About this study

Official title: Greifswald Approach to Individualized Medicine (GANI_MED) - Follow-up of Cardiovascular Cohorts

Follow-up of two hospital-based patient cohorts (heart failure, metabolic comorbidities in CVD), recruited at baseline by the GANI_MED-project (Greifswald Approach to Individualized Medicine). Standardized protocols will be used for the assessment of medical history, laboratory biomarkers, and the collection of various biosamples for bio-banking purposes. Comparisons with the general background population will be performed.

Read the detailed description

5-year follow-up of two hospital-based patient cohorts (heart failure, metabolic comorbidities in CVD), recruited at baseline by the GANI_MED-project (Greifswald Approach to Individualized Medicine). Subjects will be comprehensively phenotypes using standardized protocols for the assessment of medical history, laboratory biomarkers, and the collection of various biosamples for bio-banking purposes. A multi-omics based biomarker assessment including genome-wide genotyping, transcriptome, metabolome, and proteome analyses complements the multi-level approach of GANI_MED. Comparisons with the general background population as characterized by the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP) will be performed.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. 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 Marcus Dörr, MD (+49383486 ext. 80500, mdoerr@uni-greifswald.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cardiovascular events (time frame: 1-year follow-ups). 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 NCT02970214, 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 12 Dec 2023.
