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.
Controlled, prospective, qualitative and quantitative trial. The goal of this trial is to evaluate the mutual assistance early intervention device efficacy and its impact on insight and personal recovery of participants living with a first psychotic episode. This intervention lasts 5 days with 1 session per day of 1 hour 30 minutes. Three evaluations, before the intervention, after intervention and 1 month after the hospitalization's end.
The age of puberty has fluctuated throughout history. Recent data shows an increase in the age of onset of puberty signs, in the United States but also in Europe. A recent Public Health France study published in 2018 reports an increase in the incidence of precocious puberty with geographical heterogeneity. The consequences of these appearances include the early onset of menarche, short adult height and the psychological impact. Due to a lack of studies and additional data, the reasons for this development are difficult to understand. Among current hypotheses, the entanglement with the evolution of our environment is at the forefront: the action of environmental endocrine disruptors and nutritional factors could play a role in the process of early appearance of pubertal signs. The establishment of a national observatory for early and advanced puberty in collaboration with pediatric endocrinologists (on the front line) would allow a reliable and precise field approach, capable of supplementing epidemiological data, which are currently insufficient. The investigators hypothesize that the establishment of an observatory of pubertal advances (early puberty and advanced puberty) in private medicine is possible, with inclusion of at least 75% of eligible patients, and collection of at least 80% of data.
Decompensation of cirrhosis is a turning point in cirrhosis course, as associated with a marked decrease in life expectancy. Thus, prevention of decompensation is crucial. The usefulness of carvedilol to prevent decompensation of cirrhosis in patients with TE-LSM ≥ 25 kPa as a surrogate marker for clinically significant portal hypertension, has never been evaluated in a clinical trial.
The aims of this prospective multicentric study is to determine the types of enteroviruses (EVs) responsible for hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) or herpangina in children seen within an ambulatory setting : - to detect an EV-A71 epidemic or another type associated with atypical forms of the disease at an early stage - to describe and compare the epidemiological, demographic, clinical and virological characteristics of these infections between the different types of EV.
Following the results of the phase 1b and the phase 3 studies, Venetoclax/Azacitidine (VEN/AZA) was available in France for newly diagnosed AML patients ineligible-IC patients through the early access program the so-called ATU program. Venetoclax (VEN) has been available in France through the ATU since Feb 2021 and through the current post-ATU schema from the point of marketing authorization approval and up to the pending publication of reimbursement and price. Between February 15, 2021, and June 30, 2021, 285 requests for ATU were made to the pharmaceutical company (Abbvie) and led to the initiation of treatment of more than 230 patients. At the end of ATU period, all these 230 ATU patients continued to be treated by VEN/AZA as part of the current post-ATU period. Healthcare professionals and health care decision makers need real world data to better understand the benefit/risk profile of treatment. Early access to treatment in France is close to real-life setting condition.
Dento-maxillary dysmorphoses are defined as an anomaly in the relative growth of the maxilla and/or mandible. They lead to functional disorders (i.e., disturbances in chewing or oral communication) and aesthetic issues with psychological repercussions on self-esteem, affecting the quality of life of these patients. The multidisciplinary treatment involves orthodontics (duration = 18-24 months), orthognathic surgery involving the maxillary and/or mandibular bone (at 12 months), immediately followed by physiotherapy (duration = 3 months). One main goal after surgery is the recovery of month opening to restore an appropriate orofacial function. Motor imagery (mental rehearsal of a movement without actually moving) is effectively used in athletes and in rehabilitation mainly neurological but so far has not been investigated in maxillofacial rehabilitation. Considering that the effectiveness of rehabilitation is increased when physical and mental practices are combined, this leads to propose this study aiming to investigate whether the addition of motor imagery of the maxillofacial region to maxillofacial physiotherapy (based on a practice of physical therapeutic exercises) modifies the recovery of maximum mouth opening, other ranges of motion, jaw function, and quality of life in patients after orthognathic surgery compared to the addition of a control cognitive task [watching a non-emotional content film or filling out a crossword or Sudoku grid] to maxillofacial physiotherapy.
