Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Enrollement of individuals and families followed in the reference centers and the competence centers, * search for mutations in one of known genes such as FBN1, TGFBR1, TGFBR2, ACTA2, or MYH11. * search for new genes in families and individuals with TAA who without mutation in one of the known genes.

Who may be able to join

  • For all:
  • Aged > 18 years.
  • Written informed consent obtained.
  • People with health insurance.
  • For individual:
  • people ≥ 45 years, thoracic aortic aneurysm without syndrome,
Show all 10Show fewer
  • or people > 45 years with familial TAA.
  • For family:
  • At least 2 members of family in 2 generations have TAA without syndrome and at least 2 patients of TAA will undergo blood collection.
  • All people in family will undergo blood collection, each member should declare at first his (her) status (with or without TAA, unknown), the relationship (direct relative family or family in-law), no limit of age. For the children, only those with TAA will perform blood collection for the study.

Who cannot join

  • Thoracic aortic aneurysm with different syndromes (Marfan syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Loeys-Dietz syndrome, Turner syndrome, Noonan syndrome).
  • Arterial hypertension.

About this study

Official title: Identification of Genes and Pathogenesis Involved in Familial Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (TAA)

The primary objectives of the study are

  • to assess the contribution of alteration of each known gene on non-syndromic TAA.
  • to map and identify unknown gene involved in the non-syndromic TAA.
Read the detailed description

The secondary objectives of the study are

  • to study the correlation of phenotype-genotype, in particular, to compare the aortic phenotype of non-syndromic TAA patients and TAA syndromic patients.
  • to develop national standardized strategies of genetic diagnosis and of clinical management using genetic data.

What is being measured

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

  1. Impact of known mutations and research of new genes involved in non syndromic TAA

    Research for mutations in known genes such as FBN1, TGFBR1, TGFBR2, ACTA2, or MYH11.

    Research for new genes in families and in individuals TAA patients without known mutation.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm, 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 10 inclusion and 2 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 20 Nov 2017. 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?

Impact of known mutations and research of new genes involved in non syndromic TAA (time frame: 1 year). 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 20 Nov 2017.
