Trial summary

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a frequent disease, mainly linked to tobacco smoking leading to chronic respiratory failure. It is characterized by an inflammatory spate with modification of protease-antiprotease and oxidant-antioxydant balances. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Marqueurs Biologiques Des Bronchopneumopathies Chroniques Obstructives Professionnelles

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a frequent disease, mainly linked to tobacco smoking leading to chronic respiratory failure. It is characterized by an inflammatory spate with modification of protease-antiprotease and oxidant-antioxydant balances. Local modifications are associated with systemic changes. Many occupational factors have been associated with an excess of COPD in epidemiological studies, however without identification of any specific clinical or biological phenotype.

Pathophysiological pathways involved in COPD might be different according to etiologic agents. Therefore, it is important to focus research on blood biomarkers associated with some well-characterized occupational COPD.

The objectives of MB2PROF project are:

  1. To build the first multicentric cohort of cases of occupational COPD, with collection of plasma and DNA samples,
  2. To study the evolution of clinical and lung function parameters of occupational COPD in comparison with non occupational COPD during a follow-up study,
  3. To identify biological phenotypes of COPD associated to a given etiological agent.

The methodology includes:

  1. The constitution of a cohort with a clinical and biological follow-up during 5 years. Subjects will be recruited in 7 occupational diseases departments, with the collaboration of Pneumology departments. Four groups of males subjects will be recruited (G1 : occupational COPD (6 groups of 60 subjects, corresponding to 6 groups of occupational agents) ; G2 : non occupational COPD (n = 60) ; G3 : subjects with similar occupational exposure to G1 subjects but without COPD (6 groups of 60 subjects) ; G4 : subjects free of occupational exposure and of COPD (n = 60)), paired on tobacco-smoking and age. For each subject, information on clinical data, lung function parameters, occupation history and blood samples will be collected.
  2. The identification of biomarkers, using proteomic and genomic approaches according to subgroups (with different etiologies) of occupational COPD,
  3. The study of molecular pathways identified in these subgroups, with in vitro and in vivo studies The MB2PROF project is an original and ambitious multidisciplinary and translational project. The constitution of well-characterized COPD cases cohort should allow the identification of biomarkers and molecular pathways associated with some subgroup of subjects, and improve the knowledge of mechanisms involved.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Copd, run by Centre Hospitalier Intercommunal Creteil 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 30 Aug 2017. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

C Protein Reactive (time frame: at year 1). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 30 Aug 2017.
