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 purpose of this study is to asses the prognosis of STEMI patients without standard modifiable risk factors of cardiovascular disease (diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, hypertension and cigarette smoking) compare to patients presenting at least one of these risk factors.
There are currently only few data on the coronary artery calcium score in patient with diabetes in France, and the diagnostic and therapeutic attitudes towards a high coronary artery calcium score are not standardized and depend on clinical practices, which may vary from one center to another. The proposed multicenter prospective study would provide a better understanding of the epidemiological particularities of the coronary artery calcium score in French diabetics, refine the indications for better performance of the examination, and compare attitudes when this score is high.
The goal of this study is to identify important biological pathways involved in a variety of ichtyosis, using transcriptomic and proteomic techniques, with the aim of guiding the development of new therapeutis.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of balovaptan compared with placebo in participants with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) at risk of developing malignant cerebral edema (MCE)
Aortic valve stenosis is the most common valve disease leading to surgical or percutaneous intervention in Europe and North America. Percutaneous aortic valve replacement (TAVI) is currently recommended for the management of patients with symptomatic aortic stenosis and with high; very high operative risk of aortic valve replacement surgery or intermediate operative risk of aortic valve replacement surgery after a benefit-risk assessment by a heart team and operative contraindication to conventional aortic valve replacement surgery. These indications are supported by the 2017 European Cardiology guidelines. This technique of percutaneous arterial valve implantation is most often performed via the femoral route, under local anesthesia, with placement of a prosthetic biological valve in the aortic position, impacting it into the patient's native aortic valve. TAVI has been shown to be superior to medical treatment in patients with a aortic valve stenosis at very high operative risk of conventional aortic valve replacement surgery. However, the occurrence of atrioventricular conduction disorders (de novo left bundle branch block (LBBB) or complete AVB) remains the most frequent complication after TAVI. Therefore, the rate of pacemaker (PM) implantation after TAVI remains high, ranging from 2% to 51%, with an average rate of 13%. Pacemaker implantation has several deleterious effects (increased hospitalization time, desynchronization of the left ventricle by permanent right ventricular pacing, exposure of the patient to procedural complications of pacemaker placement, and possible increase in the final cost to society of the initial hospitalization. Not all patients who received a pacemaker post TAVI implantation use their PM. The rate of Pacemaker dependency and therefore of patients who actually use their pacemaker is approximately 33-36% at 1 year after percutaneous valve implantation. In view of all the potentially deleterious consequences of post TAVI pacemaker implantation, it is therefore necessary to know which patients really justify pacemaker implantation after percutaneous valve implantation. The purpose of this study is to investigate diagnostic imaging criteria that may be predictive of the occurrence of intramyocardial conduction disorders post TAVI implantation. Although some patients present only transient conductive disturbances, the impact of tissue inflammation of the intramyocardial conduction pathways after TAVI remains to be understood.
There is currently no way to predict the progression of chronic kidney disease in patients with metabolic disease(s). Furthermore, the mechanisms responsible for the development and/or progression of complications remain largely unknown. In order to identify the predictive factors and/or mechanisms involved in the different complications of these diseases, we propose an approach coupling : - a classical phenotypic characterization (clinical, biological, imaging) of the patients - high-throughput screening of the genome, transcriptome, metabolome, proteome, and immunophenotyping. According to our hypothesis, this approach should allow : - Early detection of complications - Classification of patients in homogeneous groups of patients with identical evolution - Identification of the molecular mechanisms involved.
The thromboembolic risk is increased during the nephrotic syndrome (NS) with an incidence of deep vein thrombosis 15%, pulmonary embolism of 10-30% and renal vein thrombosis of 25-37%. There is a hemostatic imbalance with urinary leakage of anticoagulant factors and increased hepatic synthesis of procoagulant factors, platelet hyperaggregability and a decrease in fibrinolytic activity. However, the identification of patients requiring anticoagulant prophylaxis remains imprecise.The thromboembolic risk is higher when the NS is related to extramembranous glomerulonephritis comparatively to others glomerulopathies. The reason of this difference is not still known. This risk increase with SN's severity and therefore with the decrease of albuminemia. Moreover, few studies have evaluated anticoagulant treatment efficacy during a NS, which clinical benefit depends also on hemorrhagic risk specific of each patient. Thus, the determination of the thrombotic risk and the modalities of anticoagulation are variable and perfectible during the NS. We propose to use the thrombin generation test (TGT) to quantify the thromboembolic risk in patients with a NS and to follow its evolution during prophylactic anticoagulation and after remission of NS.
Diffuse large B cell lymphoma is the most common malignant lymphoid hemopathy. More than half of the patients will be cured with an RCHOP-type immunochemotherapy protocol (Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, Prednisone). Monitoring of adverse effects, risk of relapse and quality of life are essential in overall management. Patients are the best candidates to report them. Managing these events should improve quality of life and reduce costs. The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of monitoring these events by a web application (Oncolaxy©) and to compare it with a control population in the context of a randomized pilot study including 80 patients per arm with diffuse large cell B lymphoma in first-line treatment with R-CHOP.
Postoperative ileus (POI) is a serious complication after surgery. While it complicates all type of surgery, it is more frequent after abdominal surgery (especially bowel or colorectal surgery). Many studies aim to reduce the occurence of POI without efficiency. The aim of this study is to assess the efficiency of the vagal stimulation, by the mean of chewing, to reduce the duration of POI.
Parents occupy a central place in the emergency care of suicidal adolescents and young adults. However, from 15 to 25yo, three different administrative situations exist in France: - <16yo: admission to a child ED by a team trained to receive the youngest patients. - 16-18yo: admission to an adult ED by team devoted to adult care, no exit without parents' authorization. - >18yo: admission to an adult ED by team. Laying on qualitative observational protocol and a Delphi approach, this study will explore the perspective of adolescents and young adults following a suicidal attempt, the perspective of their parents, and the perspective of their healthcare professionals to build guidelines for parental involvement in care of suicidal youths.
