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.
There is no study comparing safety/efficacy of externally vs internally cooled tip catheters in patients undergoing ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (pAF). The primary objective is to compare safety and efficacy of externally irrigated-tip catheter versus internally irrigated-tip catheter in achieving long term electrical isolation (EI) of pulmonary veins (PV) in paroxysmalatrial fibrillation (pAF).
Masitinib in First Line Treatment of Gastro-Intestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST)
This is a multi-center, open-label study of sitaxsentan sodium 100 mg taken orally once daily by subjects with PAH until sitaxsentan, in a particular country or region, is commercially available for the treatment of PAH or the study is closed.
The purpose of this study is to gather information on the use of anidulafungin for the treatment of Candida infection in patients with an abnormal immune system. It is expected that anidulafungin will be at least as safe and as effective as the comparator drug, caspofungin.
The primary objectives are to compare the mean levels of the sleep quality parameters of subjects : with a nocturnal fall of the SBP (Systolic blood pressure), DBP (diastolic blood pressure) and MAP (mean arterial pressure) over of egal to 10% (dipping subjects) and of subjects with a nocturnal fall of SBP, DBP and MAP inferior to 10% (non dipper subjects). The secondary objectives are : Establish correlations between: - The quality of sleep parameters - The parameters of BP variations between the diurnal and nocturnal periods and the awake periods of sleep defined in reference to polysomnography. - The glycemia levels on 24h with a glycemic holter. The parameters of the sympathic system activation evaluated in reference to the measure of the baroreflex sensibility during the awake period.
The purpose of this new research study is to gain additional information about how safe and effective R935788 is over a longer period of time.
Cardiac surgery often induces acute postoperative pain and moreover chronic dysesthesia frequently occur long-term after sternotomy. The high doses of intraoperative opioïds are well known to enhance postoperative hyperalgesia (HA) and a perioperative local anesthetic agent infusion is one of the therapeutic strategies used to limit this phenomena. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a continuous Ropivacaïne sternal infusion compared with a saline serum infusion to limit postoperative HA, pain and morphine consumption (M) after sternotomy in cardiac surgery. This strategy could lead to lower postoperative morphine consumption and opioïd induced hyperalgesia.
This is a multi-center, open-label non-randomized dose-escalation trial of vorinostat given in combination with vinorelbine. Cohorts will be treated with a fixed dose of vinorelbine (25mg/m²/week continuously, representing the schedule that has been approved). Patients eligible will be enrolled into a standard 3+3 design with a starting dose of vorinostat at 200 mg po qd 7/21 (weekly schedule). Then, further dose levels will be explored. Toxicity of the schedule will be assessed during the first cycle. Patients may receive up to 6 cycles of study medication. Blood samples will be collected at specified time points to assess pharmacokinetic endpoints.
This is a Phase 2, randomized, open-label, multicenter study in subjects with previously untreated CLL. It is designed to evaluate safety and efficacy of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, rituximab (FCR) and lumiliximab versus FCR alone.
In order to prevent the high mortality due to an hypothetic pandemic caused by a newly emerging influenza A virus, antiviral drugs are seen as essential requirements for control of initial influenza outbreaks.Two antivirals are available for the treatment oseltamivir and zanamivir. Emergence of Oseltamivir resistance has been recently reported. . It appeared opportune to assess the efficacy and safety of biotherapy of neuraminidase inhibitors ,will be investigated by a randomized, placebo controlled, double blind study in France, during the next winter season . This study will be conducted in 300 centres of primary care with 900 adults with a virologically suspected influenza A infection. Individuals will be randomized to 1 of the 3 treatment groups: oseltamivir +zanamivir, or oseltamivir+placebo or placebo +zanamivir.The primary judgment criteria will be the proportion of patients with negative RT PCR negative in nasal secretions at Day 2.
