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 investigators believe that the pharmacological properties of Envarsus®, well studied in kidney transplantation, may be also suitable after simultaneous kidney and pancreas transplantation than Prograf. Indeed, Envarsus® has demonstrated a clinical efficacy and safety in a complete clinical development plan. This study is to establish the pharmacokinetic profile of tacrolimus prolonged-release (hereafter referred to as 'ENVARSUS®') in diabetics who have undergone kidney and pancreas transplantation, and compare it to the pharmacokinetic profile of standard twice-daily tacrolimus. The study will be conducted in 25 patients hospitalized at Nantes University Hospital.

Ofloxacin is a gold standard antibiotic for the treatment of bone and joint infections due to sensible staphylococcus strains. However, in the elderly, inter-individual variability of the pharmacokinetics may reduce the efficacy or increase toxicity. The occurrence of ofloxacin side effects is likely to be increased in case of higher exposition. However, the serum concentration-toxicity relationship has not yet been determined. The purpose of this project is to assess the association between the residual serum concentration of ofloxacin at day 3 and the occurrence of at least one adverse effect attributable to ofloxacin, and determine a threshold toxicity concentration if this association exists.
The principal aim of this study is to evaluate the cortical developement of perceptual skills and executive functions over time, in children with cochlear implants aged 10-24 months and 3-7 years compared with normally hearing subjects (NHS). To do this, the investigator will use functional Near InfraRed Spectroscopy (fNIRS) during 4 tasks that engage the childs perceptual and cognitive skills over a period of 18 months. The performance scores obtained by each participants as well as the cortical activity will be analysed and decrypted.
Open-label, dose-confirmation and cohort expansion, multicentre, Phase Ib/II study to assess the anti-tumour activity and safety of MEN1611 in combination with cetuximab for the treatment of patients with PIK3CA mutated metastatic colorectal cancer.
Hypercalciuria is one of the most frequent metabolic disorders associated with nephrolithiasis and/or nephrocalcinosis leading to Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and bone complications in adults. Hypercalciuria can be secondary to increased intestinal absorption and/or increased renal distal tubular reabsorption of calcium due to increased active vitamin D, i.e. 1,25(OH)2D, levels. The management of hypercalciuria is challenging. Classic management based on hyperhydration and dietary advice has low impact on calciuria and therefore on CKD progression. Other strategies such as hydrochlorothiazide can be proposed, however with an uncertain medical benefit in view of side effects (hypokalemia, asthenia, potential cutaneous long-term side effects). Azoles are known to inhibit the 1α-hydroxylase and therefore decrease 1,25(OH)2D levels. These antifungal drugs are commonly used in neonates, infants and adults; pharmacokinetic data are well described. Recently, to improve azoles tolerance, fluconazole has been successfully reported to reduce calciuria in patients with CYP24A1 mutation (1 adult) or NPTIIc mutations (1 child), while maintaining a stable renal function. Based on these observations, the investigators hypothesize that fluconazole is effective to decrease and normalize calciuria in patients with hypercalciuria and increased 1,25(OH)2D levels. The primary objective is to demonstrate that fluconazole normalizes or decreases calciuria after 18 weeks of treatment in patients with hypercalciuria and increased 1,25(OH)2D levels. The secondary objectives aim to describe: - the effects of fluconazole on the evolution over time of the calcium/phosphate metabolism, - the evolution of renal function, - the cohort at Baseline and after 4 months of treatment period, - the safety of fluconazole, - the onset of potential mycological resistances, - and the treatment compliance. This is a prospective, interventional, national, randomized in 2 parallel groups (1:1), controlled versus placebo, double blind trial. This study will involve patients between 10 and 60 years of age suffering from nephrolithiasis and/or nephrocalcinosis with hypercalciuria (> 0.1 mmol/kg/d) and increased 1,25 (OH)2D levels (≥ 150 pmol/l) and 25-OH-D levels (≥50 nmol/L). FLUCOLITH study is a unique opportunity to develop a new indication of a well-known and not expensive drug (e.g. fluconazole) in rare renal diseases, the ultimate objective being the secondary prevention of CKD worsening in these patients. If the results of this proof-of-concept randomized controlled trial are positive, the investigators will propose an extension phase to evaluate the long term efficacy and safety of fluconazole on renal and bone parameters.
The sternotomy site is the most painful site after cardiac surgery. Local infiltration of ropivacaine through the multihole catheters in the bilaterosternal position (BLS) after sternotomy significantly reduces pain at rest and during mobilization, reduces opioids consumption, decreases postoperative complications, improves patient comfort and satisfaction and reduced hospital costs. In this study our hypothesis is to test the efficacity of local anesthetic administration via the catheters in the BLS position placed before the surgical incision.
Implementation of a next-generation sequencing panel of genes to identify deleterious variants in patients with incomplete forms of albinism.
This is a Phase II, international, open-label, two-arm, non-randomised study of AZD4635 in participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
Aim of the study : To evaluate postoperative outcomes of elective left-sided colectomy in a renal transplanted population. Methods : From 2010 to 2015, all consecutive patients who underwent left elective colectomy in a referral center were prospectively collected. Considering our exclusion criterial, data from 120 patients were analyzed. The cohort was separated into 2 groups : renal transplanted patients (KTR-group) and non-renal transplanted patients (C-group) Short and longterm outcomes were compared between the two groups. Primary outcome : 90 days postoperative anastomotic leak rate
