Trial summary

Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH)-based microarrays are now often used during pregnancy in case of fetal polymalformation in order to assess significant genomic alterations. However, it is not clear whether array-CGH provide a diagnostic utility in case of isolated congenital heart defect. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prospective Study for Diagnosis Utility of Array-CGH Screening in Case of Non Syndromic Congenital Heart Defect in Prenatal Diagnosis (CAPA)

Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH)-based microarrays are now often used during pregnancy in case of fetal polymalformation in order to assess significant genomic alterations. However, it is not clear whether array-CGH provide a diagnostic utility in case of isolated congenital heart defect.

This is the first prospective study aiming at defining the right chromosomal screening when a fetal isolated congenital heart defect is identified by ultrasound.

Read the detailed description

Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH)-based microarrays are now often used during pregnancy in case of fetal polymalformation in order to assess significant genomic alterations. Up to now, in case of isolated heart defect, only fetal karyotype with FISH 22q11 was usually offered. However, micro deletions or duplications could not be identified elsewhere throughout the genome. Then, in case of fetal chromosomal micro-rearrangements, parents could not be fully informed for global and neurodevelopmental prognosis. To our knowledge, clear-cut study, to assess whether array-CGH provide a diagnostic utility in case of isolated congenital heart defect, don't exist.

After informed consent, 80 women will be enrolled during two years in 2 official prenatal diagnosis centers in France. This survey is assumed to identify at least 8% of unbalanced chromosomal abnormalities. This will be also compared with 22q11 rearrangements rate.

This is the first prospective study aiming at defining the right chromosomal screening when a fetal isolated congenital heart defect is identified by ultrasound.

What is being measured

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

  1. Identification a significant rate of chromosomal imbalances on ACPA > 8%

    Measured: J0

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To compare rates of abnormalities identified by karyotype FISH 22q11 versus ACPA

    Measured: J0

  2. To compare cardiac ultrasound prenatal data with postnatal data including pathological data (if TOP)

    Measured: J0

  3. To compare the nature of chromosomal imbalances with the type of MCC

    Measured: J0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non Syndromic Congenital Heart, run by Rennes University Hospital at 2 sites 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 5 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 28 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

Identification a significant rate of chromosomal imbalances on ACPA > 8% (time frame: J0). 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 28 Jan 2019.
