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.
Autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) are highly debilitating developmental syndromes which core feature is social and communications disorders. Motor skill impairments are frequently described in autism, but few studies have addressed the question of their origin and their specificity. Furthermore, it is not clear whether motor problems encountered in autism are related to dyspraxia, or if they present with specific features. This project aims at deciphering the origin of motor problems encountered by children who grow-up with autism in order to propose early interventions that could influence the other developmental trajectories, such as the social one. Brain dynamics during sensori-motor learning is explored by applying magnetoencephalography (MEG) during the Bimanual Load-Lifting paradigm. Different motor processes namely: proprioceptive monitoring, use and update of a sensori-motor representation, anticipatory executive control will be correlated to brain oscillation modulation, both topographically and temporally. Two groups of children (aged between 7 and 12) are compared: a group of children with ASD and a control group of typically developing children.
Evaluation of the long-term safety and tolerability of vortioxetine in child and adolescent patients with a Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5™) diagnosis of MDD
Vemurafenib is an anti-cancer treatment indicated as monotherapy in the treatment of adult patients with non-resectable or metastatic melanoma carrying a BRAF V600 mutation. Cobimetinib is indicated in combination with Vemurafenib in the treatment of adult patients with non-resectable or metastatic melanoma carrying a BRAF V600 mutation. These treatments are associated with a lot of adverse reactions, which may lead to dose reduction, temporary interruption or discontinuation of treatment, which often leads to treatment failure or a decrease in treatment compliance. The most commonly reported adverse reactions (> 30%) with Vemurafenib are arthralgia, rash, photosensitivity reaction, nausea, alopecia and pruritus. The most commonly reported adverse events (> 20%) associated with Cobimetinib / Vemurafenib are diarrhea, rash, nausea, pyrexia, photosensitivity reaction, increase of alanine aminotransferase, elevation of aspartate aminotransferase, blood creatine phosphokinase elevation and vomiting. The risk of presenting a phototoxicity adverse event with Vemurafenib in monotherapy or in combination with Cobimetinib is very common (≥ 1/10) according to MedDRA. The use of optimal photoprotection including the repeated daily use of external photoprotection products is currently recommended for all patients receiving treatment with vemurafenib or with the combination of vemurafenib and cobimetinib.
The study evaluates the efficacy of a new 2-piece appliance in patients with colostomy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a treat to target strategy coupled with early endoscopic assessment versus a clinically driven (routine care) approach in achieving endoscopic response.
The ESUS concept was introduced recently to describe a non-lacunar stroke of undetermined etiology. The following etiological workup is required in this setting: head CT or MRI, 12-lead ECG, transthoracic echocardiography, continuous cardiac monitoring for at least 24 hours after stroke, vascular imaging (ultrasound, magnetic resonance angiography, CT angiography, catheter angiography). Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is considered not to be required. However, aortic arch atheroma as diagnosed by TEE in the setting of recent ischemic stroke is a major aortic source of embolism, as supported by numerous well conducted studies. The European Association of Echocardiography considers that TEE is the gold standard for the diagnosis and the characterization of aortic atheroma. It is also the method of choice for the diagnosis of infectious endocarditis. The aim of this work was to evaluate the rate of patients with a therapeutic modification induced by TEE (mainly anticoagulation and surgery), in consecutive patients admitted with ESUS at our institution stroke unit.
The study consist of evaluation in cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) setting the ability of PCO2 derived variables (ΔPCO2, ΔPCO2/C(a-v)O2 ratio), compared to lactate and ScVO2 to predict major postoperative adverse events.
The aim of the study is to investigate a possible role of dreaming in emotion regulation testing whether dreaming of a close relative recently deceased is correlated with a positive evolution of the bereavement process
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are myeloid hemopathies characterized by ineffective clonal haematopoiesis, peripheral cytopenias and a predisposition to the occurrence of acute myeloid leukemias. Their diagnosis involves a cytological evaluation of the medulla, while their prognosis, in addition to extrinsic factors depending on the patient himself (age, comorbidities), intrinsic factors. The cytological evaluation is subject to a certain subjectivity since qualitative and the diagnosis is sometimes difficult in the absence of marker of clonality. More and more studies emphasize the interest of flow cytometry (CMF) in the diagnosis of SMD: by looking for qualitative and / or quantitative aberrations of the expression of membrane markers, CMF allows to establish scores Diagnosis that we have put in place within the laboratory. However, these studies are based on a static model that studies the phenotypic characteristics of patients at a given time but does not really reflect ineffective hematopoiesis. A dynamic model for in vitro reproduction of hematopoiesis would be an innovative tool for the study of SMD. This project aims to develop and standardize a system of differentiation in liquid medium of hematopoietic stem cells (CSH) in mature cells by studying each stage of the differentiation in terms of proliferation, apoptosis and phenotypic expression. HSCs will be obtained by CD34 + sorting from the medullary sample at diagnosis: the investigator will study cell proliferation, apoptosis and the acquisition of surface markers, in order to identify the quantitative and qualitative abnormalities associated with the differentiation of haematopoietic progenitors Smart. This should make it possible to identify diagnostic and prognostic factors in terms of response to treatment, acutism and survival.
The OReO study will be a Phase IIIb, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre study to assess the efficacy and tolerability of Olaparib retreatment, versus matching placebo, in non-mucinous epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients (including patients with primary peritoneal and/or fallopian tube cancer)
