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 this study is to assess the hypothesis that, as compared to early intravenous feeding, early nutrition via the enteral route is associated with reduced Day 28-mortality in critically ill patients treated with mechanical ventilation and vasoactive drug.
A phase Ib dose-escalation study of the AEB071 and MEK162 combination in adult patients with confirmed metastatic uveal melanoma. Cohorts of 3-6 patients will be assessed for dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) during Cycle 1 until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the combination therapy is determined. The MTD or Phase 2 Recommended Dose (P2RD) will be used in a Phase II part of the study, which will enrol 55 patients each into two randomized groups: the combination therapy or MEK162 alone. The Phase II part will continue until proof of concept is established. Patients will continue treatment as long as clinical benefit is seen and no limiting adverse toxicity is observed
The purpose of this study is to determine whether combining ganetespib (STA-9090) with docetaxel is more effective than docetaxel alone in the treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment with BIIB019 (Daclizumab High Yield Process; DAC HYP) monotherapy in participants with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) who completed Study 205MS301 (NCT01064401), Study 205MS203 (NCT01051349) or Study 205MS302 (NCT01462318). Secondary objectives of this study in this study population are as follows: To describe MS-related outcomes, including MS relapse, disability progression, MS lesion formation, and participant-reported impact of MS, following long-term treatment with DAC HYP To assess the long-term immunogenicity of DAC HYP administered by prefilled syringe (PFS) To assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of switching to DAC HYP in participants previously on long-term treatment with interferon β-1a (Avonex) in Study 205MS301(NCT01064401).
The aim of the study is to compare optimal medical therapy alone versus percutaneous coronary intervention on top of medical therapy in the setting of heart transplant recipient coronary artery disease in a randomized trial.The primary endpoint assessed at 1 year is the composite of death, myocardial infarction, need for transitory or permanent ventricular assist device implantation, myocardial revascularization, occurrence or worsening of heart failure, any graft dysfunction and/or a decrease of left ventricular ejection fraction of at least 25% compared to baseline. The hypothesis of the study is the superiority of the interventional management over medical therapy alone in preventing the occurrence of the primary endpoint of the study.
In Multiple Myeloma, an adult hematological malignancy, mainly located in the Bone Marrow (BM), dramatic recent progresses have been observed, thanks to new agents (proteasome inhibitors and IMIDs). However, at time of first relapse, high-dose therapy followed by Stem Cell Rescue (SCR) is frequently mandatory as a consolidation in minimal residual disease, to healthy patients under 65 yo, combining Melphalan (MPH) and/or Total Body Irradiation. Modern irradiation modalities are now available by the use of HI-ART Tomotherapy system to realize a Total Bone Marrow Irradiation (TBMI), in order both to limit the dose administered to Organ at Risk (lungs, oral cavity) and to focus efficacy on BM. In this phase-1 study, the conditioning regimen before SCR will combine a fixed high-dose MPH (140 mg/m²) and a dose escalated TBMI, so as to define its Maximal Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLT). An extended cohort will further in a phase-2 setting.
To prove that the 3 dimensional sonohysterography is, at least, as effective as the diagnostic hysteroscopy in examining the uterine cavity.
Multicenter randomised study, on parallel groups to compare recovery of functional amplitude following shoulder dilatation with auto rehabilitation in one group and physiotherapy in the other group.
Type-2 Diabetes and Sleep Apnea Syndrome (SAS) are both related to an increase in platelet activation. Type 2 diabetes is often associated with sleep apnea syndrome with a prevalence up to 60%. The main objective of our study is to analyze the influence of sleep apnea on the response to antiplatelet therapy in stable aspirin-treated type-2 diabetes patients. Consecutive stable aspirin-treated type-2 diabetes patients referred for suspicion of sleep apnea will be recruited after providing informed consent. Response to aspirin will be assessed with the Verify Now Aspirin(TM)rapid analyser in the morning after nocturnal polysomnography, and compared with a group of type-2 diabetes free of sleep apnea. Other endocrine, metabolic, hematologic and cardiovascular confounders will also be assessed at baseline to determine their influence on the response to aspirin. Then, Patients with severe SAS (Apnea-Hypopnea Index> 30 events/h) and response with Aspirin (ARU > 454) will be randomized to 3 months of active or sham continuous positive airway pressure treatment in a pilot study. After the 3-months of intervention, response to aspirin will be compared between the sham and effective CPAP groups.
The general objective of this open, pilot study is to characterize biological parameters related to acute kidney injury among patients undergoing a programmed coronarography with injection of contrast material. The study focuses on two main factors that may influence acute kidney injury: (1) sodium chloride hydration strategy versus sodium bicarbonate hydration strategy and (2) presence of oral L-carnitine treatment versus absence of oral L-carnitine treatment. We will also test for a potential interaction between these two factors.
