About this study

Official title: Biological Collection of Renal Cells for the Functional Study of the ABCC6 Transporter on iPS-derived Hepatocytes and Renal Cells

Our objective is to obtain human induced pluripotent stem cells from urine samples of PXE patients for further proteomic and metabolomic studies and treatment screening.

Read the detailed description

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a genetic multysystem disorder with cutaneous, ophtalmological and cardiovascular involvement.

PXE is associated with mutations of ABCC6 gene coding for the membrane transporter ABCC6 protein. This transporter is normally expressed in hepatocytes and epithelial cells of renal proximal convoluted tubules.

Thus, PXE could be regarded as a metabolic disease of hepatic and renal origin, with clinical and biological involvement/consequences for remote organs.

The substance transported by ABCC6 protein being still unknown, ethiological PXE treatment does not exist yet. However, ABCC6 deficiency is associated with low level of blood PPi (pyrophosphate), which is natural inhibitor of calcium-phosphate deposition.

The aim of the project is to obtain the renal cells derived from PXE patients for their further usage in proteomic and metabolomic studies, as well as for screening of treatment modalities aimed to correct ABCC6 functional deficiency.

What is being measured

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

  1. Urine collection

    Three urine samples in each PXE in-patient consequences of the functional deficiency of the ABCC6 transporter involved in the pathophysiology of PXE

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Isolation and culture of renal cells

    According to the routine procedure of our lab

    Measured: 8 weeks

  2. Impact of ABCC6 mutations on renal cell functions

    Proteomic and metabolomic and RNAseq approaches

    Measured: 3 months

  3. High throughput screening of drugs to restore ABCC6 function in PXE patients renal cells

    Evaluation of PPi release and other relevant readouts

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing urine collection in people with Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum, run by University Hospital, Angers.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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 6 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Urine collection (time frame: 24 hours). 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 NCT03364504, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 6 Dec 2017.
