About this study

To assess the expression of miRNA in patients with TAA, AAA in aneurysmatic tissue and to compare this expression with the healthy tissue in the same patient.

In the same cohort, to asses the presence of miRNA in plasma and to compare with the control group.

Over the period of three years,to follow subjects in order to assess if the presence of certain miRNAs speeds up or slows down the progression of disease.

In patients with intracranial aneurysms to detect miRNA in plasma especially in patients with familial occurrence.

Read the detailed description

MicroRNAs constitute a recently discovered class of non-coding RNAs that play key roles in the regulation of gene expression. Acting at the post-transcriptional level, MicroRNAs have been shown to be involved in a wide range of biological processes such as cell cycle control, apoptosis and several developmental and physiological processes including stem cell differentiation, hematopoiesis, hypoxia, cardiac and skeletal muscle development. In addition to their important roles in healthy individuals, microRNAs have also been implicated in a number of diseases including a broad range of cancers, cardiovascular and heart disease. Their different expression in aortic tissue in patients with aortic abdominal aneurysm and their association with the progression of the disease were confirmed. They represent the potential target for the treatment of the disease. MiRNA act as biomarkers showing the potential risk of the presence of TAA, AAA and intracranial aneurysm, for the prediction of TAA and AAA progression and for the discovery of new treatment possibilities.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Vascular Aneurysm, run by Na Homolce Hospital at 1 site in Czechia.

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 3 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 19 May 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 Czechia. 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?

The comparison of miRNA in healthy and aneurysmatic tissue (time frame: 2020 at end of trial). 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 19 May 2022.
