Researchers are evaluating the real-world effectiveness of deucravacitinib in adults diagnosed with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. This observational study aims to understand how this treatment works outside of controlled clinical trials, focusing on health outcomes important to patients and doctors. It is sponsored by Bristol-Myers Squibb and conducted in France. Participants in this study have started treatment with deucravacitinib as prescribed by their doctors. The study observes these patients over time without altering their treatment plans. There are no placebo or comparison groups since this is an observational study that follows patients initiating deucravacitinib treatment. During the study, doctors will assess skin condition using the Physicians Global Assessment and measure quality of life with the Dermatology Life Quality Index at baseline and several points up to 24 months. Patients will also report symptoms like itch, skin pain, and fatigue using visual scales. Researchers will track how long patients remain on treatment and reasons for stopping. The study involves regular follow-ups at months 1, 4, 12, 18 optional, and 24 to gather this information.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of Abrocitinib in adults with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis, a long-lasting skin condition that causes inflammation, redness, and irritation. This observational study aims to understand how Abrocitinib works in real-life clinical settings for patients aged 18 and older who do not have other medical conditions that would prevent them from taking the medication. All participants will take Abrocitinib as a daily tablet and may also use medicated topical treatments for their condition. The study lasts 24 months, during which participants will be monitored regularly. They will visit the study clinic approximately five times, about once every 4 to 6 months, to report their experiences and health status while using the medication. Throughout the study, researchers will assess participants using various measures such as skin condition scores, itching severity scales, and sleep quality assessments. They will also track treatment adherence, any changes in medication dosage, and any side effects. The main outcome focuses on the proportion of patients achieving clear or almost clear skin after 16 weeks, with ongoing evaluations through 24 months to monitor safety and effectiveness.

Non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer NMIBC is a type of bladder tumor that affects the inner lining of the bladder without invading the muscle layer. This research aims to collect and analyze real-world data on how NMIBC is managed and followed up in clinical practice across France. The study seeks to assess the performance of urine tests used to detect tumor recurrence and to understand variations in treatment and patient outcomes. The study is observational and involves collecting medical data from patients being monitored for NMIBC, including results from urine biomarker tests done before biopsies or resections. Urologists participating in the French Urology Association will record findings from regular bladder endoscopic exams and urine test results during routine care visits. Data analysis will focus on the accuracy of urine tests in predicting tumor recurrence and how this varies by tumor characteristics and prior treatments. Participants will have their medical history, treatments, and urine test results entered into a registry at enrollment. During follow-up visits scheduled as part of their personalized care, data on bladder exams and urine tests will be collected. Researchers will evaluate outcomes such as recurrence-free survival and the diagnostic value of urine biomarkers over a five-year period. The study plans to include around 8,000 patients over six years to improve understanding of NMIBC management and follow-up.

Researchers are studying how inhaled aromatherapy using a mixture of ginger and lemon essential oils can help manage nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy in patients with blood cancers. This study aims to see if adding this aromatherapy to standard anti-nausea treatments improves nausea scores, quality of life, and appetite during the first day of chemotherapy treatment. The trial is conducted across multiple centers with experienced medical and nursing staff coordinating the safe and scientific use of aromatherapy. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups one receives the usual anti-nausea treatment plus inhalation of the ginger and lemon essential oil blend, while the other receives the same standard care plus a placebo aromastick with a neutral, odorless oil. Patients will use their assigned aromastick during three chemotherapy cycles. The study uses a double-blind design to compare the effects of the inhaled aromatherapy against placebo. During the study, participants will be monitored for nausea and vomiting intensity at various times up to three months after treatment begins. Researchers will also assess quality of life, dietary intake, and the use of antiemetic medications. The study includes evaluations at one day, four days, one month, two months, and three months to gather comprehensive data on symptoms and overall well-being. The total participation period covers multiple chemotherapy cycles and follow-up assessments to understand the impact of aromatherapy on chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting.
