About this study

Official title: Exercise Capacity of Patients with Dermatomyosisthe Role of Muscle Mitochondria and Reactive Oxygen Species

Dermatomyositis (DM) patients experience muscle weakness and low aerobic capacities, which are associated with poor health status and increased mortality. The origin of this muscle impairment remains unknown.

The investigators hypothesize that mitochondria functioning is impaired in DM muscle and links with exercise capacities.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in the capacity of muscle fibers to consume oxygen in the muscle of patients i) with DM, ii) with other inflammatory myopathy, iii) without neuromuscular disease.

    This difference in mitochondrial breathing capacity in the muscle will be achieved by: Muscle biopsy

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing exploration in people with Dermatomyositis, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France 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 7 inclusion and 10 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2024. 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 was stopped early (reason given: problèmes de recrutement). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Difference in the capacity of muscle fibers to consume oxygen in the muscle of patients i) with DM, ii) with other inflammatory myopathy, iii) without neuromuscular disease. (time frame: Baseline). 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 19 Sep 2024.
