About this study

Official title: Hammersmith Hospital Patients With Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformations (PAVMs) and Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia

This observational study is for individuals with Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia and pulmonary arteriovenous malformations that are reviewed at the Hammersmith Hospital, London.

Read the detailed description

The Hammersmith Hospital provides a clinical service for patients with Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia and pulmonary arteriovenous malformations that is unique in the United Kingdom. Measurements obtained as part of standard clinical practice that has evolved since 1985 allow us to assess whether particular groups of individuals that we see are more prone to recognised complications such as strokes, brain abscesses, pregnancy related complications or pulmonary hypertension. We hypothesise that certain clinical characteristics will predict the susceptibility of individuals to particular complications.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. 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 Claire L Shovlin (0208 383 1000, c.shovlin@imperial.ac.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Stroke (time frame: Prospective). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00230685, which also lists 23 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.
