About this study

Official title: Prospective Validation of Prediction Algorithms for Preeclampsia in the First-trimester of Pregnancy

This is an international multicentre prospective cohort study to validate the Bayes theorem based algorithms for the screening of pre-eclampsia (PE) in the first-trimester of pregnancy.

Read the detailed description

The investigators have previously constructed Bayes model in the first-trimester which combines maternal characteristics and medical history (Mat-CH) together with mean arterial pressure (MAP), uterine artery pulsatility index (PI), and serum placental growth factor (PlGF) with a plan to assess the predictive performance.

The reference standards will be PE defined according to the International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. The systolic blood pressure should be >140 mm Hg and/or the diastolic blood pressure should be >90 mmHg on at least two occasions four hours apart developing after 20 weeks' gestation in previously normotensive women and there should be proteinuria (>300 mg in 24 hours or two readings of at >2+ on dipstick analysis of midstream or catheter urine specimens if no 24-hour collection is available). In the absence of proteinuria, new onset of any of the following systemic findings: a) thrombocytopaenia (platelet counts <100,000 µL); b) renal insufficiency (creatinine >1.1 mg/dL or 2-fold increase in creatinine in the absence of underlying renal disease); c) abnormal liver function (ie, hepatic transaminase levels twice normal); d) pulmonary oedema; or e) cerebral or visual symptoms. Preterm-PE is PE that requires delivery before 37 weeks' gestation. If a participant fulfills the criteria for PE by one definition and not the other she will be considered to have developed PE.

What is being measured

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

  1. The false positive and true positive frequencies for screening for PE using the Bayes theorem based methods

    Measured: At delivery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The false positive and true positive frequencies for screening of delivery of all-Small for Gestational Age (SGA) neonates and preterm-SGA neonates (delivery before 37 weeks), with or without PE

    Measured: At delivery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pre-Eclampsia, run by Chiu Yee Liona Poon at 14 sites in 7 countries.

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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jan 2020. 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 Japan, China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand and 2 more countries. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The false positive and true positive frequencies for screening for PE using the Bayes theorem based methods (time frame: At delivery). 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 NCT03554681, which also lists 15 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 2 Jan 2020.
