Trial summary

Although Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a rare complication of heparin treatment, it results in a high rate of morbidity and mortality, the cumulative rate of thrombosis recurrence, amputation and death approaching 52 % at one month if no specific treatment is initiated.

About this study

Official title: Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia : Development and Validation of a Predictive Clinical Score: a Prospective Multicenter Study Under the Auspices of the French Haemostasis and Thrombosis Study Group (GEHT)in Cooperation With the French Association of Regional PharmacoVigilance Center (AFCRPV)

Although Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a rare complication of heparin treatment, it results in a high rate of morbidity and mortality, the cumulative rate of thrombosis recurrence, amputation and death approaching 52 % at one month if no specific treatment is initiated. It is therefore vital to diagnose HIT as early and as reliably as possible to permit appropriate management of this rare condition.

During the acute phase of HIT, clinicians and biologists can only suspect this complication with a greater or lesser degree of confidence. Clinical data are not sufficiently sensitive or specific to confirm or refute thr diagnosis of HIT.

Purpose : To create and validate a score predicting the diagnosis of HIT

What is being measured

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

  1. the final diagnosis of HIT established by five independent experts in haemostasis and determined by thrombocytopenia and confirmation of HIT by immunological and/or functional tests

    Measured: inclusion and 40 days after the inclusion

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. pathogenic nature of anti HPF4 antibodies of IgM and IgA type

    Measured: inclusion

  2. new biological test detecting HIT

    Measured: inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heparin-induced Thrombocytopenia, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne at 27 sites 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 3 inclusion and 2 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 27 Nov 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 27 sites 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?

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?

the final diagnosis of HIT established by five independent experts in haemostasis and determined by thrombocytopenia and confirmation of HIT by immunological and/or functional tests (time frame: inclusion and 40 days after the inclusion). 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 NCT00748839, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Nov 2012.
