Trial summary

It is commonly accepted that the characteristics of the organ donor impact on the future post transplant. In lung transplantation (LP), the defining characteristics of the "ideal" donor includes an age less than 55 years. Read more about this study

About this study

It is commonly accepted that the characteristics of the organ donor impact on the future post transplant. In lung transplantation (LP), the defining characteristics of the "ideal" donor includes an age less than 55 years. However, before the pulmonary graft shortage with a corresponding mortality still too high waiting list, the lung graft acceptance criteria were reassessed permitting criteria "extension" ( "marginal" graft). And were grafted, depending on the urgency and accessibility problems in the registry of potential candidate, organs from donors aged 55 and older with quite comparable to those obtained from younger donors . Nevertheless, it is common practice that the grafts from older donors are more readily allocated to older candidates and the most severe, as many confounding factors to assess the real impact of donor age on post-transplant evolution on small cohorts.

The main goal of this study is to compare the survival of lung transplant patients depending on the age difference between donor and recipient.

The study will be conducted from a broad national cohort of lung transplant patients registered in COLT ( Lung Transplantation COhort). Established in September 2009, promoted by the University Hospital of Nantes, COLT involves 11 lung transplant centers authorized on French territory. It provides a standardized common longitudinal monitoring of the recipient from his transplant. Currently more than 1,000 patients included in this study are transplanted.

What is being measured

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

  1. Age difference in years between donor and recipient

    The age difference will then be able to define two groups of patients:

    • 1 group with an age difference < 10 years
    • 1 group with an age difference > 10 years

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Transplantation, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 4 Aug 2016. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Urielle DESALBRES (04 91 38 20 61, urielle.desalbres@ap-hm.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Age difference in years between donor and recipient (time frame: 1 day). 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 4 Aug 2016.
