About this study

Official title: Association of Lung Bacteriobiota With Intensive Care Unit Mortality in ARDS Patients: MicroFlu Study

Influenza is a potentially lethal disease still responsible for thousands excess deaths both in Europe and the United States. Despite the use of neuraminidase inhibitors, its treatment is mostly based on symptomatic care. Lung microbiota has been shown to be involved in the immunity against influenza and is correlated with lung inflammation in numerous chronic respiratory diseases. We therefore aim to analyse the correlation between lung bacteriobiota and influenza ICU mortality

Read the detailed description

Influenza is a viral disease which is still responsible for thousands of excess deaths par year both in Europe and in the US. Despite the use of neuraminidase inhibitors, its treatment is mostly based on symptomatic care. As lung microbiota is correlated with lung inflammation in numerous chronic respiratory diseases, we hypothesize that lung microbiota would be correlated with influenza outcomes. In a pilot study, we found that lung bacteriobiota but not mycobiota is associated with influenza ICU mortality. We therefore aim to confirm this correlation between lung bacteriobiota and influenza mortality.

What is being measured

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

  1. Lung bacteriobiota and ICU mortality

    Comparison of lung bacteriobiota alpha diversity between influenza ICU survivors and non-survivors

    Measured: at admission

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Lung bacteriobiota and ICU mortality

    Analysis of lung bacteriobiota beta diversity between influenza ICU survivors and non-survivors

    Measured: at admission

  2. Lung bacteriobiota and 7-day mortality

    Analysis of lung bacteriobiota beta diversity between influenza 7-day survivors and non-survivors

    Measured: at admission

  3. Bacteria and ICU mortality

    Association of bacteria with influenza ICU mortality by LefSe method

    Measured: at admission

  4. Bacteria and 7-day mortality

    Association of bacteria with influenza 7-day mortality by LefSe method

    Measured: at admission

  5. ICU mortality based on Shannon index

    Comparison of ICU mortality based on a threshold of 1.79 for Shannon Index

    Measured: at admission

  6. Lung bacteriobiota and 7-day mortality

    Comparison of lung bacteriobiota alpha diversity between influenza 7-day survivors and non-survivors

    Measured: at admission

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Influenza and Critical Illness, run by University of Bordeaux at 3 sites 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 2 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 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 3 sites 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lung bacteriobiota and ICU mortality (time frame: at admission). 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 1 Nov 2019.
