CCIR provides a safe and secure platform for:

  • sharing anonymous medical information about cystinosis with researchers, clinicians and patients
  • disseminating information about research opportunities
  • connecting researchers/investigators and prospective participants *

Interested cystinosis patients may register themselves with CCIR online at http://www.cystinosisregistry.org.

  • No personal information is shared outside of CCIR. Individual identities are known only to appropriate CCIR staff. If a participant is matched to a clinical trial, the participant receives a notice from CCIR, after which they can decide whether they wish to contact the study sponsor.

Significance and Purpose:

Many different resources and tools are necessary to make significant advances in medical research. Progress in rare diseases such as cystinosis can often be impeded by the lack of information available about the disease and limited access to volunteers eligible for clinical trials. Therefore, patients who are willing to provide information about how the disease has affected them and also make themselves available to participate in trials are among the most valuable resources the investigators have to fight a disease. However, the research community desperately needs the right tool that will permit access to these resources.

A tool widely used to conveniently collect both data about a disease and information about potential clinical trial participants is a patient registry. A patient registry is any system that allows for the organized collection of data about disease outcomes in affected populations for a scientific, clinical, or policy purpose. The Cystinosis Research Foundation (CRF) has aligned itself with cystinosis medical experts and organizations worldwide to create the first ever international, online patient registry for cystinosis, Cure Cystinosis International Registry (CCIR). The express purpose of CCIR is to make anonymous information available to the research community and thus promote accelerated research in advanced treatments and ultimately a cure for cystinosis.

Objectives:

The objectives of CCIR are:

  • Evaluate epidemiology and clinical characteristics of cystinosis around the world.
  • Evaluate and compare the diagnosis, treatment, and kidney transplant rates among cystinosis communities from different geographical areas.
  • Enhance the understanding of how cystinosis affects quality of life.

CCIR Registration:

Interested cystinosis patients may register themselves with CCIR online at http://www.cystinosisregistry.org. Registration is easy and secure. Simply go to the website and create a CCIR account and complete a survey. The CCIR website is currently available in English and Spanish, and will soon be available in French, Portuguese, and possibly other languages.

Benefits to CCIR participants include instant access to the registry's accumulated survey results (reported as anonymous group data), and opportunities to submit questions to cystinosis experts and to learn of clinical trial opportunities. No personal information is shared outside of CCIR. Individual identities are known only to appropriate CCIR staff.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cystinosis and Nephropathic Cystinosis, run by Cystinosis Research Foundation 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?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 0 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2014. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Betty L Cabrera, M.P.H (858-822-3747, curator@cystinosisregistry.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Age at treatment initiation and the effect on disease outcomes (time frame: Lifetime). 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 NCT01327807, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 12 Mar 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
