Trial summary

Fetal and postnatal growth is finely regulated by genetic, epigenetic and environmental mechanisms. Parental imprinting is a regulatory mechanism that allows monoallelic expression of certain genes from a single parental allele through differential DNA methylation. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Developing Derived Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells From Blood as a Model for the Study to Understand Imprinted Disorders

Fetal and postnatal growth is finely regulated by genetic, epigenetic and environmental mechanisms. Parental imprinting is a regulatory mechanism that allows monoallelic expression of certain genes from a single parental allele through differential DNA methylation. Imprinted genes play a very important role in the control of fetal and postnatal growth. The pathophysiological mechanisms of these epimutations are largely unknown.

Studying the consequences of these epimutations on the molecular signature of the imprinted gene network in these patients would provide a better understanding of the epigenetic mechanisms regulating fetal growth. As these genes are weakly expressed in fibroblasts, these studies will be carried out on pluripotent stem cells or IPSCs (Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells).

What is being measured

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

  1. The objective of the study is to understand the consequences of epimutations found

    The objective of the study is to understand the consequences of epimutations found at 11p15 or 14q32 in these three syndromes (SRS, BWS and TS) on the network of genes subject to parental imprinting, in order to progress in the understanding of the mechanisms governing the epigenetic regulation of fetal growth.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells, run by Institute of Cardiometabolism and Nutrition, France 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 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Apr 2022. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

The objective of the study is to understand the consequences of epimutations found (time frame: 1 day). 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 28 Apr 2022.
