Despite advances in neonatal care and improved survival rates for extremely preterm infants, the incidence of BPD remains high. BPD is associated with significant short- and long-term morbidity, including chronic respiratory impairment, pulmonary hypertension, recurrent respiratory infections, and neurodevelopmental sequelae. Current diagnosis of BPD is based on the need for respiratory support at 36 weeks postmenstrual age, limiting opportunities for early therapeutic intervention. Since structural lung injury may become irreversible within the first weeks of life, the identification of reliable early predictors of BPD is a major clinical priority. Lung ultrasound (LUS) is a non-invasive, radiation-free, bedside imaging technique increasingly used in neonatal intensive care units. The Lung Ultrasound Score (LUS) provides a quantitative assessment of lung aeration and has demonstrated utility in predicting several neonatal respiratory outcomes. Recent studies suggest that both LUS and pleural line abnormalities detected during the first weeks of life may be associated with the subsequent development of BPD, although evidence remains heterogeneous and no universally validated predictive method is currently available.",[26],"Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia",[28,29,30],"respiratory morbidity","prematurity","dysplasia","RECRUITING","2026-06-03",{"date":34,"type":35},"2026-06-08","ACTUAL",{"date":37,"type":35},"2024-11-02",{"date":39,"type":22},"2027-02",{"name":41,"class":42},"Azienda USL Reggio Emilia - IRCCS","OTHER_GOV",4,{"id":45,"slug":46,"hasResults":12,"nctId":47,"briefTitle":48,"officialTitle":49,"acronym":50,"eligibilityCriteria":51,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":18,"minAge":52,"maxAge":53,"enrollmentInfo":54,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":23,"phases":4,"briefSummary":56,"conditions":57,"keywords":59,"overallStatus":31,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":65,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":66,"startDateStruct":68,"completionDateStruct":70,"leadSponsor":72,"locationsCount":73},"100606325","new-ai-based-technologies-in-nuclear-medicine-100606325","NCT07174089","New AI-based Technologies in Nuclear Medicine","New AI-based Technologies for Even Safer and More Precise Nuclear Medicine","AI-basedMedNuc","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* patients undergoing PET\u002FCT scans or therapeutic treatments with radiopharmaceuticals labelled with alpha or beta emitting nuclides\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* patients whose clinical or psychological conditions do not allow for their involvement","18 Years","90 Years",{"count":55,"type":22},1500,"The study aims to identify and predict radiopharmaceutical extravasation events using new semi-quantitative parameters and machine learning models.

Despite significant therapeutic advancements, frontline treatment failure occurs in up to 30% of cases, with relapse or refractory disease affecting over 50% of these patients. The main therapeutic challenge in cHL remains achieving an optimal balance between disease control and reducing long-term adverse effects. Current prognostic tools only partially capture patient heterogeneity, and cHL continues to evolve spatially and temporally throughout the course of the disease. Personalized treatment strategies require novel integrated tools that better monitor tumor complexity and anticipate disease progression.\n\nFluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) has improved risk stratification in cHL, as metabolic response during or after chemotherapy strongly correlates with disease progression and survival. However, FDG-PET has limitations, including the absence of standardized criteria and the necessity to initiate treatment before response assessment. To overcome these limitations, molecular profiling and radiomic analysis of baseline FDG-PET data may provide deeper insights into tumor biology, improving prognostic accuracy.\n\nThis observational study aims to dissect the genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity of cHL at diagnosis and during disease evolution, with the goal of identifying novel prognostic biomarkers. These findings could lead to better treatment personalization, increasing cure rates while minimizing treatment-related toxicity. The study is based on the hypothesis that correlating DNA profiling at diagnosis, gene expression, and radiomic features may enable the identification of high-risk signatures, refining prognostic models in cHL. Additionally, liquid biopsy represents a non-invasive method for assessing tumor mutational complexity. The analysis of circulating DNA (cDNA) throughout disease progression could provide insights into genetic evolution and help predict overt progression before clinical manifestations occur.\n\nThe primary objective is to define the genetic mutational profile of cHL at disease progression. As secondary objectives, it will evaluate whether liquid biopsy can accurately recapitulate the genetic heterogeneity observed in tumor tissue, determine the predictive accuracy of liquid biopsy in anticipating disease progression, and correlate genomic and radiomic features with patient outcomes to refine risk stratification and therapeutic decision-making.\n\nBy integrating molecular and imaging-based biomarkers, this study aims to enhance personalized treatment strategies, improve risk-adapted therapeutic approaches, and ultimately optimize curability and quality of life for patients with cHL.",[85,86,87],"Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma","Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma Recurrent","Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma Refractory",[89,90],"Liquid Biopsy","classical Hodgkin Lymphoma",{"date":67,"type":35},{"date":93,"type":35},"2022-06-23",{"date":95,"type":22},"2026-12",{"name":41,"class":42},12,{"id":99,"slug":100,"hasResults":12,"nctId":101,"briefTitle":102,"officialTitle":103,"acronym":104,"eligibilityCriteria":105,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":18,"minAge":52,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":106,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":107,"phases":108,"briefSummary":110,"conditions":111,"keywords":116,"overallStatus":124,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":125,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":126,"startDateStruct":128,"completionDateStruct":130,"leadSponsor":132,"locationsCount":73},"100639616","hematocare-feasibility-of-a-survivorship-care-plan-for-hematologic-cancer-patients-undergoing-hsct-100639616","NCT07579065","HematoCare: Feasibility of a Survivorship Care Plan for Hematologic Cancer Patients Undergoing HSCT","Survivorship Care in Patients With Hematologic Cancer Undergoing HSCT: A Feasibility Study on Quality of Life, Unmet Needs, and Caregivers Burden","HematoCare","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients with hematologic cancer candidates for HSCT (autologous or allogeneic) and their informal caregivers\n* Able to provide informed consent\n* Able to communicate in Italian\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients or caregivers with comorbidities hindering participation (e.g., significant cognitive limitations)",{"count":21,"type":22},"INTERVENTIONAL",[109],"NA","This is a feasibility study to implement a Survivorship Care (SC) Plan for patients with hematologic cancer undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).

