About this study

Official title: Determination of Normal Values of Parameters of Thrombin Generation in Fresh PRP and in PPP in Function of Different Tissue Factor Concentrations

The thrombin generation assay (TGA) is a good tool for measuring clot formation in plasma.TGA using Calibrated Automated Thrombography method, enables the quantification of thrombin concentrations in platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and in platelet-poor plasma (PPP).According to the clinical context, different TF(Tissue Factor) concentrations (1, 5 and 10 pM) can be used to trigger the coagulation cascade.The aim of the study is to determine the normal values of TG (Thrombin Generation) in fresh PRP and in PPP with different TF concentrations.

Read the detailed description

The thrombin generation assay (TGA) is a good tool for measuring clot formation in plasma. TGA using Calibrated Automated Thrombography method, enables the quantification of thrombin concentrations in platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and in platelet-poor plasma (PPP). The thrombin generation (TG) profile varies from patient to patient and depends on the activity of the pro and anti-coagulant factors. The TGA values depend on the analytical conditions such as Tissue Factor (TF) concentration and the plasma analyzed (PRP or PPP). According to the clinical context, different TF concentrations (1, 5 and 10 pM) can be used to trigger the coagulation cascade.

As a consequence, the reference values vary with the analytical conditions but also with the studied population (men or women). The reference values are not provided by the manufacturer and each laboratory has to establish the normal values according to the analytical conditions chosen for the pathology explored (hemorrhagic or thrombotic). Moreover, in PPP, the TG results can be different according to batch reagents. That is the reason why plasma will be frozen for a new determination in case of deviation of the result of the control plasma.

The aim of the study is to determine the normal values of TG in fresh PRP and in PPP with different TF concentrations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy Volunteers, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne 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 2 inclusion and 9 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 1 Dec 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?

Thrombin generation parameter in PRP (Peak : nmol thrombin) (time frame: At inclusion). The study lists 6 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 1 Dec 2023.
