title: Recombinant Human Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) Treatment of Children With Growth Failure Associated With Primary IGF-1 Deficiency: An Open-Label, Multi-Center, Extension Study

summary: This is an extension study to Tercica study MS301 (NCT00125164) and is intended to collect long term safety and efficacy data on the continued use of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor-1 (rh IGF-1) in children and adolescents treated for primary IGF-1 deficiency (IGFD). The secondary objective is to use the data collected to learn more about the relationship of IGF-1 exposure to the promotion of normal growth and pubertal development.


title: Randomised Prospective Comparison of the nonmyélo-Ablative Allograft and the Traditional Allograft in Acute Myeloid Leukaemia in Complete Remission of the Adult

summary: The allograft of marrow in its technique of reference (myélo-ablative (MA) condition by cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation (TBI) with strong amounts) therapeutic is recognized acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) of the adult for the patients of less than 55 years, because it offers chances of cure higher than chemotherapy or the auto-graft. However, mortality related to the traditional graft is approximately 30% to 1 year. The recent use of the non-myélo-ablative graft (NMA), in which the anti-leukaemia effect rests exclusively on the allogenic effect "graft-versus-leukaemia" makes it possible to obtain among patients of more than 55 years in complete reemission (CR), survivals without relapses comparable with the traditional allograft among patients of more than 35 years. The major interest of NMA graft is to reduce early mortality related to the graft. This reduction should be all the more significant as the patient is younger, and thus bring to a better survival. There is not, at the present hour, of prospective comparative study of the two procedures of graft. Taking into account the results observed after NMA graft among patients of more than 55 years, and taking into account the toxicity of the standard graft between 35 and 55 years, it is essential to now compare the 2 approaches among patients who do not have a counter-indication for one or the other, in the age bracket where the toxicity of the traditional graft is highest.

title: Consequences of Parenteral Nutrition Photoprotection on the Oxidant Related Diseases Among Extremely Low Birth Weight Infants : A Randomized Controlled Study

summary: The antioxidant system of very low birth weight infants is immature. This immaturity is implicated in the pathogenesis of diseases such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia or retinopathy. The main source of oxidant is oxygen, and parenteral nutrition is contaminated with oxidant. Photoprotection decreases the oxidant load infused with parenteral nutrition. In a preliminary study, photoprotection reduced the frequency of pulmonary bronchodysplasia, increased the quantity of enteral nutrition tolerated, and decreased the arterial blood pressure among very low birth weight infants. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of photoprotection on oxidant related diseases among very low birth weight infants. This study is a randomized multicenter trial. In the intervention group, photoprotection is applied until the infusion of parenteral nutrition with amber bags, tubing, and syringes. The quality of photoprotection is controlled by measuring malondialdehyde and cysteine after 24 hours of infusion. The control group will receive parenteral nutrition with transparent bags and tubing. The outcomes are evaluated at 36 weeks, and 680 infants will be enrolled, with stratification among centers and gestational age.

title: Endoscopic Follow-up of Low Grade Precancerous Bronchial Lesions in High Risk Patients (SELEPREBB1)

summary:
The goal of this multicentric French randomized trial is to determine the best auto fluorescence bronchial endoscopic follow-up strategy in high risk patients bearing low grade bronchial precancerous lesions. Subjects will be randomly assigned to one of the following arm :

(A) every 6 months clinical and chest Xrays follow-up without intermediate endoscopy, (B) every 6 months clinical and chest Xrays follow-up including repeated autofluorescence endoscopy and biopsies on a 6 months basis in case of low grade dysplasia or on a one year basis in patients without dysplasia.

After 36 months follow-up, each patient from the two groups will be subjected to a final autofluorescence endoscopy and biopsy and a Spiral Chest Xray.

The final analysis will compare between the two groups :

The probability of progression from an initially identified low grade lesion to a high grade lesion
The probability of respiratory epithelial tract progression assessed by the occurrence of a lung cancer or high grade lesion.
The characteristics of lung cancers detected in each arm
In both arm, the influence of risk factors and persistent exposure to tobacco on lesion evolutivity.

title: Gene Expression Profiling in PBMCs as a Tool for Prediction of Infliximab Responsiveness in Rheumatoid Arthritis

summary:
The objective of the study is to identify and validate predictive markers of infliximab responsiveness in RA patients by 2 approaches: i) measuring biochemical, immunological and bone markers in sera because of their involvement in pathogenic mechanisms; ii) identifying gene-expression signatures in PBMCs by the transcriptomic analysis.

