About this study

Official title: Omics-based Precision Medicine of Epilepsy Being Entrusted by Key Research Project of the Ministry of Science and Technology of China

Epilepsy is a major disease of the nervous system (WHO, 2015), as well as the second most common neural disease. It has been recorded that there have been 65 million epilepsy patients all over the world, more than 10 million in China, resulted in high morbidity, high mortality, heavy social and social psychological burden. Due to complex etiology, which genetic playing a large part for 70%-80%, easy to recurrent, as well as various seizure types, a great heterogeneity in clinical manifestation, epilepsy is difficult to treat in general, at least 33% patients. At present, It's still a big challenge in early warning, choice of treatment, efficacy and severe adverse reaction rate, prognosis assessment. Lack of precise diagnosis based genetic and molecular bio-markers for treatment are the main key points. Recently, clinical phenotype classifications of epilepsy have been refined, the exist researches had made a progress in gene mutation mechanism and targeted therapy, which pushed epilepsy being another disease could be precise treated after tumor. It's sure to provide a breakthrough for another neural diseases if epilepsy precise treatment project are successful.

Research projects:

Part 1: Based on already existed large samples of epilepsy clinical cases, choose 2,0000 non-acquired epilepsy patients for clinical general phenotype and middle phenotype(EEG and MRI) data collection to further multi-dimensional standardization measure and evaluate. Through metabolic detection to define micro-phenotype. Establish a standardized clinical and biological samples database.

Part 2: By NGS technology to sequence for all cases, including family members, then require genotype. To test brain tissue DNA somatic mutation, which MRI negative and had an operation. To verify the newly discovered pathogenic candidate genes and carry on functional studies. Finally, to draw epileptic genetic mutations mapping in Chinese people.

Part 3: Integrated clinical and genetic epilepsy phenotypic data, combined with neural EEG and image bitmap data points for bio-markers analysis, included early warning, classification of diagnosis, curative effect prediction and epilepsy con-morbidity disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Epilepsy Idiopathic and Clinical Disease and/or Syndrome, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 Nov 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 China. 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 Wang yi, Dr (+8613564766228, yiwang@shmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The important bio-markers for the efficient therapy and prognosis (time frame: 2017.02-2018.07). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03358459, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Nov 2017.
