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 aim of this study is to assess the success rate, of using a Lamina Curved plate (Osteobiol® Laboratory) in the treatment of persistent OACs over 5mm.
Ankle sprain in children is a very common pathology. Currently in France, a standard X-ray is done in almost all cases. However, the literature has for several years validated the consideration of the Ottawa ankle rules in children to avoid the realization of these X-rays. Our study is an evaluation of clinical practice. The aim is to assess the impact of the implementation of a new protocol using the Ottawa ankle rules from the age of 5. In particular, radiographic sparing and absence of diagnostic error.
During deep brain stimulation procedures in Parkinson's disease (PD), the most important prognostic element is the positioning of the surgical electrode in the subthalamic nucleus which is the anatomical target. The main objective of this project is therefore to compare 2 techniques thanks to a prospective comparative randomised open-label study: the use of O-ARM to acquire stereotactic imaging directly in the operating room and the standard technique requiring stereotactic imaging to be performed in the radiology department.
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab and tislelizumab in combination with investigational agent(s) in first-line recurrent or metastatic (R/M) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
The loss of standing and walking capabilities in a paraplegic person is most often the result of damage to the spinal cord, either traumatic (accidental) or pathological and has both a somatic and a psychological impact on the quality of life, the risk of depression, and the difficulty of socio-professional reintegration in a society that is not adapted to people with disabilities. A motorized mechanical exoskeleton is an external device intended to compensate for a muscular or neurological deficiency enabling paraplegics to stand and walk again. The Atalante exoskeleton, designed by Wandercraft company allows patients to stand upright and walk without the aid of crutches. This early study was the first clinical investigation of the Atalante exoskeleton performed early in the development. It was used to evaluate the device design concept with respect to initial clinical safety and device functionality and guided further device modifications.
Current management of patients treated with External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) for cervical cancer with a classical Image-guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) strategy involves a complex, not entirely satisfactory, treatment workflow. Indeed, in our institution, two workflows have been designed to take into account the inter-fraction motion of cervix and uterus : an Internal Target Volume (ITV)-based approach and a plan of the day strategy requiring both several planning-CT (Computed Tomography) acquisitions with variable bladder filling.The upcoming installation of a Varian Ethos therapy system in our institution will allow us to implement a less cumbersome online adaptive radiotherapy strategy (oART), which, by conforming to the daily anatomy, will enable a reduction in the Clinical Target Volume (CTV) to Planning Target Volume (PTV) margins leading to an expected reduction in dose delivered to organs at risk (OAR) .On the other hand, MR (Magnetic Resonance)-only treatment planning is playing an increasing role in radiotherapy, notably in the treatment of prostate cancer. MR-only workflows are known (a) to provide the most reliable delineation in soft tissues and (b) to decrease spatial uncertainties by suppressing the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-CT co-registration. Regarding the management of cervical cancer, the importance of MRI is well established and its use becomes essential. Combining a MR-only workflow with an adaptative one on the Varian Ethos system, could lead to an improved management of patients treated for cervical cancer with an expected reduction in margins and volumes treated (thanks to MRI delineation and online adaptation) and therefore a reduction of OAR toxicity. Including regular multi-parametric MR imaging during and after the course of the treatment could also provide in the future an assessment of the treatment response. One of the important challenges in developing this specific workflow is to have a reliable synthetic CT (derived from MRI) to (a) provide electron or mass density for treatment planning calculations and (b) allow accurate online repositioning/deformation with Ethos Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). The other fundamental challenge is to provide a formal assessment of the clinical benefit of introducing MR-only simulation and planning in an oART workflow. This project aims to demonstrate the feasibility of setting up an adaptive workflow on the ETHOS platform with the sole use of MR patient image.The project is divided into two parts. The first part consists in demonstrate the feasibility of the workflow on 15 patients with cervix cancer.
This is a Phase Ib/II, open-label, multicenter, randomized platform study to evaluate neoadjuvant immunotherapy combinations in participants with resectable HCC. The study is designed with the flexibility to open new treatment arms as new agents become available, close existing treatment arms that demonstrate minimal clinical activity or unacceptable toxicity, or modify the participant population.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea is a common medical condition in children. Diagnosis is based on polysomnography . We conducted an open prospective non randomised clinical trial to assess the efficacy of a new medical device called SUNRISE.
Neoadjuvant/adjuvant IDE196 (darovasertib) in patients with primary uveal melanoma
Cancer treatments can trigger cutaneous side-effects, as well as nail and hair toxicities. When related to drug treatment, this iatrogeny depends on the type of drug, its dosage and individual susceptibility. Although these dermatological adverse events are rarely serious, they can significantly alter patients' quality of life, and may even necessitate the introduction of curative treatment. The impact of these side effects can be mitigated by the use of dermo-cosmetic products and aesthetic solutions. However, most of this supportive care is not reimbursed by the health insurance system, representing a source of inequalities in access to healthcare for cancer patients.
