About this study

Official title: Développement de Tests Fonctionnels in Vitro à Partir de Cellules Primaires de Patients Atteints de Maladies Monogéniques

The objective of this project is to build a collection of biological samples consisting of fibroblasts and primary keratinocytes from patients with orphan monogenic diseases and to use these cells in the customization of functional tests. The miniaturized tests we are setting up make it possible to distinguish patient cells from control cells. They can be used to test molecules or for the development of diagnostic tests.

As part of the research protocol, the investigating physicians will be able to perform a skin biopsy on their patient included in the study. APTEEUS will isolate fibroblasts and keratinocytes and ensure their preservation. As part of the project, it is planned to preserve the biological samples collected and to preserve the collection after the end of the study. Skin fibroblasts and keratinocytes that are isolated from the biopsy are cells that can be preserved and amplified. They are a material of choice for the functional study of many monogenic diseases.

This study will allow the adaptation of tools dedicated to the functional study of monogenic diseases in order to help in the research and development of new treatments for these diseases, but also to highlight and explain the inter-individual variability of symptoms and responses to treatments, and finally, to help in the development of diagnostic methods.

Patients with orphan monogenic diseases whose genetic defect has been confirmed and for whom the study of the disease can be performed on fibroblasts, keratinocytes or cells derived from them, may be included in the study. Subjects, after information and consent, will undergo a skin biopsy. The sample will be sent directly to the promoter company APTEEUS, which will carry out all in vitro developments. The fibroblasts and keratinocytes will be preserved and will constitute a collection of cells "orphan monogenic diseases". The samples can be reused for new research in the same field.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of the residual enzymatic activity on the isolated fibroblast and or keratinocytes using appropriate methodology.

    The function of the impaired enzyme will be assessed by measuring in vitro the residual enzymatic activity using labeled substrate. Technologies used are based on mass spectrometry. Residual enzymatic activity will be expressed as a percentage of normal controls.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Skin Biopsy in people with Monogenic Disorders, run by Apteeus at 1 site 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 2 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 2 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

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?

Measurement of the residual enzymatic activity on the isolated fibroblast and or keratinocytes using appropriate methodology. (time frame: 6 months). 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 2 Aug 2024.
