There are about 93 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Monaco. 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.
-Interventional trials aim at preventing severe RIF occurrence in BC patients selected by individual radiosensitivity: PRAVAPREV-01 will be the first interventional double blind trial that will offer a personalised strategy to breast cancer patients who will be treated with adjuvant RT after breast conserving surgery: - By assessing individual risk of severe RIF development - By offering a statin targeted therapy to the high-risk patients identified.
A new human coronavirus responsible for pneumonia, SARS-CoV-2, emerged in China in December 2019 and has spread rapidly. COVID-19, the disease caused by this virus, has a very polymorphous clinical presentation, which ranges from upper respiratory tract infections to acute respiratory distress syndrome. It may appear serious straightaway or may evolve in two stages, with a worsening 7 to 10 days after the first clinical signs, potentially linked to a cytokine storm and accompanied by a high risk of thrombosis. The global mortality rate of COVID-19 is between 3% and 4%, with severe forms being more frequent among older patients. Management is symptomatic as no antiviral treatment has demonstrated any clinical benefit in this condition. Hydroxychloroquine is a derivative of chloroquine commonly used in some autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus. It is active in vitro in cellular models of infection by many viruses such as HIV, hepatitis C or SARS-CoV. However, its interest in viral infections in humans has not been demonstrated. Very recently, a preliminary uncontrolled study evaluated the effect of hydroxychloroquine on viral shedding in subjects with COVID-19. Among 20 patients treated with hydroxychloroquine at a dose of 600 mg per day, the percentage of patients with detectable SARS-CoV-2 RNA in the nasopharynx decreased from 100% at inclusion (start of treatment) to 43% six days later. In comparison, 15 of 16 untreated patients had a positive RT-PCR six days after inclusion. Furthermore, hydroxychloroquine has immunomodulating and anti-inflammatory properties, which could theoretically prevent or limit secondary worsening. The research hypothesis is that treatment with hydroxychloroquine improves prognosis and reduces the risk of death or use for invasive ventilation in patients with COVID-19.
This is a multicentre, prospective, observational post-market registry (follow-up 1 month, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years and 5 years) to monitor the post-market clinical safety and effectiveness of the Vascutek AnacondaTM Custom Fenestrated Stent Graft in patients with a short infrarenal neck of <15mm or juxta-renal abdominal aortic aneurysms who, in the opinion of the treating physician, are anatomically suitable for the AnacondaTM Custom Fenestrated Stent Graft and for whom a customised medical device is required.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether a single injection hyaluronic acid (HA) product is not inferior to a 3 injection HA product at 24 weeks (6 months), in terms of effectiveness in reducing pain when walking in patients suffering from symptomatic tibiofemoral osteoarthritis of the knee.
