About this study

to investigate the effect of basal proteinuria on pregnancy outcomes of patients with Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).

Read the detailed description

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is also known recurrent polyserositis the most common hereditary recurrent febrile disorder. It is characterized by paroxysmal episodes of the high fever and signs of serositis-peritonitis, pleuritis, synovitis. Between these attacks, patients are usually asymptomatic. FMF mainly affects populations of the Mediterranean region such as Turks.

The diagnosis of FMF may be extremely difficult to establish in the presence of atypical signs, and absence of family history . Colchicine is effective in most of the patients with FMF. The one the most important complications of FMF is the development of renal amyloidosis. It potentially progress sequentially through preclinical, proteinuric, nephrotic, azotemic and uremic stages to end stage renal disease if not treated properly with colchicine. Previous studies suggests that colchicine does not appear to be a major human teratogen, and, probably, has no cytogenetic effect.

FMF affects females mainly in their childbearing years. FMF is associated with higher rates of recurrent abortion, premature rupture of membranes (PROM) and preterm birth. Despite of adverse outcomes have been reported in pregnants with FMF the outcome of pregnancies in FMF appear favorable with the healthy population since the usingof the colchicine. Although the effect of pregnancy on the course of FMF related amyloidosis is controversial, it is generally accepted that renal function may disrupt during pregnancy.

Few studies have investigated the effect of FMF complications (amyloidosis and nephrotic syndrome) on pregnancy course.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of basal proteinuria on pregnancy outcome of patients with Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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.

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

Contact cantekin iskender, md (+90- 312-306-5000, c_iskender@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

change in proteinuria correlation to the adverse outcomes of pregnancy (time frame: 6 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 NCT02092064, 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?
