Trial summary

Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a neuro-respiratory disease characterized by lifethreatening sleep-related hypoventilation involving an alteration of CO2/H+ chemosensitivity. This suggests cortical activity during awakening to maintain breathing. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prevalence of Rest Dyspnea and Impact of Non Invasive Ventilation on Breathing Sensations in Patients With Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome

Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a neuro-respiratory disease characterized by lifethreatening sleep-related hypoventilation involving an alteration of CO2/H+ chemosensitivity. This suggests cortical activity during awakening to maintain breathing. Cortical activity to keep breathing is usually associated with breathing discomfort ; this is the case in healthy subjects under non invasive ventilation (NIV) or with expiratory charge as well as in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. This can suggest that CCHS may be breathless at rest and this discomfort could be reduced by NIV.

The objective is to evaluate dyspnea with a multi dimensional score, MDP, in CCHS patient at rest in every day life and during 1H session of NIV.

The investigators will perform a prospective, including 20 CCHS patients. MDP scores will be measure before and after 1H-non invasive ventilation as well as a visual scale of 100mm in order to evaluate variation of breathing discomfort before/after NIV.

The investigators expect that CCHS patients don't have rest dyspnea but NIV would improve breathing discomfort that would mean they have latent rest dyspnea.

    Measure MDP scores before and after NIV

    Measured: Change in MDP score between baseline and after 1 hour of NIV

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of CCHS and Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome, run by Association pour le Développement et l'Organisation de la Recherche en Pneumologie et sur le Sommeil 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 3 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 12 Jul 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 MARLENE BRET (0698674449, marlene.bret@aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

"Immediate unpleasantness" corresponding to A.1 item of the multidimensional dyspnea profile (time frame: Change in MDP score between baseline and after 1 hour of NIV). 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 Jul 2021.