While effective and safe, EMR often necessitates piecemeal resection, increasing the risk of local recurrence. In contrast, ESD, developed in Asia, allows for en bloc resection regardless of lesion size, ensuring more accurate histopathological assessment and lower recurrence rates. However, ESD requires greater technical expertise, has longer procedural times, and carries a higher risk of complications.\n\nIn Western clinical practice, EMR remains the standard treatment, whereas ESD is selectively performed in high-expertise centers.

The advent of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) has revolutionized the management of CML, trasforming it from a fatal disease to a chronic condition with excellent long-term outcomes for the majority of patients. The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) based treatment for CML has revolutionized the management of this previously fatal disease, achieving sustained disease-control in more than 90% of patients.\n\nHowever, as patients with CML are often required to undergo lifelong TKI therapy to maintain disease control, concerns regarding the long-term safety and tolerability of these agents have emerged.\n\nThe efficacy of second and third-generation TKIs exceeds the efficacy of imatinib, owing to their potent impact on wild-type BCR-ABL1 and various BCR-ABL1 mutants, along with additional drug targets. Furthermore, TKIs exhibit activity on non-kinase targets (es. oxidoreductase NQO2 for nilotinib and imatinib).\n\nThe prolonged treatment duration and expanded TKIs repertoire have led the emergence of various unexpected non-hematologic adverse events (AE), notably vascular adverse events (VAEs).\n\nRecent evidence indicates a relatively high incidence of severe arterial changes in TKI-treated patients, with VAEs frequency correlating with TKI dosage and treatment duration. However, data elucidating the clinical features of vascular events are lacking.\n\nHormonal alterations have been reported in patients treated with imatinib. The tyrosine-kinase receptors cKIT and PDGF receptors, along with their respective ligands, are expressed in the testis, where they play a role in stimulating testosterone secretion by Leydig cells. Prolonged imatinib use has been associated with reduced testosterone production due to PDGFR and cKit blockade in the testis, potentially leading to gynaecomastia in men.\n\nCardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality in the United States, accounting for nearly 40% of all deaths. CVD and ED share a variety of common risk factors, including hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, smoking, obesity, physical inactivity, and metabolic syndrome. Screening and diagnosing ED hold significant potential for secondary prevention of CVD. Despite the estabilished association between ED and CVD, the precise mechanisms driving ED's predictive value for CVD are yet to be fully identified. Early deection and treatment of CVD during the critical time frame in which risk factors can be modified will effectively reduce the occurrence of fatal CV events in male patients with ED.\n\nThis is a multicentre national, retrospective, prospective, non-interventional study that focuses on male CML patients starting first-line treatment with TKIs between 1 January 2015 and 31 January 2022.\n\nAll enrolled patients will be involved in both retrospective and prospective evaluations.\n\nThe retrospective component of the study allows the collection of data on the onset of ED, documented in medical records, that occurred before enrolment. It also includes information from physical examinations and laboratory tests, such as complete blood count, serum biochemistry (including renal and liver function tests, lipid profile and glycosylated haemoglobin), molecular biology for BCR-ABL transcript levels and electrocardiography (ECG), collected retrospectively every six months from enrolment until the documented onset of ED.
