About this study

Official title: Performance of the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) ELISPOT in the Detection of the T Cellular Immune Response in Patients Infected by HBV or Cured

Activation of the immune system against a pathogen can be considered one of the most effective interventions in the field of infectious diseases.

Transgene is developing a therapeutic vaccine "TG1050" for the treatment of patients with chronic and treated Hepatitis B. This biotherapy compound is for the development of T cellular immune response in these patients in order to achieve the total elimination of infected cells.

Therefore it is necessary to have measures of ways to assess accurately and reliably the presence of such a response in the study subjects.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • blood samples are performed to measure active T cellular immune response during a routine visitBiological

    During the visit 1 (V1), after signing the informed consent, 40 mL blood sampling are carried out and analyzed with the test ELISPOT to check if the patient shows a T immune response against HBV.

    The visit 2 will be performed 4-8 weeks (depending on the availability of the patient) following V1 visit, in case the patient shows an immune response against HBV positive T following the sample taken at V1. 150 ml blood sampling are carried out at this visit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of T cell response by hepatitis B antigen detected in at least one subject.

    The method is based on the ELISPOT test. The method measures the cytokine secretion associated with immune activation after stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells

    Measured: at day 1

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The probability of detection of a positive T cell response in a single measurement

    Measured: at day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatitis B, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon 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 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 29 Dec 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?

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?

Measurement of T cell response by hepatitis B antigen detected in at least one subject. (time frame: at day 1). 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 29 Dec 2016.
