Trial summary

End-ischemic dual hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (DHOPE) of human donor livers mitigates ischemia-reperfusion injury, resulting in a reduction of post-reperfusion syndrome, early allograft dysfunction and biliary complications, when compared with static cold storage.

About this study

Official title: Prospective Observational Study to Investigate Long-term Outcomes After Prolonged Dual Hypothermic Oxygenated Machine Perfusion of Human Donor Livers (DHOPEPROLONG)

End-ischemic dual hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (DHOPE) of human donor livers mitigates ischemia-reperfusion injury, resulting in a reduction of post-reperfusion syndrome, early allograft dysfunction and biliary complications, when compared with static cold storage. End-ischemic DHOPE can be used to prolong donor liver preservation time for up to 24 hours. According to IDEAL-D (Idea, Development, Exploration, Assessment, Long term study-Framework for Devices), scientific evidence for prolonged DHOPE has currently reached stage 3. Assessment of long-term outcomes after prolonged DHOPE preservation based on real-world data (i.e., IDEAL-D stage 4) is currently still lacking.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to assess long-term outcomes after transplantation of donor livers preserved by prolonged hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (DHOPE-PRO).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Liver Transplantation, run by University Medical Center Groningen at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 1 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 May 2024. 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 Netherlands. 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?

Contact Vincent E de Meijer, MD, PhD (+31503616161, v.e.de.meijer@umcg.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Death-censored graft survival (time frame: Up to 5-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 21 May 2024.
