About this study

Official title: Evidence of Abnormal Fecal Microbiota in Healthy Subjects at High Risk for Crohn's Disease: Family Studies and Relations With a Particular Genetic Profile and Serological. Comparison of Affected Individuals, Their Siblings and Healthy Controls.

Transversal multicentric French study on the microbiota in patients with Crohn's disease and their first degree healthy relatives The primary objective is the comparison of microbiota between patients with CD, healthy controls non genetically linked and first degree healthy relatives of patients with CD.

Read the detailed description

Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease associating flares and remission periods. Its etiology is unknown and there are no specific therapy. CD affects young patients and has a major impact on quality of life. There are few population-based studies and there are about 2.5 million affected patients in Europe and North America. From data from EPIMAD Registry the number of affected patients in France should be 200 000. The Crohn's disease pathogenesis is bad known; It coul be the results of the activation of the gastro-intestinal immune system toward gut microbiota in genetically susceptible hosts. In CD patients there is an important ecologic modification of the flora with an excess of Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria and a decrease of anti inflammatory bacteria (Firmicutes). In ileum of CD patients a specific E Coli (adherent and invasive E Colo) is found in two thirds of cases.The presence of this AIEC seems to be associated to the variant NOD2 (results from our team in multiplex families).

In a family with at least 1 patient with CD, the healthy first degree relatives present a high risk (* 10) to also develop a CD.

The primary objective is the comparison of microbiota between patients with CD, healthy controls non genetically linked and first degree healthy relatives of patients with CD. The first endpoint is the Lachnospiraceae rates in each group.

The secondary objectives are :

  1. the search for an association between bacterial dysbiosis and different genetic backgrounds in patients with CD, their first degree healthy relatives and controls.
  2. the quantification of potential invasive bacteria with invasive properties (E. coli including adherent-invasive E. coli, Shigella, Salmonella, Yersinia, Campylobacter), and fecal fungal flora (Candida albicans, in particular) and their association with genetic and serological profiles in patients with CD, their healthy relatives and control subjects.
  3. a study of environmental risk factors using a questionnaire to be submitted to CD patients, their healthy relatives and control subjects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Lachnospiraceae bacteria in stools within 3 groups

    After extraction DNA, microbiota will be studied via study of ribosomal DNA 16S using quantitative PCR and pyroséquençage

    Measured: 1 YEAR

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of bacteria Firmicutes phylum (including Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Clostridium Leptum) in stools within 3 groups

    After extraction DNA, microbiota will be studied via study of ribosomal DNA 16S using quantitative PCR and pyroséquençage

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Define different genetic and serologic backgrounds within 3 groups

    Genetic analysis will include 380 genetic variants génétiques that will be genotyped including classic variants involved in CD: variants or mutations of NOD2, NOD1, IL23R, ATG16L1, DGL5, TNF, IL6, NFKB1... genes. Serological analysis will included anti-OmpC, anti-I2 and ASCA auto antibodies.

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Quantify of bacteria with invasive properties (including AIEC) within 3 groups

    Amplify bacterial DNA of Salmonella Typhi (amplification of ITS area specific of ARNr 16S-23S gene. For AIEC, using of qPCR methods based on chuA and yjaA genes.

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Study of environmental risk factors within 3 groups

    Specific questionnaire on environmental risk factors including vaccination, antibiotic use, ionfections, Home facilities and Diet befor the CD diagnosis

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Crohn's Disease and Genetic Predisposition, run by University Hospital, Lille at 10 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 7 inclusion and 6 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 11 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 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?

Percentage of Lachnospiraceae bacteria in stools within 3 groups (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 11 Oct 2019.
