Trial summary

Sepsis is a serious systemic disease defined as a combination of Systemic Inflammation Response Syndrome (SIRS) plus a confirmed or suspected infection. Untreated or inadequately treated cases can lead to severe sepsis or septic shock; being characterized by high mortality and morbidity. Read more about this study

About this study

Sepsis is a serious systemic disease defined as a combination of Systemic Inflammation Response Syndrome (SIRS) plus a confirmed or suspected infection. Untreated or inadequately treated cases can lead to severe sepsis or septic shock; being characterized by high mortality and morbidity.

Symptoms and signs of sepsis are variable and this makes clinical recognition and assessment very difficult in particular on Emergency Department (ED) patients due to their infectious illness background and the frequent comorbidities. Also, the severity of the condition may not be apparent at initial contact with ED personnel: patients may arrive at ED with mild clinical manifestation and rapidly progress to critical illness, or rather at the opposite others have benign evolution despite a similar symptoms. In these conditions, the main challenge of ED clinicians is differentiating mild infections from life-threatening ones in the heavy workload of ED environment Objective of TRIAGE project is to identify and validate biomarkers able to predict the clinical worsening of patients freshly admitted at Emergency Department.

Targeted population is adult patients freshly admitted at ED, whom blood samples will serve to validate candidate markers.

What is being measured

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

  1. patient worsening within a time frame of 72h,change, from day of inclusion, in Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (SOFA) and/or sepsis classification

    A biostatistics analysis will be led in two steps. The first analysis or "train set" will be conducted on the first 150 patients enrolled, estimated size to reach statistical performance. The objective is to identify markers associated with clinical worsening of patients and decide on a model by selecting the best combination of markers. In a second time, performance will be confirmed during the "test set". The number of samples to be tested depends on the target performance calculated with the area under the Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC). We decided to aim for an AUC of 0.75, based on the performance described in the literature for some triage score as MEDS (Mortality in Emergency Department Sepsis) or those associated with Lactate concentration used as marker of sepsis deterioration in ED

    Measured: Up to 72 hours after admission

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. patient status at D28 (alive or death)

    A biostatistics analysis will be led in two steps. The first analysis or "train set" will be conducted on the first 150 patients enrolled. The objective is to identify markers associated with mortality at day 28. In a second time, the performance will be confirmed during the "test set".

    Measured: Up to 28 days after admission

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sepsis and Severe Sepsis, run by BioMérieux at 14 sites in 2 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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 24 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in France, Belgium. 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?

patient worsening within a time frame of 72h,change, from day of inclusion, in Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (SOFA) and/or sepsis classification (time frame: Up to 72 hours after admission). 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 24 Apr 2018.
