Trial summary

COVID-19 pandemic with SARS-CoV-2 infection has become a global challenge. Though most cases of COVID-19 are mild, the disease can also be fatal. Patients with liver cirrhosis are more susceptible to damage from SARS-CoV-2 infection considering their immunocompromised status. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical Characteristics of COVID-19 in Patients With Pre-existing Cirrhosis (COVID-Cirrhosis-CHESS2002): A Multicentre Observational Study

COVID-19 pandemic with SARS-CoV-2 infection has become a global challenge. Though most cases of COVID-19 are mild, the disease can also be fatal. Patients with liver cirrhosis are more susceptible to damage from SARS-CoV-2 infection considering their immunocompromised status. The spectrum of disease and factors that influence the disease course in COVID-19 cases with liver cirrhosis are incompletely defined. This muilticentre observational study (COVID-Cirrhosis-CHESS2002) aims to study the clinical characteristics and risk factors associated with specific outcomes in COVID-19 patients with pre-existing liver cirrhosis.

What is being measured

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

  1. All-cause mortality of COVID-19 patients with liver cirrhosis

    7-day, 28-day, 60-day, 180-day and 365-day all-cause mortality of COVID-19 patients with liver cirrhosis

    Measured: From illness onset of COVID-19 to death from any cause, up to 365 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Liver-related mortality of COVID-19 patients with liver cirrhosis

    7-day, 28-day, 60-day, 180-day and 365-day liver-related mortality of COVID-19 patients with liver cirrhosis

    Measured: From illness onset of COVID-19 to death from liver-related cause, up to 365 days

  2. Risk factors associated with specific outcomes of COVID-19 patients with liver cirrhosis

    Risk factors (laboratory findings, imaging findings, etc.) associated with specific outcomes (death, etc.) of COVID-19 patients with liver cirrhosis

    Measured: From hospital admission to death, up to 365 days

  3. Baseline characteristics of COVID-19 patients with liver cirrhosis

    Baseline characteristics (laboratory findings, imaging findings, etc.) of COVID-19 patients with liver cirrhosis

    Measured: 1 Day

An observational study of COVID-19 and Liver Cirrhosis, run by Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery Institute of Gansu Province at 15 sites in China.

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 3 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 24 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in China. 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?

All-cause mortality of COVID-19 patients with liver cirrhosis (time frame: From illness onset of COVID-19 to death from any cause, up to 365 days). 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 NCT04329559, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 24 Feb 2021.
