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 determine if one drug is superior to another with regard to safety and the preservation of renal function after a kidney transplant.
This is a prospective, randomized, sequential, international, multicentric, 2-arm, non-comparative, open-label, 2-stage clinical study to determine disease response rates to Velcade™ therapy in subjects who have relapsed or refractory follicular B-cell lymphoma. Qualitative comparisons of the 2 treatment arms based on safety, efficacy and dosing convenience will be made in order to recommend a dose schedule for further clinical study.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vindesine, bleomycin, and prednisone (ACVBP) plus rituximab in comparison to cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone (CHOP) plus rituximab in patients aged from 60 to 65 years with non-previously treated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma as measured by the event-free survival. The goal is to obtain a 10% increase of event-free survival at 3 years.
The Torcetrapib project was terminated on December 2, 2006 due to safety findings. To look at ultrasound images taken in the carotid arteries and to look at various lipids in the blood of people with mixed hyperlipidemia
The primary objective of this study is to compare the duration of survival between patients receiving docetaxel in combination with the GVAX® vaccine for prostate cancer versus patients receiving docetaxel and prednisone treatment in patients with prostate cancer who no longer respond to hormone therapy, who have documented metastases with pain. Patients may have had up to one prior non-taxane chemotherapy treatment.
Data from the literature have suggested that a longer time of thrombolysis might be more effective in ischemic stroke. We, the investigators at Hospices Civils de Lyon, have designed a randomized protocol to test this hypothesis. Moreover, the therapeutic window is 7 hours. Rt-PA (alteplase) is injected intravenously in the 2 arms of the study for a duration of 60 minutes in the arm with a "classical dose" and 90 minutes in the arm with a "low dose-longer infusion". This is a study of the outcome at 90 days.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of the drug, HuMax-CD4, in patients with mycosis fungoides(MF) and sezary syndrome who are intolerant to or do not respond to treatment with Targretin® and one other standard therapy.
This is a phase III trial comparing early tracheotomy versus prolonged endotracheal intubation in intensive care unit patients needing prolonged ventilatory support.
This is a phase II monocentric study of oxaliplatin (Ox) in combination with gemcitabine (Gem; GEMOX) in patients (pts) with advanced/metastatic transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the urothelial tract.
Most treatment procedures in AIDS-related lymphomas disclose a relatively poor outcome for patients with low response rates, high number of relapses and AIDS events. The addition of rituximab to the standard regimen - CHOP could improve the outcome of these patients. The aim of the trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of rituximab when added to the CHOP regimen in patients with newly diagnosed AIDS-related non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
