Trial summary

The study population will be patients with planned double-lung transplant, with preoperative ex-vivo reconditioning procedure. The ex-vivo procedure will be performed for lungs considered as limit to be directly implanted according to the national classification or in case of Maastrich 3 decision. Read more about this study

About this study

The study population will be patients with planned double-lung transplant, with preoperative ex-vivo reconditioning procedure.

The ex-vivo procedure will be performed for lungs considered as limit to be directly implanted according to the national classification or in case of Maastrich 3 decision. They required a rehabilitation procedure like ex-vivo to determine their quality. Once the procedure initiated, the unused remaining liquid will be retrieved for the first gasometry usually performed. This will be the time T1 of sampling.

The unused remaining liquid will be retrieved for the gasometry of end of procedure usually performed, before the graft cooling. This will be the time T2.

The purge liquid of first lung at the declamping of the pulmonary artery will be retrieved at the time of unclamping (time T3 of sampling).

The purge liquid of the second lung at the declamping of the pulmonary artery will be retrieved with the same procedure (time T4 of sampling).

The samples will be analysed with ELISA technique. The endothelial dysfunction will be evaluated with plasma concentration of heparan sulphate, syndecan-1, endothelin-1 and i-NOS.

What participants receive

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

  • Plasma concentration analysis during and after ex-vivo pulmonary reconditioningOther

    The pulmonary endothelial dysfunction will be evaluated with plasma concentration of heparan sulphate, syndecan-1, endothelin-1 and i-NOS.

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between time of cold ischemia and endothelial dysfunction

    Plasma concentration in heparin sulphate, syndecan-1, endothelin-1 and i-NOS

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlation between time of cold ischemia and systemic inflammation

    Plasma concentration in IL-1β, IL-8, IL-10 and TNF-α

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Transplant, run by Hopital Foch 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 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 14 Jul 2020. 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 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?

Correlation between time of cold ischemia and endothelial dysfunction (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03987113, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Jul 2020.
