Trial summary

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine whether allelic differences associated with the fourth component of complement, type-1 complement receptor expressed on erythrocytes, and Fc receptor FcgRIII contribute to the pathogenesis of IgA glomerulonephritis (IgA-N). II. Read more about this study

About this study

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine whether allelic differences associated with the fourth component of complement, type-1 complement receptor expressed on erythrocytes, and Fc receptor FcgRIII contribute to the pathogenesis of IgA glomerulonephritis (IgA-N).

II. Compare genetic anomalies of these key components in immune complex processing and clearance between juvenile vs adult onset IgA-N vs normal controls.

PROTOCOL OUTLINE:

Participants undergo qualitative genetic analysis of complement-related proteins. Studies include: genomic re-arrangement of 4-gene unit, C4 DNA sequence and RNA expression, type-1 complement receptor DNA sequence, Fc-gamma receptor IIIA isoform analysis, classical and alternative complement activation pathway assays, plasma C4 and C4d protein levels, and immunoglobulin patterns in glomerular deposits.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of IGA Glomerulonephritis, run by National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jun 2005. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Jun 2005; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
