Trial summary

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 is a myopathy with complex respiratory pattern and at risk to develop respiratory failure. Classical mode of ventilation are sometimes not tolerated or ineffective in this population. New modes of nocturnal ventilation by combining both volumetric and barometric advantages.

About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomized Controlled Single Blind Study of Efficacy and Tolerance of AVAPS Mode Compared to Bilevel Pressure Ventilation un Adult Patients With Myotonic Dystrophy

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 is a myopathy with complex respiratory pattern and at risk to develop respiratory failure. Classical mode of ventilation are sometimes not tolerated or ineffective in this population. New modes of nocturnal ventilation by combining both volumetric and barometric advantages. The aim of this study is to compare effect of AVAPS mode to bilevel pressure support.

Read the detailed description

Justification of study

Respiratory abnormalities are complex in Myotonic dystrophy type 1. Some patients presented with isolated alveolar hypoventilation and breathe rhythm irregularity. Nocturnal ventilation is usually proposed but usual modes of ventilation can't provide enough respiratory assistance for patients especially during REM sleep or too much respiratory assistance increasing the risk of asynchrony. The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of the mode AVAPS (a mode permitting a pressure support with guaranteed volume and offering advantage of volume and pressure support with Bipap A30 Phillips Respironics) compared to bilevel pressure support.

Main Objective To evaluate efficacy of AVAPS Mode at day 7 on arterial PCO2 under ventilation after launching ventilation.

Secondary Objectives To evaluate efficacy of AVAPS Mode at day 90 on daytime arterial PCO2 after launching ventilation.

To evaluate compliance to ventilation at day 7 and 90. To evaluate clinical efficacy on respiratory symptoms, dyspnea and sleepiness at day 1 and 90.

To evaluate quality of life at day 1 and 90. To evaluate effect of AVAPS on polysomnography, nocturnal SaO2, nocturnal PtCO2.

To evaluate Multiple sleep latency and Maintenance of wakefulness tests at day 90.

To evaluate effect of AVAPS on respiratory parameters VC and mouth maximal pressures.

Type of study: Prospective, monocentre, randomized, controlled single blind study on 2 parallel group.

Number of subjects: 32 patients recruited in home ventilation unit of Raymond Poincaré hospital.

Selection criteria : Patients with Myotonic dystrophy presenting at least one clinical signs : effort or rest dyspnea, orthopnea, sleepiness, morning headache or VC<50% or Pi max< 60 cm H2O or time of SaO2<90% more than 5 minutes and Hypercapnia > 6.0 kPa.

Study process Preceding screening period within the 3 months before inclusion. Day 1 to day 3 baseline evaluation. Day 3 Inclusion and Randomisation Day 3 to 8 Launch of ventilation Day 8 Home discharge Day 90 Evaluation of efficacy (secondary objectives) and observance.

Duration Participation of a patient 3 months. Period of inclusion 24 months. Total duration of study 30 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nocturnal ventilation in people with Myopathy, run by Centre d'Investigation Clinique et Technologique 805 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 5 inclusion and 7 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 10 Mar 2017. 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?

arterial PCO2 under ventilation (time frame: 7 days). 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 10 Mar 2017.
