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 assess the analgesic efficacy of flexibly-dosed pregabalin in the adjunctive treatment of subjects with cancer-induced bone pain.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of potassium iodide during pregnancy on neuro-cognitive development of children followed up until two years.
Although ionizing radiations have been proposed for the prevention of intimal hyperplasia in coronary and peripheral arteries, information is lacking on how irradiation may prevent neointimal smooth-muscle cell proliferation and restenosis on prosthetic haemodialysis vascular access. We will assess the preventive effect of one dose of radiations (14 Gy) administered transcutaneously one day after dilatation of stenosis on prosthetic haemodialysis vascular access in a randomized controlled trial with a standardized clinical and ultrasonographic one-year follow-up.
Natural evolution of severe central retinal vein occlusion with low visual acuity is very poor. A randomized clinical trial will compare troxerutin and platelet anti-aggregating agents (drug treatment) versus surgery and drug treatment. Surgery will include vitrectomy and radial optic neurotomy. The primary outcome will be vision measured 6 months after surgery.
This is a double blind, placebo controlled, add-on clinical trial, of levetiracetam efficacy and safety, in epilepsy cluster seizure. Efficacy is evaluated in the range of 2 to 24 hours after taking the tablet. If the patient has a seizure during this interval, he is considered as a non-respondent patient.
Suppression of stop mutations in the CFTR gene with parenteral gentamicin can be predicted in vitro and is associated with clinical benefit and significant modification of the CFTR-mediated chloride transport in nasal and sweat gland epithelium.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of micafungin in patients with proven invasive aspergillosis and who are refractory or intolerant to previous systemic antifungal therapy. To compare the efficacy and safety of the micafungin therapy with the active control arm
In France, 50% of hepatitis C virus carriers develop chronic clinical hepatitis, which may lead to cirrhosis and liver transplantation. Transplant infection by hepatitis C virus is constant after transplantation and recurrence causes chronic liver disease in 50 to 80% of cases. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of cyclosporin on C virological response. Patients included in the Transpeg 1 study and non-responder or with a recurrent disease will be switched from their tacrolimus therapy to cyclosporin, in association with a 1 year peginterferon alfa-2a / ribavirin bitherapy. Efficacy will be assessed by the percentage of patients with a negative qualitative PCR after 19 months of cyclosporin treatment.
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and those with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing renal replacement therapies show elevated serum phosphate levels which predispose them to cardiovascular calcifications and high risks of death from cardiovascular diseases. However, in certain patients hyperphosphatemia is not related to dialysis insufficiency, excessive daily dietary phosphorus intake or high serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels, suggesting that other mechanisms could be involved. Transgenic mice lacking the klotho gene showed a phenotype which resembles that of dialyzed ESRD patients, in the sense that they have hyperphosphatemia, vascular calcifications, and a short lifespan. This study will analyze whether functional polymorphisms or variants in the human klotho gene are associated with hyperphosphatemia in these patients.
To compare efficacy and safety of Sunitinib and Capecitabine in subjects with advanced breast cancer who failed both a taxane and an anthracycline chemotherapy regimen or failed with a taxane and for whom further anthracycline therapy is not indicated
