There are about 36633 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in France. 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.
PPV-06 immunotherapy targets interleukin-6 (IL-6), a key molecule of the immune system whose overproduction is implicated in many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. The benefit of vaccination with PPV-06 is to induce, in response to immunizations, the production of antibodies directed against IL-6. The antibodies produced will neutralize the biological activity of IL-6 involved in the body's inflammatory process. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety/tolerability of vaccination with PPV-06.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the antitumor activity and safety of Lenvatinib (MK-7902/E7080) in children, adolescents, and young adults with relapsed or refractory solid malignancies after administration. Participants will be enrolled into initial tumor-specific cohorts which will be expanded based on observed response.
The purpose of the study is to use a simple photography of conjunctival vessels to search for an association between conjunctival vessels abnormalities and the load of small vessel disease as quantified by MRI in patients with TIA s and minor strokes. The artificial intelligence (AI) tools will permit to classify abnormalities of conjunctival vessels that predict the load of small vessel disease in TIAs and strokes.
Patients with early-stage squamous cell carcinomas of the vocal cord can be treated in an equivalent way in terms of carcinology by surgery or radiotherapy. The study will be to analyse the vocal outcome at 5 years of these two types of management in order to define whether one is superior to the other on this criterion of voice quality after treatment.
Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a neuro-respiratory disease characterized by lifethreatening sleep-related hypoventilation involving an alteration of CO2/H+ chemosensitivity. This suggests cortical activity during awakening to maintain breathing. Cortical activity to keep breathing is usually associated with breathing discomfort ; this is the case in healthy subjects under non invasive ventilation (NIV) or with expiratory charge as well as in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. This can suggest that CCHS may be breathless at rest and this discomfort could be reduced by NIV. The objective is to evaluate dyspnea with a multi dimensional score, MDP, in CCHS patient at rest in every day life and during 1H session of NIV. The investigators will perform a prospective, including 20 CCHS patients. MDP scores will be measure before and after 1H-non invasive ventilation as well as a visual scale of 100mm in order to evaluate variation of breathing discomfort before/after NIV. The investigators expect that CCHS patients don't have rest dyspnea but NIV would improve breathing discomfort that would mean they have latent rest dyspnea.
This is a randomized, positive-controlled, open-label, international multicenter, Phase 3 clinical study to compare the efficacy and safety of pyrotinib versus docetaxel in patients with advanced non-squamous NSCLC harboring a HER2 exon 20 mutation who failed platinum based chemotherapy.
This study is to improve the first-line induction chemotherapy, by combining either Ibrutinib, or Lenalidomide, to a conventional immuno- chemotherapy of R-MPV type (Rituximab-Methotrexate-Procarbazine-Vincristine). This is a randomized Phase II trial, preceded by a dose escalation phase Ib. The objective of the phase Ib is to rule out any limiting toxicity of the new treatment associations, and to determine the recommended dose of Lenalidomide and Ibrutinib to be used in the phase II. In the phase II study, patients will receive 4 cycles of R-MPV + Lenalidomide or 4 cycles of R-MPV + Ibrutinib. The therapeutic response will be evaluated after the 2nd and the 4th cycle. Patients in good therapeutic response will proceed to the consolidation phase with Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation (ASCT).
The Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery department of Montpellier was born out of the Wound and Healing department, the first unit of this type to be created in Europe. The investigators quickly became the national leader in the management of pressure ulcers, especially in people with spinal cord injuries. Our expertise has evolved over time as well as our surgical techniques for covering ulcers, gradually over time the investigators have gone from " random " flaps to " propeller " flaps, more reliable in terms of vascularization and more logical in terms of force distribution and skin tension. The investigators found subjectively that the rate of complications was lower for the helical flaps. The investigators therefore seek to confirm this trend through a retrospective study on patients operated on in the department between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2019.
Chronic hepatic disease, and especially cirrhosis, are associated to a global dysfunction of the immune system. Liver transplantation represents the only replacement therapy for end-stage liver disease and a curative means of localized hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) but required immunosuppressive treatment to limit the risk of rejection. Candidates for liver transplantation are at an increased risk for severe infections, some of which can be prevented by vaccination. With regard to vaccine preventable diseases, these patients share the same pitfalls than all immunocompromised individuals: i) a theoretical or proven increased incidence and severity of certain infections warranting specific vaccine recommendations; ii) a decrease in immunogenicity of vaccine; iii) a risk of developing vaccine disease after administration of live attenuated vaccines. It is therefore recommended for all patients awaiting liver transplantation: i) updating the vaccinations recommended in general population (DTPw, MMR); ii) vaccination against viral hepatitis A and B to limit the risk of severe hepatitis; iii) vaccination against pneumococcal infection, influenza and chickenpox more common and more serious in this population. However, these recommendations are based on theoretical assessments and experts opinions; i) immunogenicity of vaccination in cirrhotic patients and persistence of post-transplant protection had been poorly assessed as well as their determinants; ii) there are only a few data regarding the tolerance of vaccinations in this population; iii) vaccination coverage of patients with end-stage liver disease is poorly known in France and; iv) the perception and acceptability of vaccinations have not been evaluated in this population. Investigators hypothesis is that: the vaccination schedule currently recommended for liver transplantation does not provide adequate protection against vaccine targets 6 months after liver transplantation.
Literature is contradictory about the impact of mediolateral episiotomy during operative vaginal delivery in obstetric anal sphincter injuries prevention explaining the absence of international guidelines. The investigators consider that a randomized trials does not appears feasible for both ethical and practical reason and so we suggest a large national observational study. The investigators will include all nulliparous women that underwent an operative vaginal delivery within the 72h following the delivery at more than 34 weeks of amenorrhea. The investigators will collect data about the history of pregnancy, the course of labor, the mode of delivery, maternal immediate and one-year morbidity, neonatal immediate morbidity. The investigators expect a one-year study in 129 recruiting center with 15000 included women. The primary objective is to assess the protective effect of mediolateral episiotomy against obstetric anal sphincter injury during instrumental delivery in nulliparous women according to the type of instrument used. The secondary endpoints are to investigate the effect of mediolateral episiotomy on one-year maternal morbidity, immediate maternal morbidity. The investigators also aim to develop a clinical score to assess the absolute risk of obstetric anal sphincter injury during instrumental delivery. Finally, the investigators will investigate the impact of fetal presentation ultrasound assessment immediately before instrumental delivery on the mode of delivery.
