About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Impact of the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Insertion/Deletion Polymorphism on the Development of Acute Renal Failure in Critically Ill Patients

Associations between angiotensin-converting enzyme gene polymorphism and occurrence and outcome of ARDS, and with respiratory complications post cardiopulmonary bypass have already been demonstrated. Based on physiological effects of angiotensin II, we hypothesized that the I allele of the angiotensin-converting enzyme Insertion/Deletion polymorphism may be associated with a higher risk of acute renal failure in critically ill patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Kidney Failure, Acute and Critical Illness, run by University Hospital, Caen at 1 site in France.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jan 2008. 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 France. 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 was stopped early (reason given: The study was stopped on november 2006 after inclusion was fulfilled). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Incidence of ARF (time frame: During ICU stay). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00316576, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Jan 2008.
