Trial summary

Context: The Ro60 protein associates with YRNAs (or RNYs) to form the RoRNP complex, which regulates RNA surveillance and maturation. It is hypothesized that its impairment by nuclear penetration of the anti-Ro60 autoantibodies, would deregulate the anti-inflammatory response in monocytes/macrophages (Mo/Mp) in… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Ro60 Expression in Macrophages in Patients with Primary Sjogren's Syndrome

Context: The Ro60 protein associates with YRNAs (or RNYs) to form the RoRNP complex, which regulates RNA surveillance and maturation. It is hypothesized that its impairment by nuclear penetration of the anti-Ro60 autoantibodies, would deregulate the anti-inflammatory response in monocytes/macrophages (Mo/Mp) in patients with Sjögren's disease (SD).

What participants receive

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

  • Positive serology for anti-SSADiagnostic test

    Blood sample which detect serology for anti-SSA.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Sjögren's diseaseExperimentalSSp patients followed by the Internal Medicine Department of Nice University Hospital will be offered participation in this study as part of their usual follow-up.

ControlNo interventionControl subjects will be recruited from the nursing staff of Nice University Hospital on a voluntary basis.

What is being measured

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

  1. SSA/Ro60 interactions

    To evaluate whether the presence of anti-Ro60 autoantibodies causes the loss of Ro60 binding activity to genomic DNA and the TREX protein complex in PBMC.

    Measure the presence of anti-Ro60 autoantibodies in blood.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The molecular and functional impact : inflammatory cytokine and chemokine profiles

    To explore the molecular and functional impact of the anti-Ro60 autoantibodies in Mo/Ma to gain insights into the pathological relevance by evaluating inflammatory cytokine and chemokine profiles with using the ELISA (Enzyme Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay) technique.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. The molecular and functional impact : cell apoptosis/survival and cellular polarization

    To explore the molecular and functional impact of the anti-Ro60 autoantibodies in Mo/Ma to gain insights into the pathological relevance by assessing cell apoptosis/survival and cellular polarization with flow-cytometry analysis.

    Measured: 1 year

  3. The molecular and functional impact : clinical and biochemical phenotypes of CD14+ monocytes/macrophages

    To explore the molecular and functional impact of the anti-Ro60 autoantibodies in Mo/Ma to gain insights into the pathological relevance by comparing clinical and biochemical phenotypes of CD14+ monocytes/macrophages by labeling with Monoclonal Antibodies then count the number of cells.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Positive serology for anti-SSA in people with Sjogren's Syndrome, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice 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 4 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Mar 2025. 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?

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?

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?

SSA/Ro60 interactions (time frame: 1 year). 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 11 Mar 2025.
