Trial summary

Evaluation of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) profile in Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with obstetric and thrombotic complications. Blood sample of the patients were taken for Anti-beta-2-glycoprotein 1(anti-b2GPI), anticardiolipin (aCL) and will be analyzed on Alegria based on ELISA. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical Features and Pattern of Antiphospholipid Antibodies in Patients of Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).

Evaluation of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) profile in Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with obstetric and thrombotic complications.

Blood sample of the patients were taken for Anti-beta-2-glycoprotein 1(anti-b2GPI), anticardiolipin (aCL) and will be analyzed on Alegria based on ELISA.

Read the detailed description

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is characterized by presence of specific antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) with history of thrombosis and/or pregnancy morbidity.

Anti-phospholipid antibodies (aPL) is a comprehensive antibody profile which includes lupus anticoagulant [LA], anticardiolipin antibodies [aCL], and/or anti-β2-glycoprotein-I antibodies [aβ2GPI]). A comprehensive antibody profile is needed for both diagnosis and classification of patients with APS, most significantly for the risk assessment of both pregnancy morbidity and thrombosis.

Double positivity (LA, aβ2GPI or ACL +) and triple positivity (LA, aβ2GPI+, ACL +) may have worse outcome and the patients with double and triple positivity may have recurrent thrombotic events.

Early detection of aPL antibodies may avert patients with many complication associated with SLE as well as from major thrombotic events because the detection of aPL in SLE has been proposed as a predictive and specific tool for the diagnosis of APLS in SLE.

aPL profile in SLE patients with obstetric and thrombotic complications was analyzed, to see the association of different anti phospholipid antibodies with different clinical features of APLS in SLE patients.

    Blood samples were taken and analyzed for APS antibodies

What is being measured

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

  1. aPLS antibodies of any type and number lead to cumulative obstetric and thrombotic complication in patients of SLE.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. B2 GPI is more prevalent in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anti-phospholipid Antibobodies in Patients of SLE Presenting With Thrombosis or Pregnancy Complications, run by Fatima Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 0 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 15 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 Pakistan. 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?

aPLS antibodies of any type and number lead to cumulative obstetric and thrombotic complication in patients of SLE. (time frame: 2 years). 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 15 Jul 2021.
