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.
Modern management of acute respiratory failure aims to relieve dyspnea and anxiety by providing a non-invasive respiratory support. This approach tries to avoid endotracheal intubation, patient self inflicted lung injuries (PSILI) and diaphragmatic dysfunction. The present study aims to evaluate dyspnea, pulmonary regional ventilation and diaphragmatic function in patients with hypoxemic acute respiratory failure by different observations, and to bring risk factor for intubation out.
In view to develop a study design for a study that would analyze the pathways of palliative care prospectively, this work will identify the individual factors that would be significantly associated with typical pathways of palliative care.
Babesiosis is a potentially very serious infection, but too little known. investigators want to raise their clinical colleagues and remind fellow biologists of the importance of choosing a good molecular diagnosis so as not to give false-negative results.
This study is set up within the framework of the European Union regulation 2017/745 on medical devices. Its objective is to confirm the performance and safety in the medium and long term of implant-prosthetic systems including Global D dental implants: In-Kone® UNIVERSAL, In-Kone® PRIMO, twinKon®, EVL® S, EVL® K and EVL® C.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are lifelong chronic diseases affecting the gastrointestinal tract. The precise etiology and the different actors participating to the pathophysiological process leading to the disease development are still not well understood. A complex interaction between genetics, gut microbiota and environmental factors is thought to trigger the inappropriate mucosal immune response observed in IBD patients. We hypothesize that DON might be an environmental risk factor for IBD.The focus on the human relevance of the gut effects of DON by studying its exposure, metabolism and adverse effects in health and disease focusing on IBD patients
VOICE project aims to guide health services in their reorganization towards the provision of the highest value care for the patient at the best cost. VOICE is targeted to patients with breast and lung cancer. The purpose is to offer a new innovative strategic framework based on value-based healthcare model to these patients in Europe. VOICE Community consists of 13 hospitals across Europe working collaboratively to implement this approach. The Community addresses what matters most to patients by measuring patient reported health outcomes in routine clinical practice on a systematic and long-term basis, by including patients´ perspective in clinical decision-making, improving patient empowerment and physician-patient communication, assessing the impact on costs of the processes implemented, identifying factors for a successful implementation of value-based healthcare and boosting knowledge generation and best practice exchange across Europe. The VOICE ambition is to collect the health-related Quality of Life evidence from more than 1000 patients (patients with breast cancer and patients with lung cancer), by means of health related and patient reported questionnaires (ICHOM, International Consortium for Health Outcome Measurements, standard sets). Hospitals will go further by assessing the satisfaction, acceptability, relationship with professionals or decision-making process with patients. The VOICE Community will benchmark health outcomes and related costs to improve care delivery of these patients.
A global phase 3, multicenter, randomized, trial, to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of Durvalumab in combination with Tremelimumab and Enfortumab Vedotin or Durvalumab in combination with Enfortumab vedotin for Perioperative Treatment in Patients Ineligible for Cisplatin or who refuse Cisplantin Undergoing Radical Cystectomy for Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer. The goal of the study is to explore the triplet combination of Durvalumab, Tremelimumab and Enfortumab Vedotin in terms of efficacy and safety compared to the current Standard Of Care (SOC). Volga trial consists of two parts: Safety Run-In and Main Study. In total the study aims to enroll approximately 830 patients, who will receive triplet combination, duplet combination of Durvalumab and Enfortumab vedotin or currently approved SOC in the main trial. In the main part of the trial there is two out of three chances of being on a treatment arm and the treatment is assigned at random by a computer system. In this trial patients in the two treatment arms will receive either 3 cycles of neoadjuvant Durvalumab + Tremelimumab + Enfortumab Vedotin or Durvalumab + Enfortumab vedotin and after surgery both treatment arms will continue with adjuvant Durvalumab.
In industrialised countries, it is estimated that about 15% of couples who wish to have a child are currently facing infertility problems, of which, in half of the cases, an anomaly in sperm quality or at least a factor of male origin is identified. The evaluation of sperm quality in males is based, for the most part, on the micro and macroscopic examination of various parameters (concentration, motility, physical abnormalities of the spermatozoa, etc.). Nevertheless, an increasing number of scientific studies have shown that the quality of sperm DNA, and in particular its fragmentation rate, is also associated with a lower fertilisation rate. The integrity of sperm DNA may be affected by an imbalance in the Red/Ox balance leading to uncompensated oxidative stress, and could be restored or improved by dietary hygiene measures and the consumption of specific dietary products. The ISITOL clinical study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a dietary supplement specifically formulated to target the various issues associated with male infertility, and in particular to contribute to the improvement of the sperm DNA fragmentation rate. The efficacy of the dietary supplement Isitol® (GYNOV SAS) on sperm DNA fragmentation rate and other secondary parameters is being evaluated through a single-centre, prospective, randomised, double-blind, interventional vs. placebo clinical study being conducted in France at Laboratoire Drouot (21 Rue Drouot - 75009 Paris - France) and led by Dr. Nino-Guy Cassuto. A total of 72 men aged between 20 and 45 years, with sperm DNA fragmentation rate ≥ 30% and with negative semen culture are recruited. The recruited patients were randomized in a 1:1 scheme into 2 groups (Isitol® treated vs placebo treated). [Results to be reported later]
Ophthalmology physicians and residents work under stress conditions during night emergency ophthalmology shifts. Under time pressure, that is a characteristic of the urgency of care, they must use all their cognitive resources to make an accurate diagnosis and to provide accurate decisions, with sometimes surgical emergency acts. In addition, in France, they work at night following by an usual day work, and they can also work 48 consecutive hours during weekends, followed by a work day … i.e. 60 consecutive hours of work … Long working hours with a short recovery time has been demonstrated to be a major factor of stress and fatigue. Even if not demonstrated on ophthalmologists, those working conditions may contribute to symptoms of mental exhaustion and physical fatigue (sleep deprivation), often accompanied by a loss of motivation at work. This may leads to a feeling of loss of time control; stress can also distort the perception of time and leads to hasty actions or delayed decision-making. The combined effects of stress, feelings of loss of time control, and fatigue necessarily have an impact on work performance and work quality, with a high risk of medical error. Moreover, prolonged stress may expose ophthalmologists to a higher risk of multiple diseases, predominantly systemic inflammation and coronary heart disease. The main hypothesis is that prolonged work (up to 60 consecutive working hours) may impact on HRV, comparatively to a typical working day.
A high number of people are infected by viral hepatitises B and C without knowing it, especially vulnerable population such as the ones who come in consultation in continuous health care access center (Permanence d'accès aux soins, PASS). Now that these infections can be rapidly treated, it is essential to diagnose them the quickest possible. The Identification and Diagnostic Orientation Test (Test de repérage et d'orientation diagnostique, TROD) technique is a rapid tool allowing to screen for hepatitis B and C by a simple capillary sample. The study aims to evaluate the accptability of a systematic screening using TROD for hepatitis B and C in adults in a PASS consultation in Montpellier. We also want to estimate the prevalence of theses infections in the population, to describe the HBV and HCV care cascades, to evaluate the acceptability of vaccinal catch-up for HBV, and to describe people with hepatits.
