About this study

The ultimate goal of this collaborative, intensive study is to discover new and effective treatments and to develop better vaccines that can be used in future outbreaks of Influenza A. By integrating the information that we will gather, we will create a unique overview of how influenza causes illness and what might be done to improve patient management.

Read the detailed description

Influenza A is one of the best studied viruses, but continues to have a very large impact on human and animal health. In addition to causing outbreaks of winter flu, it sometimes mutates to create a new virus that spreads quickly around the world. It is puzzling that the same virus appears to cause minor or absent symptoms in some people while killing others. Much remains to be understood.

The investigators have assembled an unprecedented group of internationally renowned scientists from England and Scotland who will together focus on studying a few hundred people hospitalised during the current swine flu pandemic. Such a large scale project has never before been attempted, but we are now poised to work together and integrate the many recent advances in biomedical science that relate to understanding how influenza causes disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Patients With Clinical Phenotype Presenting Also a Sequential Activation of Immune/Infammatory Pathways.

    Detailed clinical phenotype. Clinicopathological correlation will then be sought between the clinical phenotype and pathological parameters measured as per work packages.

    Measured: 15 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Influenza, run by Imperial College London at 8 sites in United Kingdom.

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 19 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Sep 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Patients With Clinical Phenotype Presenting Also a Sequential Activation of Immune/Infammatory Pathways. (time frame: 15 months). 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 NCT00965354, which also lists 2 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.

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 19 Sep 2024.
