Trial summary

Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) is a cell surface receptor expressed on neutrophils and monocytes. TREM-1 acts to amplify inflammation and serves as a critical mediator of inflammatory response in the context of sepsis. Blocking of TREM-1 can protect against sepsis in mice.

About this study

Official title: Association Between TREM-1 Gene Polymorphisms and Prognosis in Sepsis Patient

Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) is a cell surface receptor expressed on neutrophils and monocytes. TREM-1 acts to amplify inflammation and serves as a critical mediator of inflammatory response in the context of sepsis. Blocking of TREM-1 can protect against sepsis in mice. This study was designed to investigate whether TREM-1 genomic variations were associated with the prognosis of sepsis. We sequenced 30 sepsis patients with TREM-1 gene of four exons by PCR sequencing. When analyzing the results of sequencing, we found two gene polymorphisms located in exon-2 and exon-4, respectively. Compare with the NCBI dbSNP and Hapmap database, one polymorphisms located in exon-2 is non-synonymous variation rs2234237(Ser25Thr), the other one located in exon-4 is synonymous variation rs2234246. Two common polymorphisms (rs2234237,rs2234246) within the TREM-1 gene were detected in 80 patients with severe sepsis and in 80 healthy control subjects. This study was explored that whether or not polymorphisms detected within the TREM-1 gene may play a major role in the predisposition to prognosis of sepsis in a Chinese Han cohort.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sepsis, run by Chinese PLA General Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 1 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 China. 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?

Patients Outcome (time frame: 28 days). 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 NCT01490424, 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 13 Dec 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
