About this study

Official title: Study of INFLAmmasome NLRP3 and PLAtelets Functions During Severe COVID-19 Infection

COVID-19 pandemic is a severe viral sepsis characterized by the occurrence of Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) whose pathophysiology is little described

Read the detailed description

The new Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) epidemic started on December 2019 in China and spreaded in worldwide. The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is responsible of case of severe pneumonia whose the major risk is the development to ARDS. Concerning the pathophysiology, there appear to be hemostasis abnormalities including thrombocytopenia and coagulopathy. In recent studies, this thrombocytopenia is described as a risk factor to develop severe COVID-19 infection. Sepsis is associated with a major systemic inflammatory response with an increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Since their discovery, inflammasomes have an important role during inflammatory response following an aggression. There are intracytoplasmic multiprotein complex activated by cellular stress or infections and is responsible for the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β. Most studies have analysed inflammasomes in nucleated cells, nevertheless, little is known about inflammasomes in platelets.

Thus, the present work aims to study the activation of the platelet NLRP3 inflammasome and the platelet functions and coagulation during a SARS-CoV-2 viral pneumonia according to different levels of severity

What participants receive

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

  • Blood samplesBiological

    Blood samples will be collected in peripheral blood at the admission in intensive care unit or in standard care unit to compare platelet inflammasome NLRP3 and others markers

What is being measured

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

  1. Activation of platelet NLRP3 inflammasome

    Caspase-1 activity analyzed in patients in intensive care unit and in patients in standard care unit.

    Measured: Day 0 During resuscitation (Covid-19 Resuscitation) or hospitalization (Covid-19 No Resuscitation)

  2. Activation of platelet NLRP3 inflammasome

    Labeling NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3)/Adaptor protein apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC) analyzed in patients in intensive care unit and in patients in standard care unit.

    Measured: During Day 0 During resuscitation (Covid-19 Resuscitation) or hospitalization (Covid-19 No Resuscitation)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID-19, run by University Hospital, Toulouse 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 1 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 13 Jul 2023. 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?

Activation of platelet NLRP3 inflammasome (time frame: Day 0 During resuscitation (Covid-19 Resuscitation) or hospitalization (Covid-19 No Resuscitation)). The study lists 2 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 13 Jul 2023.
