Factors of Steroid Dependency in Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome
An observational study of Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.
Trial summary
The primary purpose of the study is to identify the factors of steroid dependency in childhood idiopathic nephrotic syndrome. The steroid dependency is defined by a relapse of nephrotic syndrome within the 3 weeks that follow the withdrawal of steroid therapy after the first manifestation. Read more about this study

About this study
The primary purpose of the study is to identify the factors of steroid dependency in childhood idiopathic nephrotic syndrome. The steroid dependency is defined by a relapse of nephrotic syndrome within the 3 weeks that follow the withdrawal of steroid therapy after the first manifestation. Different clinical and biological factors will be analyzed: age of first manifestation, delay of remission, ethnicity, and preceding viral infection, geolocalization in the Parisian area, genoprevalence of herpes viruses and polymorphisms in the genes involved in the response to steroid therapy.
Read the detailed description
Patients with a steroid dependent nephrotic syndrome will be compared to those with a non steroid dependent form of nephrotic syndrome at the end of the first manifestation. An additional blood volume will be sampled in patients and controls during a scheduled biological check-up for the initial disease. Genetics factors will be checked using a DNA chips devoted to the response to steroid therapy and viral genome of EBV, CMV, HHV7 will be searched for using PCR reaction in total blood DNA extract.

What does the primary outcome measure?
define pharmacogenetic factors of steroid dependency (time frame: 28.5 months). 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.
