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.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, several vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna, Astrazeneca, Janssen) have been developed and are being administered to millions of people in France and billions around the world through massive vaccination programs. The Janssen vaccine is the fourth COVID-19 vaccine to be licensed in Europe. It received a European marketing authorization for all adults, without age limit, on March 11, 2021. Janssen's vaccine is a viral non replicating vector (adenovirus) vaccine targeting the Spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It differs from currently available vaccines in that it is a single-dose regimen with significant protection at 28 days post-injection. Monitoring of the durability of the immune response is essential to assess the need for a booster vaccination. Insufficient data are available in the adult population regarding the evolution of the immune response. This point seems to be even more important in the elderly. Indeed, their immune system declines with age, leading to a greater susceptibility to infectious diseases and a weaker response to vaccination. This is called immunosenescence. Vaccination in this population is essential to avoid severe COVID-19 cases, since older people are particularly at risk. Two CoviCompare studies with two licensed vaccines messenger RNA vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna) are underway to evaluate the immune response to each vaccine according to age. We propose to conduct a study to evaluate the immunogenicity of the Janssen vaccine in different age groups with long-term follow-up. This will allow determining the need of a booster. A common battery of in vitro and ex vivo immuno-monitoring tests has been set up to systematically assess the acquisition of humoral and cellular immunity over time over a period of 24 months following vaccination in the CoviCompare project. This trial, part of the CoviCompare project will use the same immunomonitoring set. This will also allow comparison of the immune response to different vaccines in subjects of different age in order to determine in this at risk population the better vaccination schedules. The only difference between this trial and the other 2 trials of the CoviCompare project is that adults aged 18-45 will not be concerned here, because the adenovirus vaccine is not recommended for this age group in France
IMPAHCT: Inhaled iMatinib Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Clinical Trial is a Phase 2b/Phase 3 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AV-101 (dry powder inhaled imatinib) in patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH). The Phase 2b part of the study will assess three doses to establish an optimal dose for the Phase 3 part of the study. The Phase 2b primary endpoint will be the placebo corrected change in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). The Phase 3 primary endpoint will be the placebo corrected change in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) after 24 weeks of treatment.
An Open Label Study to Evaluate the Long-term Safety and Efficacy of Odevixibat (A4250) in Patients with Alagille Syndrome (ASSERT-EXT)
HZNP-HZN-825-303 (HARBOR) comprises of 2 parts. Part 1 (Core Phase) is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, repeat-dose, multicenter trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of HZN-825 in participants with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). Part 2 (Extension Phase) is an optional, open-label, repeat-dose, multicenter extension of the Core Phase. The trial will include up to an 8-week Screening Period and a 52-week Double-blind Treatment Period in the Core Phase and 52 weeks of open-label HZN-825 treatment in the Extension Phase. During the Core Phase, participants will be screened within 8 weeks prior to the baseline (Day 1) Visit. Approximately 135 participants who meet the trial eligibility criteria will be randomly assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio on Day 1 to receive HZN-825 300 mg QD, HZN-825 300 mg BID or matching placebo orally for 52 weeks using the following 2 stratification factors: 1. Concomitant use of approved IPF therapy (i.e., nintedanib or pirfenidone): yes or no 2. Forced vital capacity (FVC) % predicted at Baseline: ≥70% or <70% Participants who complete the 52-week Double blind Treatment Period of the Core Phase of the trial will be invited to extend their participation in the 52-week Extension Phase of the trial.
Stent treatment of thoracic aortic pathologies, including aneurysms, pseudo-aneurysms, dissections, intramural hematomas, penetrating ulcers and ruptures of the isthmus, seems to provide a likely benefit compared to surgery in terms of surgical mortality and severe morbidity. However, the data concerning the long-term fate of these stents are insufficient. For this reason, the French National Health Authority (HAS) requests a 5-year follow-up in relation to the renewal of insurance reimbursement for these stent-grafts. Therefore, this long-term observational study has been set up.
Study CKJX839B12302 is a pivotal Phase III trial to evaluate the benefits of inclisiran on major adverse cardiovascular (MACE) events in participants with established cardiovascular disease (CVD).
The main objective of this study is to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of palovarotene in adult and paediatric participants with FOP. The aim of the study is also to ensure treatment continuity to participants who have completed one of the parent studies (Study PVO-1A-301, Study PVO-1A-202 and Study PVO-1A-204) and who, in the investigator's judgement, may benefit from palovarotene therapy.
BKvirus associated nephropathy (BKvAN) is a major complication in kidney transplantation. Due to BKvirus (BKv) intra-graft replication, BKvAN affects nearly 10% of patients and causes graft loss in more than 50% of cases. Without current antiviral therapy, the treatment consists of minimizing immunosuppression, secondarily exposing the patient to a graft rejection risk. Impaired BKv specific T cell response plays a crucial role in the BKvAN pathophysiology. Several teams, including ours, have demonstrated a profound impairment of BKv specific T cell response during BKvAN. Immunovirological monitoring allows an individual assessment of viral reactivation risk based on the anti-viral immune response. Our group has developed the NEPHROVIR method. This non-invasive biological method allows the identification of BKvAN risk level. The aim of this work is to evaluate, by the NEPHROVIR method, the risk to develop a BKvAN with renal impairment in kidney transplant recipients with sustained BKv viremia. The investigators propose the BK-VIR study. This is a prospective multicentric study involving 100 kidney transplant recipients with sustained BKv viremia. The aim of this work is to evaluate the NEPHROVIR method as an innovative immunovirological surveillance method for predicting the risk of BKvAN occurrence. The characterization of individual BKvAN risk level could help in the individualized follow-up and management of immunosuppression in patients. The long-term objective would be to diagnose very early, or even anticipate, the occurrence of BKvAN and to allow early readjustment of the immunosuppressive treatment.
