Trial summary

Liver transplantation (LT) has been proposed as a curative treatment in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) with severe hepatic involvement. The investigating team provides a long-term evaluation of graft status after LT for HHT with a focus on the risk of recurrence. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Recurrence of Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) After Liver Transplantation: Clinical Implications and Physiopathological Insights.

Liver transplantation (LT) has been proposed as a curative treatment in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) with severe hepatic involvement. The investigating team provides a long-term evaluation of graft status after LT for HHT with a focus on the risk of recurrence. The present study included all patients prospectively followed up after LT for HHT in the Lyon Liver Transplant Unit from 1993 to 2010 with a survival of more than 1 year.

Being tested
Data collection from standard follow-up after liver transplant
Medical subject headings
Telangiectasia, Hereditary Hemorrhagic

What participants receive

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

  • Data collection from standard follow-up after liver transplantOther

    All patients underwent regular follow-up every 6 to 12 months after the first year post-liver transplant (LT). Complete laboratory investigations were performed at each visit. Doppler ultrasonography was performed every 1 to 3 years after LT. Computed tomography (CT) scan and/ or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed at 1, 5, 10, 15, and 20 years after LT, or when clinically indicated. All available radiological material was reviewed. Cardiac evaluation was performed regularly in patients who received transplant for cardiac failure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia and Liver Transplant, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 8 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Change in graft status after liver transplant for Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) (risk of recurrence) (time frame: Every 6 months after transplantation up to 5 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 8 May 2019.
