Trial summary

Sepsis represents a serious public health issue characterized by a complex inflammatory response. In addition to their hemostatic role, platelets display inflammatory functions by secreting a variety of immunomodulatory factors and interacting with circulating immune cells.

About this study

Sepsis represents a serious public health issue characterized by a complex inflammatory response. In addition to their hemostatic role, platelets display inflammatory functions by secreting a variety of immunomodulatory factors and interacting with circulating immune cells. The investigators postulate that, in severe sepsis, platelets become activated and release amounts of different soluble inflammatory molecules that contribute to sepsis-associated inflammation. First, the investigators propose to assess whether severe sepsis impairs the ability of platelets to release soluble CD40L (sCD40L), an powerful platelet-derived immunomodulatory molecule, in ICU patients with S. aureus documented infection, ICU patients with documented infection involving other bacterial species, compared to ICU patients with inflammation of noninfectious origin and healthy blood donors. Then, the investigators wish to assess whether the bacterial species affects the release of platelet sCD40L and by an extensive screening of platelet soluble factors, the investigators propose to set up profiles of inflammatory molecules associated with the type of infection. Finally, the investigators will analyze platelets' activation state and their association with circulating immune, according to the type of infection. Therefore, this project is expected to assess to which extent the platelet inflammatory function is super-activated in severe sepsis and to identify new platelet-related biomarkers of sepsis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of proportion of CD40L between the 3 groups

    Comparison of proportion of CD40L in Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) between the 3 groups by proteomics technique Luminex® stimulated by Thrombin Receptor Activator Peptide (TRAP)-6).

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Comparison of proportion of CD40L between patients with severe sepsis and blood donor voluntary

    Comparison of proportion of CD40L in Platelet poor plasma (PPP) between patients with severe sepsis and blood donor voluntary by proteomics technique Luminex® stimulated by Thrombin Receptor Activator Peptide (TRAP)-6).

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Comparison of proportion of CD40Lbetween patients with severe sepsis and patients with inflammatory syndrome without sepsis

    Comparison of proportion of CD40L in Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) between patients with severe sepsis and patients with inflammatory syndrome without sepsis by proteomics technique Luminex® stimulated by Thrombin Receptor Activator Peptide (TRAP)-6).

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Proportion of CD40L

    Proportion of CD40L of patients with severe sepsis according to the different infection (S. aureus , S. pneumoniae, E. coli)

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Severe Sepsis, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne 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 4 inclusion and 9 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 10 Jul 2020. 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 proportion of CD40L between the 3 groups (time frame: 1 year). 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 10 Jul 2020.
