Trial summary

This study aims to better define the target range of ganciclovir trough concentrations by investigating the relationship between ganciclovir concentration and the time to undetectable CMV-DNA load, in preemptive and curative treatments by (val)ganciclovir. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Etude Observationnelle Comparant l'efficacité du GANciclovir en Fonction de l'EXposition Sanguine au médicament

This study aims to better define the target range of ganciclovir trough concentrations by investigating the relationship between ganciclovir concentration and the time to undetectable CMV-DNA load, in preemptive and curative treatments by (val)ganciclovir.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of the study is to determine whether higher concentrations of ganciclovir can reduce the time of negation of the CMV-DNA load.

Secondary objectives are to determine the concentration-toxicity relationship of ganciclovir and the relationship between concentrations of ganciclovir and apparition of CMV gene mutations responsible of drug resistance.

Each week, trough concentrations of ganciclovir are measured, associated with control of CMV-DNA load and all biological analysis currently necessary for the monitoring of the infection.

What participants receive

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

  • Therapeutic Drug MonitoringDrug

    Trough concentration of ganciclovir and viral load measurement at each follow-up visit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to CMV viral load negativity as a function of the median of trough concentrations of ganciclovir

    Duration of patient follow-up for the CMV infection

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Solid Organ Transplantation, run by Rennes University Hospital 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2023. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Kristell COAT (2 99 28 91 91 ext. +33, kristell.coat@chu-rennes.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to CMV viral load negativity as a function of the median of trough concentrations of ganciclovir (time frame: through study completion, an average of 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 12 Apr 2023.
