Trial summary

N-acetyltransferase2 (NAT2) and Cytochrome P4502E1 (CYP2E1) are two drug metabolizing enzymes. Antituberculosis drug isoniazid is acetylated by NAT2 and forms ultimately a nontoxic compound which is metabolized by CYP2E1 to a toxic metabolite. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prospective Study of N-acetyltransferase2 (NAT2) Gene and Rifampicin Induced Cytochrome P-450 as Susceptible Risk Factors for Antituberculosis Drug Induced Hepatitis

N-acetyltransferase2 (NAT2) and Cytochrome P4502E1 (CYP2E1) are two drug metabolizing enzymes. Antituberculosis drug isoniazid is acetylated by NAT2 and forms ultimately a nontoxic compound which is metabolized by CYP2E1 to a toxic metabolite. Slow acetylator genotype of NAT2 and wild type genotype of CYP2E1 gene has been attributed to greater toxicity of ATT drug. Therefore this study has been designed to analyze the genetic polymorphism of NAT2 and CYP2E1 genes in tuberculosis patients who developed drug induced hepatitis upon administration of antituberculosis drug.Polymorphism study of NAT2 and CYP2E1 gene may help in predicting the high risk group of ATT induced hepatitis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Tuberculosis, run by Maulana Azad Medical College at 1 site in India.

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 3 Feb 2009. 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 India. 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.

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 3 Feb 2009.
