About this study

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex disease whose evaluation in daily practice and clinical research requires consideration of several aspects, in particular disease activity and quality of life.

Health systems are increasingly using Patient Reported Outcome measures (PRO) data to measure different dimensions of the disease and its experience.

In addition, there is a growing number of "e-health" tools for patients. Indeed, the collection of health-related data via an electronic system makes it possible to modernise and facilitate communication between patients and doctors within the framework of medical follow-up and therapeutic education. Nevertheless, very few studies measure the acceptability and effective long-term use of such tools, particularly in the context of SLE.

The Sanoïa patient platform is a digital tool already used in therapeutic areas similar to SLE (discoid lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis), offering a guarantee of safety and a reduced individual cost.

The availability of this health-related quality of life data collection tool via a site and a mobile application adapted to patients with SLE should:

  • Facilitate the collection by patients of their quality of life as part of their routine follow-up (patient access)
  • Limit the impact of patients' clinical profiles on the frequency of the collection of quality of life data
  • Enable internal medicine specialists to systematically use their patients' quality of life data during consultation (physician access).

This study therefore proposes to evaluate this digital platform within the framework of SLE by measuring the distribution of access by physicians according to the data reported by patients and according to the characteristics of the facilities where the subjects were recruited for the study. These data will allow us to evaluate the influence of factors extrinsic to patients on the adoption of the tool. This area has been very poorly evaluated in the few studies that have focused on the adoption of such tools.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lupus, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon 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 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Oct 2023. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: lack of support from doctors and patients). 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?

utilization rate of online patient account (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 24 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 Oct 2023.
