Trial summary

Using a human pangenomic microarray, the researchers established expression profiles of nasal epithelial cells, collected by brushing of patients belonging to one of four distinct groups: 1. allergic rhinitis to dust mite (AR) isolated (n=12), 2. AR associated with bronchial hyperreactivity (n=12), 3. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Nasal Epithelium Gene Expression Profiling in Child Respiratory Allergic

Using a human pangenomic microarray, the researchers established expression profiles of nasal epithelial cells, collected by brushing of patients belonging to one of four distinct groups:

  1. allergic rhinitis to dust mite (AR) isolated (n=12),
  2. AR associated with bronchial hyperreactivity (n=12),
  3. AR associated with asthma (n=14),
  4. control (n=14).
Read the detailed description

Context: Asthma is the most frequent chronic disease in childhood. Allergic rhinitis has been described as a risk factor to develop asthma. The objective of the study was to evaluate the contribution of the respiratory epithelium to development of allergic rhinitis and asthma and to identify the molecular mechanisms driving rhinitis toward asthma.

Methods: Using a human pangenomic microarray, we established expression profiles of nasal epithelial cells, collected by brushing of patients belonging to one of four distinct children 2 to 18 years of age groups:

  1. allergic rhinitis to dust mite (AR) isolated (n=12),
  2. AR associated with bronchial hyperreactivity (n=12),
  3. AR associated with asthma (n=14),
  4. control (n=14).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Transcriptome analysis: genes statistically modulated between groups, predictive biomarkers allowing correct classification of groups

    Measured: At the sample time

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Validation with other techniques: Q-PCR

    Measured: At the sample time

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Collection of nasal epithelial cells in people with Allergic Rhinitis, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice 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 6 inclusion and 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2009. 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 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?

Transcriptome analysis: genes statistically modulated between groups, predictive biomarkers allowing correct classification of groups (time frame: At the sample time). 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 NCT00569361, 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 9 Jun 2009.
