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.
A prospective, observational, single-center study to determine the proportion of patients who have or will develop changes in biological markers of immunity during immunotherapy treatment.
Observational, multicenter, study conducted in 12 hospitals in the Nord and Pas-De-Calais departments. The aim of this study is to describe the relationship between reported exposure to molds and asthma control in a pediatric population. Each patient followed by a specialized asthma pediatrician in one of the study center will be proposed to participate in the study. Children aged 1 to < 18 years, with asthma diagnosis, based on the assessment of a specialized physician after a follow-up of at least 6 months Inclusion, non-inclusion and exclusion criteria will be verified by the investigators. The questionnaires will be completed during the consultation, collected by the physician in charge of the consultation and sent to the principal investigator for data entry. Inclusion will take place over a period of 12 consecutive months from the date of obtaining regulatory approval.
Functional digestive pathologies are defined by symptoms such as functional dyspepsia, gastroesophageal reflux, irritable bowel syndrome, gastroesophageal reflux, functional constipation, functional diarrhea, functional bloating, the opioid-induced constipation and fecal incontinence, without organic substratum. These diseases are very common in the general population (20%) and represent the first cause of consultation in city gastroenterology. The objective of this study is to collect prospective clinical and tests data and a biological collection from biological samples collected as part of the standard care. This collection could identify diagnostic or prognostic markers of the therapeutic response.
Sympathetic tone is important in cardiac arrhythmogenesis. The simultaneous recording of sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) and electrocardiogram (ECG) was obtained by invasive method. The purpose of this protocol is to further develop this recording method to turn it into a new non-invasive tool for arrhythmia prediction and detection. This method may also be useful in validating the results of surgical procedures aimed at sympathetic denervation
Digestive carcinomas chemotherapies regimen are mostly based on fluoropyrimidine drugs (5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) or capecitabine). 5-FU is mainly catabolised by dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) and partial or complete DPD deficiency can cause severe adverse reactions. Different strategies have been proposed to predict DPD deficiency; the two main approaches are phenotyping the enzyme activity (directly or indirectly), or genotyping the four main polymorphisms associated with 5-FU-toxicity. In February 2018, the French medicines agency (Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé, ANSM) recommended DPD genotyping for all patients receiving fluoropyrimidine-based treatment to improve its safety as compared to the European Medicines Agency (EMA)13 and others pharmacogenetics working group. In December 2018, a new guideline from the French cancer institute (Institut National Du Cancer, INCa) and the French health authority (Haute Autorité de Santé, HAS) recommended the measurement of the uracil blood level before genotyping DPD and dose adaptation if this level is greater than 16 ng/mL. The aim herein is to assess how this recommendation has been implemented in clinical routine. 5-FU displays a dose-response relationship regarding both its efficacy and its toxicity, did tailored-dose impair the treatment efficacy as it decreased the risk of toxicity? To address that matter we conducted a retrospective study to evaluate how fluoropyrimidine dosage is adapted to uracil concentration with an emphasis on how patients outcome were affected. We compared time to failure and overall survival between patients with an uracil concentration < 16 ng/mL and > or = 16 ng/mL.
Project Rational A better understanding of the causes of physical disability is an important unmet need in progressive Multiple Sclerosis patients. Progressive Multiple Sclerosis patients most often present a worsening pyramidal syndrome of lower and, to a lesser extent, upper limbs (Lublin et al., 2014) suggesting a strong corticospinal tract involvement. The systematic high resolution Magnetic Resonance Imaging exploration of lesions location and severity, as well as extra-lesional tissue, on pan-medullar and encephalic motor tracts offers the opportunity to better understand the pathological mechanism associated with motor impairment. Scientific aims This project will follow a twofold approach. First, the investigators will consider an "inter-patient" approach where independent and absolute Magnetic Resonance metrics for each limb will be related to disability. Second, the investigators will consider an "intra-patient" approach (i.e. comparing differences of Magnetic Resonance metric and of clinical score from the left and the right side in the same patient). For this purpose, progressive Multiple Sclerosis patients with asymmetric motor impairment will be studied. Confronting clinical and Magnetic Resonance Imaging metric value asymmetries indeed offers the unique opportunity to free oneself from many confounding factors such as genetics, age, duration of disease evolution, acquisition bias, etc. These two approaches will allow us to precisely study the impact of local factors such as Multiple Sclerosis lesions located on motor tracts on motor disability. Methodology The investigators propose an observational multicenter cross-sectional and prognostic study. This study will involve two French centers (Rennes, Marseille) and will include a total of 40 progressive Multiple Sclerosis patients with an asymmetrical motor deficit. Twenty sex and age matched controls will be needed to calibrate quantitative Magnetic Resonance imaging (magnetization transfer ratio). Encephalic and pan medullar structural and quantitative Magnetic Resonance images will be acquired at inclusion and clinical follow-up examinations will be performed at inclusion and 24 months. Detailed motor evaluation "per limb" will be performed, including the motor American Society Injury. Association sub-score and upper and lower limbs muscle strength measurements using a dynamometer.
The clinical decision-making after kidney transplantation is mainly driven by patient individual assessment. However, this task remains difficult and uncertain due to the integration of complex and numerous parameters. We aim to evaluate and compare the ability of transplant physicians to predict long term allograft survival compared with a computer-based survival prediction algorithm (iBox system).
Assess the incidence of the composite of thrombotic events (TEs) and thromboembolic events (TEEs) in patients with congenital antithrombin deficiency under cover of Atenativ for surgical procedures or parturition.
The COVID-SRLF study will evaluate the sanitary safety of the French Intensive Care Society (FICS) annual meeting held in Paris Congress Center from June 9th to June 11th 2021 in the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-2019) pandemic situation. The primary objective is to determine the proportion of attendees with a positive antigenic COVID-19 screening test at day 7 (+/- 1) of their participation to the meeting. This rate will be compared to a cohort of health care professionals (medical doctors and paramedical professionals) from the same hospital ward as the attendees but who did not attend the meeting (stratified on centers, gender, age (< and >= 40 years, vaccination status (0, 1 or 2 doses) and socio-professional status (medical doctor, nurse, nurse assistant).
Systemic sclerosis and inflammatory myopathies, which sometimes combine (scleromyositis), have shared pathophysiological elements. In both diseases, many cell subtypes are involved in damage to organs such as T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, and unconventional (non-B, non-T) lymphocytes called innate lymphoid cell (ILC). The increasing complexity of our understanding of the immune system (multiplication of recognized cell subtypes) also makes the strategies for analyzing pathophysiological mechanisms more complex. Currently, no biomarker perfectly predicts the phenotype and evolution of patients. Multi-OMIC analyzes will be performed (identification of cell populations as well as genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic characterization) in blood and tissue samples (skin and muscle biopsy) in patients with systemic sclerosis and inflammatory myopathies, with the objective of identifying discriminating molecular signatures (biomarkers) according to the characteristics of the disease and its evolution.
