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 primary objective of this study is to determine the long-term safety and tolerability of ataluren in participants with nonsense mutation cystic fibrosis (nmCF) who completed participation in the double-blind study PTC124-GD-009-CF (NCT00803205), as assessed by adverse events and laboratory abnormalities. The secondary objective of this study includes the assessment of the efficacy of ataluren, as measured by forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and pulmonary exacerbation rate, and other safety parameters (for example, 12-lead electrocardiogram [ECG] measurements, vital signs).
Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) is a rare (~ 1/6000) but ubiquitous genetic disease. It is associated with abnormal angiogenesis and autosomal dominant inheritance, leading to telangiectasias and arteriovenous fistulae. More than 95% of patients are concerned by epistaxis (nosebleeds). These events are spontaneous, repeated, irregular, both diurnal and nocturnal, a source of anemia, disabling and very socially embarrassing. Anti-angiogenic treatments, including bevacizumab, are a new therapeutic option in HHT. The aim of this study is to evaluate 3 months after the end of the treatment the efficacy on the duration of the nosebleeds with 3 different doses (25, 50 and 75 mg) of bevacizumab administered as a nasal spray in a repeated manner (3 administrations) in patients with Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia complicated by nosebleeds. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, seamless phase II/III study is to be carried out on 4 groups of 20 patients for first step and 2 groups of 20 to 40 patients for second step
This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, multiple-dose study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BOTOX in adolescents with urinary incontinence due to overactive bladder (OAB) with inadequate management with anticholinergic therapy. Participants were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive a single Tx of 25 U, 50 U, or 100 U BOTOX (not to exceed 6 U/kg) on Day 1, were seen after each treatment at Weeks 2, 6, and 12 post-treatment, and thereafter at alternating telephone and clinic visits every 6 weeks until they qualified for further retreatment/exited the study. Participants could receive multiple treatments dependent upon the number and timing of patient requests/qualification for retreatment. At each retreatment the investigator could keep the dose the same or increase it one dose level in a blinded fashion. Participants exited the study once 96 weeks have elapsed since entry on Day 1 and at least 12 weeks follow-up since their last study treatment had occurred.
Multicenter randomized phase II study, double-blind, comparing Taxotere plus curcumin versus Taxotere plus placebo combination in first-line treatment of prostate cancer metastatic castration resistant. Assess time to progression (time to progression) of metastatic disease (from first day of treatment in the trial).
In patients with a high thromboembolic risk, withdrawing anticoagulant treatment is recommended in some situations, including when major hæmorrhage occurs. But withdrawing treatment can be risky. In patients on a curative dose of anticoagulant medicine, treatment withdrawal heightens the risk of thromboembolic events occurring, with potentially major consequences. For instance, mechanical valve thrombosis is fatal in 15% of patients. Resumption of anticoagulation is therefore critical in patients at high risk for thromboembolic events. However, in these patients having presented major hæmorrhage, resumption of anticoagulation heightens the risk of hæmorrhage recurrence. This risk is even higher when the original hæmorrhage was not accessible via surgical, endoscopic or endoluminal hemostasis. As far as investigators know, there is no data in the literature to rely on when the major hæmorrhage is not accessible via hemostatic intervention and the risk of thrombosis is high. When confronted with patients who need anticoagulation but have a high risk of hæmorrhage recurrence, the question of when treatment should be resumed has not been resolved. This is why investigators propose to conduct a randomised comparative study to evaluate two treatment strategies - early resumption (H48 to H72) versus late resumption (H120 to H144) of anticoagulation. MAIN OBJECTIVE: The main objective of the present study is to evaluate in terms of bleeding risk, thrombosis risk and mortality at one month, the effect of early vs. late resumption of anticoagulation in patients having presented with serious hæmorrhage while on curative-dose anticoagulants and facing a high thromboembolic risk.
The primary objective of this study is to obtain long term safety data of ataluren in male participants with nonsense mutation dystrophinopathy (who participated and completed a previous Phase 3 study of ataluren [PTC124-GD-020-DMD {NCT01826487}]) to augment the overall safety database. Screening and baseline procedures are structured to avoid a gap in treatment between the double-blind study (PTC124-GD-020-DMD) and this extension study. This study may be further extended by amendment until either ataluren becomes commercially available or the clinical development of ataluren in duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is discontinued.

In the diagnosis of renal colic gallstone , in addition to clinical and biological factors, it is a key : medical imaging. Currently , the French recommendations require at least a couple of Abdomen radiography Without Preparation lying face (ASP ) associated with abdominal ultrasound . "The abdominopelvic CT scan without injection of contrast is the examination of choice. Current recommendations in the management of gallstone colic simply based on the joint use of analgesics , anti inflammatory drugs and control of water intake . The mechanism of analgesic action of this treatment is a decrease in the pressure in the cavities by decrease in diuresis and inflammation treatment of ureteral permitting passage of urine . ) The expulsive medical therapy remains under evaluation. The French Association of Urology does not recommend at this time for lack of evidence deemed sufficient. For foreign companies Urology (EAU , AUA) , the use of calcium channel blockers or alpha blockers in the treatment of symptomatic lower ureteral stones (4 to 10mm ) is recommended (grade 1A) . However, there are less formal studies of their effectiveness . Investigators wish to demonstrate the effectiveness of alpha in medical expulsive therapy for pelvic stones 4 to 10mm .
Discogenic low back pain is the most common form of chronic low back pain. Its diagnosis is mainly based on MR imaging, showing MODIC I or II changes in patients with concordant symptomatology. The treatment of discogenic low back pain is nevertheless difficult: intradiscal therapies (corticosteroids, methylene blue, radiofrequency) have a limited efficacy, and surgical procedures (arthrodesis or disc replacement) are a final recourse with notable risk of side-effects. In this study, the efficacy of intradiscal injection of gelified ethanol (DiscoGel) in patients with disabling discogenic pain is assessed.
The corneal collagen cross linking is currently used in the treatment of keratoconus but this procedure has also a sterilizing non-specific effect on bacteria and fungus. So the corneal cross linking in association with the antibiotic treatment could result in a reduction of the duration of epithelial complete healing of the cornea.
