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 main objective of this study is to analyze the survival of a cohort of patients admitted for acute decompensation of pulmonary arterial hypertension or postembolic pulmonary hypertension and to establish the prognostic value of biomarkers.
This is a study of perioperative pembrolizumab or enfortumab vedotin in combination with pembrolizumab in participants who are cisplatin-ineligible or decline cisplatin with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). The primary hypothesis is that perioperative pembrolizumab plus radical cystectomy (RC) plus pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) and perioperative enfortumab vedotin in combination with pembrolizumab plus RC+PLND will achieve superior event-free survival (EFS) compared with RC+PLND alone. With Amendment 5, outcome measures for programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) combined positive score (CPS) were removed. With Amendment 8, the primary outcome measure of pathologic complete response (pCR) rates was changed to a secondary outcome measure.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) plus pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in the treatment of adult participants with unresected stage I or II (Stage IIB N0, M0) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The primary study hypothesis is SBRT plus pembrolizumab prolongs Event-free Survival (EFS) compared to SBRT plus placebo (normal saline solution).
A global study to evaluate peri-operative pembrolizumab with chemotherapy versus placebo to pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy in cisplatin eligible patients.
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) based on concentric exercise training has become an integral component in the treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), improving functional capacities while diminishing symptoms and improving quality of life. However, the response to concentric exercise training is heterogeneous from one COPD patient to another. The inability of some COPD patients to achieve the exercise intensities required to stress limb muscles due to severe ventilatory limitation could partially explain their poor response to training. Endurance exercise with eccentric muscle contractions could be an interesting alternative to concentric exercise because it produces greater muscle force through its lower metabolic cost. Eccentric exercise could allow patients with severe airflow limitation to perform prolonged exercise sessions with sufficient intensity to improve muscle function. Nevertheless, a recent study performed in healthy young subjects reported that eccentric exercise induced a more hyperpneic breathing pattern (i.e., lower tidal volume and higher breathing frequency) that concentric for a given minute ventilation. The main objective of CONvEX study is to compare ventilatory adaptation between two modalities of exercise performed on cycle ergometer (concentric versus eccentric) in severe COPD patients.
This is a monocenter, interventional, non-randomized study among women patients with an ovarian or tubal cancer who will receive a surgery or adjuvant chemotherapy treatment, or a neo-adjuvant chemotherapy then surgery +/- adjuvant chemotherapy. The planned interventions are collection of biological samples at different times. The study will aim to describe the immunological profile at diagnosis in terms of phenotypic : PBMCs (peripheral blood, mononuclear cells) in peripheral blood, TILs (tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes) in ascites and in carcinomatosis.
The purpose of the study is to determine wether a rituximab-based treatment compared to standard therapy (glucocorticoid alone) in patients with microscopic polyangiitis without any bad prognosis marker increases the remission and reduces the relapse free survival rate.
This study is an observational study of MIF involvement in retrospectively and prospectively included adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Standard care samples collected at diagnosis, after one course of treatment, at time of remission controls, and at time of relapse will be used. The first objective is to determine which AMLs have pre-leukemic stem cells that overexpress MIF. Cytogenetic and molecular (NGS) profiling will be performed at diagnosis. Blood and bone marrow plasma, as well as bone marrow mononuclear cells will be collected and stored. The expression of MIF and its receptor (CD74 and CXCR4) will be analysed. Their prognostic value will be also tested. The second objective is to test whether patients in complete remission have persistent pre-leukemic stem cells that overexpress MIF. Blood and bone marrow plasma, bone marrow mononuclear cells from patients in complete remission will be collected. MIF, CD74, and CXCR4 expression by hematopoietic cells at time of diagnosis and remission will be compared to determine which patients have a persistent overexpression/secretion of MIF. In the meantime, the persistence of initiating lesions in complete remission samples will be tested by NGS, digital PCR, FISH, or RT-PCR methods. The third objective is to develop a pre-clinical model to target MIF in immuno-compromised mice (NSG mice) transplanted with primary AML cells and cells with pre-leukemic lesions. TET2 depletion leads to MIF over-expression/secretion by hematopoietic cells and improved multi-lineage NSG-repopulation capacity. MIF inhibitors and anti-MIF antibodies will be tested in these pre-clinical TET2-depleted models. Xenotransplantation of selected primary AML samples and xenotransplantation of TET2 depleted hematopoietic stem cells into NSG mice will be used. The fourth objective is to understand how MIF is deregulated in pre-leukemic stem cells and how the MIF-dependent crosstalk between mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and pre-leukemic stem cells or normal hematopoietic cells works. The molecular mechanisms of MIF overexpression will be analyzed in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells from normal and leukemic bone marrow, with a focus on cells depleted in TET2 or DNMT3A. To study the cross-talk between hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, pre-leukemic stem cells, and bone marrow MSCs, co-culture experiments will be performed using available MSC cell lines and primary MSCs from healthy donors.
The TRANSLUMINA GmbH YuChooSeR Observatory is a prospective, multicentric post-marketing observatory designed to evaluate large scale safety and reliability of the Yukon Choice PC and the Yukon Chrome PC stents systems use in routine, clinical practice. This based observatory will enroll 3000 patients to 30 sites in France.
This post-marketing study is designed to compare the safety of baricitinib versus tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors with respect to venous thromboembolic events (VTEs) when given to participants with rheumatoid arthritis.
