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.
The main objective will be to evaluate the type of care performed and the main reasons for consulting patients for an odontological emergency in order to better adapt to the flow and expectations of patients.
The study investigators hypothesize that the intervention of case managers specifically trained in case management of early psychosis will change the paradigm of care of a first psychotic episode from the current organization of the care system. Indeed, the creation of specific services for emerging psychotic disorders cannot easily be generalized throughout the country and requires specific funding. The intervention of case managers according to the recommendations of good practices will make it possible to propose the fundamental principles of early intervention to young patients and their families on a large scale throughout the territory, namely: personalized and proactive accompaniment, psycho-education of the pathology and treatments, involvement and support of the families, and support for socio-professional reintegration
Prospective, multicenter, comparative, randomized placebo-controlled Phase III trial - patients with hormone-naïve prostate cancer and pelvic lymph nodes metastases
The aim of this study is to explore the quality of life of cancer patients, in particular women operated on breast cancer, throughout their care journey, taking into account their access to supportive oncological care within and outside the establishment care.
This study will focus on a large cohort of multiplex families, to precisely identify candidate genes. The fact of have a large database (fifty families, collected by the principal investigator for more than two decades), will contribute to the discovery of genes of interest. It will also allow testing for the presence or absence of mutations found in other cohorts in previous studies. The main objective of this study is to identify genetic abnormalities associated with the presence and severity of idiopathic scoliosis, in families of scoliosis.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of treatment combinations in cancer immunotherapy (CIT)-naive participants with resectable Stage III melanoma (Cohort 1) and in participants with Stage IV melanoma (Cohort 2). The study is designed with the flexibility to open new treatment arms as new treatments become available, close existing treatment arms that demonstrate minimal clinical activity or unacceptable toxicity, and modify the participant population.
The primary objective is to compare pembrolizumab plus paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab to placebo plus paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab, with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 as assessed by the investigator. The hypotheses are that pembrolizumab plus paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab is superior to placebo plus paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab, with respect to PFS per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the investigator for participants with programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) positive tumors (Combined Positive Score [CPS] ≥1) and that pembrolizumab plus paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab is superior to placebo plus paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab, with respect to PFS per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the investigator for all participants.
Curative management of locally resectable invasive adenocarcinomas located in the cephalic region of the pancreas (pancreas, duodenum and ampulla of Vater) requires a pancreaticoduodenectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. Pancreaticoduodenectomy is a major surgery that often leads to major complications including approximately 20% of relevant clinical postoperative pancreatic fistula. Postoperative complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy can lead to early discontinuation of the complete oncologic strategy, i.e., chemotherapy for malignancy is performed in only about a third of patients who experienced a grade C fistula. A total pancreatectomy rather than a pancreaticoduodenectomy is an alternative procedure that involves the complete and definitive resection of all pancreatic tissue, eliminating any risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula but is associated with unavoidable endocrine insufficiency and potentially severe metabolic complications, such as "brittle diabetes". Total Pancreatectomy following by intraportal Islet AutoTransplantation (TPIAT) can prevent "brittle diabetes" and improve the quality of life. The endocrine islets can be isolated from the pancreatic surgical specimen with standardized procedures and transplanted in the liver through intraportal infusion, in absence of immunosuppression and allow adequate control of glucose metabolism with a reduced need for exogenous insulin and an effective graft function in 70% of cases at 3 years Thereby, the investigators hypothesize that total pancreatectomy with intraportal Islet autotransplantation rather than classical pancreaticuduodenectomy, in patients with high-risk of postoperative fistula will increase the rate of complete access to adjuvant chemotherapy, while maintaining an adequate metabolic control.
Drug addiction to psychoactive substances, widely consumed in France, represents a major public health issue. The three main motivations identified for the consumption of psychostimulants would be self-medication, the party aspect and the improvement of school performance. Students of medicine and pharmacy are a population exposed to academic and professional stress, vulnerable to health problems and psycho-social disorders (anxiety, depression), with direct access to many drugs at their workplace. Almost a third of these students declared to consume these products to improve their cognitive performance, while a recent study showed that they take them instead to manage their stress and sleep. However, no study has characterized all the different uses of psychoactive drugs (PAD) in this population, nor the motivations for consumption, while an analysis of motives would help to develop better screening and prevention strategies. The main objective of the research is to characterize the motivations for PAD consumption among students of medicine and pharmacy in France. The most represented motives will be analyzed on the questionnaire of motivations for consumption (threshold frequency ≥20%). The secondary objectives are to identify the risk factors linked to the individual, to the environment and to drugs in students with PAD use disorders regardless of their motivation and in those using to improve their performance.
Intractable high intracranial pressures (ICP) are associated with poor functional outcomes and mortality, so the SCALPEL trials aims to evaluate the effect of decompressive craniectomy against decompressive laparotomy to lower those pressures in diffuse TBI. The primary outcome measure for that evaluation is functional outcome after 12 months on the extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS-E).
