Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 16 to 60 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child, Adult

Study population: Study population will be classified into two group: 1. SLE patients group: Confirmed SLE patients diagnosed and fulfilled the SLE classification criteria according to the 2019 ACR/EULAR classification criteria for SLE (Aringer et al., 2019). 2. Control group: Healthy age and sex matched subjects. Then SLE group I patients will be subdivided according to the disease activity to three subgroups: I. Group A: SLE cases in remission II. Group B: SLE cases in activity, but no internal organ involvement (i.e. only mucocutaneus and/or musculoskeletal involvement). III. Group C: SLE cases in activity, and with internal organ involvement (renal, neuropsychiatric, hematological or cardiopulmonary).

Who may be able to join

  • Confirmed SLE patients diagnosed and fulfilled the SLE classification criteria according to the 2019 ACR/EULAR classification criteria for SLE (Aringer et al., 2019)
  • Willing and agreed to be included in the study.

Who cannot join

  • Childhood SLE.
  • SLE-patients will refuse to consent to this study.
  • Other autoimmune diseases.
  • Known or suspected malignancies, especially B cell lymphoma.

About this study

Official title: Study of CD184 in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

The objective of this study is to estimate the possible role of CD184 in the pathogenesis of SLE; comparing its level among SLE cases to healthy controls.

Read the detailed description

Detection of CXCR4 (CD184) expression on CD19+ B cells by flow cytometry in patients of SLE, comparing its level in the development of lupus activity and pathogenic process of SLE internal organ involvement/ mucocutaneus and/or musculoskeletal involvement. Identify this correlation will be useful for clarifying other accessory factors to improve the diagnosis, better treatment strategy, follow up as well as prognosis for these patients

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT04799730
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
SLE cases in remissionaccording to SLE Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) inactive disease will be considered as SLEDAI <5
SLE cases in activityaccording to SLE Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) Active disease will be defined as SLEDAI ≥ 5
Control groupHealthy age and sex matched subjects.

What is being measured

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

  1. changes in the expression of CD184(CXCR4) expression in circulating B cells

    Flow cytometry analysis of chemokine receptor (CXCR4):Human peripheral-blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) labeling with CXCR4 antibody will be performed in the same day after taking blood samples and subsequent measurement of the CXCR4 mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) by flow cytometry. MFI of the anti-chemokine receptor (CXCR4) staining will be calculated according to statistical thresholds set in reference to staining with negative control antibodies. The patient's CXCR4 on CD19+ B cells expression or mean MFI will be further compared to the MFI of the simultaneously performed age-matched controls samples and other subgroups of SLE patients.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, run by Sohag University.

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 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 16 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Asmaa A Ibrahim, Master (01032138809, smaibrahim2019@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

changes in the expression of CD184(CXCR4) expression in circulating B cells (time frame: 6 months). 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 16 Mar 2021.
