Trial summary

The aim of this study is to identify families with hereditary chronic tubulointerstitial renal diseases , characterize the phenotype and screen for mutations in known genesis (UMOD, REN, TCF2, NPHP1). Genome wide analysis will be performed in families without mutations identified. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phenotypical and Genetic Characterization of Adult Hereditary Chronic Tubulointerstitial Renal Diseases

The aim of this study is to identify families with hereditary chronic tubulointerstitial renal diseases , characterize the phenotype and screen for mutations in known genesis (UMOD, REN, TCF2, NPHP1). Genome wide analysis will be performed in families without mutations identified.

Read the detailed description
  • Inclusion of affected subjects with familial history of chronic renal failure, early gout ,renal cysts in several hospital in France
  • Characterization of the phenotype; dosage of the urinary uromodulin in all subjects
  • Collect DNA samples
  • Screen for UMO mutations first
  • Then for REN or TCF2 depending on the phenotype
  • Validate the use of the dosage of urinary uromodulin for the diagnosis of UMOD associated disease.
  • Identify new genes responsible for hereditary HTIN (Hereditary Tubulointerstitial Nephritis).

What is being measured

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

  1. Genotype of HTIN

    Number of patients/families with mutations in known genes responsible for HTIN

    Measured: after 18 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Uromodulin dosage in urine

    Measured: at 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood and urine sample collections in people with Nephritis, Interstitial and Chronic Renal Failure, 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 6 inclusion and 7 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 1 Dec 2025. 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?

Genotype of HTIN (time frame: after 18 months). 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 NCT01312727, 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 1 Dec 2025.
