About this study

This is a prospective, multicenter, non-interventional, observational study of a cohort with a biological plasma and urine samples collection for the study of prognosis factors of cardiac complications after liver transplantation

Read the detailed description

Liver transplantation (LT) is the standard treatment for chronic or acute hepatic insufficiency with 87% of one-year survival. Cardiovascular complications are common after LT with an incidence at 6 months ranging between 25 and 50 %. These complications are associated with significant morbidity and represents the third cause of post LT mortality. Myocardial perfusion imaging or stress echocardiography, used for preoperative cardiovascular evaluation, are not enough efficient to predict the risk of post LT cardiovascular complications. However, to improve the prediction capacity of cardiovascular disease is fundamental in order to better select the candidates for LT or to develop preventive strategies. Such a strategy could reduce the morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular diseases after LT and improve the results of LT. Cardiovascular biomarkers such as troponin or natriuretic peptide are known to be predictive factors of postoperative cardiovascular complications in non cardiac surgery. The use of biomarkers in combination with conventional tests could improve the preoperative prediction of post LT cardiovascular complications.

Hypothesis: The preoperative biomarkers dosage could improve the prediction of cardiovascular complications occurring in the year after LT.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cardiovascular complications

    Identify risk factors for occurrence of cardiovascular complications in the year following the transplantation.

    Cardiovascular complications include myocardial infarction, increase of cardiac troponin, cardiogenic pulmonary edema, cardiogenic shock, ventricular or supraventricular arrhythmia requiring treatment, de novo arterial hypertension and death of cardiac cause.

    Measured: 1 year after liver transplantation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Describe prospectively cardiovascular complications after liver transplantation

    Measured: 1 year after liver transplantation

  2. Assess the impact of these complications on morbidity and mortality in intensive care at J28 and 1 year.

    Measured: 1 year after liver transplantation

  3. Gather a biological plasma and urine samples collection for study of new biomarkers.

    Measured: 7 days after liver transplantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatopathy, 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 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Feb 2018. 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?

Cardiovascular complications (time frame: 1 year after liver transplantation). 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 5 Feb 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
