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.
Congenital heart diseases (CHD) are the firt cause of congenital malformations (8 for 1000 births). Since the 90's, great advances in prenatal diagnosis, pediatric cardiac surgery, intensive care, and cardiac catheterization have reduced morbidity and early mortality in this population. Nowadays, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) assessment of this population is in the foreground. Our team is a tertiary care center for management of patients with CHD, from the fetal period to adulthood. The investigators have been conducting a clinical research program on HRQoL in pediatric and CHD. The investigators thus demonstrated the link between cardiopulmonary fitness and HRQoL in children with CHD aged 8 to 18 years, the correlation between functional class and HRQoL in adults with CHD, the impact of therapeutic education on HRQoL in children under anticoagulants and the lack of difference between the HRQoL of children CHD aged 5 to 7 years old and that of control children. Currently, no controlled cross-sectional quality of life study assessment has been leded in the youngest children with CHD. This present study therefore extends our work in younger children aged 2 to 4 years.
Women with history of tumor response insufficient to allow complete cytoreductive surgery after three cycles of previous neoadjuvant systemic carboplatin-paclitaxel chemotherapy will be prospectively recruited in this trial. After signed consent and if unresectability is confirmed, patients will undergo three cycles of doxorubicin-cisplatin PIPAC chemotherapy associated with systemic carboplatin-paclitaxel chemotherapy (alternating PIPAC and intravenous chemotherapy sessions over 3 cycles of 4 weeks). The primary objective of the study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MDT). During cycle 1, limiting dose toxicity must be collected as soon as it is known. Each patients will be treated at the dose recommended by the CRM (Continual Reassessment Method ) algorithm conditional on dose-limiting toxicity during Cycle 1. The dose escalation will be guided by CRM to determine the recommended dose of PIPAC chemotherapy for phase II trial. Secondary objectives are : - to evaluate the anatomopathological response, the radiologic tumoral response and the evolution of the peritoneal cancer extent, to the combined chemotherapy - to describe the pharmacokinetic of the PIPAC chemotherapy - to investigate the KELIM parameter as a predictive marker in the response sensitivity of the combined chemotherapy treatment - and to evaluate the safety of the combined chemotherapy. During the first day of the first cycle, blood samples will be collected to measure doxorubicin and cisplatin (pharmacokinetic study). Along these 3 cycles, the dose of antigen CA-125 will be performed before each chemotherapies (intraperitoneal or intravenous). At the end of combined chemotherapy treatment, patients will undergo radiologic tumoral response by imaging assessment (scanner or MRI) and a last dosage of CA-125 will be realized.. In case of a complete / partial response / stabilization (RECIST criteria v.1.) on the imaging, re-evaluation for resectability will be done. If resectable disease, cytoreductive surgery will be programmed and a post-operative visit 1 month later will be realized. Otherwise for patients with progress disease or unresectable the participation in the study will be finished.
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D[s]) of JNJ-75276617 in Part 1 (Dose Escalation) and to determine safety and tolerability at the RP2D(s) in Part 2 (Dose Expansion).
This retrospective multicenter observational study will provide real-life efficacy and tolerance data for patients with relapsed multiple myeloma (RMM) treated with carfilzomib in the context of nominative expanded access and compassionate use in France, and will allow to evaluate healthcare practices from data obtained during the use of carfilzomib for routine care. Nominative expanded access was open in February 2014 and stopped in march 2016, then relayed by the compassionate program (march 2016- February 2017).
This is a multi-center screening study with the primary objective to determine the prevalence of KIT D816V mutation in peripheral blood in patients with evidence of systemic mast cell activation (MCA).
Mutations in the MARS gene encoding methionyl-tRNA synthetase are responsible for a genetic form of alveolar proteinosis (PAP), but the pathophysiological mechanisms of the respiratory phenotype are not known. The main hypothesis is that the PAP phenotype in these patients is secondary to a defective clearance of the surfactant by the alveolar macrophages. The main objective of the study is to study the clearance capacity of lipoproteinaceous material by macrophages of patients with MARS related PAP. This will be investigate in cultured macrophages derived from peripheral blood monocytes of patients (patients with MARS related PAP) and controls (patients without MARS related PAP).
Hospital admission for infant bronchiolitis is associated with an increased risk of recurrent wheezing and subsequent asthma in childhood. In the literature, 17 to 60% of children will develop repeated wheezing (infant asthma in France). This highly variable incidence could be linked in part to the fact that the definition of bronchiolitis varies between continents. In Europe the usual definition is an acute and contagious viral infection which affects the bronchioles (small bronchi) of infants accompanied by coughing, rapid breathing and wheezing. In research studies, bronchiolitis must be associated with wheezing and / or crackles on auscultation in Europe, and wheezing imperatively in the USA. The diagnosis of wheezing is difficult, and medical agreement on auscultatory respiratory abnormalities is poor. We thus have developed a wheezing diagnostic tool using artificial intelligence processing of respiratory sound recordings by smartphone (Bokov P, Comput Biol Med 2016, DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiomed.2016.01.002). In a second larger bicentric study that included only infants suspected of bronchiolitis, our approach has consisted in obtaining a recording by smartphone but also by electronic stethoscope in order to allow deferred listening of the sounds (WheezSmart study). The objective of these studies was to obtain a formal diagnosis of wheezing, the current project aims to assess the benefit of this diagnosis. The main objective of this cross-sectional study is to determine whether the formal presence (diagnosis of wheezing from a recording of pulmonary auscultation) is associated with the risk of childhood asthma (diagnosis of asthma at 6 years) regardless of the usual risk factors (atopic / allergic terrain, exposure to smoking, recurrence of symptoms). The secondary objectives are to determine whether the formal presence of wheezing on auscultation is a risk factor for subsequent repeated wheezing (diagnosis of infant asthma) and for initial disease severity (bronchiolitis) compared to SpO2 and admission of the child to hospital. The interest in differentiating between high and low frequency sibilants will be evaluated also.
Investigators hypothesize that the implementation of a hospital pharmacy consultation and the transmission of its report to pharmacies may improve knowledge, adherence and encourage the development of pharmacist medication reviews. A before-and-after study of the implementation of pharmaceutical consultations will allow the investigators to evaluate the validity of the hypothesis.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of sotatercept (MK-7962, formerly called ACE-011) treatment (plus background pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) therapy) versus placebo (plus background PAH therapy) on time to clinical worsening (TTCW) in participants who are newly diagnosed with PAH and are at intermediate or high risk of disease progression.
Neurophysiologic evaluation of disorders of consciousness (DOC) patients in intensive care unit include late auditory evoked potentials. It allows the physicians to record cerebral responses of patients to auditory stimuli and in particularly to their own name (as the P3a response). Numerous studies try to improve the relevance of the auditory stimuli used in this paradigm and notably using more expressive stimuli. Here the investigators investigate the intracerebral correlates of the P3a responses recorded on the scalp with neutral and more expressive stimuli.