Patients with active RA (ACR criteria) were given i.v. 3 mg/kg infliximab associated with metotrexate at weeks 0, 2, 6, and every 8th week. Infliximab efficacy was evaluated at week 14, using the EULAR response criteria.

Just before the starting of infliximab treatment, the following parameters were measured in the sera: i) immunological tests: rheumatoid factor (IgA, IgG, IgM), anti-CCP, autoAb recognizing the 27 C-terminal fragment (ACAST-C27) and domain I (ACAST-DI) of calpastatin, anti-G6PI, anti a-enolase, anti-keratin and anti-perinuclear factor; ii) biochemical markers: CRP, MMP-1, MMP-3, TIMP-1, TIMP-2; markers of bone resorption: pyridinolin, deoxypyridinolin, osteoprotegerin, sRANKL, COMP. The predictive value of each parameter for a response/non-response to infliximab was analysed using Fischer's exact, Mann-Whitney and Chi2 tests.
A blood sample was collected just before the onset of infliximab treatment and total RNAs were extracted from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The [33P] radiolabeled mRNAs were hybridized (duplicate or triplicate) over a set of 10.000 human cDNA probes spotted at a high density on nylon membranes. Data were normalized and filtered to allow the comparison between RNA samples. Statistical analyses were performed with the R software and hierarchical clustering was performed with the Cluster and Tree View softwares.

title: Effects of Perioperative Systemic Ketamine on Development of Long-term Neuropathic Pain After Thoracotomy.

summary: Lung surgery under thoracotomy is known to induce long-term pain which can be considered as neuropathic in many patients concerned [1,2]. The suspected origin of neuropathy is a direct traumatism of intercostal nerve(s) [3]. Among the possible preventive treatments that can be administered during the initial aggression, ketamine [4,5] appears as the easiest to use, as it is already commonly administered intra and postoperatively for improvement of analgesia [6].

title: Genesis of Scleroderma: Role of Environmental Factors in 100 Patients With Scleroderma and 300 Healthy Controls

summary:
Scleroderma is an autoimmune disease of unknown origin. Recently, the role of environmental factors, and particularly toxic drug exposure, in the genesis of scleroderma has been suggested.

This prompted us to conduct this prospective, case-control, multicentric study, including 2 groups of subjects:

100 patients with scleroderma
300 sex- and age-matched healthy controls. The aim of our study is to determine whether exposure to toxics is higher in patients with scleroderma compared with healthy controls.

title: Local Anesthesia Effect on Tuberculin Skin Test Results in Infants and Children

summary: The use of local anaesthesia efficiently reduces pain due to needle puncture. However, when tuberculin skin test is performed it is the skin reaction to tuberculin injection that is studied. It is a quantitative skin reaction measured in millimiters. From the study of literature it is not known whether local anaesthetic modify skin reaction to tuberculin. Therefore, before recommending the use local anaesthesia for tuberculin intradermal injection we have to rule out a potential effect of local anaesthetic on the result of the test. This is particularly important in children, since there are more sensitive to pain than adults


title: Small Bowel Motor Impairment in Scleroderma: Results of a Prospective 5-year Manometric Follow-up

summary:
Small bowel involvement is still recognized to be associated with great morbidity and mortality in SSc patients, leading particularly to malabsorption and intestinal pseudo-obstruction. Intestinal disorders directly related to SSc have, in fact, been reported to be one of the most common causes of death.

In a previous prospective study, we have demonstrated the high prevalence of small intestinal involvement in SSc patients, using upper intestinal manometry; in turn, 88% of our SSc patients had upper intestinal motor disturbances. However, to date, no authors have yet analyzed the course of upper intestinal motor dysfunction in SSc.

