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 CELESTE cohort will be a three-center prospective cohort associated with the creation of a biobank including Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) patients with active disease
In France in 2021, 11.6% of deliveries were complicated by a postpartum haemorrhage (PPH), including 3.0% by severe PPH (the bleeding volume exceeds 1000 ml). Severe PPH is the 5th cause of maternal death (8.4% or 1.2 deaths per 100,000 live births). These deaths were considered preventable in 90% of cases. A plasma fibrinogen concentration below 2 g/L is considered as a critical threshold which constitutes a marker of severity of PPH and is significantly associated with the occurrence of severe PPH. Measuring the concentration of fibrinogen using a rapid test, simple to perform and interpret, available in the delivery room could optimize the management of severe PPH. The qLabs®FIB analyzer distributed by the Stago Biocare laboratory for the rapid determination of the fibrinogen concentration at the patient's bedside could meet this objective.
Papillomaviruses are responsible for almost all cervical cancers. In France, there are more than 3000 new cases of cervical cancer each year and nearly 1000 deaths. One of the ways to prevent this cancer is screening by PCR on cervical sample for which national coverage rate remains very insufficient (<60%). The invasive and uncomfortable nature of cervical sampling has been identified as a major obstacle to screening. In this context, an alternative sample, such as the first-void urine, seems to be judicious. Nevertheless, some studies have shown a lack of sensitivity of the HPV PCR test on urine. As underlined by the French National Authority for Health (HAS), this is mainly due to a lack of standardization of urine collection. In this study, the investigators therefore propose to evaluate the performance of the HPV PCR test on first-void urine using a standardized protocol. Through a questionnaire, they will also evaluate the acceptability of the first void urine collection device.
Influenza is still responsible for more than 650,000 deaths per year worldwide and no major improvements in patients' care has been made despite 50 years of research. Especially, there is no therapeutic strategy targeting the dysregulated host response. CXCR4-expressing neutrophils seem to be involved in the rupture of host resistance. The aim of this study is thus to compare the percentage of blood CXCR4-expressing neutrophils between influenza survivors and non-survivors.
Early remediation of the communicative and social difficulties of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is central. However, from the age of 6-8 months, children with ASD show a lack of attention to social stimuli such as faces: such early avoidance behavior could be at the root of later communicative difficulties (language, attention). The Denver program aims to stimulate social communication and attention to faces in children with ASD aged between 18 and 60 months. Although the Denver protocol is currently recommended by the French National Authority for Health (HAS), the Denver protocol has not yet been widely used or evaluated in France, mainly due to a lack of tools adapted to non-verbal populations. The goal of FaceCom is to help clinicians to evaluate the efficiency of the Denver Protocol.
Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) is a chronic disabling disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), prolonged nighttime sleep and sleep inertia. IH is a rare disorder, estimated around 0.05%, yet its true prevalence remains unknown. Disease onset occurs most often during young adulthood and is accompanied by severe social, professional and economic impairments, resulting in risk of accident and a loss in patient's quality of life. There are no ANSM (or FDA-) approved treatments for IH symptoms. IH shares common features with delayed sleep-wake phase disorder (DSWPD) which is a chronic circadian rhythm disorder which occurs as in IH during young adulthood. The combination of evening melatonin and morning bright light therapy is the most effective validated chronotherapy in DSWPD.Moreover, bright light therapy has direct effects and is known to increase daytime alertness and to improve mood. Melatonin is empirically used in routine clinical practice in patients with IH and French and European recommendations mention melatonin as a possible treatment of sleep inertia in IH. . Our goal is to bring a proof of concept of a safe therapeutic practice for IH combining exogenous melatonin and bright light therapy in
The overall aim of this study is to determine whether the Immunoscore associated with histopathological features of endoscopically resected stage T1 colorectal tumors is predictive of locoregional lymph node invasion, in order to better select patients eligible for an organ preservation strategy.
Although lenalidomide (LEN) have proved effective in treating many cancers, few patients receiving LEN may experience rare but life-threatening adverse events such as Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL). Today, data about ALL are scarce. The objective was to investigate reports of ALL adverse events related to LEN in patients with cancer using the World Health Organization (WHO) pharmacovigilance database.
Alternating hemiplegia of childhood (AHC) is a rare early-onset neurodevelopmental encephalopathy frequently caused by mutations in the ATP1A3 gene. It is typically characterized by a variable degree of intellectual disability, motor dysfunction and various paroxysmal events (dystonic and plegic attacks). Dystonic and plegic attacks are very disabling and current treatments are disappointing with limited efficacy and poor tolerability. The investigators recently reported the efficacy of high-flow oxygen administration (100% O2 at a flow rate of 12 L/min) as an acute treatment for the dystonic attacks in a 25-year-old patient suffering from AHC. The aim of the study is to assess the effect of high-flow oxygen administration (against placebo) as an acute treatment of dystonic and plegic attacks. The primary outcome will be the proportion of motor attacks stopped 30 minutes after the beginning of motor symptoms over 5 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to compare two methods of cochlear implantation : conventional manual insertion versus robot-assisted in order to verify whether robotic insertion provides better performance in the noisy environment. To do this, we will compare the two methods of insertion of the electrode holder, on 140 patients candidates for cochlear implantation randomized in two groups (70 conventional surgery versus 70 robot-assisted surgery). All patients will be recruited during 17 months, in our Ear, nose and throat (ENT) Department of the Pitié-Salpêtrière hospital group, the first center for adult patients established in France (on average 180 patients/year). Patient will be followed for 9 months with clinical evaluation, imaging, audiometric, listening effort and quality of life assessments. These evaluations will be carried out preoperatively and postoperatively at 3 months and 6 months post-activation of the cochlear implant.
