About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Efficacy of the Sequencing Method by Gene-panel, Compared to the Reference Sanger Method, on Patients With Primary Immuno-deficiencies, and Who Need a Genetic Diagnosis.

In order to accelerate the identification of genes responsibles of PID, and to improve the diagnosis of PID, the research team would like to validate a rapid and targeted method of high-throughput sequencing, on 301 genes, known to be involved in PID.

Read the detailed description

The Primary Immuno-Deficiencies (PID) are a set of rare diseases (estimated incidence of 1/5000). Today, more than 320 PID are described, and for 301 of them, the genetic cause has been identified, which underlines the huge diversity of all PID.

The genetic diagnosis of PID is very important for the comprehension of PID physiopathology, their treatment and the genetic patient information.

The characterisation of the clinical and immunological phenotype of patients allowed to identify a known morbid gene in 30% of cases, but for other patients, the genetic cause remains unknown, due to, inter alia, the lack of efficient tools for genetic exploration.

In this context, each year, around 600 French and foreign patients are explored at the Necker hospital CEDI (Center for Immuno-Deficiencies Explorations), for whom are identified, in 30% of cases, a known genetic cause.

Their treatment and the diagnosis of these patients is slow, partially because these studies are dependants of research fundings. In addition, in the current practice, the investigators sometimes discover incidental findings via the non-targeted high throughput genetic analyzes.

The aim of the gene-panel is to improve the diagnosis procedures of these known diseases, by generalizing a rapid and targeted method of sequencing, on 301 genes, known to be involved in PID.

Being tested
Blood sampling

What participants receive

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

  • Blood samplingBiological

    Additional blood sampling for the realization of the test on the gene panel

Study groups in NCT02954640
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patient with PIDOtherFor patient with clinical diagnosis of PID, an additional blood sampling will be taken. The genetic diagnosis will be done via the method of gene-panel in the frame of the study. A genetic confirmation will, in any case, be done via the reference method (Sanger), in order to establish a final diagnosis for these patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of the 2 sequencing methods

    Assess the efficacy of the identification of the genetic cause of PID, via the high throughput gene panel sequencing method, compared to the reference Sanger method, on patients with no identified mutation after analyzes done by available technics on hospital laboratories.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood sampling in people with Primary Immuno-Deficiencies, run by Imagine Institute 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 3 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 15 Mar 2018. 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?

Comparison of the 2 sequencing methods (time frame: 2 years). 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 15 Mar 2018.
