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 study is designed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of GSK1070806 in participants with moderate-to severe atopic dermatitis, who have completed phase 2b parent GSK atopic dermatitis (AtD) study (NCT05999799).
In Dermatology, assessment of people of color remains underrepresented in RCTs (<10%) and guidelines. Acne affects around 9% of the population worldwide and negatively affects quality of life and self-esteem with anxiety, suicidal ideation and physical scarring. Main lesions associate comedons, inflammatory papules and pustules which grading of severity allows decision-making, e.g., topicals in mild acne and isotretinoin in severe acne. In darker skin type patients, i.e., Fitzpatrick phototypes IV-VI, acne-related pigmentation (ARP) occurs in 65% of cases which reflects either per- or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Whatever is the mechanism, ARP (number, size, importance of dyschromia) impacts the quality of life in such patients. In moderate acne, treatment is based on oral antibiotics for 3 months, i.e., doxycycline or lymecycline, with topical treatment like tretinoin targeting comedons (and potentially ARP). However, oral antibiotics first-line were developed in white skin patients only and never showed its efficacy in ARP. Moreover, doxycycline could be associated with new-onset hyperpigmentation in acne patients. Isotretinoin -acting on the sebaceous gland and therefore the most effective drug in acne- is only prescribed after failure of antibiotics according to the guidelines.The main objective: To assess the superiority at M6 of a treatment of moderate facial acne in skin of color patients with oral isotretinoin in first line compared to the current standard of care on the severity of ARP.Multicenter randomized controlled trial - open study. The number of subjects required for the trial = 420
The emergence of new problematic alcohol consumption practices among young people requires new dynamics in prevention strategies. In this context, the ADUC project (Alcohol and Drugs at the University of Caen) aims to develop a better understanding of alcohol consumption, and in particular the practice of binge drinking (BD), in order to develop relevant and adapted prevention tools. The ALCONIM study (IRESP funding; Agreement 20II31-00 - ADUC part 3) is a randomized controlled trial that focuses on the specific determinants of norms, identities and motivations. The main objective of this experiment in social psychology is to validate a program for the prevention of BD practices based on motivational interviewing (MI) associated with induced hypocrisy (IH), social identity mapping (SIM) and motivational modeling (MM) in a student environment.
Central post-stroke pain (CPP) is extremely difficult to relieve and responds very poorly to analgesics targeting neuropathic pain, probably because the mechanisms underlying this pain remain poorly understood. Stroke pain is traditionally considered to be of central origin and related to changes in the spinal cord and/or brain nociceptive systems. However, a recent study in a small cohort of patients has suggested that the peripheral nervous system (PNS) may have a role in the initiation and persistence of APD. The main objective of this prospective randomised controlled bicentric study (Raymond Poincaré and Ambroise Paré) in double blind and parallel groups against placebo (3 arms) will be to evaluate the efficacy of two peripheral nerve blocks performed 14 days apart on spontaneous neuropathic pain after stroke. The active treatments used for the blocks will be either lidocaine 20 mg/ml or levobupivacaine 1.25 mg/ml or placebo (saline)
The study purpose is to demonstrate safety and performance of bilateral implantation of LuxHighAdd intraocular lens compared with the LuxGood Monofocal lens.
The October 2022 Transparency Commission considers that VYEPTI (eptinezumab) is a treatment option for patients suffering from severe migraine with at least 8 migraine days per month, who have failed at least two prophylactic treatments and have no cardiovascular impairment. Since the beginning of 2023, eptinezumab has been available in France as an inpatient treatment prescribed by a migraine neurologist in a growing number of centres. The Saint-Denis Hospital and the Nîmes University Hospital are among the first centres to have started. The investigators from these 2 centres have therefore decided to pool their data to provide the first French feedback on its effectiveness.
We hypothesise that a short-term intervention by dispensing pharmacists is feasible and relatively easy to implement, and that it could have an impact on the deprescribing of BZD/Z in adult patients. Two primary objectives will be evaluated in a sequential hierarchical manner, with two primary endpoints analysed one after the other, without alpha risk adjustment, but the second can only be analysed if the null hypothesis is rejected for the first: 1. Evaluate the impact of brief motivational intervention (BMI) on reducing the daily dose of BZD/Z prescribed at 6 months (superiority hypothesis) compared with the usual practice of dispensing BZD/Z in pharmacies. 2. Evaluate the impact of BMI on clinical worsening at 6 months (non-inferiority hypothesis) in comparison with the usual practice of dispensing BZD/Z in pharmacies.
The long biceps tendon (LBT) has a particular anatomical pathway, making it fragile due to repeated microtrauma or trauma which can lead to chronic lesions of LBT. Current issue with this pathology is the absence of preoperative effective clinical and paraclinical tools, allowing confirmed diagnosis, in particular because of its entanglement with other pathologies. This diagnostic uncertainty generates an approximation for LBT therapeutic indications so that therapeutic indications are frequently finalized during glenohumeral arthroscopy. Having a reliable and reproducible diagnostic tool for LBT pathologies would allow an improvement in their surgical load management . In this context, this research is based on the hypothesis that the construction of a pre-operative score, the HASS score, combining pre-operative clinical and paraclinical data would allow to obtain a reliable diagnosis of LBT injuries.
Research Involving Human Persons (RIHP 3) focusing on the treatment of type 0-0-1 bifurcation lesions in routine practice. Multicenter Study. To retrieve and analyze the details of different angioplasty techniques used in this type of bifurcation lesion (Medina 0-0-1) in order to describe current practice and search for predictors of clinical events.
Vitiligo is an autoimmune depigmentation disorder affecting 0.5 to 1% of the population worldwide. Vitiligo lesions are characterized by a progressive loss of pigmentation caused by the disappearance of functioning melanocytes in the epidermis, mainly resulting from the activation of immune cells in a genetically predisposed patient. Despite major advances in the understanding of the mechanisms of the disease, the treatment remains challenging. Different treatment strategies could lead to cosmetically acceptable repigmentation (>75%), particularly on face and neck. However, after repigmentation, the risk of relapse is estimated at nearly 40% during the first year after stopping treatment. To date, long-term management remains a challenge. With their topical product RV5098A adapted for patients with vitiligo, Pierre Fabre Laboratories hypothesize that it could be effective in maintaining pigmentation of previously repigmented lesions in adults with facial vitiligo.
