This study is observing how well a specific combination of cancer drugs works for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has spread. It will follow about 300 patients across 15 Italian hospitals to see how long they live and how the treatment affects their cancer progression…

This study is testing whether a medication called cenobamate can help control seizures in adults with autoimmune epilepsy, a condition where the body's immune system attacks the brain and causes seizures that are often hard to treat. Researchers will follow 30 participants for 24…

This study aims to see if a new blood test can accurately diagnose and track a serious liver disease called NASH, which is linked to obesity and type 2 diabetes. Researchers will test the blood of 828 people to see if measuring two specific markers (PLIN2 and RAB14) in white bloo…

This study compares two different nerve block techniques to manage pain after minimally invasive lung surgery. Researchers want to see which method better controls pain, reduces the need for opioid painkillers, and helps patients recover more comfortably. The trial involves 28 ad…

This study is testing a new surgical technique for patients who need their entire stomach removed due to cancer. The method creates a small pouch from intestine to help reduce common side effects like rapid food dumping and poor nutrition. Researchers want to see if this approach…

This study aims to validate a set of cognitive tests for dementia that can be administered remotely with a healthcare professional's guidance. Researchers want to see if these online assessments produce results similar to traditional in-person testing. The study involves both hea…
