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.
Most patients with glioblastoma have impaired cognitive function, autonomy, and quality of life. This clinical situation, combined with a limited life expectancy, makes the preservation of quality of life a major objective, in a supportive environment that respects family integration. This is especially true since there is an established relationship between health-related quality of life, as measured by questionnaires. In this context, and despite the lack of impact on overall survival, improving quality of life becomes a priority objective in recent Phase III trials. The feasibility of introducing early accompaniment in GBM should be assessed in the diagnostic and therapeutic announcement environment. In order to measure the expected impact as favorable in the patient and his family, a broad survey of the classic domains of quality of life and more specifically dedicated to neurological symptomatology.
Since 13 November 2013, XOFIGO has been authorised on the European zone for the treatment of patients with prostate cancer, in the phase of resistance to castration, with symptomatic bone metastases. bone metastases frequently give rise to "bone events" that include spinal cord compressions and pathological fractures requiring surgery or external radiotherapy. Bone metastases are an important cause of death, disability, quality of life degradation and increase the cost of treatment. Xofigo is indicated in patients with bone metastases symptomatic of hormone-resistant prostate cancer and without known visceral metastases.
"Background France counted on January 1, 2020, 70,651 people detained, for 61,080 places. Overcrowding in detention is considered as risk factor for infectious diseases transmission, such as respiratory infections. The prison environment represents a confined environment, which could protect prisoners from possible external contamination. If one or more inmates were infected through visiting rooms, officers working in detention, or newly incarcerated people, an epidemic could spread more quickly in the prison community. Thus, few cases of COVID-19 were observed among the subjects in detention with a few weeks delay compared to the free world. However, detention conditions make it more difficult to detect suspicious cases. On the other hand, carrying out diagnostic tests is structurally more difficult to carry out there. Thus, given the plurality of clinical presentations, the non-optimal sensitivity of the SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR, and the difficulty in carrying out diagnostic tests, it is today difficult to have a precise idea of the number of prisoners having encountered SARS-CoV-2. It is also a population that is not taken into account in the large seroprevalence studies currently conducted in the general population. In order to estimate the number of prisoners exposed to SARS-CoV-2 and in the absence of data currently available in the medical literature, a seroprevalence study in this at risk and little studied population would bring new data to the medical community. Hypothesis In adult subjects living in penal establishments in Ile de France, the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 would be lower compared to the general population. Material and method Open multicenter cross-sectional study carried out in the 11 penal establishments of Ile de France. A sampling of 3,500 inmates stratified over the 16 detention areas concerned will be carried out. The inclusion criteria will be detained subjects who have expressed their consent to participate in the research, aged 18 to 80 years. Each selected detainee will be invited to the health unit to perform a venous blood test for anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. The goal is to take 2,500 blood samples (30% expected refusal rate). Each sample will be analyzed in the virology laboratory at P. Brousse hospital. Expected results Obtain an assessment of the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in prisons to determine the exposure of detained persons. This assessment will make it possible to undertake public health actions and to propose the implementation of group protection measures such as vaccination if this is soon available.
In endemic areas, Plasmodium falciparum malaria exacts a huge public health toll, causing close to half a million deaths each year. In non-endemic industrialized areas, imported malaria may develop. In France, around 5000 imported cases occured annually, including 10-15% of severe malaria. The criteria for defining severe malaria in endemic areas are established by the World Health Organization (WHO), and have been adjusted for severe imported malaria. In France, in order to optimize management, severe imported malaria is separated into two groups: very severe malaria (VSM) and less severe malaria (LSM). Briefly VSM included coma and/or shock and/or respiratory failure and/or acidosis and/or hyperlactatemia and/or death during hospitalization. In France, severe imported malaria is treated with intravenous artesunate. Little is known about the management of imported VSM in the ICU with intravenous artesunate. In a French national multicentric retrospective frame, the main objective of the present study is to describe in detail: epidemiology, management, outcome and prognostic of very severe imported malaria treated with intravenous artesunate during the period 2011-2019. The second objective is to retrospectively compare two groups : VSM treated with intravenous artesunate in the ICU during 2011-2019 versus VSM treated with intravenous quinine in the ICU during 2000-2010.
