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.
Background : The supplementary motor area is the most common/preferential brain location of LGG. This area plays an important role in many motor and cognitive functions such as motor initiation, bimanual coordination and executive functions. Many studies describe the supplementary motor area syndrome resulting from lesions in this area. News managements for LGGs consisting in intraoperative mapping in awake patients reduce significantly neurological disorders and increase also the overall survival . However, the literature does not provide data concerning motor and cognitive functions in a long term and their consequences in the quality of life of patients. Objective : The aim of our research project is to identify whether there are some motor or neurocognitive deficit in the short and the long term in a population of patients who have medical story of LGG resection in the supplementary motor area.
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is characterized by progressive formation of renal cysts which ultimately lead to a loss of renal function. Tolvaptan (a V2R antagonist) is currently the only effective treatment for preserving renal function in ADPKD. However, side-effects such as polyuria limit its tolerability and thereby the therapeutic potential. This study will test whether co-administration with hydochlorothiazide can improve V2RA efficacy (slowing kidney function decline) and tolerability (quality of life) in ADPKD. Approximately 300 patients will be enrolled.
A first questionnaire - MODIFSPA conducted in 2014 - identified several environmental factors influencing spasticity in HSP: cold, fatigue, and especially physical activity. In order to improve the care of patients with HSP, The investigator team are looking to deepen the knowledge on physical exercises relieving spasticity as well as to better know the frequency of symptoms requiring additional medical care: fatigue and vesico-sphincter disorders. A new questionnaire was therefore created to collect additional information to optimize the care of patients with HSP.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer amongst women in terms of frequency, with more than 50 000 newly diagnosed cases per year in France. The average 5-year survival rate for women with breast cancer is around 85%. Surgical treatment by total mastectomy concerns around 30% of cases. For patients who have been treated for breast cancer by total mastectomy, secondary breast reconstructions are often carried out via excess abdominal fat flaps of DIEP type. Postoperative partial fat necrosis is a common complication of breast reconstruction. This necrosis is qualified as pathological when it is palpable or when there are symptoms leading to pain, deformation, or leakage. Necrosis occurs in the first 6 months after surgery. Diagnosis is carried out by the detection of a nodule of fat necrosis measuring at least 5 mm on the ultrasound. Partial flat necrosis results from ischemia reperfusion (IR) to the fat tissues during reconstruction. IR leads to inflammatory lesions, edema, capillary occlusion that can lead to tissue necrosis. The deleterious impact of IR has been shown on the organs (liver, kidney) on muscular, cutaneous and adipose tissues in humans and animals. Ischaemic preconditioning is a procedure used in organ transplant surgery, allowing a better tolerance of the graft for ischemia reperfusion, without further complications. It is used in usual practice for kidney or liver transplants; short cycles of ischemia reperfusion are carried out on the organ pedicle before harvesting using cold ischemia (out of the donor's body) pre-transplant. Ischaemic preconditioning before reconstruction has been studied in animal models but not in human reconstruction surgery, although it seems to be beneficial. For patients undergoing total mastectomy after being diagnosed with breast cancer, we hypothesize that ischaemic preconditioning, usually used for organ transplants, could decrease adipose tissue lesions caused by ischemia reperfusion after breast reconstruction with DIEP (deep inferior epigastric perforator) flaps.
in this study, the investigators aim to describe the effects of highflow nasal canulae oxygen therapy (HFNC) on respiratory muscle function during exercise in patients with fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILD) during an endurance test
The project aims to evaluate the glycaemic index of breads from different types of flour. In particular, we aim to understand the glycaemic and insulin responses as well as satiety and sensory profiles of the products.
The EXDECHO study is the first randomized study evaluating the effect of four body positions on diaphragmatic excursion in obese patients by ultrasound. The investigators suppose that the course of the right diaphragmatic hemicupola would be increased by an increasingly horizontal position (gradual increase in the diaphragmatic excursion from standing to lying down). If this hypothesis is confirmed, kinesitherapists will have more informed positioning choices to improve the effectiveness of respiratory rehabilitation.
This study aims to describe a dose-effect relationship of morphine alone and morphine and midazolam administered as continuous infusion in neonates hospitalized in Neonatal intensive care unit and undergoing mechanical ventilation, through PKPD modelling.
This is a Phase 2/3, multiregional, two-arm, double-blind, randomized, active (standard-of-care)-controlled study of the efficacy and safety of tividenofusp alfa (DNL310), an investigational central nervous system (CNS)-penetrant enzyme-replacement therapy (ERT) for mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II). Participants may also qualify to enter an open-label treatment phase with DNL310 or idursulfase based on pre-specified criteria.
The goal of this clinical study is test how well the study drug, axicabtagene ciloleucel, works in participants with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma
