Saint Quentin, France Clinical Trials

This project is part of a joint ALFA and GOELAM strategy aiming to improve the survival of patients with newly diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) aged 18-70 years. The basis of this strategy is to evaluate intensified conventional chemotherapy and targeted drugs in selected disease-risk subgroups of adult patients with ...

This study aims to evaluate whether the addition of lenalidomide to rituximab-maintenance improves progression free survival (PFS) compared to standard rituximab maintenance after induction treatment consisting of R-CHOP + R-HAD versus R-CHOP alone in older patients ( 60 year old) with mantle cell lymphoma. 643 patients will be randomized in ...

Numerous studies pointed out the close relationship between sleep apnea and cognitive impairment. To the investigators' knowledge, no trials have assessed the existence of a relationship between the IAH index and the cerebral arterial blood flow rate (macrocirculation). Developments in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provide new insights into the quantitative ...

French national multicentric phase III trial evaluating chemotherapy with Folfirinox or gemcitabine in locally advanced pancreatic carcinoma

At the same time as these results, triple therapies involving 5FU + oxiplatin + irinotecan have objectively shown a significant increase in overall survival of patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma compared to gemcitabine alone (median of 11.1 months versus 6.8 months, HR = 0.57 [0.45 - 0.73] p < 0.0001). ...

Colorectal cancer occurs mainly in elderly patients. Recent estimation showed that in France more than 50% of the patients diagnosed with a colorectal cancer are 70 years old or more. Adjuvant chemotherapy has demonstrated a benefit on disease-free survival and overall survival after a stage III colon cancer resection. Nevertheless ...

The preventive role of vitamin C on the development of CRPS type 1 was already demonstrated in traumatology and foot surgery. The management of CRPS type 1 is long and expensive. A preventive care seems beneficial. Some studies already performed suggest a similar role in scheduled surgery of the upper ...

RI is associated with poor prognosis and short median survival (32 months vs 55 months for MM patients with normal renal function). Thus, RI remains a major challenge for hematologists, including decisions on optimal anti-myeloma therapy, potential dialysis, supportive care and quality of life. The combination of a proteasome inhibitor ...

With the recent addition of carfilzomib as a treatment option for multiple myeloma, no data is available yet on how the drug is being used outside of the clinical trial setting. The Primary Objective is to describe carfilzomib utilisation in routine clinical practice, including dosage, administration schedule, regimen, duration of ...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of benralizumab on the rate of asthma exacerbations, patient reported quality of life and lung function during the 24-week treatment in patients with uncontrolled, severe asthma with an eosinophilic phenotype. A subset of patients will be assessed for their ongoing ...
