Trial summary

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare, poorly recognized and underdiagnosed syndrome of excessive immune activation, which is rapidly fatal. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a common trigger of HLH, particularly in Asian individuals. Read more about this study

About this study

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare, poorly recognized and underdiagnosed syndrome of excessive immune activation, which is rapidly fatal. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a common trigger of HLH, particularly in Asian individuals. We aim to analyze metabolomics and cytokine profiles of patients before and after treatment to explore the metabolomic characteristics of EBV-HLH, and search for pathogenic mechanisms and therapeutic targets.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in metabonomics pattern between subgroups

    Compare metabonomics pattern of the survival group with that of the death group, identify potential predictors of outcomes, and establish a survival prediction model in patients with EBV-HLH. Measure metabolite levels.

    Measured: 2 months

  2. Difference in cytokine pattern between subgroups

    Compare metabonomics and cytokine pattern of the survival group with that of the death group, identify potential predictors of outcomes, and establish a survival prediction model in patients with EBV-HLH. Measure cytokine levels.

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytoses and EBV, run by Beijing Friendship Hospital at 1 site 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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jan 2023. 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 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 Zhao Wang, MD (+861083138303, wangzhao@ccmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Difference in metabonomics pattern between subgroups (time frame: 2 months). 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 10 Jan 2023.
