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.
Functional neurological disorders are an important subgroup of patients with stroke mimics admitted to stroke unit.Their clinical profile and outcome are poorly known. The goal of this study is to describe the cognitive and behavioral profile of stroke mimics patients, without evidence of neurological disease.
Our objective is to determine a prognostic score including CT, clinical and biological criteria predicting the serious (death / surgery) or non-serious (medical treatment) evolution of ischemic colitis and therefore possibly modify the therapeutic management (propose surgical treatment for a severe form based on prognostic score).
This is a study for participants with a type of blood cancer called mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). The main purpose is to compare pirtobrutinib (LOXO-305) to other drugs that work in a similar way that have already been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA). Participation could last up to two years, and possibly longer, if the disease does not progress.
Amyloidosis is a disease caused by the continuous accumulation of fibrillary proteins in the extracellular matrix causing the architecture of different organs to be disrupted. The prevalence of the disease increases with age. The two most common forms are light chain amyloidosis (AL) and transthyretin (TTR). TTR amyloidosis may be hereditary (m-TTR, or mutated) or age-related (WT-TTR, or wild). The latter is also called senile amyloidosis. In all these forms, cardiac impairment is common and leads the patient to consult/or be referred to a cardiological center unfortunately often too late when the prognosis is directly related to the severity of the heart attack. The description/discovery of clinical signs prior to heart disease is important to improve the detection and diagnosis of early forms of cardiac amyloidosis (CA). For example, an infiltration of the carpal tunnel synovial by amyloid deposits is observed in some patients, 5 years before the onset of signs of heart failure and is the only warning sign of the disease known to date. We also showed in a previous study that patients had more severe and earlier impairment of hearing function than expected by age and gender. Objective The main objective is to define the prevalence and severity of smell and taste disorders in a population of patients with cardiac amyloidosis (3 types of mutated or wild AL amyloidosis and TTR). The main endpoint is to determine the number of patients with impaired smell and taste's functions in a population of patients diagnosed with cardiac amyloidosis (3 types of mutated (hereditary) or senile wild amyloidosis (3 types of AL amyloidosis and TTR). Method Successive monocentric cross-sectional study on the screening of smell and taste disorders carried out as part of a cardiology hospitalization programmed for the cardiology follow-up of his pathology in a population of patients diagnosed with AC.
Diaphragm dysfunction, are refractory to drug therapy. This encourage investigators to explore new non-drug therapeutic paths, such as plantar reflexology (RP). The investigators proposed a comparison of the evolution of different parameters, quantitative and qualitative, to identify biomarkers and highlight the specific effect of RP on the diaphragm function, compared to placebo.
In this clinical study, the investigators will compare vital parameters measurements obtained using continuous data from reference monitors and continuous wireless MultiSense® monitoring patch in 60 post-ICU (Intensive Care Unit) patients and over 7 days.
Donepezil, as well as the other symptomatic drugs of Alzheimer's disease, is not any more reimbursed by the French healthcare system, due to a controversy about its efficiency. French health authorities currently preconize a non-rug approach based on cognitive remediation or stimulation. The aim of this study is to compare the efficiency of the 2 approaches (non-drug versus donepezil) on the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease after 6 months of treatment.
Kidney and liver transplantation requires a fine tuning of immune responses in order to achieve long term operational tolerance with immunosuppressants or immune modulators. Numerous experimental findings indicate that CD4+ FOXP3 expressing regulatory T (Treg) cells play a central role in the induction of tolerance to the grafts indicating that the use of Treg cells may be an innovative therapeutic strategy in kidney transplantation that would enable the diminution of immunosuppressive drugs or even their discontinuation, thus decreasing their risk of adverse events. As human Treg cells represent less than 10% of CD4+ T cells, and because it has been shown in mice that a dose of 2*104 polyclonal Tregs/g was necessary to induce tolerance in animal models of solid organ transplantation, it is mandatory to expand human Treg cells ex vivo, after isolating them from peripheral blood. The investigators previously defined a protocol for Treg cell isolation and expansion in clinical grade conditions (cGMP) that enabled us to obtain the expected number of expanded cells maintaining high levels of FOXP3 (3). The investigators therefore hypothesize in humans, as it has been already shown in mice, that the infusion of autologous expanded polyclonal Treg cells would lead to the obtaining of operational tolerance in kidney and liver graft in association with classical immunosuppressants and an expectable diminution of those. To this end, it is necessary to have pre-clinical batches of expanded Treg cells validated by the National Agency for Medicines and Health Products Safety validate (ANSM). The investigators therefore plan to have 4 batches from 2 liver transplant patients and 2 kidney transplant patients validated.

A growing number of children with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) or nocturnal alveolar hypoventilation syndrome are treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or nocturnal non-invasive ventilation (NIV) therapy. The compliance of the child and his caregivers with CPAP / NIV therapy may be challenging. The use of an educational game (Yapouni) aims at improving communication around CPAP / NIV between the child and his caregivers, and may facilitate the compliance with CPAP / NIV at home, by increasing the motivation for using CPAP / NIV at home. The aim of the study is to assess the parents' feelings regarding the use of CPAP / NIV on day 0 (D0) and one month (D30) later in a standard group: therapeutic education (TEP) versus a group: TEP + Yapouni.
