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 phase II study was to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of DFV890 in participants with FCAS.
A phase 1/2 open-label multicenter study will be performed with an initial dose escalation part to determine the MTD and/or the RP2D of MCLA-129 as monotherapy in patients with NSCLC, HNSCC, GC/GEJ, ESCC, or other solid tumors and who have progressed after receiving prior therapy for advanced/metastatic disease.
The investigators aim to explore the inter tumor heterogeneity by a proteomic approach of a wide series of rhabdoid tumors, from both intra and extra cranial origins.
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a rare inherited metabolic disorder (OMIM 264800, frequency 1/25000) characterized by progressive ectopic calcification of connective tissues. PXE mainly affects the skin (inesthetic papules and plaques in the skin folds), the retina (central blindness), the vasculature (peripheral arterial occlusive disease and stroke) and the renal system (renal lithiasis) in adulthood. Although rarely, early lethal forms have been reported. This chronic and highly disabling condition results from a loss of function of the gene encoding for the ABCC6 membrane transporter primarily expressed in the hepatocytes and renal tubular cells. Recently, it has been reported that PXE was characterized by a 50-60% decrease in the plasma level of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi), a major physiological anti-calcifying factor. PXE is an incurable disease which therapeutic options are limited to symptomatic treatments to stem the devastating effect of the ectopic calcifications. Recently, encouraging proof of concept studies with animals PXE models and healthy volunteers have shown that, contrary to what was initially reported and thought, the oral administration of PPi salts are able to increase PPi plasma levels, opening up new therapeutic perspectives in PXE. Therefore, we propose to perform the first Phase II randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a daily and oral administration of PPi salts against placebo in PXE patients.
The FIRST cluster randomized trial will evaluate the effect of 1) a training program encouraging general practitioners to offer smoking cessation treatment as a default choice to all current smokers consulting a general practitioner (GP), and 2) an interactive, electronic decision aid to guide smoking cessation treatment, on the proportion of current smokers seen in primary care who have quit smoking 6 months after a baseline visit to their GP, as compared to enhanced usual care.
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are prone to breathlessness, chest tightness and other anxiety-inducing symptoms. Medical therapy for the condition focus on improving these symptoms and preventing exacerbations. However, as the disease progresses, pharmacological therapies become less and less effective. Patients with advanced COPD often feel less benefit from the treatment in terms of relief from their symptoms and relief from anxiety about their breathing. Hypnosis is known to induce immediate changes in how a person thinks and experiences their body. These changes can break vicious cycles of anxiety. Hypnosis has already been used successfully people with breathing problems to reduce anxiety and improve breathing. This trial aims to investigate the effect of hypnosis as a complementary technique for the self-management of breathlessness and anxiety during a Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program (PRP). As a secondary measure, the investigators aim to uncover whether the use of self-hypnosis remains useful during the three months following the PRP, after discharge from hospital.
This is a multicentre, prospective, randomised, double-blinded, group-sequential, parallel-group, adaptive design, phase 3 study to demonstrate the haemostatic efficacy and safety of four-factor prothrombin complex concentrate, OCTAPLEX, in patients with acute major bleeding on DOAC therapy with factor Xa inhibitor. Patients will be randomised 1:1 to either of two study groups: low-dose vs. high-dose OCTAPLEX.
Schizophrenia is a serious, disabling and unfortunately common disease. Its prevalence is in the order of 0.6 to 1% in the general population, a figure that remains relatively stable in the various cultures. The overall prognosis, particularly in terms of function, remains largely negative. The investigators know that a global management can considerably slow down this unfavourable evolution: according to the recommendations, the patient suffering from schizophrenia requires an effective and well-tolerated pharmacotherapy, associated with an adapted psychotherapy as well as cognitive remediation workshops, training in social skills, and psycho-education. There are indeed a large number of studies that have shown these elements in patients with schizophrenic disorders that have been present for several years. The investigators now know that early treatment is a key prognostic element. Indeed, the earlier care is provided during the first psychotic episode, the better the subsequent prognosis: the probability of further decompensation is reduced, as is the risk of developing deficits, such as cognitive difficulties. However, there is a lack of access to all the recommended aspects of management in the initial phase of the disorder, particularly concerning early psycho-educational programmes for patients, which have been relatively little studied in clinical research. In this context, it seems relevant to study the impact of a new programme of this type on a fundamental parameter, conditioning the subsequent access to care: the therapeutic alliance. "PPIC" is a short psycho-educational programme in 4 sessions, specifically designed to accompany young patients, and focused on the issues of this crucial period of the care process.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of bepranemab versus (vs) placebo on the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) up to Week 80 in study participants with prodromal or mild Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
Barrett Esophagus is a common pathology, with an estimated prevalence of 1.6% at risk of progression to precancerous mucosa (low to high grade dysplasia). The incidence of adenocarcinoma on BE is 0.5% per year. In the event of dysplasia or cancer in situ, it is currently recommended at international and particularly European level to eradicate BE. The treatment techniques used to date carry out thermal destruction of the BE, in particular by radiofrequency. Eradication of dysplasia is achieved in 81% to 100% and disappearance of BE in 73% to 87% of cases. It requires an average of 3 destruction sessions. RF does not allow histological analysis after destruction of BE, but the risk of progression to neoplasia is estimated at 7.8/1000 persons per year. This risk could be due to the presence of glands buried in the esophageal mucosa. Indeed, these glands are not destroyed by thermal ablation methods, and remain invisible during endoscopic controls. A new treatment technique using the Endorotor® system allows mechanical resection of the entire mucosa in one session of treatment. In addition, the cost of these thermal destruction techniques currently limits their wider diffusion. It is therefore legitimate to propose a less expensive and probably more effective alternative technique.
