Trial summary

There was a worldwide early trend in girls'age for puberty onset. The timing of puberty onset varies greatly among individuals, and much of this variation is modulated by genetic factors. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Polymorphisms in the Kisspeptin/GPR54 Pathway Genes and the Risk of Early Puberty

There was a worldwide early trend in girls'age for puberty onset. The timing of puberty onset varies greatly among individuals, and much of this variation is modulated by genetic factors. This study was designed to explored the association of polymorphisms in KISS1/GPR54 pathway genes and the risk of early puberty in Chinese Han girls.

What is being measured

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

  1. the polymorphism in the KISS1/GPR54 pathway genes

    functional SNP loci of the KISS1/GPR54 pathway genes KISS1, KISSIR, PLCB1, PRKCA, and ITPR1 were selected and detected.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Puberty, Precocious, run by Shenzhen Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jul 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?

the polymorphism in the KISS1/GPR54 pathway genes (time frame: 3 months). 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 NCT04012632, 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 11 Jul 2019.
