Trial summary

Shock is a severe deficiency in oxygen at the cell level which could lead to the death.The study was aimed at finding markers of treatment response in patients with shock, with a better accuracy than that of lactate actually used : hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), circulating DNA (cDNA), and plasma from cells (MPs).

About this study

Shock is a severe deficiency in oxygen at the cell level which could lead to the death.The study was aimed at finding markers of treatment response in patients with shock, with a better accuracy than that of lactate actually used : hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), circulating DNA (cDNA), and plasma from cells (MPs).

Read the detailed description

Shock is a severe deficiency in oxygen at the cell level which could lead to the death. The treatment strategy relies on the profile of plasma lactate level, which the kinetics and metabolism are inadequate for evaluating the treatment efficiency without delay. Hence, it is now critical to identify adequate markers of dysoxia.

The study was aimed at finding markers of treatment response in patients with shock, with a better accuracy than that of lactate.To this purpose, a multiple approach is undertaken with the analysis of 3 independent markers of cellular ischemia : hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), circulating DNA (cDNA), and plasma from cells (MPs). Indeed, the characteristics of HIF as marker of cell dysoxia, and MPs as markers of cell apoptosis, combined with cDNA seem providing complementary information in order to describe the consequences of shock as well as the response to treatment.

Samples of patients will be collected (from rest of blood sample collected for other measurements) at each step of the management of these patients. The evolution of these markers will be compared with that of lactate plasma levels (standard of care). Subgroup analysis will be undertaken in relation with the cause of shock state (septic, cardiogenic, hemorrhagic).

What is being measured

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

  1. Demonstrate the superiority of at least one of 3 markers (HIF, MPs, cDNA) with regard to plasma lactate level for evaluating the treatment response in patients with shock

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing blood sample in people with Shock State, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille at 1 site 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 Aug 2014. 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 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?

Demonstrate the superiority of at least one of 3 markers (HIF, MPs, cDNA) with regard to plasma lactate level for evaluating the treatment response in patients with shock (time frame: 2 years). 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 29 Aug 2014.
