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.
A retrospective multi-center cohort study design was used to address the study objectives, using medical records obtained from three clinical centers in France.
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMX0035 over 108 weeks of open label treatment for participants previously enrolled in Study A35-004 (PHOENIX).
Endometriosis is defined as the presence of hormone-dependent endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. It is a chronic, painful and often disabling pathology during the normal activities of daily life. It affects 10% of women of childbearing age. It is therefore a real public health issue. The latest recommendations from the HAS and the CNGOF now recommend primary medical management of endometriosis in painful women who do not wish to become pregnant. It should be remembered that until very recently, the teams resigned themselves to carrying out surgical interventions in order to support the diagnosis (this is histological and requires a biopsy) and to treat the patient if possible. Sometimes, this treatment was not possible from the outset, as the lesions appeared to be inaccessible, and additional hormonal treatment was therefore required. The current concept is to propose to patients a first hormonal suppressive treatment before a possible surgery. This therapeutic de-escalation should be considered in the light of the physiopathology of endometriosis, which is essentially based on the ovarian cycles, and indirectly on menstruation, which must then be suspended. However, a good number of patients are initially reluctant to undergo any kind of hormonal therapy, either because they have had a bad experience with hormonal contraception (intolerance) or because of a fear related to the possible complications of hormonal therapy with third or fourth generation pills, for example (thromboembolic risk). There is also a health alert at present concerning macro progestins in relation to the risk of meningioma. Acceptance of the principle of instituting amenorrhea in order to relieve patients suffering from endometriosis requires prior information. In investigator's daily practice, they frequently deplore non-compliance, which is detrimental to the proper management of the disease. The effectiveness of hormonal treatment, which will institute a quiescence of hormonal activity, is not immediate. An analgesic and anti-inflammatory treatment is then added. Investigators propose to compare the compliance of three drug strategies: analgesics alone, hormone therapy alone or hormone therapy and analgesics.
Cancer affects mostly older adults. The development of Geriatric Oncology has greatly improved the management of older patients with the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessments (CGA) being conducted before cancer treatment. A CGA encompasses several dimensions such as comorbidities, but also functional, nutritional or cognitive domains. The International guidelines recommended establishing cooperation with pharmacists as part of the CGA in order to review prescriptions of older patients with cancer and to avoid adverse side effects of treatment. However, the CGA before starting oncological treatment offer is limited in France, especially in some regions which are less populated, or where access to medical centers are difficult. The main objective of our work is to evaluate the impact of telemedicine in geriatric oncology consultation of unexplained re-hospitalization rate at 3 months in the acute care unit. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the impact of telemedicine on unexplained re-hospitalization rate at 6 months, on the secondary toxicities, on the postoperative complications in patients treated surgically, on the overall survival and on the acceptance of the pharmaceutical recommendations by the physicians, but also the impact of telemedicine in medico-economic terms and the satisfaction of patients and oncologists benefiting from teleconsultation. It is a multicenter, prospective, randomized study involving 500 patients in 9 participating centers, including 6 peripheral hospitals. The experiment will be represented by the implementation of telemedicine in oncology centers where this expertise is not very available, allowing them to benefit from geriatric oncology teleconsultation and pharmaceutical tele-expertise carried out by three university hospitals. Patients recruited by oncologists, according to the inclusion criteria, will give their written consent to participate. Centers were randomized. In the control arm, patients will be treated according to the usual oncological management as defined for each type of cancer. In the interventional arm, patients will benefit from a CGA with a geriatric oncology teleconsultation as well as a pharmaceutical tele-expertise before the initiation of oncological treatment.
The primary objective of the study is to estimate the antitumor efficacy of nanrilkefusp alfa (SOT101) in combination with cetuximab in RAS wild-type colorectal cancer.
Sleep deprivation impacts performance of shift workers in health care. Anesthesiologists are a population at risk that endures stressful situations and changing working hours. The decreased performance could be the cause for undesirable events. Power-napping is known to be an efficient technique to mitigate the detrimental effects of sleep deprivation and is a feasible measure to implement in critical care units. Still there are few insights that measure the clinical relevance in the field. With the high-fidelity simulations this study is able to measure clinical performance and test for those effects. Therefore we propose a prospective, monocentric study to evaluate a power-napping protocol (less than 30min)
This monocentric methodological study aims at optimizing advanced MR sequences for image quality (reduced artefacts, signal to noise ratio, acquisition time, stability of quantitative measurements) on a new MR unit dedicated to research in clinical and cognitive neuroscience.
The STENDO process is a heart rate synchronized massage system initially validated for the treatment of lymphedema. It is a combination enveloping the lower limbs up to the abdomen. The massage system induces pressure from the ankles to the abdomen between each heartbeat. This technique would also allow an improvement of endothelial function by a greater release of nitric oxide. Thus the capacity for physical exercise is potentially improved. The use of STENDO has never been evaluated in COPD (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) where physical capacity is impaired with, in particular, the presence of endothelial dysfunction. STENDO may improve walking performance. If these hypotheses are validated, the STENDO could be positioned as a complement to the exercise rehabilitation strategies offered to symptomatic COPD patients.
This study will be conducted on pregnant patients for whom there is a suspicion of a chromosomal abnormality of the fetus. These are patients eligible for non-invasive prenatal screening as part of their usual pregnancy surveillance. This research aims to develop and validate a new method for non-invasive prenatal testing. This prospective collection study will allow the collection of biological samples necessary for the development, testing and validation of these new tests
A 12 months mono-center, descriptive study, to evaluate pain and predictive factors Following placement of percutaneous Radiologic gastrostomy (PRG). The primary objective is to evaluate the abdominal pain associated with percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy (PRG) placement.
