About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Respiratory Function in Renal Transplanted Children : a Prospective, Multicenter French Study

Objectives:

While a respiratory abnormality was found in 50% of pediatric renal transplant recipients in a study conducted in Belgium and the Netherlands in 2008, the respiratory status of transplanted children in France remains unknown. The primary objective of this study is to assess the prevalence of respiratory impairment and its characteristics in children with renal transplant. The secondary objective is to study its association with some potential risk factors such as immunosuppressive therapy or humoral immunodeficiency.

Methodology:

This interventional study aims to recruit the 385 children currently being followed by 5 French pediatric renal transplant centers between June 2018 and November 2019. A clinical and functional respiratory assessment will be carried out during the routine annual follow-up of the transplant recipient. Children with clinical signs of concern or abnormal spirometry will be referred to a respiratory specialist. Pharmacokinetic assays of immunosuppressant therapy and the exploration of humoral function will also be performed. The prevalence and type of respiratory abnormalities will be described. Logistic regression will be used to explore the association between potential risk factors and impaired respiratory function.

Expected results:

This study will be the first to evaluate the respiratory status of children with renal transplants in France. The prospective, multi- centered nature of the study, in addition to the large cohort size (which represents two thirds of children with renal transplants in France) will guarantee current, reliable, and representative data for the target population. We will provide new knowledge by precisely characterizing the type of lung injury and looking for potential risk factors. If our study confirms the high prevalence of pulmonary impairment in children with renal transplants, systematic monitoring of respiratory function may be recommended to enable early diagnosis and management. The expected individual and public health benefits would be significant by limiting the appearance of long-term, irreversible sequelae (such as non-cystic-fibrosis bronchiectasis) and improving the quality of life of these patients.

What participants receive

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

  • pulmonary functionOther

    The aim of this study is to assess the respiratory function thanks to pulmonary function tests in renal transplanted children in France.

What is being measured

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

  1. Respiratory alteration

    An alteration of the pulmonary function tests (PFT) values or the presence of chronic respiratory symptoms/treatment (questionnaire)

    Measured: at the inclusion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. risk factors linked to an alteration of the respiratory function

    We will analyse the relation between several exposure variables or the potential risk factors (medical past, medication, infectious diseases,...) and the presence of an alteration of the respiratory function.

    Clinical datas will be gathered thanks to a questionnaire on the medical past and the respiratory state of the child.

    The usual biological measures will be done at the annual check up (exploring immunity, pharmacological dosages, renal function, for example).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing pulmonary function in people with Respiratory Tract Disease and Kidney Transplantation, run by Nantes University Hospital at 5 sites in France.

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 4 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 18 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in France. 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 Alexandra BRUEL (0240083566, alexandra.bruel@chu-nantes.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Respiratory alteration (time frame: at the inclusion). 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 18 Jun 2021.