The aims of this study were therefore to assess the 5-year course of small bowel motor disorders, using manometry in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc), and to investigate for an association between upper intestinal motor dysfunction outcome and other clinical manifestations of SSc.

title: Catheter Ablation as the First Line Therapy for Symptomatic Typical Atrial Flutter: A Multicenter Randomized Study of Cost/Effectiveness

summary: Catheter ablation of typical atrial flutter is a well established technique with a high acute success rate and very low complication and recurrence rates. It has also been shown that ablation of recurrent symptomatic typical atrial flutter led to a clear improvement in quality of life. We sought to evaluate the cost/effectiveness of catheter ablation as the first line therapy in patient suffering from their first symptomatic typical atrial flutter episode. This study is a multicenter trial in which patients with a first symptomatic episode of typical atrial flutter are randomized to undergo ablation or to receive antiarrhythmic drugs after electrical cardioversion. Clinical examination, quality of life questionnaires,12 leads ECG and 24-hour Holter monitoring are performed at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months following randomization.The primary end-point is the absence of recurrence of typical atrial flutter at - and 12 months of follow up. The secondary end points are the cost and the cost/effectiveness ratio of these two approaches.


summary:
Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is now a major therapeutic option to manage patients with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure (AHRF). Otherwise, patient-ventilator interfaces are determinant to get an optimal NIV efficacy in parallel with ventilatory comfort.

Facial masks during NIV are associated with deleterious consequences like gas leaks around the mask, skin breakdown (especially on the nasal bridge), claustrophobia and mask discomfort. In order to limit these side effects, a cephalic interface has been recently designed. Cephalic mask covers the whole anterior surface of the face and excessive mask fit pressure is therefore spread over a larger surface outside the nose area. However, this mask has a high volume that may interfere with NIV efficacy and may also induce claustrophobic sensations.

The aim of this study is to compare the clinical efficacy and tolerance of a cephalic mask versus a conventional oronasal mask during AHRF.

title: Effects of Intraoperative Nitrous Oxide on Postoperative Pain for Patients With Current Opioid Treatment After Vertebroplasty.

acronym: PROTOX

summary: Peroperative opioids are known to induce N-Methyl-D-Aspartate dependent enhancement of postoperative hyperalgesia. For patients with current opioid treatment, these phenomena could be exagerated and could produce greater postoperative opioid consumption and higher pain score. Since Nitrous oxide has anti- N-Methyl-D-Aspartate properties, the aim of this study was to evaluate, in patients with current opioid treatment, the effects of peroperative Nitous oxide on postoperative opioid consumption and pain score, after vertebroplasty.

title: Relationship Between Succinate Dehydrogenase Mutations and High-Altitude Illness Associated With Chemoreflex Failure

summary: This study is is the first step of a full study named CHEMOGENE because it explores the genetic determinant of an alteration of the chemoreflex. This reflex determines hyperventilation when the pressure of oxygen falls in the blood. This happens when subjects travel to high-altitude where oxygen levels diminish in the atmosphere. Subjects with such an altered chemoreflex are intolerant to altitude and develop pulmonary or cerebral edema associated with a severe headache. In this study we compare subjects tolerant to high altitude (8000 meters)to subjects intolerant to altitude. The chemoreflex is measured i.e. the hyperventilation associated with hypoxia and all subjects are scanned for the genes implicated in the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The idea is that subjects with an impaired oxygen sensing will exhibit an altered chemoreflex and will be intolerant to high-altitude.

title: Safety and Efficacy of Pravastatin in Relapsing-remitting MS: a Double Blind Placebo Controlled Study

summary: Therapeutic strategies for multiple sclerosis (MS) are essentially based on the use of immunomodulatory agents such as interferon b and glatirmere acetate, but their efficacy is quite limited, they are not well tolerated and they have a very high cost. Recent works showed an immunomodulatory effects of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (the so-called "statins"). In experimental allergic encephalopathy, a murine model of MS, statins inhibit the onset and progression of the disease through a shift from Th1 towards Th2 cytokine production. Other in vitro studies suggest the ability of statins to inhibit the lymphocyte migration through the blood brain barrier. Furthermore, in an open labeled human study in MS, statin regimen was associated with a decreased lesional activity assessed by MRI. Statins are well tolerated drugs, used for many years, with a low cost and with a putative efficacy in MS. The investigators suggest to test the pravastatin safety and efficacy on MRI criteria in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study in 40 patients with a relapsing-remitting MS.


