About this study

Official title: Single-cell Immunomics Research on the Onset and Different Outcomes in Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis

Three HLA-B27-positive health donors (HDs) with matching age were enrolled via genetic screening, and fourteen AS patients were recruited at Fujian provincial hospital from May to July 2021. All AS patients satisfied the modified New York (NY) criteria, and the categorization of three disease groups (EA, LD and RM) was according to clinical hallmarks and imaging evidences. The five patients in the EA group were in the early stage of disease, showing obvious symptoms, and had not yet received standard treatments, including various NSAIDs and DMARDs. The five patients in the LD group were all disabled, and confirmed by radiographic evidence of structural damage in hip joints and spinal deformity. The four patients in the RM group received standardized treatment under the guidance of specialist doctors, and maintained clinical remission and normal laboratory indicators for over six months. Patients in both EA and RM groups were confirmed to have no structural damage or deformities by radiographic evidences.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Disease status in people with Ankylosing Spondylitis, run by Fujian Provincial Hospital at 1 site in China.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 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 China. 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?

Assessment of the immunological characteristics regarding the onset and outcomes of ankylosing-spondylitis patients relying on single-cell transcriptomics analysis for four groups of subjects (including health donors and patients in early active stage, l (time frame: 8 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 4 Mar 2025.
