About this study

Observational study to estimate the prevalence of genetic DAO deficiency in the population.

Read the detailed description

Diamine oxidase (DAO) is an enzyme encoded by the AOC1 gene responsible for the degradation of extracellular histamine. There are different factors that can induce a decrease in the DAO activity, with genetic origin being the main one. Currently, multiple genes have been identified SNPs that can alter the correct functioning of the DAO. The four most relevant SNPs that lead to a reduction in the enzymatic activity of DAO or a transcriptional activity decreased in this are the following: c.47C>T (rs10156191), c.995C>T (rs1049742), c.1990C>G (rs1049793) and c.-691G>T (rs2052129). Clinical studies indicate that DAO deficiency has a high prevalence in diseases such as Migraine (87%), fibromyalgia (75%) or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children (75%). However, to date no study has been conducted exploring the prevalence gene of DAO deficiency in the general population. Thus, the objective of this study is to estimate the prevalence of genetic DAO deficiency in the population.

What is being measured

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

  1. AOC1 gene variants

    DAO deficiency will be defined as the presence of at least one of the SNPs of the AOC1 gene described previously, with reference rs10156191, rs1049742, rs1049793 and rs2052129

    Measured: In a range from day of birth up to 3 days of life

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of DAO Genetic Variants, run by AB Biotek at 1 site in Spain.

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 3 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 29 Nov 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 Spain. 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?

AOC1 gene variants (time frame: In a range from day of birth up to 3 days of life). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06710366, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 29 Nov 2024.