title: Evaluation of the Efficiency of Radiofrequency in the Treatment of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

summary: Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a frequent disease and which heavily affects the patients' quality of life. To alleviate symptoms and ease the healing of lesion, patients very often need to continuously take anti-secretory drugs (Proton pump inhibitors or PPIs), which, despite their efficiency, do not cure the disease. For these PPI dependent patients, an anti-reflux surgery (fundoplication often made by coelioscopy) is a possible alternative but it has a significant morbidity rate and even an estimated post-operative mortality of 0.8% outside of expertise centres. Therefore, new therapeutic endoscopic approaches, supposed to be less invasive and less expensive than surgery have been developed during the last three years. Among them, radiofrequency (Stretta® procedure) consists in administering a high frequency current in the cardia area, in order to induce thanks to a thermal effect a sub-mucous remodelling and a modification of the compliance of the cardia regionThe aim of this project carried out in 8 French centres and 2 European centers is to assess through a randomised trial, the efficiency of radiofrequency on PPI dependent patients. The study will be carried out in 2 phases with patients who have been fully informed of the project statement, and particularly of the potential risks of the radiofrequency technique and have given their written acceptation to participate to the study.The first phase, which will last 6 to 11 weeks, will aim at making sure that patients are PPI dependent and define their needs. After this initial phase, patients will be randomised between those who will carry on with the PPI treatment or the radiofrequency treatment. The follow up after this randomisation will last one year. The first assessment of the therapeutic efficiency will be done at 6th month. The 6 additional follow up months will be required for the assessment of mid-term side effects of the treatment and the rate of symptomatic recurrences.

title: CESAR (Randomized Therapeutic Study of Steroid vs. Steroid Plus Cyclosphosphamide for Severe Viscera Henoch-Schoenlein Purpura)

summary: Henoch-Schonlein purpura is a leucocytoclastic systemic vasculitis involving small vessels with the deposition of immune complexes containing IgA. It is characterized by the association of skin, joint and gastrointestinal manifestations. Even though the evolution is usually simple, some patients, especially adults, may have severe visceral involvement including heart, lung, brain and renal disease. The best treatment is currently unknown. This study will test the safety and efficacy of steroids associated or not with cyclosphosphamide to treat the acute lesions and to prevent the development of chronic lesions.

title: Working Memory Updating in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Study of Neural Correlates Using fMRI

acronym: METRAPI

summary: Neuropsychological studies investigating trauma-exposed and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) subjects have generally underlined the significantly poorer performance of tasks that require attention, concentration, and verbal memory, and difficulty in regulating memories surrounding the traumatic event. A previous study (El Hage et al. Cognitive Neuropsychiatry, 2006) revealed that the trauma-exposed subjects scored higher on anxiety/depression scales, and lower on processing speed tests. Moreover, the study showed significant impairment in working memory partially mediated by speed processing, but not by anxiety or depression. These results suggest that processing speed makes a major contribution to trauma-related working memory decline, and needs to be investigated in further studies.The aim of the present study is to explore correlation between hippocampus volume, frontal dysfunction and cognitive slowing in trauma-exposed subjects, while examining brain activation during performance of working memory tasks using functional magnetic resonance.

title: Comparison of the Success Rate of a Procedure With Peeling of Limiting the Intern of the Retina Versus a Traditional Procedure Without Peeling of Limiting, at Patients Presenting a Macular Hole.

summary:
Rational of the study: for macular holes larger than 400 µm the rate of failure is of more than 20%. It is for these eyes that it is necessary to show the benefit of internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling in term of vision and success rate. In order to test the benefit of this gesture, it is necessary to make a randomized study.

Primary objective: To show that the percentage of success (anatomical closing, confirmed by OCT) at third postoperative month is higher in the ILM peeling group.

Design of the study: Randomized multicentric study, in parallel groups, with individual benefit for the patient.

Tested Hypothesis: The success rate of the surgery of idiopathic macular holes larger than 400 µm is increased by the peeling of the MLI.

