Trial summary

Congenital CMV infection is the leading cause of non-genetic deafness and neurodevelopmental disorders. Its prevalence in France is estimated between 0.3% and 1% of births depending on the study. Congenital infection is symptomatic in 10% of cases with a large clinical spectrum with different degree of severity. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection by Detection of the Virus in the Saliva of Newborns at Particular Risk: A Retrospective Population-based Study Between February 2019 and December 2021 at the Regional Maternity Hospital of Nancy

Congenital CMV infection is the leading cause of non-genetic deafness and neurodevelopmental disorders. Its prevalence in France is estimated between 0.3% and 1% of births depending on the study.

Congenital infection is symptomatic in 10% of cases with a large clinical spectrum with different degree of severity. These sequelae develop progressively and fluctuate, which justifies prolonged follow-up of children for several years, even if they are asymptomatic at birth.

There is yet no treatment with AMM in neonates or pregnant women. In France, screening for congenital CMV infection is widely debated. It remains oriented to certain newborns considered at risk or depending on their symptoms and varies with the practices of each Neonatology or Maternity Hospital.

In the Regional Maternity of Nancy, a new screening protocol for congenital CMV infection was implemented from early 2019.

It is based on screening by non-invasive salivary test (CMV PCR) in newborns at particular risk who are included in a registry open for this screening.

The aim of this research was to assess the relevance of the proposed criteria in the Protocol for defining a population at risk of congenital CMV infection thus qualifying for CMV screening. The secondary endpoints are the modalities of the screening test, the evaluation of each risk factor for infection, and the study of affected patients (symptoms, therapeutic intervention, neurological and auditory outcome).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 1 site in France.

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 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 6 Mar 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 France. 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?

Relevance of the Protocol for defining a population at risk (time frame: baseline). 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 6 Mar 2023.
