About this study

Official title: Living Donor Liver Transplantation in Children: Surgical and Immunological Results in 250 Recipients at Université Catholique de Louvain.

Evaluate the outcome of pediatric living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) regarding portal vein reconstruction, ABO-compatibility and impact of maternal donation on graft acceptance.

Read the detailed description

Data from 250 pediatric LDLT recipients (and their donors), transplanted at Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc between July 1993 and June 2012, were collected retrospectively using electronic data files. Results were analysed according to ABO matching and portal vein complications. Uni- and multi-variate analysis was used to study the impact of immunosuppression, gender match and maternal donation on acute rejection rate.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pediatric Liver Transplanted Recipients and Healthy Donors, run by Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain.

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 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 28 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Patient and graft survival (time frame: 10 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 28 Apr 2014.
