Maintaining or Stopping Immunosuppressive Therapy in Patients With ANCA Vasculitis and End-stage Renal Disease

This prospective randomized trial aims to evaluate the feasibility, risk and benefit of the discontinuation of immunosuppressive maintenance treatments in AAV (Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Autoantibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitis) patients who have reached ESRD (end-stage renal disease). Our hypothesis is that discontinuation of immunosuppressive therapy in AAV patients with ESRD will not expose …

Treatment Intensification With Temozolomide in Adults With a Glioblastoma

Due to conflicting data on the optimal moment to start TMZ chemotherapy and the impact of prolongation of the adjuvant phase with TMZ, the ANOCEF (Association des Neuro-Oncologues d'Expression Francophone) group proposes this randomized trial comparing an intensified arm (early TMZ and extended adjuvant TMZ until toxicity, progression or patient …

Sulfasalazine in AML Treated by Intensive Chemotherapy: Elderly Patients-first Line Treatment

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous clonal myeloid neoplasm where abnormal proliferation and impaired differentiation of hematopoietic stem and myeloid progenitor cells impedes normal hematopoiesis. Sulfasalazine (SSZ) is a broadly available, well tolerated anti-inflammatory medicine approved for the treatment of ulcerative colitis and rheumatoid arthritis. Intact SSZ, but not …

Study Evaluating DNA Double-strand Breaks (DSBs) REpair Factors (POLQ, Shieldin Complex and 53BP1) Expression as Biomarker of PARP Inhibitor Resistance in Patients With Deleterious Germline Mutation in BRCA 1/2 and HER2-negative, Metastatic or Locally Advanced Breast Cancer.

The purpose of this study is to assess whether expression of not only POLQ/Polθ, but also Shieldin complex and/or 53BP1 are correlated with primary and/or acquired resistance to PARPi (Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerases inhibitors) in a sub-population of locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer patients and vary regarding type and location of …

Management of Progressive Disease in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a prototype of chronic, progressive, and fibrotic lung disease. It has been considered rare, with an incidence estimated to 11.5 cases per 100 000 individuals per year. Increasing rates of hospital admissions and deaths due to IPF suggest an increasing burden of disease. The median …

Rifabutin Versus Rifampicin for Treatment of Staphylococcal PJI Treated With DAIR

Rifampicin, is key in the treatment of staphylococcal PJIs. Rifabutin has a better profile of tolerance than rifampicin regarding the risk of interaction with concomitant medications and liver disorders. The hypothesis is that rifabutin may be an alternative antibiotic option as efficient as rifampicin for the treatment of staphylococcal PJIs, …

ICITRU : Randomized Trial of Immunonutrition With L-citrulline in Patients Hospitalized in Intensive Care for Sepsis or Septic Shock

Immunonutrition in intensive care has not yet demonstrated a beneficial effect on organ failure, the acquisition of nosocomial infections, or mortality. It did not correct for acquired immunosuppression in intensive care patients. Despite numerous methodological problems (use of several pharmaconutrients, very heterogeneous set of patients) and the absence of clinical …

Optimization of Skin Preparation to Reduce Cutibacterium Acnes Colonization in Superficial and Deep Samples During Prosthetic Shoulder Surgery in Male Patients

Infections on joint replacements remain one of the most serious complications of orthopaedic surgery. Despite improvements in skin preparation and antibiotic prophylaxis procedures, the risk of infection of joint prosthesis is still high, particularly for shoulder prostheses, especially in men. One of the bacteria most often involved in post-operative infections …

Study of Ibrutinib + CD20 Antibody and Venetoclax in Patients With Untreated Mantle Cell Lymphoma

The OASIS II trial is a multicentre, open label, randomized phase II trial. We will compare the efficacy of Ibrutinib/anti-CD20 Ab versus Ibrutinib/anti-CD20 Ab/Venetoclax given as fixed duration combinations in newly diagnosed Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) patients (≥ 18 years and < 80 years of age). Treatment duration of Ibrutinib …
