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.
An observational study to describe the effectiveness, safety, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in participants with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in France receiving filgotinib in real-world setting.
This study is open to adults with Progressive Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Diseases (PF-ILDs). People who have a form of PF-ILD other than Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) can join the study. If they already take nintedanib, they can continue treatment throughout the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1015550 helps people with PF-ILD. Participants are put into 3 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in 2 groups take different doses of BI 1015550 as tablets twice a day. Participants in the placebo group take placebo tablets twice a day. Placebo tablets look like BI 1015550 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for up to two and a half years. During the first year, they visit the study site 10 times. Afterwards, they visit the study site every 3 months. The doctors regularly test participants' lung function. The results of the lung function tests are compared between the groups. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This study is open to adults with a lung disease called Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). People can join the study if they are 40 years or older. If they already take nintedanib or pirfenidone for their IPF, they can continue treatment throughout the study.

The aim of this study is to show the efficiency of a new infant formula containing fiber on the management of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with an open-label extension (OLE).
The primary objective of this study is to verify the clinical benefit of monthly doses of aducanumab in slowing cognitive and functional impairment as measured by changes in the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) score as compared with placebo in participants with early Alzheimer's disease.
In patients on maintenance hemodialysis (HD), protein energy wasting (PEW) defined as loss of muscle mass and fuel reserves of the body is frequent and associated with severe morbidity and mortality. Several factors, including inflammation, oxidative stress, metabolic disorders, loss of nutrients, diabetes, retention of middle molecule uremic toxins and dialysis procedure contribute to PEW. It has been previously reported that intensive HD treatments such as short daily and nocturnal HD may improve nutritional parameters. Moreover, post-dilution Online hemodiafiltration (OL-HDF) may also improve PEW by preserving lean body mass evaluated by bioimpedance analysis (BIA) probably through decreased inflammation, stimulation of appetite and better removal of uremic toxins. The recently developed medium cut-off dialyzer (MCO) in HD has demonstrated efficient depuration of middle uremic toxins as compared to high flux HD (HF-HD), similar to that of OL-HDF. Both MCO-HD and OL-HDF may exert beneficial effects on PEW, since they increase removal of higher weight middle molecules, which mostly encompass proteins related to inflammation and PEW in the uremic milieu
Meso-Immune is a retrospective study to assess the efficacy and safety of the combination of Nivolumab and Ipilimumab used in first-line treatment of adult patients with unresectable Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM). This combination of treatments has been approved in Europe since June 2021 based on the results of the CheckMate 743 study. In France, the combination is not yet reimbursed for this population of patients. However, since April 01, 2021, newly diagnosed unresectable MPM patients may be treated with this combination via an early access program. Meso-Immune study targets these patients included in the early access program with the objective to provide additional results to the CheckMate 743 study and confirm the benefit of using this combination in first-line of treatment in this category of patients. Total study duration will cover 48 months with an inclusion period of 12 months and a follow-up until 3 years. Patients will be recruited retrospectively starting April 01, 2021 until April 01, 2022. Meso-Immune study will be proposed to all the GFPC centers that have already included patients in the early access program and other centers wishing to participate, in order to analyze a minimum of 150 patients. The total number of sites is evaluated at around 120. The principal investigator in each center will identify the patients eligible for the Meso-Immune study and will inform them on the study according to the local regulations. Patient follow-up will be pursued regularly, in in-patient and out-patient clinics, according to the usual practices of the physicians in each participating center. Reevaluation workups will be pursued according to the practices of each center. The information related to Patient characteristics, MPM characteristics, Treatment characteristics, Disease progression, Rebiopsy, Post treatments, Adverse events, Date and cause of death, Date of last news will be recorded in electronic case-report forms (eCRF). Qualitative variables will be presented descriptively in the principal analysis.
Morbid obesity has become a common condition and there is no effective drug that is able to induce a sustained weight loss. Currently bariatric surgery remains the only effective means that is able to lead to long term sustained weight loss. Oxytocin is a hormone secreted by the hypophysis that regulates negatively the adipogenesis and positively the osteogenesis. Oxytocin also regulates appetite and its role in weight loss in humans has not been investigated so far. The aim of the present study is to elucidate whether plasma levels of oxytocin and sleeve gastrectomy induced weight loss are correlated in pre-menopausal morbidly obese women.
Between 16% and 22% of type 1 diabetic patients present a clinical and biological profile of insulin resistance favored by a family history of type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome. They constitute a group of patients with "double diabetes" since they have both true type 1 diabetes and inherited insulin resistance, typical of type 2 diabetes. For several years, GLP1 agonists have been successfully used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, leading to very significant improvements in glycemic control and weight loss. Because of the insulin-sensitizing power of GLP1 agonists, the investigators hypothesize that they could reduce insulin resistance in patients with "double diabetes" and thus improve their glycemic control. The investigators propose to use in this study semaglutide, the most recent and most potent GLP1 agonist (superiority demonstrated compared to exenatide LP and dulaglutide) and administered as a weekly subcutaneous injection (in contrast to liraglutide administered daily).
