This study tests a precise radiation technique called SBRT given after surgery for pancreatic cancer. The goal is to lower the chance of the cancer coming back in the same area. About 50 adults who had surgery and have high-risk features (like positive lymph nodes or close margin…

This study looks at whether a new screening method using PHI and mp-MRI can find prostate cancer earlier in men with certain gene mutations (DRG). The goal is to see if this approach works better than the current standard of DRE and PSA tests. About 320 men with prostate or bladd…

This study aims to create and validate an Italian version of the ICU Mobility Scale, a tool that measures how well patients in intensive care can move. Researchers will enroll 100 adults in Italian ICUs to test if the scale is reliable and accurate. The goal is to help doctors an…

This study looks at 266 adults with advanced rectal cancer to see if a newer treatment plan (total neoadjuvant treatment) causes fewer problems after surgery compared to standard radiotherapy. Researchers will track complications within 90 days after surgery, especially in older …

This study tracks 1000 adults with interstitial lung disease to see how often work or home exposures (like chemicals or pollution) play a role. Researchers use a standard questionnaire across multiple centers. The goal is to better understand causes, not to test a new treatment.

This study follows 250 adults with inherited forms of pulmonary fibrosis to see how their genes influence the speed of lung decline. Participants undergo regular breathing tests and genetic analysis, but no new treatments are tested. The goal is to better understand why some peop…

This study is testing whether artificial intelligence can better predict how well head and neck cancer patients will respond to radiation therapy and what side effects they might have. About 50 adults with advanced cancer will have their medical images analyzed by a computer prog…

This study watches 60 adults having open pancreatic surgery to see if low blood pressure during the operation is linked to higher lactate levels right after surgery. Lactate is a sign of how well tissues are getting oxygen. The goal is to find patterns that could help doctors man…