Awaited results: To show that the success rate of the surgery of idiopathic macular holes larger than 400 µm is improved by ILM peeling. This category could then have a success rate similar to the small holes. If this difference is not proven, it will remain no justification to continue this procedure which represents little risk but which is not either without consequence.

title: Prospective Randomized Controlled Open-Labelled Trial Comparing Effect of Two Haemoglobin Levels (110- 129 g/L and 130 - 149 g/L) on Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and With Chronic Kidney Disease

summary:
In type 2 diabetics, progression from chronic kidney disease to end stage renal disease may be slowed down by therapeutic interventions as angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors use, control of high blood pressure and proteinuria, control of hyperglycaemia, protein intake restriction, smoking cessation.

Correcting anaemia in these patients may prevent impairment of renal function. International guidelines indicate that haemoglobin level has to be of 110 g/L in these patients. We conduct an interventional randomized trial to evaluate the potential benefit of an haemoglobin level of 130 g/L in patients with type 2 diabetes and with a chronic kidney disease defined by a Cockcroft's creatinine clearance of 25 - 60 ml/min.

summary: Pompe disease (also known as glycogen storage disease Type II) is caused by a deficiency of a critical enzyme in the body called acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). Normally, GAA is used by the body's cells to break down glycogen (a stored form of sugar) within specialized structures called lysosomes. In patients with Pompe disease, an excessive amount of glycogen accumulates and is stored in various tissues, especially heart and skeletal muscle, which prevents their normal function. The overall objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of rhGAA in patients with advanced Late-onset Pompe disease.

title: Randomized Trial of Vertebroplasty and Radiotherapy Versus Radiotherapy Alone for Osseous Spine Metastases

summary:
A randomized phase III study of palliative external beam radiotherapy (RTOG 97-14) has shown that 8 Gy in a single fraction is very effective in providing pain relief, with complete or partial improvement in pain seen in 66% of patients with bone metastases. Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PV) is a technique designed to consolidate pathologic vertebral bodies through the injection of orthopaedic cement under fluoroscopic guidance. Consolidation provides rapid pain relief to painful vertebral body lesions secondary to osteoporosis, haemangiomas, myeloma and metastatic diseases, with complete or partial improvement in pain seen in 70-85% of patients. To date, no randomized trial has tested the association of vertebroplasty and radiotherapy to enhance pain relief for patients with painful osseous spine metastases.

A randomized trial has been designed to determine whether vertebroplasty and radiotherapy (8 Gy in a single fraction) provide enhancement pain and narcotic relief compared to radiotherapy alone for patients with painful osseous spine metastases

title: A Randomized Study of Unmodified Versus Leuko-Reduced Allogeneic Red Blood Cells Transfusion During Surgery in Cancer Patients

summary: There is evidence to suggest that red blood cell concentrate (RBC) transfusion may have immunomodulatory effects. The aim of this randomized single-center trial is to compare immune responses in patients undergoing cancer surgery and given either an unmodified RBC (UN-RBC) or a leuko-reduced RBC (LR-RBC) transfusion perioperatively.


title: In Urgency Hight Digestive Haemorrhage : Gastric Preparation for Endoscopy

summary: Gastric lavage is usually used for gastric preparation before endoscopy in patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding. However, the benefit-risk balance of putting a nasogastric tube in these patients is not clearly defined. This randomized trial is aimed to determine if the use of erythromycin IV before endoscopy could avoid to put a gastric tube for the management of upper gastrointestinal bleeding.


title: Pulmonary Valve Replacement : Study of Comparison Between a Standard Surgical Approach With Extracorporeal Circulation and an Off-pump Hybrid Strategy.

summary: The purpose of this study is to compare 2 techniques of pulmonary valve replacement in patients with a large right ventricular outflow tract: a standard surgical treatment using cardiopulmonary bypass versus a medico-surgical hybrid strategy without extracorporeal circulation.

title: Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Ability in the Characterization of Ovarian Masses

summary:
This study intends to assess the ability of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in the detection of benign and malignant ovarian masses compared to unenhanced ultrasound.

By using an intravascular contrast agent, this noninvasive and feasible imaging technique will allow the investigators to define specific microcirculation patterns in 100 women with ovarian lesions.

The intravascular contrast agent properties will be compared between benign and malignant adnexal masses.

The final purpose of this ultrasonography is to allow the early detection of tumors and to improve the characterization between benign and malignant lesions.
