Trial summary

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a key role in cell-to-cell communication. They are small vesicles that contain rich molecular cargo. Recently, they have been proposed as biomarkers for clinical diagnostics. EVs include three classes: small EVs (exosomes), large EVs (microparticles), and apoptotic bodies.

About this study

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a key role in cell-to-cell communication. They are small vesicles that contain rich molecular cargo. Recently, they have been proposed as biomarkers for clinical diagnostics. EVs include three classes: small EVs (exosomes), large EVs (microparticles), and apoptotic bodies. Platelet-derived EVs (PEVs) are the most abundant class in human blood and can actively participate in numerous physiological and pathological processes. The information about the role of platelet exosomes in cardiovascular disease and the effect of antiplatelet agents on their release and content is very limited.

Read the detailed description

This study is a multicentre, observational. We plan to enrol 54 subjects from Centro Cardiologico Monzino IRCCS, and 121 buffy coat related to 121 subjects from Centro Trasfusionale Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico. biographical and anthropomorphic data will be recorded, a fasting blood venous sample (from ante-cubital vein) will be collected for the haematochemical analyses and for research samples.

What is being measured

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

  1. Characterization of exosomes released by activated platelet by Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) and proteoma analysis

    Measured: 36 month

  2. Characterization of exosomes released by activated platelet and exposed to platelet inhibitors by NTA and proteoma analysis

    Measured: 36 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Platelet exosome profile emerged by NTA and proteoma analysis will be related with the "biographical" and "anthropometric" data of the subjects.

    Measured: 40 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Platelet Thrombus, run by Centro Cardiologico Monzino at 1 site in Italy.

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 14 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 12 Mar 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 Italy. 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 Silvia S Barbieri, PhD (0258002021, silvia.barbieri@ccfm.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Characterization of exosomes released by activated platelet by Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) and proteoma analysis (time frame: 36 month). 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 12 Mar 2024.
