Trial summary

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) may involve a variety of organ systems expressed differently from patient to patient, and so can be difficult to characterize clinically. Patient reported outcomes (PROs), which consist of feedback directly from patients regarding their symptoms without interpretation by a clinician… Read more about this study

  • On a stable SLE treatment regimen consisting of any of the following medications for a period of at least 30 days prior to Screening
  • Corticosteroids (<30 mg prednisone or equivalent per day)
  • Hydroxychloroquine or equivalent anti-malarial
  • Other immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory agents including methotrexate, azathioprine, leflunomide, mycophenolate (including mycophenolate mofetil or sodium), cyclophosphasmide, belimumab, calcineurin inhibitors (e.g. tacrolimus, cyclosporine)

Who cannot join

  • Rapidly progressive neurologic disease
  • Cognitive dysfunction that might interfere with the capacity to use the ePRO device

About this study

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) may involve a variety of organ systems expressed differently from patient to patient, and so can be difficult to characterize clinically. Patient reported outcomes (PROs), which consist of feedback directly from patients regarding their symptoms without interpretation by a clinician, are typically used in SLE to supplement other clinical measures. Standard PROs typically used in SLE include the 36-item short form health survey (SF-36), the functional assessment of chronic illness therapy - fatigue (FACIT-F), and the patient global assessment (PtGA), administered by paper or electronic tablet during the clinic visits. The recent development of electronic mobile device technology, such as the smartphone, has made it possible to collect PRO information away from the clinical site in the subject's environment. This study will assess by measurement equivalence testing whether data collected via a smartphone are comparable to that collected in standard fashion and whether PROs obtained in the subject's environment may be more informative than that collected in the physician's office on paper.

    Validation of phone ePRO

What is being measured

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

  1. ePRO Validation

    To evaluate measurement equivalence between the two PRO data collection modes - original paper mode versus the ePRO application on a handheld mobile phone for the following PRO's: SF-36 HRQoL questionnaire, the FACIT-F fatigue instrument, and the PtGA. The three PROs will be administered on clinic days by both modes: paper and ePRO. Concurrent results will be compared, and percentage similarities calculated.

    Measured: 7 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of SLE and Lupus Erythematosus, Systemic, run by Lupus Research Alliance at 10 sites in 2 countries.

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 8 inclusion and 5 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 7 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in United States, Canada. 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?

ePRO Validation (time frame: 7 months). 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 7 Nov 2023.
