Trial summary

This study is being done to determine how the body fights off a common virus known as Cytomegalovirus (CMV). CMV is a virus that commonly infects humans and causes disease in patients with compromised immune function such as those who receive organ and tissue transplant. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Kinetics of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Replication and CMV-specific Immune Reconstitution After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

This study is being done to determine how the body fights off a common virus known as Cytomegalovirus (CMV). CMV is a virus that commonly infects humans and causes disease in patients with compromised immune function such as those who receive organ and tissue transplant. By knowing how the human body responds to the infection, researchers will be able to develop better methods on how to prevent this infection.

Read the detailed description

This study is looking at the CMV virus in Hematopoietic stem cell donors and recipients. In the donor population, the study is looking at the participants blood to see if they contain cells that are active against the virus. Information about the donor will be obtained through an interview and through review of medical records. A blood sample will be drawn at the time of the donor's evaluation, which will take place in conjunction with the regular blood tests that are ordered. Participants of the study who are donors will only be involved in the study at the time of blood collection.

Participants who will be receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplantation will have data collected through an interview and review of medical records. Participants will have blood drawn prior to transplant, weekly for 12 weeks and then monthly for three months following transplant. In addition, if CMV disease develops during this period of time, blood will be drawn till the participant is cured for the disease. All blood draws for thes study will take place in conjunction with the regular routine blood work. Participants will be in the study for one year after transplant.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cytomegalovirus Infection, run by Mayo Clinic 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 May 2011. 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To characterize the kinetics of CMV-specific immunity after HSCT.. The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 May 2011.