In this study, investigator propose to assess the prevalence of pelvic static disorders in women undergoing adjuvant hormone therapy for localized breast cancer and to assess the overall quality of life in these patients
This study will be an exploratory study of long term immunogenicity of INVAC-1 in patients who participated in the INVAC1-CT-101 phase I study (between 2014 and 2018).
The aeronautical community was also affected and greatly impacted economically and socially by the Covid-19 pandemic. Away from the acute phase, the epidemiological impact and the consequences of this disease within the French aviation flight crew population must be assessed. This study is aimed at providing original epidemiological data among civil and military aircrew, prior to possible prevention strategies or countermeasures to optimize risk management in terms of aviation safety and to promote, if necessary, future targeted studies.
The most common drug allergy reported is penicillin allergy, approximately 10% of the world's population. According to the latest studies, only 1-2% of them have a proven hypersensitivity to penicillins. Being wrongly labeled "allergic" leads to a loss of chance for patients to be treated with a molecule of less efficacy than penicillins, an increase in bacterial resistance by broadening the spectrum of action of the molecules prescribed as an alternative and ultimately a additional financial cost. There are several forms of hypersensitivity: the two most classic: immediate hypersensitivity (type I according to Gell and Combs) with a reaction within an hour of taking and non-immediate hypersensitivity with a reaction occurring several days later (type IV according to Gell and Combs). A large majority of patients report a history of allergy in childhood that is poorly described and most often absent from health records. In most cases, this may be a viral rash concomitant with a febrile episode mistakenly mistaken for an allergic skin reaction. Patients are then tested for several decades, in adulthood, after their initial reaction. This latency of time involves a risk of negativation of the allergic tests and it is not excluded that the skin tests or drug reintroductions re cause sensitization to the antibiotic tested and that ultimately the patient reacts when taking the future drug. In fact, it is recommended to optimally explore patients approximately 6 months after an allergic reaction (except for severe drug eruptions). The exploration of drug hypersensitivity to penicillins therefore involves a strict questioning of the circumstances of the so-called allergic reaction allowing the reaction to be classified as immediate or delayed, then skin tests (prick test, IDR and Patch test according to the immediate profile or delayed) and finally the hospital provocation test. While provocation tests are carried out conventionally most often within one day, it has been shown that some patients react several days after taking penicillin repeatedly: 6.1% have a reaction in their protocol of taking for 5 days at home in the context of a delayed allergy. In the allergology service at hôpital Paris Saint-Joseph, the protocol corresponds to 2 successive reintroductions. This study is to evaluate the protocol for reintroducing Amoxicillin or Augmentin carried out over two stages: a first with 100 mg (i.e. 1 / 10th of a dose) then a second with a dose of 1200 mg 1 month later. It would be a question of seeing if with the second reintroduction, one could not catch up with allergic people who would have presented a false negative during the first reintroduction because of explorations too far away from their initial reaction.
Deprescribing is defined as "the process of withdrawal of an inappropriate medication, supervised by a health care professional with the goal of managing the polypharmacy and improving outcomes". Inappropriate use of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) is associated with severe adverse drug reactions and a major economic impact. Deprescribing should be considered when inappropriate prescription of PPI is identified. DeprescrIPP DAM is a pragmatic trial, population-based, designed in clusters. It wil assess the efficacy of a multi-faceted intervention (an educational outreach visit to general practitioners associated with the sending of patient education material to their patients) to deprescribe PPI.
This questionnaire is distributed via a mailing list (e-mail) of patients treated within the framework of the FHU for pathologies including chronic inflammatory bowel diseases or IBD (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis), inflammatory rheumatic diseases (such as rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis), but also asthma, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis as well as systemic autoimmune (such as scleroderma, lupus, angioedema) and neurological (multiple sclerosis) diseases. A two-step analysis will be conducted: impact of lock down(March 17, 2020 - May 11, 2020) and a 2-month assessment of end of lock down (from May 11, 2020) on issues addressing: overall impact, impact on the disease, treatment and follow-up, and access to information related to the epidemic during these periods.
