Trial summary

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening condition that causes high mortality (41% to 58%). Previous studies have reported that biomarkers can facilitate phenotypic diagnosis of ARDS, enabling precision treatment of ARDS. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Explore Potential Plasma and BALF Immunometabolic and Lipidomic Biomarkers for Identifying the Endotypes in Patients With ARDS

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening condition that causes high mortality (41% to 58%). Previous studies have reported that biomarkers can facilitate phenotypic diagnosis of ARDS, enabling precision treatment of ARDS. Although there were many studies that found some potential therapeutic targets for ARDS, no pharmacotherapies have been validated to treat ARDS. The development of biomarkers to predict the prognosis and monitor the response to treatment would be of interest for selecting patients for specific therapeutic trials. Many recent studies have shown that immune metabolic changes are involved in the pathogenesis of ARDS and may become a new therapeutic target for them. We aimed to identify a panel of immunometabolic and lipidomic biomarkers derived from blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) which may help differentiate the ARDS endotypes.

PROTOCOL OUTLINE:

This is an observational study. The blood and BALF samples will be collected from patients with ARDS for exosome extraction and transcriptome and metabolomic analysis.

Exosome characterization and differential genes and metabolites will be identified.

Being tested
Integrated Transcriptomics, Metabolomics, and Lipidomics Profiling
Keywords

What is being measured

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

  1. Identification of ARDS Endotypes

    Blood samples will be collected on day 1, 3, 5,7 since ARDS diagnosis is made (day 0) and BALF samples will be collected on day 1 and day 7. Blood samples are used to extract PBMC and BALF samples are used to extract alveolar macrophage. Afterwards, PBMC and alveolar macrophage are saved for further transcriptomic and metabomic analysis. At the same time, clinical and biological date are collected to identify subgroups of patients that might share mortality risk, clinical course, and/or treatment responsiveness. At last, the relationship between transcriptomic and metabomic signature of PBMC and alveolar macrophage and the clinical phenotypes are analyzed to determine ARDS endotypes.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Compare the PBMC and alveolar macrophage derived exosome levels between patients with ARDS and without ARDS

    Plasma and BLAF supernatant are used for exosome extraction

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Correlation of Endotypes with published ARDS specific Biomarkers

    Correlate the endotypes with published markers of hyperinflammatory, microvascular-injury predominant, and distal lung epithelial cell-predominant injury in ARDS

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Correlation of Endotypes with Intensive care unit-free days

    Intensive care unit-free days are calculated by the number of days in the first 28 days following ICU admission that a patient is alive and not in the intensive care unit.

    Measured: Until 28 days following ICU admission

  4. Correlation of Endotypes with Ventilator-free days

    Ventilator-free days are calculated by the number of days in the first 28 days following ICU admissionthat a patient is alive and not on a ventilator.

    Measured: Until 28 days following ICU admission

  5. Correlation of Endotypes with All-cause mortality

    Measured: Until death or hospital discharge, assessed up to 28 days following ICU admission

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome and Acute Respiratory Failure, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital at 2 sites in China.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yingying Yang, MD (+8618800173833, yangyingying2703@outlook.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Identification of ARDS Endotypes (time frame: 2 years). 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 11 Jul 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
