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.
The significant consumption of Benzodiazepines and related drugs in the elderly outside of good practice recommendations is a major issue in the care of the elderly. Adverse effects have been the subject of numerous studies, leading to falls, addictions and even deaths. The general practitioner is often faced with long-term medication intake which is not consistent with a good benefit/risk balance, but stopping or reducing the dosage remains a problem in current practice. The Aftercare and Geriatric Rehabilitation services due to their operation (several weeks of hospitalization) seek to adapt the patient's therapies in order to obtain the most convincing benefit/risk balance possible. A reduction or withdrawal of treatments with Benzodiazepines or related drugs are therefore frequently initiated.
People aged over 75 represent almost 10% of the general population, and 12 to 14% of patients consulting emergency departments. Cardiogenic acute pulmonary edema (APO) is a very common reason for admission to the emergency room. The effectiveness of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has been demonstrated during the management of PAO and would allow, compared to medical treatment alone, a more rapid improvement in clinical and gasometric parameters as well as a reduction in the need for ventilation. orotracheal intubation. On the other hand, the impact of NIV on mortality in cardiogenic PAO seems poorly defined, with lower levels of scientific evidence regarding a possible benefit in terms of survival, particularly in the elderly population. The objective of this study is to determine whether the use of NIV in cardiogenic PAO in elderly subjects admitted to the emergency room of Strasbourg University Hospital would have an impact in terms of mortality up to 6 months compared to medical treatment alone.
HIV infection requires lifelong continuous antiretroviral (ARV) treatment. The efficacy of current ARV treatments makes it possible to propose strategies for reducing the cumulative exposure to ARVs, side effects and costs. And so improve the quality of life of people living with HIV (PLHIV). However, in the real world, less regular adherence to treatment, more heavily pre-treated patients and resistance to treatment make these dual therapies prescribed beyond the strict framework of clinical trials. This can lead to undesirable side effects. From the perspective of personalized medicine, it seems to be important to determine which patients are receiving dual ARV therapy, and which patients remain on it for a long time. Identifying prognostic factors would enable us to adapt therapeutic management.
The present clinical investigation - EarlyExo, is an interventional, international, multicentric, prospective, single-blinded randomized controlled trial. This clinical investigation is designed to test the hypothesis that early and intense introduction of walking sessions assisted by the Atalante exoskeleton, in a sample of hemiparetic patients with still non or poor ambulatory capacities (FAC 0 or 1) between one- and four-months post stroke, would result in a better recovery of functional walking compared to a control group only receiving conventional therapy. Improved recovery will be measured through the proportion of patients reaching a FAC score of 4 or higher at the end of the intervention period. The tested hypothesis is that this proportion will be higher in the Exo group. The duration of the intervention period in both groups is 6 weeks. - For the Exo group: 3 sessions per week (i.e., 18 one-hour sessions) with the Atalante device and 2 sessions per week (i.e., 12 one-hour sessions) of conventional therapy. - For the Control group: 5 sessions per week of conventional therapy (i.e., 30 one-hour sessions). The study will include 66 patients (33 in each arm) and takes place in two French centers, two German centers and one Spanish center.
This is a Phase I/II, modular, open-label, multicenter, dose escalation, and dose expansion/optimization study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy of AZD0305 in participants with RRMM.
The aim of the study is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of dienogest on the number of mature oocytes collected compared with "conventional" ovarian stimulation protocols (using a GnRH agonist or antagonist), in patients with endometriosis in a fertility preservation context.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of subcutaneous satralizumab, a recombinant, humanized anti-interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor monoclonal antibody, in participants with thyroid eye disease (TED).
The main aim of this study is to evaluate the contribution of fast-ripples (FR) information on the neurosurgery management of patients with drug-refractory epilepsy investigated by Stereo-ElectroEncephaloGraphy (SEEG), as measured by freedom from disabling seizures one-year post-surgery. 220 patients (for whom 4-6 usual clinical macro-electrodes will be replaced by hybrid micro-macro electrodes and for whom fast-ripples will be assessed) distributed over 5 centres and 220 control patients(who will undergo an SEEG with the usual electrodes and for whom fast-ripples will not be assessed) distributed over 6 centres. This is a controlled, non-randomized, parallel plan, prospective, multicentre exploratory study.
Memories are more robust when they are multitraced. This means that the more a piece of information is mediated by different sensory inputs, the more resistant it is to being forgotten. Many works in the field of embodied cognition show that new learnings are better recalled over the long term when they are learned during body mobilization. Other works show that musical stimulation could be a good way of eliciting physiological and emotional states more favorable to the memorization of new contents. However, to date, no studies have examined the positive effects of these two tools combined in Alzheimer's disease. The investigators suggest that it is possible to optimize memory in Alzheimer's disease by referring to their motor and emotional resources. The hypothesis is that information will be better recalled with multimodal enriched learning.
High-flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNO) is an oxygenation technique frequently used in intensive care. The main objective of our study is to show that the use of a protocol for weaning patients off high-flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNO) in the intensive care unit increases the probability that patients will be weaned from HFNO at Day 7 post-randomisation. This is a open-label multicentre randomised controlled trial conducted in two parallel groups. The primary endpoint is the success rate at Day 7, with success defined as "definitive" weaning from HFNO, i.e. patients weaned from HFNO for more than 48 hours without recourse to non-invasive ventilation (NIV) or intubation and still alive at Day 7. The weaning protocol will be started as soon as the patient meets all the inclusion criteria, considered to be the prerequisites for initiating weaning from HFNO. Patients will be monitored until Day 28 maximum.
