About this study

Identification of genes involved in congenital atrioventricular block and progressive Cardiac Conduction Disease.

Read the detailed description

Atrioventricular blocks are a heterogenous group of diseases involving children with congenital atrioventricular block (CAB) and more frequently elderly patients affected by progressive Cardiac Conduction Disease (PCCD).

The aim of the study is to uncover the genetic model, likely more complex than previously appreciated, and characterize the gene expression remodelling leading to high degree of conduction defect.

The recent technological developments in genomics coupled to the availability of large and highly characterized biobanks of patients have now set the stage:

  1. To identify rare genetic variants/new genes contributing to CAB and PCCD by exome sequencing on familial form suspected to impact strongly the phenotype
  2. To identify common genetic variants modulating the risk of developing (severe) PCCD by GWAS
  3. To estimate the prevalence and relevance of genes uncovered by TASK#1, #2 in large patient sets (PCCD and CAB) by NGS.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Congenital Complete Heart Block and Cardiac Conduction Defect Progressive, run by Nantes University Hospital at 2 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Sep 2021. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact vincent PROBST, MD-PHD (vincent.probst@chu-nantes.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Identification of genetic variations responsible of Atrioventricular Conduction Defects (time frame: inclusion). 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 9 Sep 2021.
