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.
ILCOR guidelines recommend Target Temperature Management (TTM) to between 32°C and 36°C after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, based on low quality evidence. In a previous trial, TTM at 33°C did not confer a survival benefit or improved neurological function, compared to TTM at 36°C. A lower target temperature might be beneficial compared with normothermia and early treatment of fever. Therefore the primary purpose of the TTM2-trial will be to study any differences in mortality, neurological function and quality of life between a target temperature of 33°C and standard care avoiding fever.
Patients are treated with infusions of Tocilizumab (TCZ) or placebo for 5 months. Clinical evaluation is performed using PMR-AS. The PMR-AS is computed by summing the 5 variables after multiplying by 0.1 for weighting purposes: PMR-AS (activity scale = AS) = C reactive protein (CRP) (mg/dl) + patient scale (VASp) (0-10 scale) + physician scale (VASph) (0-10 scale) + morning stiffness(MST) [min]×0.1) + elevation of upper limbs (EUL) (0-3 scale). All the patients included are treated with glucocorticoid (GC).GC are reduced at each visit until the end of the study, depending on response to treatment and PMR-AS.
FOSFORE study aims at identifying the barriers of cervical cancer screening in Reunion Island and key levers for improvment.
Social insecurity is a significant cost in human terms (health and societal), it defines evil and can be identified as difficulties accessing health and especially water. We chose to take stock of these populations defined by difficulties accessing water as precarious setting. Subjects homeless population fall into this by accident of life, a life "homeless" or migrant subjects often illegally having only transitory access (associative or charitable structures host) the conditions precarious sanitation including drinking water or toilet. Populations of slums in the same conditions or the presence rationed water (one tap for 150 people) restricts hygiene.
The purpose of this active, observational, open-label, non-randomized, post-market surveillance study is to confirm that EDWARDS INTUITY Elite reduces cross clamp time (XCT) in MIS setting when compared to published data with a conventional valve within the MIS setting. The published dataset will used as a control group. Then to describe short term (30 days) and long term (6 months) clinical safety, to assess and compare hemodynamic data with EDWARDS INTUITY Elite to a conventional valve at discharge and at 6 months post AVR, to assess Quality of Life at baseline, and at 6 months post AVR to assess NYHA functional class at baseline, discharge, 1 month and at 6 months post AVR to assess Fitness for hospital discharge.
The TwiCare® device is a removable brace that can be used in orthopedic referred to stimulate mandibular growth or in interception / contention. The proposed research project will focus initially on assessing the comfort and safety of TwiCare® device. The orthopedic efficiency therefore not part of this study. The comfort and safety of the brace will be evaluated firstly by the practitioner during the visit control around 2 ½ months (or 11 weeks) after the start of the port of the device, and with the help of a questionnaire completed by the patient at home 3 weeks and 6 weeks after the start of the port of the device, and during the control visit at 11 weeks.
This study will assess the impact of the novel oral hormonal agents (abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide) among elderly metastatic prostate cancer patients. This study will assess the influence of treatments on patients' cognitive functions on a longitudinal basis and evaluate the quality of life and the adherence of patients who had or develop cognitive disorders.
A Phase 3, randomized, open-label, parallel-group, multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of guadecitabine in participants with MDS or CMML who failed or relapsed after adequate prior treatment with azacitidine, decitabine, or both. This global study will be conducted in approximately 15 countries. Approximately 408 participants from approximately 100 study centers will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to either guadecitabine (approximately 272 participants) or Treatment Choice (approximately 136 participants). The study consists of a 21-day screening period, a treatment period, a safety follow-up visit, and a long-term follow-up period. The study is expected to last more than 2 years, and the duration of individual participant participation will vary. Participants may continue to receive treatment for as long as they continue to benefit.
To assess the value of a dedicated knowledge questionnaire, filled by the patient prior consultation. Indeed, it could allow to target specific shortcomings of patients first, and help the cardiologist to prioritize the other therapeutic education, targeting specifically the information provided.
A pregnancy is considered ''prolonged'' from 41 weeks of gestation. Prolonged Pregnancies (PP) are associated with increased maternal morbidity: emergency caesarean, 3rd and 4th degree perineal lesions and postpartum haemorrhage. Foetuses are at increased risk of oligohydramnios, meconium-staining and Fetal Heart Rate (FHR) anomalies. Around 15% of all pregnancies are prolonged. A Cochrane review on induction of labour showed that a policy of labour induction at or beyond 41 weeks was associated with significantly fewer perinatal deaths. Thus the French College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists stated, "induction of labour can be proposed to patients between 41+0 and 41+6 weeks of gestation". In cases where labour is induced and cervix is unfavourable, cervical ripening is advised. Methods of cervical ripening include pharmacological (prostaglandins) and mechanical (Foley catheter or trans-cervical double balloon) methods. Those two methods were compared in the PROBAAT trial among women with term pregnancies (beyond 37+0). The rates of caesarean section with these two strategies were identical, however uterine hyper stimulation with FHR anomalies occurred less when cervical ripening was mechanical. Considering pharmacological cervical ripening is associated with more uterine hyper stimulation and more FHR anomalies, it may not be the most appropriate in cases of fragile foetuses that include cases of prolonged pregnancies. Considering prolonged pregnancies are associated with a risk of FHR anomalies and that cervical ripening with a pharmacological method is another factor which increases this risk: women with prolonged pregnancies could benefit from a more "gentle" cervical ripening. At present, no particular method is recommended in cases of cervical ripening and prolonged pregnancies. We hypothesise that, in cases of prolonged pregnancies, mechanical cervical ripening, with less uterine hyperstimulation and fewer FHR anomalies, could be more appropriate and could reduce the rate of caesarean section for suspicion of fetal distress.
