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.
Hematology patients are frequently treated in hospital for aplasia. Patients are then placed in protective isolation room. This situation of protective isolation can represent a significant source of stress and anxiety for the patient. Hypnosis is already used to treat anxiety in patients with cancer. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of virtual reality medical hypnosis sessions on anxiety and chronic pain of patients hospitalized for aplasia in order to broaden the supportive care proposals in the clinical hematology service of Sévigné Private Hospital.
The year 2020 was marked by the emergence of a new respiratory disease: COVID19 related to an infection with the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (name given by the WHO on February 11, 2020). Initially appearing in China, in the province of Hubei, this epidemic has rapidly spread to be declared a global pandemic on March 12, 2020 by the WHO.Given the current context of the COVID-19 epidemic, strict hygiene measures have been taken in scanning rooms with systematic bio-cleaning. Strategies have been modified as a matter of urgency, with changes in the practices of electro radiology manipulators who work in "isolation" to avoid contamination. The number of scanners has increased exponentially following the curve of the epidemic, making it more and more difficult to systematically check the images before the patient leaves the room. To ensure sufficient image quality for interpretation of all scans, a complementary acquisition in ULD, with very low exposure, was systematically added to the acquisition protocol. The standard acquisition in LD, associated with this acquisition in ULD remain well below the diagnostic reference thresholds dictated by the nuclear safety authority (NRD: 350 mGy.cm. In Nîmes: LD: 100 to 150 mGy.cm and ULD: < 15 mGy.cm). These two acquisitions allow us to avoid breathing and movement artifacts, etc., without having to have the patients return for a new scan in case of a bad acquisition. This avoids an overexposure of the staff to the risk of infection by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The main objective of this retrospective study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of ULD vs. LD for the accurate diagnosis of COVID-19 pneumopathy which presents a particular ground glass pattern Our study will demonstrate that the ULD scanner can be used in the search for COVID-19 pneumopathy and thus limit the exposure of patients to X-rays, especially since thoracic scans are often repeated.
Arteriopathy of the lower limbs (ALL) is defined by a decreased ankle perfusion pressure with a systolic pressure index (SPI) <0.9, and constitutes the most advanced situation in terms of cardiovascular prognosis with in 20 % of cases of lesions associated with the heart and / or coronary heart. The severity of ALL is linked to the risk of a cardiovascular event, hence the need for a hemodynamic evaluation which is mainly based on the measurement of SPI.
A clinical trial of AAV5-hRKp.RPGR vector for participants with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP)
To compare the efficacy of the addition of a therapeutic education program combined with nursing phone follow-up, compared to conventional management alone, on the management of adverse events (AEs) related to adjuvant hormone therapy during the first year of treatment in patients with non-metastatic breast cancer.
Study CA239-0006 is an open-label, randomized Phase 3 clinical trial comparing the efficacy of MRTX849 administered in combination with cetuximab versus chemotherapy in the second-line treatment setting in patients with CRC with KRAS G12C mutation.
The trial is open to all patients with a diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) who are PCR-positive for the PML-RARα transcript and less than 18 years of age.
This work consists, first of all, in making an inventory of the physiotherapy of the patient undergoing cardiac surgery under high flow oxygenation at the CHRU NANCY. Then, in a second step, the impact of the physiotherapy on the lung ultrasound score associated or not with the NIV of the patient under OHD after cardiac surgery will be studied. The objective is therefore to answer the following research question: what is the impact of a physiotherapy session with or without non-invasive ventilation in patients receiving high flow oxygenation after cardiac surgery on the lung ultrasound score measured by ultrasound? Main hypothesis: Physiotherapy is associated with NIV when it is prescribed in patients undergoing high flow oxygenation after cardiac surgery. Secondary hypothesis: Physiotherapy + NIV further improves pulmonary aeration versus physiotherapy + high flow oxygenation.
Evaluation of the clinical safety and effectiveness of hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lens
PREV-HAP study is part of a larger project entitled 'Host-targeted Approaches for the Prevention and the treatment of Hospital-Acquired Pneumonia' (HAP2), funded by the European Union's H2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement N°847782. HAP2 aims to develop stratified host-directed drugs and biomarkers to enhance the prevention and the treatment of HAP and develop precision medicine in infectious diseases. Its ambition is to revolutionize the management of HAP: capitalising on the novel concept of critical-illness related immunosuppression altering the host-pathogens interactions, the aim is to propose a complete reappraisal of the physiopathology of HAP based on the concept of respiratory dysbiosis. The main hypothesis of the PREV-HAP study is that human recombinant Interferon gamma 1b (rHuIFN-γ, Imukin) treatment can restore immunity in critically ill patients and prevent Hospital-Acquired Pneumonia. The hypothesesis is that the in vivo investigations of the host-pathogens interactions can be used for the stratification of patients into high/low risk and responders/non-responders to host-targeted prevention of hospital-acquired infections. The involvement of a state of critical-illness related immunosuppression in the susceptibility to hospital-acquired pneumonia is widely accepted, and an emerging trend is that the development of drugs for the treatment of this acquired immunosuppression will prevent infection and enhance outcomes of hospitalized patients. It has been demonstrated that the productions of IFN-γ by immune cells are decreased in critically ill patients, and that these defects are associated with the susceptibility to HAP. rHuIFN-γ has neither been tested nor is recommended as adjunctive treatment of patients with HAP. Based on these specific factors identified in the host response, it is proposed in this study to use rHuIFN-γ as novel preventive approach for HAP.
