Trial summary

The aim of the project is to prospectively analyze at a clinical and molecular level a series of 50 asphyxiating thoracic dysplasia (ATD) patients and 20 fetuses to further define the natural history of the disorder and to contribute to the identification of its molecular basis.

About this study

Official title: Clinical and Molecular Study, Natural History of Asphyxiating Thoracic Dystrophy (DTJ)

The aim of the project is to prospectively analyze at a clinical and molecular level a series of 50 asphyxiating thoracic dysplasia (ATD) patients and 20 fetuses to further define the natural history of the disorder and to contribute to the identification of its molecular basis.

Read the detailed description

Asphyxiating thoracic dysplasia (ATD, MIM 208500) belongs to the short rib polydactyly group and is characterized by short ribs often responsible for an early death due to respiratory distress, trident acetabular roof and short long bones.

In the course of the disease, renal, liver and eye complications may occur. However, their frequencies are unknown.

ATD is transmitted with an autosomal mode of inheritance and up till now only one gene has been identified, namely IFT80, which accounts only for a small part of ATD.

The aim of our project is to prospectively analyze at a clinical and molecular level a series of 50 ATD patients and 20 fetuses to further define the natural history of the disorder and to contribute to the identification of its molecular basis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Asphyxiating Thoracic Dystrophy, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris 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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Dec 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 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?

Natural history of asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy (ATD) (time frame: 3 years). 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 13 Dec 2011.
