Accessibility of Prophylaxis and On-demand Treatment for Persons With Haemophilia and Other Coagulation Deficiencies

Haemophilia is a rare constitutional hemorrhagic disease whose drug management is based on the use of chronic lifelong replacement therapy. For many years, the reference treatment, particularly in children, has been based on the use of anti-haemophilic drugs for prophylaxis requiring repeated injections several times a week according to a personalized schedule. In contrast, on-demand treatment is less and less used, particularly in patients with severe forms of haemophilia. Clinical and biological diagnosis, as well as the implementation and monitoring of treatments, are carried out within specialized hospital care structures affiliated with the French national reference center. Medications are dispensed as part of hospital retrocessions. This organization imposes constraints on patients and their caregivers due to their limited accessibility. The burden related to this disease is probably due to the systematic use of specialized hospital teams such as doctors, nurses for self-injection training for example, and pharmacists. It now seems important to reflect on the evolution of patient pathways that were previously exclusively hospital-centred towards ambulatory care. To do this, various reflections need to be undertaken, including that relating to the accessibility of medication. Indeed, the monthly renewals of these chronic treatments force patients and their caregivers, as well as the parents of children, to go to the hospital, which frequently makes the organization of daily and professional life more cumbersome. The PHAREO study aims to investigate patients' perception of accessibility to anti-haemophilia drugs in relation to an evaluation of spatial accessibility in order to consider, if necessary, ways of improving the pathway for patients and their caregivers. The expected benefits of the study are to have: 1) an exhaustive description of the spatial accessibility of the cohort of people living with haemophilia to anti-haemophilia medication within the Auvergne Rhône Alpes region (France) and 2) a better understanding of their needs and their perceptions regarding access to on-demand and prophylactic treatments.

Intraoperative Indocyanine Green Fluorescence Angiography in Colorectal Surgery to Prevent Anastomotic Leakage

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most commonly diagnosed cancer in the world and the third in France. Its incidence is steadily rising in developing nations. Anastomotic leak (AL) is a major problem in colorectal surgery affecting at least 7% of patients operated on for left colonic cancer. It is the most feared complication after colorectal anastomosis, associated with mortality, prolonged hospitalization, impaired health related quality of life (HRQoL) and increased health care costs. Intraoperative fluorescence angiography (IOFA) with indocyanine green (ICG) may help preventing AL. Available studies on the effects of IOFA with ICG are heterogeneous and randomized controlled trial are scarce. Our aim is to demonstrate that IOFA with ICG could lead to a reduction of AL rate after left-sided or low anterior resection with anastomosis for CRC. The FLUOCOL-1 study is the first national, multicenter, single blind, randomized, 2-arm, phase III superiority clinical trial. The primary endpoint is the occurrence of an AL 90 days post-operation. AL is defined as any anastomotic dehiscence with leakage into the pelvic cavity diagnosed upon imaging or at surgical exploration or any isolated pelvic organ-space infection with no evidence of fistula as defined by the International Study Group of Rectal Cancer. The study population will be made of adult patients with left-sided or high rectal cancer scheduled to undergo elective left colectomy or high rectal resection (by open, laparoscopy or robotic surgery) and with expected stapled or handsewn intraperitoneal anastomosis. The exclusion criteria are mainly an emergent surgery; rectal cancer requiring total mesorectal excision and anastomosis expected below the peritoneal reflection; CRC requiring total or subtotal colectomy; CRC requiring transverse colectomy; recurrent CRC and locally advanced colorectal cancer requiring multi-visceral excision. The 26 participating centres are equipped with a scope with near-infrared (NIR) light source allowing real-time ICG perfusion assessment. The co-investigators are experienced digestive surgeons trained to work with and without IOFA. They have considerable experience in working together on research projects and have a proven track-record of efficacy. Moreover, this study will receive valuable support from the Surgery Research Network (FRENCH) and the Surgical Research on Rectal Cancer Group (GRECCAR), which have proved their ability to recruit patients into various multicentric studies and with which the FLUOCOL-1 project has been discussed. The duration of participation for each patient is 90 days. The 3 study visits are superimposed to the schedule of standard of care (V1: pre-operation visit of selection and inclusion; Surgery; V2: 30-day post-operation visit and V3: 90-day post-operation visit). The surgeon will do the 1:1 randomization between V1 and the day before surgery (D-30 to D-1). To reduce the risk of bias, patients will be blinded to the study group and the randomization will be stratified on participating centres, Body Mass Index (BMI), physical status classification score (=ASA score), preoperative treatment and tumor location. Patient will be assigned in the intervention (IOFA) or the control group (no IOFA). At the exception of the information given on the study to the patient, the gathering of the written consent, the randomization and the HRQoL questionnaires, the patient will be treated following standard of care. Study data are the data systematically collected in the patient medical file except for the HRQoL questionnaires that will be collected under the supervision of a research technician financed by the study. The technician will capture the study data and the de-identified pdf version of the medical reports (consultations and hospitalizations) in the electronic Case Report Form (eCRF) after every visit. A total of 1010 patients will be necessary (39 patients in each centre during 36 months). An interim analysis for efficacy and futility is scheduled when half of the participants will have been recruited. The ICG will be graciously provided by the manufacturer (SERB). An investigator meeting will be organized twice a year during the annual GRECCAR and FRENCH meetings. Newsletters will be sent every 3 months. In case of positive results favoring IOFA, this study would define the use of IOFA as a standard of care in colorectal surgery. At the patient level, a significantly lower rate of AL will reduce hospital stay and stoma rate, and will ensure improved postoperative recovery, faster return to normal activity and better long-term oncologic outcomes.

