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.
Researchers in this study want to compare how well drug radium-223 dichloride (Xofigo) and new (novel) anti-hormonal (NAH) therapy work in participants with prostate gland cancer which has spread to the bone and progressed on or after one line of NAH therapy. Meanwhile researchers want to compare the safety of radium-223 dichloride and NAH therapy. Radium-223 dichloride is known as a radioactive drug that is taken up by bones after it is injected into the body. It works by giving off a type of radioactivity that travels a very short distance and kills the tumor cells that have spread to the bone without major effects to the healthy cells. It has been approved in many countries for the treatment of patients with prostate cancer which has spread to the bone. The NAH drugs used in this study will be either abiraterone acetate (Zytiga) (plus prednisone/prednisolone) or enzalutamide (Xtandi). Both of them are standard approved medications which are used in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer. Participants in this study will receive either Radium-223 dichloride or a NAH therapy. Radium-223 dichloride will be given as an infusion into one of the veins on Day 1 of each 4-week cycle for a total of up to 6 cycles. Oral NAH therapy will be given per the standard approved dose once daily until the disease has progressed. Participants will visit the hospital or clinic every 2 weeks for the first 6 cycles, and only on the first day of each cycle from cycle 7 and onwards. Observation for each participant will last for about 2 years in total. Blood and urine samples will be collected from the participants and participants will be asked to complete questionnaires about the well-being and the pain.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic demyelinating disease of the central nervous system for which the investigators now have many treatment alternatives. These treatments have a preventive goal and the data in the literature suggest the interest in rapidly achieving optimal control of the disease in order to decrease the risk of long-term disability progression. One of the current unmet needs is to have markers that can be used at the individual level to predict the long-term prognosis in order to propose optimal and personalized therapeutic management. Classically used clinical markers do not meet this need. It is recognized that there is a so-called silent course of MS (not measurable by clinical parameters), which may, after several months or years, be expressed as a physical or cognitive disability. MRI is the reference examination for monitoring the sub-clinical activity of the disease but it does not allow the neurodegenerative side of the disease to be assessed. Other blood or imaging markers are being studied but are not yet usable in daily practice. The project aims to evaluate the interest in using digital biomarkers, based on a rapid assessment of patients using a locally developed mobile application (MS Screen Test - MSST) to predict the evolutionary prognosis of the disease.
Phase III, prospective, multi-center, randomized, open label, parallel group, study in patients with HER2-negative breast cancer with residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy with 1:1 allocation to: - Arm A: Sacituzumab govitecan (days 1, 8 q3w for eight cycles); - Arm B: treatment of physician´s choice (TPC, defined as capecitabine or platinum-based chemotherapy for eight cycles or observation. Treatment in either arm will be given for eight cycles. In patients with HR-positive breast cancer, endocrine-based therapy, which includes the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors, will be administered according to local guidelines. The start of endocrine therapy will be at the discretion of the investigator; however, it will be encouraged to start after surgery/radiotherapy in patients without additional cytotoxic agents. Adjuvant pembrolizumab can be given until the completion of radiotherapy before randomization. Within the study the use of pembrolizumab in patients with TNBC who received pembrolizumab as neoadjuvant therapy is allowed as monotherapy in the TPC arm, according to the approval of pembrolizumab in this setting.
Study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of investigational drug obeticholic acid (OCA) in combination with the investigational drug bezafibrate (BZF) in participants with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of brensocatib at 10 mg and 25 mg compared with placebo on the rate of pulmonary exacerbations (PEs) over the 52-week treatment period.
This is a Global Study of Neoadjuvant-Adjuvant Durvalumab or Placebo and FLOT Chemotherapy Followed by Adjuvant Durvalumab or Placebo in Patients with Resectable Gastric and Gastroesophageal Cancer (GC/GEJC) (MATTERHORN).
A phase 2 randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study evaluating the efficacy and safety of AL002 in participants with Early Alzheimer's Disease.
The French Ministry registered the Fenestrated Anaconda ™ on the List of Reimbursable Products and Services (LPPR) by the French Health Insurance on February 2018 for a duration of 5 years, while taking up the conditions for carrying out the act recommended by the CNEDiMTS (Committee in charge of medical device review), namely the carrying out of a post-registration study for the renewal of the authorization. This renewal of registration is conditioned by the set-up of a long-term follow-up study of all patients treated with the Fenestrated Anaconda ™ in France. To do this, this study will be carried out in partnership with the Federation of Medical Specialties (FSM) and the National Professional Council (CNP) of Vascular Surgery in order to have the data necessary for the renewal of the registration of the Fenestrated Anaconda ™ from the registry called Datavasc developed by the CNP and available online on the FSM's electronic platform.
This is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, global Phase 3 study to assess the efficacy and safety of monalizumab and cetuximab, compared to placebo and cetuximab, in Participants with recurrent or metastatic head and neck cancer.
This study will compare the efficacy and safety of belzutifan + lenvatinib versus cabozantinib in participants with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with clear cell component after prior therapy. The primary hypothesis is that belzutifan + lenvatinib is superior to cabozantinib in terms of progression-free survival or overall survival.
