Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Up to 18 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: The study cohort will consist of any SOT or HSCT recipient ≤18 years of age that received their transplant between January 1st, 2010 and June 30th, 2013. Participants will have information collected from 30 days prior to transplant until the first of the following: 365 days post receipt of transplant, death, or loss to follow-up. If a patient has more than one viral respiratory infection of the same pathogen during the study period, then only the first infection will be considered unless isolated at least one month after the first positive test and only if after at least two negative tests for that same virus. A patient can contribute more than one viral respiratory infection if they are caused by different viral pathogens.

Who may be able to join

  • Males or females age 0 to <18 years at the time of HSCT or SOT
  • Transplantation occurred between January 1st, 2010 and June 30th, 2013.

Who cannot join

  • None

About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Consortium to Define the Epidemiology and Outcomes of Respiratory Viral Infections in Pediatric Transplant Recipients

A retrospective cohort of solid organ transplant (SOT) and hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients will be assembled to determine the incidence of respiratory viral infections diagnosed during an inpatient admission in the first year post-transplant. A sub-cohort of patients that develop a respiratory viral infection within one year of transplantation will be leveraged to investigate factors associated with mortality in the three months after respiratory viral infection.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of the study is to 1) Determine the incidence of respiratory viral infections diagnosed during the first year post SOT and HSCT; 2a) Determine the all-cause mortality within 3 months of a respiratory viral infection diagnosed during an inpatient admission in the first year post SOT and HSCT; 2b) Determine the proportion of deaths within 3 months of a respiratory viral infection diagnosed during an inpatient admission deemed to be directly attributable to that infection; and 3) To identify factors known at time of onset of the inpatient respiratory viral infection that are associated with all-cause mortality. The study cohort will consist of any SOT or HSCT recipient ≤18 years of age that received their transplant between January 1st, 2010 and June 30th, 2013. Th cohort will determine the incidence of respiratory viral infections diagnosed during an inpatient admission in the first year post-transplant. A sub-cohort of patients that develop a respiratory viral infection within one year of transplantation will be leveraged to investigate factors associated with mortality in the 3 months after respiratory viral infection. Baseline and demographic characteristics will be summarized by standard descriptive summaries. Categorical variables will be summarized by frequencies while continuous variables will be summarized using mean, standard deviation and/or median, twenty-fifth and seventy-fifth percentiles, minimum, and maximum. This is a minimal risk study using data that will be collected retrospectively from medical charts. The only potential risk would be loss of confidentiality.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of respiratory viral infection

    Pediatric SOT/HSCT recipients who do not develop respiratory viral infection within 1 year following transplant

    Measured: 1 year post transplant

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. All-cause mortality of respiratory viral infection

    Determine the all-cause mortality within 3 months of a respiratory viral infection diagnosed during an inpatient admission in the first year post SOT and HSCT.

    Measured: 3 months after respiratory viral infection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Infection in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients and Complications of Organ Transplant, run by Duke University at 1 site in United States.

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 16 Dec 2015. 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 United States. 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?

Incidence of respiratory viral infection (time frame: 1 year post transplant). 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 16 Dec 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
