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.
Patients with type 1 diabetes have poorer glycemic control that could lead to macrovascular or neuropathic complications; in addition to an optimal treatment, prevention of diabetes complications requires to control associated risk factors, such as hypertension or dyslipidemia. Sleep apnea syndrome is a public health problem due to its high prevalence and marked morbidity and mortality, one increasingly interesting aspect is its relationship with metabolic disorders, specifically diabetes.Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome seems to be underestimated in this population. In this context, it appears to be important to estimate the prevalence of sleep respiratory diseases in patients with type 1 diabetes.
Background : Apelin and its receptor APJ have been implicated in pathologies including cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity. Little is known about the function of the apelinergic system during gestation. Objective : The main objective of this study is to compare apelinemia in fasting normal weight and obese women at the end of pregnancy, between 35 and 41 weeks of gestation (WG). Strategy and method: A prospective research evaluating will be conducted to compare apelinemia in fasting normal weight and obese women at the end of pregnancy, between 35 and 41 weeks of gestation (WG). A third group will be created to check if gestational diabetes is not a confounding factor in obesity (group of obese women with gestational diabetes). Investigators will try to see if apelinemia is correlated to lipidic and glycemic markers. Samples will be collected in the cord blood to compare maternal and neonatal apelinemia and to see if neonatal apelinemia is correlated to the child's weight and birth size and to the weight of the placenta. Placenta samples will be collected and RT-qPCR will be done to analyze RNA in each group. Two days after delivery, obese and not obese women will be fasted and plasma and colostrum will be collected. Investigators will compare apelin levels in the colostrum between these 2 groups and then investigators will try to see if apelin level is correlated in the colostrum and in maternal plasma.
The purpose of this survey is to collect visual acuity data from patients with LHON in order to establish the clinical course (natural history) and visual acuity outcomes in patients with a genetically confirmed diagnosis of LHON. In addition, this survey will generate data that will serve as comparator for the open-label study SNT-IV-006.
This non-randomized, multicenter, open-label, Phase III clinical study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of emicizumab administered subcutaneously initially once weekly (QW) in pediatric participants with hemophilia A with FVIII inhibitors. This study will open two additional non-randomized cohorts to investigate once every 2 weeks (Q2W) and once every 4 weeks (Q4W) regimens in pediatric participants.
This was a randomized, double-blind, active control study of the enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) drug PRX-102 (pegunigalsidase alfa) in Fabry disease patients with impaired renal function. Patients who had been treated for approximately 1 year with agalsidase beta and who had been on a stable dose of that product for at least 6 months were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to either switch to PRX-102 or to continue treatment with agalsidase beta. Both treatments were delivered by intravenous infusions every two weeks, at a dosage of 1 mg/kg.
- Background : Deep brain stimulation of SubThalamic Nucleus (STN-DBS) is an effective treatment for a large variety of movement disorders. However, the efficacy of STN-DBS relies on unclear mechanisms. - Purpose: In this study, using optical imaging, the investigators will evaluate the cortical hemodynamic changes induced by STN-DBS of parkinsonian patients during motor task and delay discounting task. the investigators will perform an optical imaging study using Near-InfraRed Spectroscopy (NIRS) in a parkinsonian patient after STN-DBS. The investigators will measure bilateral local cortical hemodynamic changes under "On" and "Off" stimulation conditions and during a motor task (left hand movement) and delay discounting task Relative concentration changes of oxy-Hb, deoxy-Hb, and total Hb will be continuously analyze. - Primary outcome: Study of local cortical hemodynamic change (oxy-Hb, deoxy-Hb, and total Hb) under " on " and " off " stimulation during a motor task.
The purpose of this study of capmatinib (INC280) and spartalizumab (PDR001) was to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and antitumor activity of spartalizumab administered intravenously (i.v.) as a single agent or in combination with capmatinib administered orally in adult patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
The emergence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has prompted a search for a thorough understanding of the biology of one of its major causative agents, the hepatitis C virus (HCV). HCV particles acquire via budding and encapsidation cellular proteins. There is mounting evidence on several viral species that virion-bound proteins are prone to be involved either at the replication, budding/egress or entry/release steps of the viral cycle. Identifying such targets may yield ideal candidates for gaining insight on the dependence of HCV upon a restricted subset of host proteins, therefore providing refined sets of genetically stable targets for therapy. This project's goals are to set up adequate conditions for robust and reproducible purification of HCV virions in clinical samples, followed by the identification of their HCV-bound host proteins and the characterization of their functions. Proteomics profiling of HCV particles purified from clinical samples will be overlaid with proteins identified and characterized in cell culture grown HCV particles during my post-doctoral training, using clinical biomarker discovery grade criteria. Targets identified in both samples sets will be subjected to in vitro investigations using HCV-replicating cells. Conventional biochemical and imaging methods will be used in order to: (i) ascertain their physical association with HCV virions; (ii) define the modalities of their interaction with HCV proteins; (iii) decipher the topology and subcellular localization of their association with HCV proteins and virions; (iv) quantitatively assess their functional involvement in particle budding, egress or secretion and infectivity. A candidate that yielded satisfactory results in these experiments will be disclosed and further investigated at the level of structural biology, in collaborative research programs.
The purpose of this study is to specify the psychological, cognitive, neuro-functional and genetic profile associated with binge drinker behaviors among young adults. Results will help identifying more precisely vulnerability factors associated with this pattern of alcohol consumption and guiding prevention efforts.
The purpose of this study is to characterise long-term safety and tolerability of intravenous anifrolumab.
