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 objective of the study is to validate a screening tool for auditory processing disorder in children of 7 to 13 years old. This screening tool was created based on literature and combines a questionnaire and a mini-battery of tests composed of verbal and nonverbal assessments.
Biological collection (blood sample) associated with clinical data from Covid-19 patients
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate an association between a biological pattern of dysregulation of the HPA axis and mental disorders in children exposed to early life stress.
Emergence of Covid-19 virus is associated with high frequency of extremely severe clinical pictures, with minor signs of CNS impairment (e.g. anosmia, headache). Since neurotropism is a common feature of coronavirus infection in animals, the investigators examine if indirect signs of CNS lesion are observed in association with severe Covid-19 infection.
In November 2019, Wuhan city in China, became the center of an outbreak of pneumonia due to a novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which disease was named coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19) in February, 2020. The COVID19 is much more dangerous for people over 60 with a death rate of 3.6% after 60, 8.0% after 70 and 14.8% after 80 -and according to our Italian colleagues over 20% after 90- against 2.3% in the general population. The elderly patients who died most often had multiple comorbidities and in particular: cardiovascular disease (10.5% mortality), diabetes (7.3%), chronic respiratory disease (6.3%) and hypertension (6%). These elderly patients with COVID19 are therefore very fragile and require treatment that fights the virus but is also adapted to their state of health and age. Most of current therapeutic trials worldwide exclude people aged over 75 years, which is precisely the age group affected by COVID19. We therefore propose to carry out a therapeutic trial specific to the elderly with drugs at doses that are bearable for these patients. Using the WHO, clinicaltrial, pubmed and the Chinese CCDC/CHCTR websites to find the better drugs adapted to elderly people, we decided after concertation between infectiologists and geriatricians to do a four arms clinical trial during two weeks twice a day: Hydroxychloroquine 200mg, Telmisartan 40mg, Azithromycin 250mg and standard care. We therefore hypothesize that one or more of these treatments may have a beneficial effect in controlling COVID19, without major and repeated side effects in elderly patients.
The drug that will be investigated in the study is an antibody, GEN3009. Since this is the first study of GEN3009 in humans, the main purpose is to evaluate safety. Besides safety, the study will determine the recommended GEN3009 dose to be tested in a larger group of patients and assess preliminary clinical activity of GEN3009. GEN3009 will be studied in a broad group of cancer patients, having different kinds of lymphomas. All patients will get GEN3009 either as a single treatment (monotherapy) or in combination with another antibody-candidate for treatment of cancer in the blood. The study consists of two parts: Part 1 tests increasing doses of GEN3009 ("escalation"), followed by Part 2 which tests the recommended GEN3009 dose from Part 1 ("expansion").
Given the possible risks and complications of a comorbidity between psychiatric disorder and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), it seems particularly important to specify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in patients with psychiatric disorders and suspected of infection, hospitalized in a specific unit, at the psychiatric, somatic and pharmacological level.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the interest and the workability of ECG teletranmission in EHPAD in Île-de-France. ECG for the elderly is beneficial to detect or monitor cardiovascular disease.
This study plans to learn more about the effects of Dornase Alfa in COVID19 (coronavirus disease of 2019) patients, the medical condition caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Dornase Alfa is a FDA-approved drug for the treatment of cystic fibrosis, which facilitates mucus clearance by cutting apart neutrophil-derived extracellular double-stranded DNA. This study intends to define the impact of aerosolized intra-tracheal Dornase Alfa administration on the severity and progression of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in COVID-19 patients. This drug might make lung mucus thinner and looser, promoting improved clearance of secretions and reduce extracellular double-stranded DNA-induced hyperinflammation in alveoli, preventing further damage to the lungs. The study will recruit mechanically ventilated patients hospitalized in ICU who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 and meet ARDS criteria. It is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicentric, open-label clinical trial. The goal is to recruit 100 patients.
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the effects of Atomoxetine, a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, on impulsivity in patients with Tourette's syndrome.
