About this study

Official title: A Diagnostic Test to Develop an AECOPD Identification Tool Through Characteristic Variables Extracted From Diagnosed AECOPD Patients

This study is an observational, multi-center and cross sectional study,to develop an identification tool on purpose of differentiating COPD exacerbation from patients with respiratory symptoms in community hospitals of China.

Read the detailed description

This is an observational, multi-center and cross-sectional study to develop an AECOPD identification tool. Estimated totally 7 tertiary hospitals with experts in respiratory area will be involved as the study sites. These study sites will cover the regions of China (Eastern, Southern, Northern, Central, Western and Northeastern region), to be representative for the patient features all over the country. The patients will be enrolled in a "consecutive" way, which is, the investigators will recruit the patients who are eligible and consented to participate in this study without personal tendency.

For the enrolled patients, a face to face visit between investigator and patient will be arranged. The evaluation for the symptoms and signs will be performed and the relevant data will be collected on the visit. In addition, other relevant tests (e.g. oxygen saturation, blood test, CAT, etc) and data (demographic, medical history, etc) will be collected on this visit.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Disease type 2-1)Patients with Mild/moderate AECOPD (n=60)
Disease type 2-2)Patients with Severe AECOPD( n=60)
Disease type 3Non-COPD Patients with high risk factors (n=90)

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity(Sen) & Specificity(Spe)

    Each candidate factors will be tested and weighed. 6-8 factors are estimated to be identified and modelled to form AECOPD identification scale. The validity and efficacy of AECOPD identification tools will be assessed by internal verification.

    Measured: Dec2017--Mar2020

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Exacerbations of COPD, run by AstraZeneca at 7 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 12 inclusion and 6 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 22 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 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?

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?

Sensitivity(Sen) & Specificity(Spe) (time frame: Dec2017--Mar2020). 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 22 Apr 2022.
