There are about 103 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Martinique. 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.
Postural changes are commonly used as therapeutic maneuver to enhance or reduce cerebral perfusion. For instance, in acute stroke, the patient can be positioned in head down tilt position so as to increase perfusion of cerebral tissues perfusion. In During stroke and in hypertensive patients and during stroke, varying degrees a various loss of cerebral autoregulation is loss are usually observed. The aim of this study is to assess cerebral perfusion with ASL perfusion in human subjects in different conditions: healthy, hypertensive and stroke.
The need for a tool to measure flare in lower limb osteoarthritis (OA of the hip and knee) is justified by the opportunities for development of clinical trials targeting hip and knee OA long-term treatment (slow acting drug, disease modifying drug) and short-term treatment of symptoms. Such treatments are currently under development and will likely bring important changes in the treatment of patients. The development of a Flare-OA tool would be essential to capture the occurrence of flare, and to implement and adapt treatment strategies. This project was elaborated with the aims to: 1. define the construct through development of a conceptual framework 2. use the conceptual framework to inform the development of a patient-reported outcome measure, Flare-OA tool, for people with OA 3. evaluate the psychometric properties of the new measure using the OMERACT (Outcome Measures in Rheumatology) filter 2.0 and Rasch measurement methods.
The purpose of this study is: (1) to examine the effectiveness of reconsolidation blockade as a treatment for trauma-related disorders, (2) to evaluate the feasibility of implementing this new treatment on a large scale in a short delay. This clinical trial as been set up in response to the Paris attacks to increase treatment capacity of the AP-HP (Assistance Publique des Hopitaux de Paris) hospital network.. Reconsolidation blockade will be compared to treatment as usual (TAU), on symptoms reduction after 6 weeks of treatment. In order to measure effectiveness and cost-utility, socioeconomic measures, quality of life and social functioning outcomes will be measured pre- and post-treatment as well as 3 and 12 months after study enrollment.
This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a 2-injection vaccine Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) virus-like particle vaccine (CHIKV VLP) in healthy adults.
In the context of the Risk Management Plan (RMP), as requested from Addmedica by the EMEA, to collect information about long-term safety of Siklos® (hydroxycarbamide) when used in patients with Sickle Cell Disease.
The hypothesis of the study is that Bone Marrow Tryptase (MT) level is a diagnostic marker of Systemic Mastocytosis (SM). Determination of the bone marrow tryptase in Bone Marrow Aspirate (BMA) could be a new diagnostic criteria for systemic mastocytosis with sensitivity close to 100% and a low false negative rate. This new test could be useful to improve the ability to diagnose accurately systemic mastocytosis (in particular the indolent forms). Because of its limited invasiveness compared to bone marrow biopsy, it could also be considered as a test performed before bone marrow biopsy. Only patients with high bone marrow tryptase would then undergo bone marrow biopsy. In the future and if validated by this study, bone marrow tryptase could be a useful marker of mast cell load and help to monitor the efficacy of treatment in systemic mastocytosis.
Open study to make a comparison between hypogonadism and euogonadism patients regarding the severity of prostate cancer. The purpose of this study is to determine the importance of the relationship between the hormonal status and the type of the tumor at the time of surgical intervention as well as follow up of the patients.
The purpose of the study is to assess the benefits of a therapeutic strategy that associates an early administration of human fibrinogen concentrate in the management of PPH on the reduction of bleeding after the initiation of prostaglandins intravenous infusion, following vaginal delivery.
Targeted population: Patients with heart failure causing hospitalization during the last twelve months. Hypothesis: The number of all cause deaths and hospitalizations will be smaller for the Telecardiology group than for the reference group (standard follow-up care). An 18 months period of observation is required. Main goal: To compare the rate of all cause deaths and hospitalizations of patients with heart failure between the Telecardiology group and the reference group after 18 months of monitoring.
Patients are recruited at diagnosis or at relapse of ATLL-HR in French Caribbean islands and Guyana. They all receive Zidovudine and Pegylated Interferon (ZPI). For patients younger than 65 years old, an allogeneic donor is searching out. Patients included at relapse and with lymphoma clinico-biological subtype also receive chemotherapy (CT). Responses are assessed during ZPI+/-CT and eligible patients (depending on age, comorbidities and response criteria) receive allogeneic transplant. Patient follow-up is planned for 3 years old
