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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, drug levels, drug effects, and impact on disease severity of BMS-986326 in participants with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).
Acute liver failure in cirrhotic patients is associated with a one-month mortality of 48%. Encephalopathy, largely related to hyperammonemia, is a frequent complication of liver failure and is a poor prognostic marker. Lactulose decreases ammonia by acidification of the colon, replacement of urease-producing bacteria and creation of a laxative effect. Thus, the administration of lactulose in patients with severe hepatic encephalopathy reduces mortality by more than 40%. In intensive care patients, lactulose is often administered rectally. The use of simple rectal tubes is associated with frequent leakage of lactulose as well as faecal discharge and therefore risks of infection and skin lesions. Balloon rectal tubes with a drug delivery valve have recently been developed and used in this indication. The aim of this study is therefore to describe the use of these balloon rectal tubes to administer Lactulose in severe hepatic encephalopathy. This suggests that ammonia reduction in these patients may prolong survival time. No studies have described the administration of Lactulose via the rectal route with a balloon tube. The descriptive methodology is therefore appropriate. This is a preliminary study allowing data collection to establish the methodology for a subsequent clinical trial.
Alternating hemiplegia of childhood (AHC) is a rare early-onset neurodevelopmental encephalopathy frequently caused by mutations in the ATP1A3 gene. It is typically characterized by a variable degree of intellectual disability, motor dysfunction and various paroxysmal events (dystonic and plegic attacks). Dystonic and plegic attacks are very disabling and current treatments are disappointing with limited efficacy and poor tolerability. The investigators recently reported the efficacy of high-flow oxygen administration (100% O2 at a flow rate of 12 L/min) as an acute treatment for the dystonic attacks in a 25-year-old patient suffering from AHC. The aim of the study is to assess the effect of high-flow oxygen administration (against placebo) as an acute treatment of dystonic and plegic attacks. The primary outcome will be the proportion of motor attacks stopped 30 minutes after the beginning of motor symptoms over 5 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to compare two methods of cochlear implantation : conventional manual insertion versus robot-assisted in order to verify whether robotic insertion provides better performance in the noisy environment. To do this, we will compare the two methods of insertion of the electrode holder, on 140 patients candidates for cochlear implantation randomized in two groups (70 conventional surgery versus 70 robot-assisted surgery). All patients will be recruited during 17 months, in our Ear, nose and throat (ENT) Department of the Pitié-Salpêtrière hospital group, the first center for adult patients established in France (on average 180 patients/year). Patient will be followed for 9 months with clinical evaluation, imaging, audiometric, listening effort and quality of life assessments. These evaluations will be carried out preoperatively and postoperatively at 3 months and 6 months post-activation of the cochlear implant.
The goal of this prospective, interventional study is to evaluate the mechanisms of acquired resistance to amivantamab monotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC with EGFR ins20. The main question it aims to answer is: What are the mechanisms of acquired resistance to amivantamab monotherapy in this population of patients ? How anticipate the efficacy of subsequent systemic therapies ? After this information session, the participant will be asked to sign the study informed consent. A blood samples (2*10 mL on ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)) will be taken at time of disease progression and will be sent for central liquid biopsy ctDNA analysis. If available, tumor tissue will also be sent for DNA NGS analysis.
This project proposes to adapt monthly the existing ICOPE (Integrated Care for Older People) MONITOR program for elderly myeloma patients. This adaptation aims to detect earlier functional decline and prevent loss of autonomy.
Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD) is frequent after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT). GVHD occurs following 2 patterns : acute GVHD (aGVHD) or chronic GVHD (cGVHD). The latter occurs in nearly 50% of patients and its pathogenesis remains poorly understood. Previous translational studies have delineated biological immune dysregulation involved in cGVHD and facilitated the development of new drug and therapeutic strategies. New aspects of T and B cells collaboration in the context of cGVHD using blood description of a key player called TFH, classicaly involved in germinal center reaction, were previously uncovered (Forcade et al, Blood 2016). Previous studies in the context of auto-immune inflammation (lupus nephritis) or organ transplant rejection, suggested that target tissue could contain accessory lymphoid structures (TLS). The description of such structures in cGVHD target tissue would give the opportunity to directly analyze immune key player involved the pathogenesis of cGVHD.
Regorafenib is an anti-cancer drug that blocks several proteins which are involved in the growth of cancer. It has been approved for different types of cancers of the digestive system and is being tested for use in some other solid tumors. Cancers that start in an organ, a muscle, or a bone form a solid tumor. This study is for participants with solid tumors who have been taking regorafenib in other Bayer studies. They can continue taking regorafenib if it is working when treatment with regorafenib in their previous study ends. The main purpose of this study is to find: - How safe is the continued treatment with regorafenib in participants with solid tumors? - How well is the continued treatment with regorafenib tolerated by participants with solid tumors? Participants will continue with the same dose of regorafenib that they were taking in their previous study as long as the treatment works for them/they want to continue the treatment/other medical conditions do not prevent them from participating in the study. For participants that are under 18 years of age, regorafenib tablets will be taken by mouth once daily for 2 weeks and repeat again after a 1-week gap. For participants that are over 18 years of age, regorafenib tablets will be taken by mouth once daily for 3 weeks and repeat again after a 1-week gap. At the start of the study, researchers will review participants' records from the previous study. During the study, researchers will use blood samples and X-rays taken from participants under the age of 18 years to check how safe regorafenib is for children. They will also monitor any medical problems that participants may have during the study. After the last dose, follow-up will be done either within 14 days when participants visit their study doctor or within 30-35 days by phone call. Both the researchers and the participants will know the dose of regorafenib the participants receive during the study.
