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.
Cranberries are traditionally used for urinary comfort and prevention of urinary disorders of bacterial origin and despite an EFSA opinion invalidating the clinical efficacy of cranberries, its mechanism of action has been several times proposed by the scientific community: it would act by inhibiting the synthesis of P-fimbriae leading to a complete disappearance of these adhesins, and to bacterial-type deformation by lengthening of the cell body. Cinnamon and microbiotic strains could enhance this synergy. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a food supplement based on cranberry, cinnamon and microbiotic strains (Feminabiane CBU) on the symptoms of cystitis, urinary discomfort and the number of cystitis reported by women.
Preclinical evaluation of a vitamin D analog for the treatment of vitamin D 24-hydroxylase using fibroblast from patients with CYP24A1 mutation.
The treatment of depression, anxiety disorders and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a main public health problem due to the frequency of these pathologies and the very partial effectiveness of the existent therapies. These illnesses generally require the prescription of several successive lines of antidepressant treatments before the treatments actually become effective, leading to a several week delay during which the patient suffers from the symptoms of his/her pathology and is also likely to experience the side effects of the treatment. Pharmacogenetics is an individualized prescribing modality that aims to predict the most favorable treatment for a given individual based on the study of genetic variants of cytochromes. The main hypothesis of this research is that the use of pharmacogenetics in routine practice in a population of military personnel requiring a first prescription of an antidepressant is of interest to improve the tolerance and effectiveness of the treatment.
stroke's risk is increased in patients with pulmonary embolism and PFO compared to patients without PFO. Does this increased risk persist years after pulmonary embolism ?
The aim of this study is to make a precise inventory of the complications that may occur postoperatively in the more or less long term in a cohort of patients who should benefit from surgical management of Hallux Valgus.
Pneumonia is the most common infection in intensive care unit (ICU) patients and occurs in 10% of all ICU admissions. Unfortunately, ICU patient outcomes remain poor with a high mortality rate associated with pneumonia despite recent therapeutic advances. Previous studies of antibiotics used in ICU patients, which includes ceftriaxone, meropenem and piperacillin/tazobactam, have quantified major differences in pharmacokinetics (PK) between ICU and non-ICU patients, with ICU patients displaying a unique spectrum of plasma concentration-time profiles. These PK differences can lead to suboptimal antibiotic concentrations in blood, which have been associated with a reduced likelihood of clinical cure for pneumonia. Furthermore, highlighting the importance of optimised dosing for pneumonia is that multi-drug resistant (MDR) pathogens emerge during antibiotic therapy in approximately half of the ICU patients, frequently emerging from the lung. Previous work has highlighted how infection site concentrations determine patient outcome. For pneumonia, the infection site is best described as the epithelial lining fluid (ELF) in the lung. Although optimal antibiotic therapy should be considered a priority for ICU patients with pneumonia to improve the persisting poor outcomes, the dosing regimens that can achieve therapeutic concentrations at the infection site (i.e., ELF) in ICU patients with pneumonia remain unknown. The PNEUDOS study aims to address this significant knowledge gap by defining novel individualised dosing regimens that can maximise antibiotic efficacy by achieving therapeutic concentrations in the blood and ELF of ICU patients with pneumonia. These dosing regimens can then be validated in future clinical trials.
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center sequential phase 2b and Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZD4831 administered for up to 48 Weeks in participants with heart failure with left ventricular ejection fraction > 40%. The study will consist of 2 separate parts, Part A and Part B, approximately 660 participants will be randomised in Part A, 820 in Part B.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of cobitolimod treatment compared to placebo in inducing clinical remission, in participants with moderate to severe active left-sided UC and to evaluate the efficacy of cobitolimod maintenance treatment compared to placebo in inducing or maintaining clinical remission at week 52, in participants with clinical response at week 6 after induction treatment with cobitolimod.
Randomized controlled trial (1:1) in two parallel groups, monocentric, open-label, comparing two locoregional anesthesia (LRA) techniques as integral parts of multimodal analgesia: the control group will benefit from epidural anesthesia, while the experimental group will benefit from bilateral placement of catheters in the sheath of the rectus abdominis muscles.
This is a Phase 1b/2, multi-center, open label umbrella study of patients ≥12 years of age with recurrent, progressive, or refractory melanoma or other solid tumors with alterations in the key proteins of the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway, referred to as the MAPK pathway.
