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 main objective of this pilot study is to make a first assessment of the discriminating ability of a dosage of S100B protein for differential diagnosis between primary headaches and secondary headaches. For this, the investigators will compare serum S100B protein between two groups of headache patients presenting at the emergency department: 1 group of primary headache patients and 1 group of secondary headache patients. If the difference between the two groups proves potentially discriminating, the investigators will seek to determine the discriminating ability of the S100B protein by calculating the area under the ROC curve. The reference diagnostic will be set at one month across the entire clinical picture and imaging by an expert committee composed of a neurologist, a radiologist and an emergency physician.
The place of analysis of organ dysfunction in relation to the diagnosis of nosocomial pneumonia in intensive care is not yet defined.
This is a 4-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group and active controlled study. Patients will be randomized (1 to 1 ratio) to a 4-week double-blind treatment period of either FDC (fixed-dose combination) of tiotropium + olodaterol (5/5 µg) plus placebo or the free combination of tiotropium 5 µg and olodaterol 5 µg; all administered via the Respimat® inhaler. The purpose is to show non-inferiority between the FDC and the free combination of tiotropium and olodaterol in patients with COPD.
Study 1 and Study 3 are the prospective, merged analyses of 2 identical double-blind, placebo-controlled studies, ZX008-1501 and ZX008-1502, to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of ZX008 when used as adjunctive therapy in pediatric and young adult subjects with Dravet syndrome. Study 1501 and Study 1502 were conducted in parallel; Study 1501 was conducted at approximately 30 study sites in North America; Study 1502 was conducted at approximately 30 study sites in Europe, Asia and Australia. Upon completion of the Baseline Period after initial Screening and Baseline charting of seizure frequency, subjects who qualified for the studies were randomized (1:1:1) in a double-blind manner to receive either 1 of 2 doses of ZX008 (0.2 mg/kg/day or 0.8 mg/kg/day; maximum dose: 30 mg/day) or placebo. Randomization was stratified by age group (< 6 years, ≥6 to 18 years) to achieve balance across treatment arms, with the target of 25% of subjects in each age group. All subjects were titrated to their randomized dose over a 14-day Titration Period. Following titration, subjects continued treatment at their randomly assigned dose over a 12-week Maintenance Period. Subjects exiting the study underwent a 2-week taper, unless they enrolled in a follow-on study. Subjects were followed for post-study safety monitoring.
This is a proof of concept study. The aim of this study is to assess a device measuring rheological properties of human sputum of four populations : - 10 patients with Broncho Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) - 10 patients with asthma - 10 patients with cystic fibrosis - 10 healthy volunteers.
Breast augmentation is among the most popular surgical procedures performed in the world with approximately 1,773,584 performed in 2013. This surgical intervention generates important pains during postsurgical recovery. A multimodal analgesia, based on the recommendations is proposed to the patients .The pectoral nerve block is an innovative technique of locoregional anesthesia that has already been successfully used in breast surgery. Its realization is fast, simple, and it would be superior compared with a paravertebral block within the framework of mastectomy. The interest of this technique has never been assessed in esthetic breast surgery. The aim of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of the association of " Pecs blocks 1 and 2 " on pain intensity after breast augmentation surgery.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the use of Protein Assistant on the daily protein intake in obese patients who underwent a bariatric surgery (in the 3 months following surgery).
This phase 4 study will explore, in the context of the present French clinical practice, the impact of florbetaben 18F (FBB) in patients evaluated for AD who require a biomarker for etiologic determination of the cognitive and functional impairment, but in whom: 1. lumbar puncture was not feasible for medical conditions 2. results of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis were considered ambiguous by treating physicians 3. lumbar puncture (LP) was refused by the patient
The primary purpose is to evaluate the level of physical activity in patients with knee osteoarthritis in a spa treatment and doing epidemiological study about this patient.
The aim of this study is to show that the performance of Novosyn® Quick suture material is comparable with other suture material used for skin closure. In order to show that, various safety and efficacy parameters have been selected. The outcome regarding these parameters will be evaluated by a quantitative summary of the available clinical data from the literature.
