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 explore the experience of adolescents suffering from anorexia nervosa confronted with the prescription of antidepressants
A Phase 2a, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, dose-ranging, placebo-controlled, study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of PLN-74809 in participants with primary sclerosing cholangitis and suspected liver fibrosis
In this clinical study, the investigators will compare vital parameters measurements obtained using continuous data from reference monitors and continuous wireless MultiSense® monitoring patch in 60 patients immediately after in-ward surgery and over 7 days.
In this retrospective observational multicenter study the authors tested the hypothesis that the use of IMPELLA™ pump as bridge to bridge, by giving the opportunity of active rehabilitation, should improve patient's outcomes after the implantation of Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD).
This observational study will evaluate the frequency of complications in adult cancer patients with central venous parenteral nutrition and the identification of aggravating factors.
The current severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic is complicated by pneumonia (15 to 20% of cases) requiring hospitalization with oxygen therapy. Almost 20 to 25% of hospitalized patients require intensive care and resuscitation; half die. The main cause of death is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, some deaths have been linked to pulmonary embolism (PE). Recognition of PE is important because there is specific treatment to limit its own mortality. The identification of biological parameters of hemostasis predictive of thromboembolic disease is crucial in these patients. To evaluate the frequency of PE in the patients having to be hospitalized is to practice of a systematic thoracic angiography scanner in the patients having no contra-indication for its realization, as well as during hospitalization in patients deteriorating without any other obvious cause. The thromboembolic events and disturbances of the coagulation system described in patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonitis suggest that this viral infection is associated with an increase in the activation of coagulation contributing to the occurrence of thrombosis and especially from PE.
Cancer is a disease that requires long-term management, especially now that medical advances have transformed most cancers from an acute to a chronic condition. Most of the time, therefore, the help provided by family and friends is long-term. The negative impact of oncological care on the quality of life of family caregivers has already been studied. The UCOGB carried out a study in 2014 on the primary caregivers of cancer patients aged 70 and over at inclusion and at 3 and 6 months of oncogeriatric care. This study showed that several factors were significantly related to the caregiver's quality of life: the caregiver's age, perception of burden and patient autonomy (18). However, the evolution of quality of life and burden at 5 years has, to our knowledge, never been evaluated.
Patients with advanced gastrointestinal (GI) cancers are very often sarcopenic/malnourished at diagnosis (> 60% of cases) and at high risk of rapid clinical deterioration. These patients have important supportive care needs that represent a major challenge for improving treatment tolerance and patient survival and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Malnutrition and sarcopenia (muscle wasting and dysfunction) are associated with an increased risk of death, complications from chemotherapy, infections, emergency procedures and hospitalizations, and increased costs of care. Therefore, malnutrition and sarcopenia represent a major clinical target in GI cancers. Interventions targeting malnutrition/sarcopenia should be implemented as early as possible in patients' pathways, these syndromes being reversible at early stages but not at late stages. A multidisciplinary assessment at diagnosis and therapeutic approach combining nutritional support and and adapted physical activity (APA) in addition to anticancer treatments should be systematically implemented in patients with advanced GI cancers. This type of intervention complies with the standards recommended by the National Cancer Institute (INCa) to promote the practice of physical activity during and after treatment in oncology.
The aim of the study is to investigate the existence of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) in patients with a history of venous thromboembolism. The study investigators make the assumption that these patients present mutations involved in CHIP occurrence.
The infectivity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), notably when handling human samples, remains poorly understood, as well as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in routine clinical and molecular pathology practice, and for personal working in pathology laboratories. This study evaluates the consequences of the COVID-19 crisis in clinical and molecular pathology laboratories in Europe mostly those orientated for diagnosis of thoracic diseases.
