Trial summary

Purpose: The mechanism of most of the multifactorial chylomicronemia (MCM) remains elusive. In order to decipher the mechanisms involved in the occurrence of this disease, plasma TG lipolysis characteristics will be monitored for 60 minutes after heparin injection instead of the 10 minutes gold standard, in a large… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Systematic Study of Post Herapin Lipoprotein Lipase Activity and Lipoprotein Remodelling in Multifactorial Chylomicronemia

Purpose: The mechanism of most of the multifactorial chylomicronemia (MCM) remains elusive. In order to decipher the mechanisms involved in the occurrence of this disease, plasma TG lipolysis characteristics will be monitored for 60 minutes after heparin injection instead of the 10 minutes gold standard, in a large group of genotyped MCM patients.

Purpose: The mechanism of most of the multifactorial chylomicronemia (MCM) remains elusive. In order to decipher the mechanisms involved in the occurrence of this disease, plasma TG lipolysis characteristics will be monitored for 60 minutes after heparin injection instead of the 10 minutes gold standard, in a large group of genotyped MCM patients.

Method: LPL, APOC2, APOA5, GPIHB1and APOE genotypes will be determined for each patient. Basal lipid profiles including Apo B, CII, CIII, and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) concentration will be measured in 62 MCM patients, in addition to LPL activity (PHLA) T0, T10 T30 T60 minutes, Assessment of TG chylomicron decrease Study of lipoprotein remodelling by agarose gel electrophoresis.

Hypothesis To confirm the preliminary finding of high LPL activity in multifactorial chylomicronemia To explore the interest of a longer assessment of LPL activity following heparin injection. To establish if specific phenotypes could be identified among MCM patient supporting the hypothesis of different mechanisms involved (ie overproduction or defect in hepatic clearance)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hyperlipoproteinemia, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon.

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 1 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 14 Oct 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?

Lipoprotein Lipase concentration (time frame: 60 minutes after heparin injection). 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 14 Oct 2016.
