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 utility of capsule endoscopy in diagnosing small bowel (SB) Crohn's disease has been demonstrated in a number of studies. Mucosal healing is a good predictor of long term remission. Unfortunately, the assessment of small bowel mucosal healing by conventional colonoscopy is an invasive technique which is not complete since it does not allow exploration of the small bowel beyond the terminal ileum (TI). Thus, direct evidence of the healing of the majority of the small bowel is lacking.
Cerebral infarction is the most common form of stroke (80% of strokes). Stroke is the first cause of acquired disability, and the 2nd cause of dementia and death. The only approved treatment in the first 4.5 hour is intravenous rt-PA thrombolysis (Actilyse ®) whose objective is recanalization of occluded artery and reperfusion of the brain parenchyma. Few patients are treated (1-5%) and they keep disability in 50-60% of cases. This handicap is mainly correlated to the final infarct size. The objective of neuroprotective treatments is to reduce the final size of the cerebral infarction. The per-conditioning remote ischemic (Per-CID) showed a neuroprotective effect in cerebral ischemia by reducing the final size of cerebral infarction animal models. The per-CID corresponds, in cases of cerebral ischemia, to iterative ischemia realization of a member with a cuff. In humans, the per-CID has shown a cardioprotective effect in a randomized control trial involving 250 patients within 6 first hours of myocardial infarction and candidate for primary angioplasty.
The e-Ultimaster will further validate the safety and efficacy of Ultimaster DES system in unselected patients representing everyday clinical practice. Also the study will assess the impact of non-compliance with dual antiplatelet therapy, one month after stent implementation (frequently observed in every day clinical practice), on stent thrombosis.
Primary Objectives: - To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SAR408701 administered as monotherapy, once every 2 weeks (with and without a loading dose at Cycle 1) to patients with advanced solid tumors (Main Escalation and Loading Dose Escalation Q2W). - To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SAR408701 administered as monotherapy, once every 3 weeks to patients with advanced solid tumors (Escalation Q3W Cycle). - To assess efficacy according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) (Expansion Phase) when SAR408701 is administered once every 2 weeks with or without a loading dose at Cycle 1. Secondary Objectives: - To characterize the overall safety profile of SAR408701. - To characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of SAR408701 and of its potential circulating derivatives. - To identify the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of SAR408701. - To assess the potential immunogenicity of SAR408701.
Adapted Physical Activity (APA) program may provide an opportunity to improve symptoms for patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer. Thereby, it is proposed to conduct an open trial to assess effects of the APA program in such population
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of ixazomib citrate maintenance therapy on progression-free survival (PFS), compared to placebo, in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) who have had a response (complete response [CR], very good partial response [VGPR], or partial response [PR]) to induction therapy followed by high-dose therapy (HDT) and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and activity of acalabrutinib in treating subjects with WM.
Preterm neonates are fragile to infections. Their immune system is immature, yet in France, primary vaccines are injected at two months of age, as in term infants. Recommendations for vaccinations in infants have changed in France in 2013, suppressing the second injection at three months after birth. Preterm and full-term born infants are now vaccinated at two and four months of age, but no data regarding efficacy in very preterm infants have been registered. The investigators hypothesize that two vaccine injections (at two and four months) would be less efficient than three injections (two, three and four months) in very preterm-born infants.
Older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have a small (< 10%) chance of long-term survival. Despite the treatment of elderly AML patients with intensive chemotherapy, the survival has not been improved during the last decades. The purpose of this study is to determine whether frontline therapy with a 10-day decitabine schedule provides a better survival than standard intensive combination chemotherapy in elderly AML patients (>= 60 years).
The present Phase II study aims to assess the rates of late rectal toxicities of grade ≥ 2 after hypofractionated radiotherapy of prostate cancer of 62 Gy in 20 fractions of 3.1 Gy with an injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) in the space between the rectum and the prostate. Thirty-six patients with a low- to intermediate-risk prostate cancer according to the D'Amico classification are included in the present protocol. The main characteristics of the study are that the patients benefit of a reduction of the treatment duration from 40 to 20 fractions, due to the hypofractionated irradiation, and of an injection of 3 to 10 cc of hyaluronic acid in the perirectal fat between the rectum and the prostate.
