About this study

Official title: Detection of Autologous DEHP (DiEthylHexyl Phthalate)-Free Blood Transfusion Using a Combination of Multiple Biomarkers in Different Matrices.

The aim of the proposed project is to perform a clinical study in which volunteers will receive autologous blood transfusions in DEHP-free blood bags.

What participants receive

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

  • Autologous blood transfusionBiological

    Volunteers make a blood donation and after 36 days of storage this blood is re-infused in the same volunteers.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of blood parameters profile, iron metabolism and genomic compounds

    Blood profiling such as measurement of concentration of different blood cells and hemoglobin will be measured up to 15 days after blood-reinfusion. Concentration of free-iron, ferritin and hepcidin will be measured in plasma and serum up to 15 days after blood re-infusion.

    Concentration of circulating microRNAs will be measured in plasma also up to 15 days after blood re-infusion. All measures are compared.

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Autologous blood transfusion in people with Transfusion Reaction, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 5 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 Apr 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 Switzerland. 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?

Measurement of blood parameters profile, iron metabolism and genomic compounds (time frame: 1 month). 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 NCT02423135, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Apr 2015.
