About this study

Official title: Prognosis Analysis of Elderly Donor Liver From Donation After Cardiac Death in Liver Transplantation: a Multicenter Clinical Study

Based on the follow-up data of elderly donation after cardiac death(DCD) donor liver transplant recipients from the CLTR, a database and official website for national data gathering. patients who met the enrollment criteria were screened for postoperative complications and survival for statistical analysis to understand the prognosis of patients and analyze the risk factors affecting their prognosis.

Read the detailed description

Since the Chinese organ donation system was developed in 2015, donation has been the only source of organs for transplantation in China. Adult patients (age 18 or older) who underwent LT using grafts from deceased donors between January 1st, 2015, and December 31st, 2018, were retrospectively identified using the CLTR, a database and official website for national data gathering. Based on the follow-up data of elderly DCD donor liver transplant recipients from the CLTR, a database and official website for national data gathering. patients who met the enrollment criteria were screened for postoperative complications and survival for statistical analysis to understand the prognosis of patients and analyze the risk factors affecting their prognosis.

Study groups in NCT05355662
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
OLDsOlder liver donors (OLDs) and recipients were defined as individuals whose donor age was equal to or greater than 60 years. Subjects matching the characteristics of this group were screened from the database according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and preoperative and postoperative characteristics of the corresponding recipients and donors were collected and recorded for subsequent analysis.
Receives: Other: Age
ILDsIdeal or young liver donors (ILDs) and recipients were defined as donors aged 18-40 years. Subjects matching the characteristics of this group were screened from the database according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and preoperative and postoperative characteristics of the corresponding recipients and donors were collected and recorded for subsequent analysis.
Receives: Other: Age
ALDsAverage liver donors (ALDs) and recipients were defined as donor age 40-59 years. Subjects matching the characteristics of this group were screened from the database according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and preoperative and postoperative characteristics of the corresponding recipients and donors were collected and recorded for subsequent analysis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Post-operative survival time

    Postoperative survival time for patients receiving liver transplantation

    Measured: Time from the end of liver transplantation to the patient's death, or the end of follow-up by December 31, 2020. whichever came first, assessed up to 72 months.

  2. Transplanted liver status

    Postoperative Liver Function in Patients Undergoing Liver Transplantation

    Measured: Time from the end of liver transplantation to the patient's death, or the end of follow-up by December 31, 2020. whichever came first, assessed up to 72 months.The functional status of the transplanted liver was recorded during this period.

  3. Recurrence of the primary disease after surgery

    Recurrence of primary disease in patients who underwent liver transplantation after surgery

    Measured: The time period between liver transplantation and the initial examination revealing a recurrence of primary disease, or until the end of follow-up on December 31, 2020.whichever came first, assessed up to 72 months.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Surgery details

    Detailed information such as operation time

    Measured: Intraoperative

  2. Post-operative complications in patients who underwent liver transplantation

    Specific details of all post-operative complications in patients who underwent liver transplantation

    Measured: Time from the end of liver transplantation to the patient's death, or the end of follow-up by December 31, 2020. whichever came first, assessed up to 72 months.During this period, all postoperative complications of the patient will be recorded.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Liver Transplantation and Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by First Affiliated Hospital Xi'an Jiaotong 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 6 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 2 May 2022. 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?

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?

Post-operative survival time (time frame: Time from the end of liver transplantation to the patient's death, or the end of follow-up by December 31, 2020. whichever came first, assessed up to 72 months.). The study lists 3 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 2 May 2022.
