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.
This multicenter, randomized, double-blind study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of atezolizumab (MPDL3280A) administered with nab-paclitaxel compared with placebo in combination with nab-paclitaxel in participants with locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who have not received prior systemic therapy for metastatic breast cancer (mBC). The safety of single-agent nab-paclitaxel has been determined in previous studies of participants with mBC and the safety data to date suggest that atezolizumab can be safely combined with standard chemotherapy agents.
PHASE: IV TYPE OF STUDY: With direct benefit DESCRIPTIVE: multicenter, open-label, uncontrolled trial INCLUSION CRITERIA: Adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis who failed corticosteroids and immunosupressive therapy, or are intolerant to immunosuppressors. All included patients will be naïve to anti-TNF therapy. Active disease at golimumab treatment initiation defined as a MAYO score ≥6 and with an endoscopic sub score ≥2. OBJECTIVE: To determine the proportion of patients with Continuous Clinical Response (CCR) and endoscopic remission after one year of golumimab at week 54. STUDY DESIGN: Induction Phase : Week 0: golimumab 200mg- Week 2: golimumab 100 mg- Week 6: golimumab 50 mg Maintenance Phase I : Week 10-Week 54 Week 10-Week 54 • Patients with primary clinical response*: Standard regimen with golimumab 50 mg Q4W (or 100 mg Q4W if > 80 kg) - Patients without primary clinical response at week 10 or with flare between week 10-week 54*: Optimization to 100 mg Q4W (or combination therapy with azathioprine if > 80 kg or switch from azathioprine to methotrexate if already on azathioprine at golimumab initiation or patient with known intolerance to thiopurines) - Early escape at Week 18: Primary non-responders who are still not responding at week 18 to dose optimization at Weeks 10 and 14 will be considered treatment failures and will be followed up (call or visit) at week 54 for safety. - Clinical response is defined as a decrease from baseline in the Mayo score ≥30% and ≥3 points, accompanied by either a rectal bleeding sub score of 0 or 1 or a decrease from baseline in the rectal bleeding sub score ≥1 Intermittent Phase II : Week 54-Week 108 • Patients with CCR and MH at week 54 and on golimumab 50 mg every 4 weeks: Stop golimumab and continuation of thiopurines or methotrexate if on combination therapy • Patients with CCR and MH at week 54 and on golimumab 100 mg every 4 weeks: De-escalation to 50 mg every 4 weeks and continuation of thiopurines or methotrexate if on combination therapy • Restart/Escalate golimumab on flare (defined in section 4 of the protocol) to the phase I dose; 50 mg q4wk or 100mg q4wk (similar to the phase I regimen)
PHASE : IV TYPE OF STUDY : With direct benefit. DESCRIPTIVE : Multicentre, randomized, open label study. INCLUSION CRITERIA : Acute severe ulcerative colitis. OBJECTIVES : To compare the efficacy and safety of early administration of the combination therapy with infliximab and azathioprine with steroids and azathioprine in patients with acute severe ulcerative colitis treated with intravenous steroids. STUDY TREATMENTS : All patients : Intravenous steroids (0.8 mg/kg/day of methylprednisolone or equivalent) for 5 days. Combination therapy arm: Infliximab 5 mg/kg plus Azathioprine 2-2.5 mg/kg/day. Azathioprine arm: Steroids tapering for 3 months and Azathioprine 2-2.5 mg/kg/day.
Diagnoses and follow up of muscles diseases lack imaging. Severity assessment of masticatory dysfunction and follow up of treatment effectiveness is currently based only on clinical features. Supersonic ShearWave Imaging® is a new, non-invasive, non-irradiating and dynamic imaging technique that uses ultrasound and allows shear wave elastic modulus in a muscle in order to study its viscoelastic properties. In this study, the investigators study the correlation between changes of shear wave elastography modulus and surface electromyogram features of the masseters between rest and maximal voluntary contraction.
International clinical trial to compare ponesimod and teriflunomide in relapsing multiple sclerosis
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a new thickened formula on regurgitation.
A limited number of relatively contradictory studies have suggested that the development of serious ototoxicity in children treated with cisplatin or, more rarely, carboplatin could be partly related to genetic risk factors affecting detoxification enzymes and membrane transporters of platinum derivatives. The objective of this study is therefore to identify genetic variants associated with the development of platinum ototoxicity in patients treated with cisplatin or carboplatin (minimum follow-up of 3 years) for one of the following diseases: neuroblastoma, hepatoblastoma, retinoblastoma, malignant germ cell tumour, osteosarcoma, high-risk or recurrent Wilms' tumour, non-parameningealrhabdomyosarcoma. A total of 180 patients, corresponding to 60 cases with grade 3 or 4 ototoxicity and 120 controls with no signs of ototoxicity (separate complete audiograms for each ear) will be included. A saliva sample will be used to obtain DNA for pharmacogenetic studies. The value of this study will be to define a population at high risk of developing ototoxicity in order to adapt treatment, or even develop preventive treatment of ototoxicity based on antioxidant medications
The purpose of this study is to evaluate endoscopic remission at Week 26 as assessed by ileocolonoscopy.
This study evaluates the safety as well as the potential clinical efficacy of an adoptive transfer of CD8+ T cells, sorted with HLA-peptide multimers and specific for Melan-A and MELOE-1 melanoma antigens, to patients suffering from advanced metastatic melanoma (stages IIIc and IV).
The objective of this randomized trial is to study the effect of stress on performance and the effect of repetition of simulation sessions on performance and stress. This study is a randomized controlled trial including 48 participants who composed 12 multidisciplinary teams (MDTs). Each MDT was made up of 4 persons: an emergency physician, a resident, a nurse, and an ambulance driver who usually compose an emergency team of the French Emergency Medical Service (EMS). 6 MDTs underwent 9 simulation sessions over 1 year (Repetitive SIm Group). 6 MDTs underwent 3 simulation sessions over 1 year (Control Group). Evidence of the existence of stress was assessed in 3 ways: salivary cortisol, Holter parameters, and psychological stress questionnaires. The impact of stress on overall team performance, on technical procedure, and on teamwork, is evaluated by specific validated scales. Detection of post-traumatic stress (PTSD) is performed by self-evaluation on the 7th day and after one month. The perspective is to concomitantly evaluate technical and non-technical performance, and the impact of stress on both. This is the first randomized trial studying repetition of simulation sessions and its impact on both clinical performance and stress as explored by objective and subjective assessments. The investigators expect that stress decreases team performance and that repeated simulation increases team performance. The investigators expect no variation of stress parameters regardless of level of performance.
