About this study

Official title: The Screening and Analysis of Plasma Biomarkers in Irreversible Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Associated With Congenital Heart Disease

The purpose of this study is to analyse the sensitivity and specificity of circulating endothelial cells to predict irreversible pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with congenital heart disease.

Read the detailed description

predict to recruit 100 patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)associated with CHD,under the commitment of the children's parents,take 3-4ml central venous blood before the corrective surgery,then calculate the number of the circulating endothelial cells by flow cytometer AND detect the expression of micro RNAs to screen out the biomarker,through the 6 months follow-up, separated the reversible and irreversible PAH,then to carry on the statistics.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT02267200
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
reversible PAH groupreversible PAH was defined as sPAP decreasing to 40 mmHg after follow-up more than 6 months through echocardiography.
irreversible PAH groupirreversible PAH was defined as 6 months after surgery through echocardiography ,the sPAP remaining 40 mmHg or up

What is being measured

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

  1. the number of Circulation endothelial cells and the detective count of microRNAs

    the number of Circulation endothelial cells and the detective count of microRNAs in the biomarkers in both groups differd significantly.

    Measured: 6 months after corrective surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertension,Pulmonary, run by Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 22 Nov 2016. 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 China. 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?

the number of Circulation endothelial cells and the detective count of microRNAs (time frame: 6 months after corrective surgery). 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 22 Nov 2016.
