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 objective is to diagnose earlier and more precisely the occurrence of a weakness neuromuscular syndrome at the end of intensive care, or within 28 days if the stay is longer than 28 days. The amyotrophy has been shown to be proportional to muscle strength in healthy subjects. The amyotrophy can be reliably evaluated by measuring the cross-sectional area of the right femoral muscle. The hypothesis is that amyotrophy measured by muscle ultrasound can allow an early and reliable diagnosis of neuromuscular weakness syndrome (NMWS), even though the measurement of the MRC score (the Gold Standard), has shown its limitations in intensive care in terms of reliability and delayed diagnosis. Moreover, this syndrome is associated with a loss of functionality and a deterioration of long-term quality of life. One of the objectives is thus to determine if the muscular ultrasound allows a prediction of the occurrence of these alterations far from the intensive care. Early rehabilitation has shown a benefit on mortality, duration of stay, mechanical ventilation and on functional alteration after intensive care. This is why an earlier and more precise means of diagnostic of this pathology is searched. The target population is therefore patients from 18 to 80 years hospitalized in intensive care for prolonged stay (> 5 days), and prolonged ventilation (> 48H).
The main purpose of this study was to see how GLPG1690 works together with the current standard treatment on your lung function and IPF disease in general. The study also investigated how well GLPG1690 is tolerated (for example if you get any side effects while on study drug).
Ischemic acute tubular necrosis (ATN) is one of the main cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in intensive care units (ICU). Sepsis and cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB) are major providers. There is no validated tool to predict the evolution of AKI is ICU. Furosemide Stress Test (FST) may predict evolution of ATN-related AKI outside ICU in terms of progressive AKI, need for renal replacement therapy (RRT) or inpatient mortality with improved performance comparing to biomarkers. FST has not been validated in a prospective cohort in ICU in the settings of ischemic ATN. FURTHER aim to determine whether FST would be a useful tool to identify patients with slight to moderate AKI (KDIGO stage 1 and 2) who will evolve towards need for RRT following AKIKI (The Artificial Kidney Initiation in Kidney Injury ) delayed initiation criteria.
The main objective of this study is to show that the repeated (twice-daily) measurement of expired CO during hospitalization helps reduce smoking.
Vedolizumab (VDZ) is a monoclonal antibody that binds to the heterodimer α4β7 integrin and which has shown its efficacy in Ulcerative Colitis (UC) by inducing and maintaining clinical response/remission. The French marketing authorization was obtained for Ulcerative Colitis in patients in failure with anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor (anti-TNF) agents. In the pivotal study, correlation between drug levels and clinical response during induction and maintenance therapy were reported. Moreover, in 3.7% of cases, anti-vedolizumab antibodies were reported during the time-course and 1% had samples that were persistently positive. Up to now, data on the pharmacologic VDZ parameters are scarce and the relationships as well as the predictive value of the measurement of VDZ concentrations and VDZ monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) during the induction and maintenance phases remains unknown. It could be of paramount interest to early identify UC patients under VDZ who will be responders to VDZ induction and to identify those who will achieve clinical remission under maintenance therapy with VDZ.
This was a Phase II, multi-center, open label, single dose study in patients with tumor types known to overexpress Gastrin-Releasing Peptide Receptor (GRPR), including breast, prostate, colorectal, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and Small-Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC).
This study will include two parts: - In the phase I part: safety will be assessed in consecutive cohorts of 3 to 6 patients at increasing doses of TG6002 in combination with oral flucytosine (5-FC) in patients with advanced gastro-intestinal (GI) tumors. - In the phase IIa part: evaluation of efficacy and further evaluation of safety of multiple administrations of TG6002 in combination with flucytosine (5-FC) in patients with colorectal cancer and liver metastases. In both parts, tumor response will be evaluated on local assessment using RECIST 1.1. All patients will be followed up until disease progression or death due to any cause or the date of data cut-off, whichever occurs first.
Trial evaluating the efficacy of regorafenib combined with irinotecan compared to irinotecan alone in second-line treatment of patients with metastatic gastro-oesophageal adenocarcinomas.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate itacitinib in combination with corticosteroids for the treatment of Grades II to IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in steroid-naive pediatric participants.
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) has been used for decades in rehabilitation centers. Having demonstrated efficacy for prevention of muscle atrophy following spinal cord injury (SCI), FES can also be considered for functional restoration of hand movements in the patients with complete tetraplegia belonging to group 0 or 1 of the classification of Giens. However, the majority of the systems using the FES directly stimulates the muscles (surface electrodes, intramuscular or epimysial), which increases the number of components and requires more electrical energy for the muscle activation. Nerve stimulation would activate more muscles through a reduced number of electrodes, limiting the number of internal components, reduces the risk of spreading infections and require less electrical energy for its operation.
