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.
Multicenter, multinational, double-blind, randomized (2:1), placebo-controlled Phase III study to investigate the efficacy and safety of 100 mg FAB122 once daily as oral formulation in ALS patients.
There are 2 types of surgical procedures to remove the appendix : open appendectomy or laparoscopic appendectomy. About 60000 appendectomies are performed every year in France. Early diagnosis of acute appendicitis is essential to prevent the risk of disease progression, leading to complicated appendicitis and an increased risk for mortality. Data regarding appendicitis management in the literature are numerous. However, the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the management of those patients has led to a decrease in the number of visits for acute appendicitis (ER), but a higher proportion of complicated appendicitis, probably due to the patient's delayed decision to go to emergency department at the onset of clinical symptoms. Complicated appendicitis may also lead to an overuse of antibiotics, a longer hospital stay, and a higher global cost for the health system. This aim of this study was to evaluate whether this hypothesis was valid for the regional NANCY-METZ area (CHR Metz and CHRU Nancy). The main research hypothesis was that the pandemic caused by SARS-COVID 19 was significantly linked to an increased incidence of perioperative complications in patients who underwent an appendectomy for acute appendicitis in this region (North-east part of France).
The study investigators hypothesize that SARS-Cov2 infection alters the composition of the digestive microbiota and its functionality, resulting in changes in intestinal permeability and consequently in microbial digestive translocation. These changes may correlate with the magnitude of the SARS-CoV-2 viral load in the gastrointestinal tract and may have an impact on the clinical manifestations and evolvability of COVID-19.
Phase 1b study to assess the combination of ARV-110 and abiraterone in patients with metastatic prostate cancer with rising PSA values on abiraterone.
Ano-perineal (or ano-rectal) fistulas are a frequent and major complication of Crohn's disease. Indeed, they indicate a greater severity of the disease. In addition, they have a major impact on the quality of life of patients. Finally, these fistulas are difficult to cure, especially when they are complex. Indeed, medical treatment with anti-TNF drugs can only cure them in one third of cases. Various obturation treatments have been proposed in addition to medical treatment such as advancement flap, injection of biological glue, placement of a plug, intersphincter ligation of the fistulous path or laser but with still insufficient healing rates. The injection of mesenchymal stem cells of adipose origin was first proposed for this indication in 2003. Since then, numerous studies have been published on the subject. Most importantly, an international multicenter randomized double-blind phase 3 controlled trial demonstrated the superiority of allogeneic stem cells over placebo with a therapeutic effect maintained at one year follow-up. The trial involved selected patients with Crohn's disease and one or more complex ano-perineal fistulas refractory to conventional treatments. This treatment has a high cost and its practical modalities are constraining (manufacturing, delivery, constrained time between the factory and the injection). However, this study is the first to have demonstrated in such a rigorous way the effectiveness of a local treatment on complex ano-perineal fistulas of Crohn's disease. These allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells have therefore been granted marketing authorization in Europe and have been commercialized in several European countries including France during the summer of 2020 under the trade name ALOFISEL®. They are indicated for complex ano-perineal fistulas that have not responded to at least one conventional biological treatment, in the context of inactive or less active Crohn's disease. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the rate of "deep" remission (i.e. clinical and radiological) at 12 months of follow-up in the first patients treated in France with ALOFISIEL® after its marketing. The evaluation is performed at 12 months because it seems that the result is consolidated after this period.
Please note that Phase 1/2 (HV & MAD) cohort - recruitment is completed and Phase 3 Component (THRIVE) - is actively recruiting. The investigational drug, VRDN-001, is a monoclonal antibody that inhibits the activity of a cell surface receptor called insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R). Inhibition of IGF-1R may help to reduce the inflammation and associated tissue swelling that occurs in patients with thyroid eye disease (TED). This clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (the concentration of drug in the blood over time) of VRDN-001 in healthy volunteers and in patients with TED. Study participants with TED will also be evaluated over time for changes in their signs and symptoms of TED compared to their baseline measurements.
This is a Phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of PHE885, a BCMA-directed CAR-T cell therapy, manufactured with a new process. The CAR-T cell therapy will be investigated as a single agent in relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma
This is a phase 3 open-label multicenter extension study designed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of Lonapegsomatropin administered once-weekly. The study participants are adults (males and females) with confirmed growth hormone deficiency (GHD) having completed the treatment period in study TCH-306 (foresiGHt).
This study will evaluate the effect of adding abemaciclib to fulvestrant for the treatment of hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) breast cancer that progressed or recurred after previous treatment with a type of drug known as a CDK4/6 inhibitor and endocrine therapy. Participation could last up to 5 years, depending on how you and your tumor respond.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary clinical activity of CC-95251 alone and in combination with antineoplastic agents in participants with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia and relapsed or refractory and treatment-naive higher risk melodysplastic syndromes.