Every year in France, nearly 3,000 women develop a cervical cancer. The average age of women diagnosed is 51. Uterovaginal brachytherapy is one of the reference treatments. To allow this treatment, an applicator is first placed under general anaesthesia in the vaginal zone. Then, the pulsed Dose Rate (PDR) or high dose rate (HDR) uterovaginal brachytherapy requires 2-5 days hospitalization in an isolated room. Uterovaginal brachytherapy requires strict bed rest without movements allowed for the pelvic area until the applicator is removed. Prolonged immobilization, the context of the illness and the intimacy of the area to be treated are all recognized sources of anxiety. According to a study, 40% of patients have post-traumatic stress at 3 months of treatment. A Danish team highlights the significant decrease in physical capacity during and after treatment. Thus, as a recent literature review concludes, there is a real need to develop Non-Pharmacological-Interventions (NPI) to limit the aftereffects. It also seems important to provide support for self-management of symptoms. Among NPI of interest, Yoga is a mind-body practice that can decrease perceived stress. A systematic review confirms that yoga can reduce stress during cancer treatment. This underlines the importance of proposing this practice for patients treated for all types of cancers and further evaluations on the effects of respiratory and meditation exercises. Another team showed the feasibility of respiratory exercise intervention in patients undergoing chemotherapy while also talking about mental health benefits. Finally, a reduction in perceived stress was achieved in women treated with radiotherapy for breast cancer through yoga intervention. A lot of work has been done with promising results without the result of a consensus applicable to all care situations. Moreover, educational requirements are high in women treated to gynecological cancer. Meeting these needs helps to improve quality of life, pain management and drug use. Integrating Patient Educational Project (PEP) therefore seems relevant as an additional tool in patient empowerment. In addition, the fact that a combined Physiotherapy-Yoga-PEP intervention is feasible in women treated for breast cancer allows us to offer adjusted version in patients with brachytherapy. The literature review thus invites us to propose the educational intervention Kine-Yoga-PEP in the very particular context of brachytherapy.
Return to work (RTW) of patients after cancer treatment has been a topic of growing interest for the past two decades. Advances in cancer care have led to better patient survival, with some cancers considered as chronic or even cured diseases. The return of patients to their "pre-cancer life" can thus become an objective. Indeed, RTW after cancer is associated with improved quality of life for patients in several studies (improved financial status, improved social contacts, return of functional abilities and improved self-esteem). However, many difficulties can interfere with RTW. Many factors have been identified: disease, treatment, patient and occupational factors. The feeling of "return-to-work self-efficacy" is one of the main psychological determinants and its interest has been recently demonstrated in oncology. It corresponds to a cognitive mechanism based on expectations and/or beliefs of an individual about being able to carry out the actions required to achieve a goal, in this case RTW. The majority of studies on RTW concerns solid cancer and are retrospective. Very few studies have focused on hematological malignancies, whose prognosis was, until recently, worse. Moreover, very few interventional studies exist. There is therefore a significant need for prospective studies with appropriate methodological tools to reliably assess the benefit of interventional measures on RTW. The investigators propose to conduct a prospective, comparative, randomized, multicenter study evaluating the impact of an early RTW-consultation in patients who have been treated for a hematological malignancy. The investigators hypothesize that this consultation will improve patients' RTW rates and RTW quality.
The purpose of this study is to assess the sensation of ocular dry eye symptom after an intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF.
Affecting more than 150,000 patients in France, stroke is a major public health issue and a leading cause of disability worldwide. In western countries, 80-85% of strokes are of ischemic subtype. This study will focus on young adults, aged 18-45, with a diagnosis of ischemic stroke. Studies assessing post-stroke cognition in young patients reported an alarming prevalence of cognitive impairment, affecting about 60% of stroke survivors between 4 and 12 months after the acute event. However, longitudinal data on neurocognitive trajectories (i.e., the evolution of cognitive impairment over time) in young patients with ischemic stroke are lacking. Collecting such data requires an exhaustive neuropsychological assessment and several functional evaluations, at different times, for the same patient. Repeated neurocognitive study of young patients with ischemic stroke will enable: a description of the prevalence of impaired global cognitive efficiency, an analysis of the specific neurocognitive domains affected, and the tracing of trajectories of recovery from cognitive impairment over time, in terms of global cognitive efficiency and as a function of specific neurocognitive domains (memory, executive, attentional, social cognition, instrumental functions, fatigability, etc.). Up to date, the clinic-radiological predictors and associated factors of neurocognitive impairment after ischemic stroke in young patients have not been studied. Ischemic stroke causes acute brain lesions of the gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM). Numerous studies suggest that cognitive health may be more closely linked to the integrity of WM than to GM. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and in particular diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) sequences, analyze WM bundles. By using fiber tracking algorithms image analysis enable the WM fiber bundle reconstruction and allow quantifying the volume of lesions (pre-existing and ischemic stroke-induced) in the WM tract. The aim of this study is to study whether the extension of pre-existing and acute white matter lesions is associated with poorer cognitive recovery after ischemic stroke, both in terms of global cognitive performance and impairment in specific neurocognitive domains.
