About this study

Official title: A Study of Endocrine Changes and Their Correction in Heart and Lung Transplant Recipients and Donors

The aim of this study is to assess the impact of endocrine changes and their correction on survival and organ function in heart and lung transplant recipients. This study also features an investigation of the hormone levels and hormonal replacement therapy of the donors to study its role in the function of the transplanted hearts and lungs.

Thyroid hormones (TSH, thyroxine, tri-iodothyronine), cortisol and the antidiuretic hormone will be studied.

The former two hormone levels will be defined in the recipients just before transplantation and three days later. In the case of the donors all three hormones will be recorded at the time of the explantation. The investigators would like to record the hormonal replacement therapy in all our patients as well to see it's effect on survival and on the transplanted organ function.

After the transplantation during the hospital stays all the important hemodynamic parameters, laboratory parameters, the result of the medical imagings, the medication, the length of ICU and hospital stay and the complications were recorded.

Recipients will be followed for five years. Organ function will be assessed every three month for a year, after than every six month for further four years. Investigator would like to record the result of the cardiac echocardiography, spirometries, imaging, and complications. Our purpose is to compare these results against the endocrine disorders and the replacement therapy.

What participants receive

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

  • Blood testProcedure or surgery

    Also called transplantation, explantation

    Hormone levels will be measured just before transplantation, and three day after the transplantation. In case of the donors hormone levels will be defined during the explantation.

What is being measured

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

  1. The composite of in-hospital death of any cause

    In-hospital death of any cause

    Measured: Patient will be followed during the hospital stay, an expected average of a month.

  2. Endocrine changes and their correction in heart and lung tranplant recipients

    Five year mortality rate

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Endocrine changes and their correction in heart and lung tranplant donors

    Number of successfully transplanted organs

    Measured: one month

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Endocrine changes and their correction in heart tranplant recipients

    The function of the transplanted heart

    Measured: five years

  2. Endocrine changes and their correction in lung tranplant recipients

    The function of the transplanted lung

    Measured: five years

  3. Evidence of clinically definite postoperative complications

    Complications occuring during five year after the transplantation

    Measured: five years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Endocrine System Diseases and Thyroid Diseases, run by Semmelweis University Heart and Vascular Center at 1 site in Hungary.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jan 2022. 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 Hungary. 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?

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 composite of in-hospital death of any cause (time frame: Patient will be followed during the hospital stay, an expected average of a month.). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 Jan 2022.
