About this study

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the biological determinants of sputum rheology variations.

Read the detailed description

Secondarily, this study aims to compare rheology parameters between different chronic airway disease sub-populations.

Medical subject headings
Asthma, Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, Bronchiectasis

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT04081740
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
AsthmaThe patients included in this group will have asthma, as specified in the inclusion criteria.
COPDThe patients included in this group will have COPD, as specified in the inclusion criteria.
BronchiectasisThe patients included in this group will have bronchiectasis, as specified in the inclusion criteria.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of crossover stress (mucus rheology)

    The crossover stress point for each mucus sample will be measured in Pa.

    Measured: Day 0

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Measurement of the storage modulus (mucus rheology)

    The storage modulus point for each mucus sample will be measured in Pa.

    Measured: Day 0

  2. Measurement of the loss modulus (mucus rheology)

    The loss modulus point for each mucus sample will be measured in Pa.

    Measured: Day 0

  3. Measurement of the strain crossover (mucus rheology)

    The strain crossover point for each mucus sample will be measured in Pa.

    Measured: Day 0

  4. Measurement of the loss factor (mucus rheology)

    The loss factor point for each mucus sample will be measured as a tangent to an angle in radians.

    Measured: Day 0

Individual data sharing
Yes: The general goal is to, in as much as possible, make the study data available to interested researchers as well as to provide proof of transparency for the study. Data (and an accompanying data dictionary) will be de-identified and potentially further cleaned or aggregated as the investigators deem necessary to protect participant anonymity. Due to conditions imposed by French law, data will be made available to the public upon request to the study sponsor and fulfilment of French legal requirements.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Asthma and COPD, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 10 inclusion and 12 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 7 Nov 2019. 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?

Measurement of crossover stress (mucus rheology) (time frame: Day 0). 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 NCT04081740, 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 7 Nov 2019.
