Trial summary

Currently about 90 cases of infection in children are reported every year in pediatric intensive care, a disease considered to be the main cause of hospitalization of children. 16% of invasive pneumococcal infections are linked to a genetic abnormality in immunity. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Systematic Screening for Primary Immunodeficiencies in Patients Hospitalized for Severe Infections in Intensive Care : DIPREA

Currently about 90 cases of infection in children are reported every year in pediatric intensive care, a disease considered to be the main cause of hospitalization of children. 16% of invasive pneumococcal infections are linked to a genetic abnormality in immunity. Herpetic encephalitis has become a model of genetic infectious disease, with new mutations identified in the TLR3 pathway. Severe infections are no longer the result of chance and can be the way to reveal a primary immune deficiency. In this context, the investigators propose to evaluate the incidence of hereditary immune deficiency after a systematic immunological screening in children admitted for a severe infection in pediatric intensive care unit (ICU).

Read the detailed description

Severe infection requiring admission in intensive care unit (ICU) are not so rare. A retrospective pilot study conducted at Montpellier University Hospital Center (UHC) between 2013 and 2015 showed that 19.7% of the pediatric ICU admissions were related to a severe infection. An isolated severe infectious episode could be related to a hereditary immune deficiency (HID), even though there are no history of recurrent clinical signs and biological stigmata. For example, Gaschignard and colleagues considered that 16% of the invasive pneumococcal infections are related to a genetic defect of immunity (doi: 10.1093/cid/ciu274). Growing evidence has shown that severe infectious diseases occurring in childhood are attributed to inborn errors of immunity (doi: 10.1073/pnas.1521651112). While the nosology of severe infections has strong links to inherited immune deficiency that are rare diseases affecting less than 1 birth / 5000, there are no prospective studies that assessed the incidence of primary immune deficiencies in children who presented a severe infection.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Primary Immunodeficiency, 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 5 inclusion and 6 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 12 Oct 2021. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Eric JEZIORSKI (04 67 33 57 98 ext. 33, e-jeziorski@chu-montpellier.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Immunological abnormalities (time frame: 1 day). 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 12 Oct 2021.
