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 purpose of the transfusion of packed red blood cell is to overcome acute or chronic anemia cause tissue hypoxia. It increases hemoglobin concentration and consequently increase oxygen delivery to peripheral tissues. The perioperative period of major surgery is a field particularly favorable to the development of tissue hypoxia, which is associated with increased mortality and postoperative morbidity. Optimization of oxygen transport to tissues at the preoperative period is accompanied by a significant reduction of these major complications. Clinical complications (infectious or otherwise) related to transfusion of caps Red Blood cells Caps (RBC)are well known. Many studies seem to evidence the potentially deleterious effect of transfusion, especially in patients with poor condition, related to storage time. Indeed, during storage, impaired blood-related storage is created. It is metabolic, biochemical and molecular levels. Many studies, carried out in particular in cardiac surgery where patients are suitable for transfusion RBC, have focused on the effect of transfusions on consumption and the transport of oxygen to demonstrate the impact of conservation lesions on their role in vivo. In particular, a single-center retrospective American study showed reduction of postoperative complications in patients who received RBC under 14 days. However one of the confounding factors present is that all transfused RBCs are not leukoreduced (unlike the French transfusion policy). In addition, the greater part of the clinical studies are controversial. That is why we aim to assess, through a retrospective study of data, the impact of transfusion of red red blood cells within 14 days of post-operative morbidity and mortality, compared to the usual transfusion practice in cardiac surgery patients.
The main purpose of this prospective, multicenter, open-label phase II study, was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pasireotide alone or in combination with cabergoline in patients with Cushing's disease.
This is a multi-center, open-label Phase Ib dose escalation part followed by a randomized double-blinded placebo controlled Phase II part. The Phase Ib part will determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)/Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) of buparlisib in combination with docetaxel. Subsequently the MTD/RP2D will be investigated in a Phase II randomized trial in patients with advanced or metastatic squamous NSCLC.
To evaluate response rate of cisplatin - metronomic cyclophosphamide treatment.
Study assessing efficacy of a Cisplatine- Métronomic cyclophosphamide treatment in Patients with Metastatic Triple Negative breast Cancer Secondary Resistant to Anthracyclines and Taxanes.
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility of resistance training and physical functioning associated with nutrition therapeutic education in head and neck cancer patients, during their treatment (chemotherapy with or without radiotherapy).
The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of immediate single-stage post-mastectomy breast reconstruction with Strattice Reconstructive Tissue Matrix (Strattice) as compared to immediate two-stage post-mastectomy breast reconstruction where the initially placed expander was exchanged for a breast implant only, without any type of reinforcement.
In the prenatal period, les supernumerary marker chromosomes (SMC) and de novo apparently balanced reciprocal translocations are revealed by foetal karyotyping, which does not always make it possible to determine whether the anomaly is balanced or not and does not reveal uniparental disomy. The presence of these chromosomal rearrangements raises a difficult question for genetic counselling during pregnancy because of the risk of intellectual deficiency in the foetus. CGH+SNP-Array can provide information concerning 1) the balanced or not nature of these translocations 2) the presence or not of euchromatin in the SMC 3) the presence or not of uniparental disomy.
This is a phase II/III confirmatory study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of nintedanib (BIBF 1120) in combination + (pemetrexed / cisplatin) followed by nintedanib (BIBF 1120) versus placebo + pemetrexed / cisplatin followed by placebo for the treatment of patients with unresectable malignant pleural mesothelioma.
The purpose of this study is to compare progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with advanced/metastatic breast cancer who have a BRCA mutation when treated with niraparib as compared to those treated with physician's choice
