About this study

Official title: Clinical Collaborative Research of Whole Genome Sequencing in the Detection of Rare Undiagnosed Genetic Diseases in Children in China

To assess the indications and diagnostic efficiency of whole genome sequencing (WGS) in pediatric patients with unexplained intellectual disability/developmental delay, multiple congenital abnormalities and other rare and undiagnosed diseases

Read the detailed description

This project will recruit 100 rare, undiagnosed pediatric genetic disease families (core families: patients, patients' parents, immediate family members such as brothers and sisters, all of them can be enrolled whether they have disease or not, so generally 3, for a few cases 4 or 5) all over the country. The expert team will review the clinical materials, the molecular team will review the experimental process, and the bioinformatics team will review the chip, the analysis of whole exome sequencing data and screen the samples all over the country;

Whole-genome sequencing of 100 rare, undiagnosed pediatric genetic disease families (Illumina NovaSeq High-throughput Sequencer);

The study will provide preliminarily performance data on the comparison of whole exome data and whole genome data. In addition, it will generate the Chinese Consensus on Clinical Applications of Whole-genome sequencing in the Diagnosis of Birth Defects and Undiagnosed Rare Genetic Diseases in Children based on the statistical analysis of clinical phenotype and genotype association, which could guide the clinical application of pediatrics, laboratory testing and reporting.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of diagnosed families

    Families with rare and undiagnosed pediatric genetic disease will be benefitted by WGS.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Numbers of pathogenic variants in different variation types

    WGS would have the potential to detect different types of genetic alterations, such as structure variations, point mutation, small insertion/deletion, trinucleotide repeat, etc. Some types could not be identified by exome sequencing and chromosomal microarray. The numbers of the pathogenic variants in these types will be calculated to examine the benefit of WGS.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intellectual Disability and Multiple Congenital Anomaly, run by Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine at 14 sites 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 3 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 8 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites 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 Yu Sun, PhD (+86-25-25076466, sunyu@xinhuamed.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of diagnosed families (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT03424772, 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 8 Feb 2018.
