About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Predictive Genetic Markers of Response to Biologic Therapies in Chronic Arthritis

Use of genotyping for the optimization of treatment with biologics in chronic arthritis by looking for an association between certain alleles and response to treatment.

Read the detailed description

Chronic arthritis in children and in adults represent a public health problem in number and difficulty of treatment. 30% of patients are non-responders and / or relapse upon discontinuation of treatment. Some of these treatments are not always well tolerated, sometimes with infectious complications including tuberculosis limiting the use of biological therapies. This study will validate a battery of genetic markers to predict responders biotherapy, determine the prognosis of patients, these treatments are reserved for the most severe forms, and thus improve the care of patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Arthritis, run by University Hospital, Montpellier.

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Proportion of responsive patients with a given polymorphism (%) (time frame: At the inclusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02909998, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 21 Sep 2016.
