About this study

Official title: Screening Microorganism of Cryptogenic Mechanical Pneumonia Through NGS to Lung Tissue Fluid

The etiology of cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP)was not clear, but previous studies have shown that in some patients, some pathogen could be detected in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and may be one of the causes of COP. This study aimed to screen the pathogenic microorganisms in BALF and lung puncture fluid of the patients with COP through the next-generation sequencing to further clarify the correlation between the incidence of COP and pathogenic microorganisms.

Read the detailed description

The cause of cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) was unknown, but studies had shown that certain bacteria, viruses, or specific pathogens could be detected in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in some patients, and these pathogenic microorganisms may be the cause of COP. Specimens were obtained by conventional methods (sputum, blood, BALF or lung puncture fluid) for microbiological detection. Due to the influence of the quality of acquired specimens, specimen preservation and transportation which were influenced by external factors, many patients did not get good test results, which affected the diagnosis and subsequent treatment of patients. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) which could determine hundreds of thousands to millions of DNA molecules in parallel at one time, and efficiently sequence or fragment of pathogenic microorganisms. NGS had greatly improved the detection rate of pathogenic microorganisms. This study aimed to screen pathogenic microorganisms in BALF and lung puncture fluid of COP patients by NGS, and further clarify the correlation between occurrence of COP and pathogenic microorganisms.

What participants receive

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

  • Next-generation sequencingDiagnostic test

    The patient who may be diagnosed with cryptogenic organizing pneumonia will be detected through next-generation sequencing.

What is being measured

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

  1. The percentage of microorganisms positive for cryptogenic organizing pneumonia detected by NGS

    The patients with cryptogenic organizing pneumonia will be detected through electronic bronchoscopy and lung puncture. The sample will be examinated through NGS.

    Measured: From 1 Dec 2019 to 1 Dec 2024

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cryptogenic Organizing Pneumonia and Idiopathic Interstitial Pneumonias, run by Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital, Shanghai, China at 2 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 1 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Jin-fu XU, M.D (8621-65115006, jfxucn@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The percentage of microorganisms positive for cryptogenic organizing pneumonia detected by NGS (time frame: From 1 Dec 2019 to 1 Dec 2024). 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 1 Sep 2020.