French Observational Study of Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma in Real-World Settings

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most frequent form of leukemia in the Western World. The disease is characterized by the accumulation and proliferation of mature, monoclonal, CD5+ B-cells with specific immunophenotype in the peripheral blood (above 5x109/L), bone marrow and secondary lymphoid organs. Small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL) is characterized by similar tumor cells but without increased lymphocyte count. In Europe, CLL has been identified as the second most frequent hematological malignancies after multiple myeloma (Eurocare 5 study) and its standardized incidence in the world has been estimated to be 4/100000 person-years for men and 2.1/100000 person-years for women. In France, 4674 new cases have been observed in 2018 (FRANCIM). A proportion of patients can initially be monitored only while others with symptomatic disease at diagnosis or during follow-up require therapies. The management of these patients have considerably changed over the last decade. Indeed, beyond chemo-immunotherapy, multiple targeted therapies have been approved on the basis of phase 2 and randomized phase 3 clinical trials and have subsequently been used in daily practice. The management of patients with SLL is similar to that of those with CLL. In addition to therapeutic advances, the advent of new sequencing technologies has also identified CLL genetic features that are now being incorporated in patient routine evaluation. Conventional chemo-immunotherapy (CIT) has been the long-standing option for CLL patient without TP53 disruption and different regimens have emerged depending on patient comorbidities (fludarabine-cyclophosphamide-rituximab, FCR; bendamustin-rituximab, BR; GA101-chloraminophene, G-CLB). These regimens fail to be effective in patients with TP53 disruption and alternative strategies are proposed for them. The CLL therapeutic panel is now enriched by oral kinase inhibitors targeting the B-cell receptor signaling. The Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi) have been shown to provide prolonged response, even in cases where CIT usually failed, such as patients harboring TP53 disruption. In relapsed/refractory patients, median PFS with the BTKi ibrutinib is 44 months. In the frontline setting, ibrutinib has recently been shown to result in superior PFS and less infectious complications than standard CIT regimens. The advent of the BCL2 (B-cell lymphoma 2) inhibitor venetoclax has recently added another option for the treatment of CLL patients. BCL2 is an antiapoptotic molecule governing mitochondrial apoptosis and is strongly expressed in CLL cells. Inhibiting BCL2 with venetoclax as monotherapy led to 79% response rate in the relapse/refractory setting. Combining venetoclax to rituximab demonstrated better PFS than bendamustine-rituximab in relapsed/refractory patients. However, these treatment approaches also come with new challenges that are difficult to-address in phase 3 clinical trials and that deserve larger scale studies and longer follow-up. The emergence of drug resistance, the changes of safety profiles to deal with in routine practice and the observance of these orally administered drugs are emerging as new concerns. How these compounds change the incidence of typical CLL complication such as Richter transformation, immune cytopenias and infections remains to be determined. A growing body of concerns is also raising regarding the unlimited administration of some of this the compounds (costs, resistance, tolerance). Finally, the optimal order of use of these drugs is unknown. The advent of the BCL2 (B-cell lymphoma 2) inhibitor venetoclax has recently added another option for the treatment of CLL patients 11,12.

Primary objective : Setting a prospective cohort of real-world CLL/SLL patients with symptomatic disease in order to evaluate medical practices and their change and representativity over time. Secondary objectives : Overall survival and long-term toxicity, Response and PFS at each line of therapy, Impact of therapeutic trajectories on patient outcome, Representativity of the studied population

Survey on Epidemiology of Hypoparathyroidism in France

Very few data has been published on the epidemiology of hypoparathyroidism worldwide. None exists specifically in France. Hypoparathyroidism could led to complications: e.g. symptomatic hypocalcemia, calcifications (brain, eye and other soft tissues), nephrolithiasis/nephrocalcinosis, renal insufficiency. Here,the investigators plan to collect data about both epidemiology, medication and complication of hypoparathyroidism in France.

Randomised Study Evaluating Adjuvant Chemotherapy After Resection of Stage III Colonic Adenocarcinoma in Patients of 70 and Over

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 adjuvant chemotherapy is poorly used in elderly patients. Prognostic improvement with chemotherapy based on 5FU is suggested by a post-hoc analysis of randomized prospective clinical trial. But elderly patients in this study were highly selected and patients older than 80 represented only 0.7% of the total population. Thus, there is still a concern about the benefit of adjuvant 5FU-based chemotherapy in very elderly unselected patients. The recommended treatment for stage III adjuvant chemotherapy is a combination of fuoropyrimidine and oxaliplatin. Nevertheless oxaliplatin did not demonstrated survival advantage in elderly patients. Altogether there are still two matters of debate: - First, is there a benefit of fluoropyrimidine-based adjuvant chemotherapy for unfit elderly patients? - Second, is there a benefit of oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy for fit elderly patients? The aim of this randomized phase III study is to evaluate the benefit for disease-free survival of adjuvant chemotherapy in elderly patient and which chemotherapy. The elderly patient population will be dichotomized into two groups according to physician's choice after a multidisciplinary evaluation involving a geriatrician, with two different randomization assignments. The patients with an expected life-expectancy below 4 years according Lee score are excluded of this study. Some biological tumour abnormalities are more frequently observed in elderly (i.e. mismatch repair deficiency), therefore an evaluation of specific biological prognostic factors is needed in elderly population.
