Trial summary

Chronic inflammation in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may be the result of dysregulation of cytokine production (due to insulin resistance, excess visceral fat and hyperandrogenemia), i.e., overproduction of pro-inflammatory factors (e.g. TNF, IL-1, IL-6) in relation to anti-inflammatory ones (IL-10).

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Activity of Chronic Inflammation and Its Impact on Metabolic and Hormonal Parameters in Various PCOS Phenotypes

Chronic inflammation in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may be the result of dysregulation of cytokine production (due to insulin resistance, excess visceral fat and hyperandrogenemia), i.e., overproduction of pro-inflammatory factors (e.g. TNF, IL-1, IL-6) in relation to anti-inflammatory ones (IL-10). This condition may be an important link between obesity and insulin resistance, which is crucial in the etiopathogenesis of the syndrome. However, it is not known whether it results from the tendency to accumulate adipose tissue or is a feature of the syndrome itself. There is no data indicating the relationship between chronic inflammation and the severity of metabolic disorders and the value of ovarian reserve in women with various PCOS phenotypes.

Read the detailed description

The study population will be characterized in terms of demographic (age, BMI), gynaecological (cycle length, menstrual pain, abnormal uterine bleeding) and obstetrics (pregnancies, childbirth, miscarriages) data. PCOS syndrome (and its phenotypes: A, B, C, D) will be recognized by the Rotterdam criteria. During hospitalization, blood samples will be collected for scheduled analyses (20 ml of blood in total).

Being tested
Measurement and comparison of leucocytosis and concentrations of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-6, IL-10, Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF-alpha) in PCOS phenotypes A, B, C and D, Evaluation of the correlation of serum concentrations of selected inflammatory markers (leucocytosis, CRP, IL-1, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-alpha) with metabolic and hormonal parameters

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, run by Jagiellonian University at 1 site in Poland.

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 3 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 30 Jul 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 Poland. 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?

Values of inflammation parameters - leukocytosis in peripheral blood in the four PCOS phenotypes (time frame: up to 3 months). The study lists 6 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 30 Jul 2024.
