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.
This study is designed as a pilot study in order to estimate the effect of VAL070-A and VAL070-B products and their variability on LDL cholesterol and lipid metabolism since these data are still unknown for these products and in this specific population. Collected data will provide more reliable information which may be used to plan a subsequent larger main study.
The aim of the study is to show that subcutaneous electric lumbar stimulation reduces pain in chronic lumbago after 12 months of treatment.
In recent years, several studies confirm that some of preterm children have language developmental disabilities, in production, in comprehension, or in written language. These language impairments lead to learning disabilities. There are, however, contradictions concerning the origin and nature of language dysfunctions. Some studies find lexical disorders (number of words used by the child), others preferentially phonological disorders (sounds used in the language), others also disorders of the morphosyntaxe (organization of the sentences) and fragilities that affect pragmatics (understanding situations). The computer-evaluation of the language is carried out at five and a half year coupled with the medical and neuropsychological examinations. The language assessment lasts 30 to 45 minutes per child. It is carried out using a laptop computer that allows the submission of stimuli and recording of the child's responses. The language evaluation scale is the battery CléA (Pasquet F et al, 2014), standardized reference tool for the realization of a language evaluation. The assessment includes three tests: comprehension of words and phrases, production of words and phrases, and judgment of sentences. Each time, the child sees images and hears words or phrases. Sometimes he has to say what he sees on the computer screen. As usual, a speech-language assessment is not carried out, routinely, at the age of 5 years in the context of the follow-up of children born very preterm. The evaluation proposed to the child in this research will be carried out at a significant period of development, before writing. This assessment will not only assess the structure of the child's language, but also determine if there are possible difficulties in learning to read and write. The expected benefits for the health of the children included in the trial therefore concern the detection or characterization of any developmental fragilities affecting the language. These screenings or characterizations will make it possible to advocate a speech rehabilitation if necessary.
The adaptations in kinematics and muscle activity, investigated by 3D gait analysis and dynamic electromyography recordings, will be studied in children with bilateral spastic cerebral palsy during level walking, and before and after a training on a treadmill with a sloped surface (7°). Data will be compared with those obtained in a sample of typically developing (TD) children (controls)
The aim of the study is to determine if collapsing an embryo (or making it fold compactly by taking away its fluid) before the transfer in the uterine cavity improves pregnancy rates in assisted reproductive technology (ART). Women coming to our ART center will be randomized in two groups : the collapsing group and a control group. Pregnancy rates will be compared in the two groups. A biomarker (cell free DNA) will also be determined in each group and correlated to pregnancy occurrence.
Lymphedema is a frequent and chronic condition posing a high burden on patients. Clinical guidelines emphasize the role of compression therapy by prescription medical devices. Even in a mandatory publicly funded health insurance system, out-of-pocket payments (OOPP) may exist due to the price and reimbursement setting processes. OOPP may threaten the equity of care and drive patients to forgo care. Our aim was to analyze the distributive effects of OOPP for lymphedema patients in France. A prospective, multicenter study will be conducted in France in 2014 on patients with lymphedema. Household ability to pay will be specified by net income and OOPP will be assessed prospectively over 6 months for outpatient care (visits, drugs, medical devices, nursing care, biological tests, imaging, physiotherapy and transportations). Both mandatory and voluntary health insurance reimbursements will be considered. We will combine concentration curves and concentration indices to assess the distributive effects.
Primary lymphedema is a chronic condition posing a high burden on patients. Clinical guidelines emphasize the role of compression therapy by prescription medical devices. Even in a mandatory publicly funded health insurance system, out-of-pocket payments (OOPP) may exist due to the price and reimbursement setting processes. OOPP may threaten the equity of care and drive patients to forgo care. The investigators aim was to analyze the distributive effects of OOPP for primary lymphedema patients in France. A prospective, multicenter study will be conducted in France in 2015 on patients with primary lymphedema. Household ability to pay will be specified by net income and OOPP will be assessed prospectively over 6 months for outpatient care (visits, drugs, medical devices, nursing care, biological tests, imaging, physiotherapy and transportations). Both mandatory and voluntary health insurance reimbursements will be considered. The investigators will combine concentration curves and concentration indices to assess the distributive effects.
The study will be conducted in crossover trial, with two 12-weeks periods separated by a Wash-out period of at least one month. According to randomization ,patients will be provided with either Diabeloop system or the usual system. Patients will be trained for the use of blood glucose meter, of external Insulin Pump and Diabeloop system. In both treatment periods, the same blood glucose meter will be used throughout the duration of the study. In two centers (Centre Hospitalier Sud-Francilien and Grenoble), a pre-study will be performed during four weeks to improve the efficacy of Diabeloop system with data collection, to test the manual settings by health care providers and patients and to check the good-working of the follow-up platform.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of olaparib versus enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate in subjects with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have failed prior treatment with a new hormonal agent and have homologous recombination repair gene mutations.
The purpose of this study is to compare the impact of two combination of two tablets once daily: dolutegravir associated with emtricitabine / tenofovir versus darunavir / cobicistat associated with emtricitabine / tenofovir on DNA HIV measured in PBMC at 48 weeks in patients with primary HIV-1 infection.
