Trial summary

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic disease due to a mutation in one of the genes encoding either type I collagen or a protein involved in its synthesis. This leads to bone fragility with fractures and deformities. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Study of Osteogenesis Imperfecta Tendon and Ligament: Retrospective and Prospective Assessment.

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic disease due to a mutation in one of the genes encoding either type I collagen or a protein involved in its synthesis. This leads to bone fragility with fractures and deformities. However, other tissues rich in type I collagen can also be affected, such as teeth or vessel walls.

In the literature, several case reports describe tendon ruptures in OI patients, but no original study has really addressed this issue, which is likely to impact the quality of life through a reduction in mobility and pain.

Recent work carried out by the investigators shows an alteration of the osteotendinous unit in the osteogenesis imperfecta mouse (oim), a validated model of the most severe form of OI. Consequently, the project aims to study the damage of tendon and ligament in patients suffering from osteogenesis imperfecta.

Read the detailed description

This project aims to study the damage of tendon and ligament in a cohort of patients suffering from osteogenesis imperfecta. The data collected will be put into perspective with those of our first experimental work on mice. They will also make it possible to complete the specific care of these patients. Indeed, during the anamnesis, particular attention will be paid to the description of tendon-ligament pain in order to propose the most effective treatment for this kind of disorder, mainly in physiotherapy. Prevention work will surely be necessary with patients and caregivers.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • study tendon damage in osteogenesis imperfecta patientsOther

    • To identify and characterize alterations of tendons and ligaments in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and to improve clinical management of the disease.
    • To analyze interactions of different parameters, such as laxity or administration of bisphosphonates, on the evolution of the disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. Tendon stiffness

    Triceps suralis tendon, from zero to infinity, expressed in Newton/mm², a high value indicates a high stiffness

    Measured: Throughout the entire study, approximately during 22 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Grip strength test

    Dynamometer

    Measured: Throughout the entire study, approximately during 22 months

  2. Kinesiophobia

    Tampa questionnaire

    Measured: Throughout the entire study, approximately during 22 months

  3. Mobility : walking test

    Timed-up and go (if walking is possible for the patient)

    Measured: Throughout the entire study, approximately during 22 months

  4. Quality of life for children

    Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory

    Measured: Throughout the entire study, approximately during 22 months

  5. Quality of life for adults

    Medical Outcomes Study 36-item Short-Form Health Survey

    Measured: Throughout the entire study, approximately during 22 months

  6. Pain localization and intensity for children

    face scale

    Measured: Throughout the entire study, approximately during 22 months

  7. Pain localization and intensity for adults

    visual analogue scale

    Measured: Throughout the entire study, approximately during 22 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteogenesis Imperfecta, run by Université Catholique de Louvain at 1 site in Belgium.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Oct 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 Belgium. 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 Catherine Behets (+3227645245, catherine.behets@uclouvain.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Tendon stiffness (time frame: Throughout the entire study, approximately during 22 months). 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 3 Oct 2023.
