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.
Based on a 2017 US study that developed an algorithm for predicting independent walking recovery after stroke, we propose a prospective study to assess the validity and applicability of this algorithm in the majority of stroke patients with walking dependence and to confirm its performance. This study will therefore include adult patients, hospitalised in the Neurology Department of Caen University Hospital, and presenting a dependence on walking according to the FAC (Functional Ambulation Categories) scale in the first week after stroke. Treated by M. Pierre-Alexis Rousseau (medical intern for Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine), under the direction of Dr. Alexis Ruet, and in collaboration with the physiotherapists of the Neurology Department (Delphine Lebreton and Daphne Scelles), this study is planned to include patients in the initial phase of the stroke, and to continue to follow up the patients until 6 months after their inclusion. The aim of this work is to evaluate the performance of the TWIST algorithm in predicting walking recovery after stroke according to trunk control (using the Trunk Control Test) and hip extension strength (using the Medical Research Council score), and to analyse other factors that may potentially influence walking recovery (such as visual field amputation, neglect, ataxia, depression, undernutrition).
This is a prospective, observational, single-arm, multi-center registry of patients undergoing bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement with the Avalus valve. This prospective registry aims to examine the outcome and performance of surgical aortic valve replacement with the Avalus pericardial bioprosthesis.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of teclistamab with PVd/Kd.
Multicenter, prospective, open-labeled, 2-arm, randomized non-comparative (2:1) phase II trial assessing the efficacy of lurbinectedin in association with durvalumab
This is a platform study evaluating the safety and efficacy of multiple novel investigational products (IPs) that target unresectable or metastatic cutaneous melanoma in participants who have failed standard treatment.
The Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) affects joints mobility and leads pain, impacting the practice of physical activities. Adapted Physical Activities are rehabilitation methods increasingly used, but additional studies are needed to define the nature of the physical activity for patients with JIA. The ATHLETIQUE project aims to evaluate the impact of a program integrating APA sessions together with the wearing of a pedometer watch on disease activity of patients with JIA.
This study will test the safety of a drug called SGN-BB228 in participants with melanoma and other solid tumors that are hard to treat or have spread through the body. It will also study the side effects of this drug. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating the disease. This study will have 3 parts. Parts A and B of the study will find out how much SGN-BB228 should be given to participants. Part C will use the information from Parts A and B to see if SGN-BB228 is safe and if it works to treat solid tumor cancers.
Anesthesia and surgical guidelines recommend the administration of a surgical antibiotic prophylaxis for patients undergoing "clean" surgery. The prescribed antibiotic should target the bacteria most commonly found in surgical site infections (SSIs) and the duration of administration should not exceed 24 hours to minimize the ecological risk of bacterial resistance emergence. Guidelines provide a framework for the administration of surgical antibiotic prophylaxis but their effectiveness is regularly re-evaluated by measuring the rates of SSIs and the microorganisms responsible for infectious complications after surgery. The majority of interventions required the use of first or second generation cephalosporins as surgical antibiotic prophylaxis. For patients with allergy to beta-lactams, clindamycin and vancomycin are proposed as alternatives. In the patients with methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) colonization or if those at risk of developing MRSA-associated SSI (hospital ecology, previous antibiotic treatment), only vancomycin is recommended. Vancomycin pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics is complex and its tissue absorption varies according to the level of tissue inflammation. This is a difficult molecule to handle, exclusively administered via intravenous route. Linezolid is a synthetic antibiotic from the oxazolidinone class. By binding to the rRNA on the 30S and 50S ribosomal subunits, it inhibits the bacterial synthesis. It is therefore a bacteriostatic antibiotic approved for the treatment of both methicillin susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) and MRSA infections. It also covers a broad spectrum of Gram positive bacteria. Its pharmacokinetics allows rapid intravenous infusion, with rapid penetration into bone and soft tissue of the surgical site during hip surgery. A large Cochrane meta-analysis reported that linezolid was superior to vancomycin in skin infections, including MRSA infections, albeit with low quality evidence. We therefore hypothesized that linezolid can be used instead of vancomycin for beta-lactam allergic patients and patients at risk of MRSA-associated SSI in general surgery.
The objective of this study is to build a collection of biological samples from patients with brain tumors.
Post-menopausal osteoporosis and the resulting fractures are an important cause of disability and loss of independence. They also increase the risk of morbidity and mortality. Given potential side effects, hormone replacement therapy is no longer recommended for menopausal women with risk of becoming osteoporotic. The very significant decrease in the use of these treatments is suspected of contributing to a resurgence in the incidence of osteoporotic fractures, particularly in women before the age of 70. There is a need for prevention of osteoporosis.
