded which means that patients and the study doctor will not know which treatment has been assigned. Patients in this study will be allowed treatment with stable doses of oral aminosalicylates, oral corticosteroids, immunosupressants and antibiotics for the treatment of Crohn's disease. Adolescent patients will also be allowed treatment with stable doses of exclusive enteral nutrition and growth hormone. All patients who complete the study will have the option to enter a long term active treatment study.
This is a single-arm, multi-center, open-label, Phase 2 study to determine the efficacy and safety of JCAR015 in adult subjects with B-cell ALL. The study is divided into two sequential parts, Part A and Part B; subjects will be screened and will provide informed consent before initiating any study procedures in Part A of the study.
Cervical insufficiency, previously referred to as cervical incompetence, has classically been defined as painless dilation of the cervix in the absence of contractions or bleeding in the second trimester resulting in recurrent pregnancy losses. Painless mid-trimester cervical dilation is an uncommon finding in the general population occurring in less than 1% of pregnancies. Cerclage for the prevention pregnancy loss in cases with both prior preterm births and/or second trimester losses, as well as second trimester cervical dilatation in the index pregnancy, was first reported in the 1950's. Cerclage placement in this setting has been variably referred to as "physical exam-indicated cerclage", "rescue cerclage", and "emergency cerclage". To date, the benefits of cerclage for this indication are not entirely clear. A recent meta-analysis showed that physical exam-indicated cerclage is associated with a reduction in perinatal mortality and prolongation of pregnancy when compared to no such cerclage. Recently, several RCTs have shown that cervical pessary could decrease the incidence of PTB in several populations. Thus, the aim of our trial as noninferiority trial is to evaluate the efficacy of pessary compared to cervical cerclage in prevention of PTB in women in the setting of mid-trimester cervical dilation
The trial is to describe quality of life in patients affected by prostate cancer treated with exclusive radiotherapy and submitted to psychological and andrologic evaluation.
Homonymous hemianopia is one of the most common symptoms following a neurologic damage and has many negative effects on functional abilities and daily activities. There are two main kind of restorative rehabilitation of hemianopia: "border training", which involves exercising vision at the edge of the damaged visual field, and "blindsight training", which is based on exercising the unconscious perceptual functions in the mild of the blind hemifield. In literature only border training effects were shown to be facilitated by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). The investigators treat two patients with blindsight rehabilitation associated to tDCS over parieto-occipital cortex. The two patients undergo a cycle of blindsight treatment associated to tDCS and a cycle of blindsight training alone in inverted order. Aim of the study is to investigate if the anodic stimulation of perilesional areas enhance the improvement induced by blindsight rehabilitation treatment.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of gemcitabine-carboplatin plus necitumumab in chemotherapy-naïve participants with locally advanced or metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer.
Preterm birth (PTB) is a major cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Worldwide, about 15 million babies are born too soon every year, causing 1.1 million deaths, as well as short- and long-term disability in countless survivors. Few prognostic tests are available to predict PTB. A short transvaginal ultrasound cervical length (TVU CL) has been shown to be a good predictor of PTB.Different strategies have been adopted for prevention of PTB. The evidence supports the use of vaginal progesterone in singleton pregnancies with short cervix, while cervical cerclage seems to be beneficial only in the subgroup of singleton gestations with both prior spontaneous PTB and TVU CL ≤25mm, and not in singletons without prior PTB, nor in multiple gestations. However, so far there are no level-1 data on the efficacy of TVU CL screening neither in low risk nor in high risk pregnancy Thus, we aim to assess the efficacy of a policy of TVU CL screening in singleton pregnancy without prior spontaneous PTB
Patients with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD) will be enrolled to receive multiple doses of ARC-AAT Injection. All subjects will require a pre-dose biopsy and a biopsy post last dose.
This study evaluates the non-inferiority of a protocol of limited evaluation (complete blood count, blood culture) and clinical observation by standardized physical examination versus the algorithm suggested in the CDC's 2010 guidelines (limited evaluation, clinical observation and antibiotic therapy) in the management of asymptomatic infants born at term to mothers with suspected chorioamnionitis. The primary outcome of the study is the difference in the prevalence of sepsis-related symptoms between the two groups.
Prospective, international, non-randomized, multicentre, clinical investigation (phase IV). The aim of the study is to investigate the correlation between HF, severe SBD, and AF in CRT-P patients at 6 months.
