Trial summary

The diagnosis of AMR in lung transplant recipients is difficult and often comes too late, because of lack of standardized definition. The diagnosis is nowadays based on an expert multidisciplinary approach involving clinical, histopathological and immunological criteria. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Intérêt Diagnostique et Pronostique de la présence d'Anticorps spécifiques du Donneur Intra-greffon Dans le Rejet Humoral en Transplantation Pulmonaire

The diagnosis of AMR in lung transplant recipients is difficult and often comes too late, because of lack of standardized definition. The diagnosis is nowadays based on an expert multidisciplinary approach involving clinical, histopathological and immunological criteria.

Hypothesis: the presence of intragraft donor specific antibodies (gDSAs) could be used as a new diagnostic tool for AMR in lung transplant recipients Study Objectives: to evaluate, in lung transplant patients with circulating DSAs, the diagnostic value of gDSAs in AMR and to analyze its prognostic value on graft outcome.

Being tested
bronchoscopy.

What participants receive

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

  • bronchoscopy.Procedure or surgery

    gDSAs are studied on cryopreserved biopsies obtained during bronchoscopy. The technique is the one described by Visentin J.

Study groups in NCT03702257
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Bronchial fibroscopyOtherBronchial fibroscopy with trans-bronchial biopsies
Receives: Procedure: bronchoscopy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnosis of AMR

    Sensitivity and specificity of the presence of gDSA for the diagnosis of AMR in lung transplant recipients with circulating DSA, as established by an expert pathologist panel and in accordance with recent international recommendations

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Comparaison in gDSA+ vs gDSAs- patients

    Incidence of graft loss

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing bronchoscopy. in people with Lung Transplant Recipient and Donor Specific Antibodies, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France 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 5 inclusion and 9 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 14 Feb 2022. 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 Sandrine HIRSCHI (+33 3 69 55 11 78, sandrine.hirschi@chru-strasbourg.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Diagnosis of AMR (time frame: 2 years). 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 14 Feb 2022.
