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.
Type II diabetes is a known risk factor for heart failure, particularly through the progressive development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Cardiac metabolic parameters, including myocardial steatosis and epicardial fat, are altered in diabetic patients. The development of new anti-diabetics (incretins) has demonstrated protective cardiovascular effects independent of effects on glycemic control for the first time in the history of these therapies. Thus Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonists improve the recovery of cardiac function after a heart attack and decrease atheromatous processes. It has also been demonstrated in a diabetic rat model that the administration of Liraglutide, a GLP-1 agonist, leads to normalization of myocardial steatosis associated with beneficial cardiac molecular remodeling involving pro-apoptotic, oxidative and metabolic processes. These beneficial cardiovascular effects were observed in the absence of any changes in blood glucose, insulin levels or body weight.
To investigate the anti-pruritic efficacy and safety of Nalbuphine Extended Release (ER) (NAL ER) tablets in Prurigo Nodularis. Subjects will be randomized to NAL ER (or matching placebo) with the primary endpoint evaluation at Week 14. During the open label extension, subjects who received NAL ER will continue on NAL ER and subjects who received placebo will crossover to NAL ER.
The main purpose of this study is to assess preliminary efficacy and safety of LYS006 in patients with moderate to severe inflammatory acne and to determine if LYS006 has an adequate clinical profile for further clinical development.
Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (1H-MRS) is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique. It allows the quantification of cerebral metabolite concentrations. Currently, MRS-1H is used regardless of the examination schedule. However, it is not possible to say if the brain metabolite concentrations are stable over 24 hours. Thus, the main objective was to study the diurnal variation of cerebral metabolite concentrations in 1H-MRS in healthy subjects. Moreover, the investigators also want to investigate the association between choline concentrations (Cho, parameter reflecting membrane metabolism) in 1H-MRS and fractional anisotropy (AF) values, obtained with the diffusion tensor imaging sequence (DTI), in the white matter of the centrum ovale. The results obtained from this objective will allow to obtain reference values of an estimate of the association between Cho concentrations and AF values in healthy subjects. These data are intended to improve the diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients with neurological pathologies.
The study aims to assess antibody persistence induced by Spirolept® vaccination in subjects who received at least 4 doses (2 doses two weeks apart and 2 booster doses) and no more than a total of 8 doses (2 doses two weeks apart and 6 booster doses).
The purpose of the study is to determine whether neopterin can be dosed in the fluid of the eye's anterior chamber for patient with non-inflammatory and non-infectious ophthalmic pathology.
Comparison of quality image with a new LEHRS GE collimator vs standard LEHR Siemens collimator on bone scintigraphy.
This study is an open label, multicenter phase 2 study. The primary objective of the study is to determine the efficacy of brentuximab vedotin in patients treated by gemcitabine for relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma in term of overall response rate assessed after 4 cycles of treatment according to the international response criteria for malignant lymphoma (Lugano Classification 2014 - CT-Based Response).
Restrictive anorexia nervosa and TOCs are psychiatric diseases which shares a common pathophysiological substrate We hypothesize that anorexia patients and patients with OCD have structural and functional changes in the accumbofrontal tract. The main objective of this study will be to compare the structure and the connectivity of this tract in MRI with diffusion sequences (DTI tractography) and resting-state, in 3 distinct populations of anorexic patients, patients with OCD and healthy patients. The role of the accumbo-frontal tract in the cortico-striato-hypothalamo-cortical circuit seems to be established. DTI tractography will allow the measurement of functional anisotropy (FA), a parameter that evaluates the diffusion of water molecules along the white matter fibers, and therefore the potential alteration of the studied tract. Resting state sequences will allow to estimate the BOLD signal and the functionality of the tract.
Study A011-09 is designed to assesses the efficacy and safety of sotatercept (ACE-011) relative to placebo in adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Eligible participants will receive study treatment for 24 weeks during the placebo-controlled treatment period, and then will be eligible to enroll into a 30-month extension period during which all participants will receive sotatercept. All treated patients will also undergo a follow-up period after last study drug treatment.
