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.
Maternal hypothermia is very frequent after caesarean delivery under spinal anaesthesia and should be prevented, as it induces discomfort and increases the risk of postoperative complications. Several modalities of active warming have been explored, with contrasting results. Small IV Fluid warming systems offer effective and safe IV fluid warming without discomfort, and are very easy to use. The investigators hypothesize that such devices can efficiently prevent hypothermia after caesarean section even with high flow rates of infusion. The purpose of this study is to determine whether active fluid warming reduces the occurrence of maternal hypothermia after scheduled caesarean section, as compared with no active warming. The investigators plane to conduce a double-blinded randomized controlled trial. Seventy women undergoing scheduled caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia in 3 different maternity units will be included. The primary outcome is the occurrence of maternal hypothermia (<36.0°C) on admission to the post anaesthesia care unit. The secondary outcomes are perioperative maternal hypothermia, maternal thermal discomfort, maternal recovery and neonatal well-being
This is an open-label, single arm, Phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of avapritinib (BLU-285) in patients with advanced systemic mastocytosis (AdvSM), including patients with aggressive SM (ASM), SM with associated hematologic neoplasm (SM-AHN), and mast cell leukemia (MCL)
To evaluate efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic profile of asciminib 40mg+imatinib or asciminib 60mg+imatinib versus continued imatinib and versus nilotinib versus asciminib 80mg in pre-treated patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP)
Total mesorectal excision (TME) is the standard of care for rectal cancer, which can be combined with low anterior resection (LAR) in patients with mid-to-low rectal cancer. The narrow pelvic space and difficulties in obtaining adequate exposure make surgeries technically challenging. Four techniques are used to perform the surgery: open laparotomy, laparoscopy, robot-assisted surgery, and transanal surgery. Comparative data for these techniques is required to provide clinical data on the surgical management of rectal cancers by surgery.
Open Label Extension Study of Voxelotor Clinical Trial Participants with Sickle Cell Disease Who Participated in Voxelotor Clinical Trials
Denervation of neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) and initial compensatory reinnervation is the earliest pathological event in various motor neuron disease models, occurring far before motor symptom onset. In patients harboring genetic mutations responsible for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), identification of early, pre-symptomatic, NMJ pathological events and compensatory mechanisms could lead to the development of new treatments to prevent motor functional impairment. The aims of our study are thus: 1. To investigate and characterize early, presymptomatic, defects of NMJ morphology in pre-manifest C9ORF72 or SOD1 mutation carriers; 2. To investigate and quantify reinnervation at the level of NMJs in these subjects; 3. To identify muscle molecular dysregulated pathways involved in the development of NMJ alterations and the development / maintenance of compensatory collateral reinnervation.
This is a randomized, open label, multicenter phase III trial comparing the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of tisagenlecleucel to Standard Of Care in adult patients with aggressive B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma after failure of rituximab and anthracycline containing frontline immunochemotherapy.
Fractures related to skeleton fragility (i.e. osteoporotic fractures) represent a growing health problem, as the life expectancy and thus the number of frail elderly subjects is increasing. These fractures are associated with individual and societal consequences. The fractures are responsible for increased disability, chronic pain, and loss of independency. The annual cost of either prevalent or incident osteoporotic-related fractures exceeds the same ratio calculation for many other serious chronic diseases. Mortality risk is increased following osteoporotic fractures. Several classes of osteoporosis therapies are proven to reduce fracture risk, based on placebo controlled trials of 3-5 years duration, including in elderly patients. These data are the rationale for screening of patients at risk of fracture, recognizing that the optimal approach is to identify subjects at risk for major fractures . Bone fragility is related to the decrease of both the quality and the quantity of bone. Bone mineral density (BMD) is a surrogate of bone fragility, with the advantage of being non-invasively measurable, at relevant sites, such as vertebrae and upper extremity of the femur. A low BMD, age, and prevalent fractures are the 3 main determinants of the risk of sustaining a fracture. A low BMD has also been reported as a determinant of all cause mortality risk in the general population. So far, screening of low BMD by QCT has not been recommended because of low availability of the devices, irradiation, and cost. However, a huge number of QCT are performed daily for various medical indications. These thoracic and abdominal QCT carry potential information about vertebral BMD. These data are already available, with no additional cost, patient time, nor radiation exposure. They can be retrospectively (in our study) or prospectively (in the future context of care) analyzed, and are the basis of an opportunistic screening for osteoporosis: this denotes the use of diagnostic QCT scans made for other medical indication to screen for patients at high fracture risk. There is no study of this QCT based measurement as an opportunistic screening for patients at short-term risk for fracture. Opportunistic screening of osteoporosis, by diagnosis of low BMD on abdominal QCT performed for various medical indications, is able to detect subjects at short-term (i.e. over 3 years) risk of fracture (necessitating an hospitalization).
This qualitative interview-based study aim to build a tool to assess quality of life in patients (adults or children) suffering from 6 autoinflammatory diseases (FMF, TRAPS, CAPS, MKD, Still and PFAPA).
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of upadacitinib for the treatment of adolescent and adult participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD) who are candidates for systemic therapy.
