About this study

Official title: Biobank of Data and of Human Biological Samples on Prematurity, Preeclampsia and Other Pregnancy Complications

The Biobank includes data and biological specimens of women from three original studies: 1) First-trimester Prediction of Preeclampsia (PREDICTION Study, NCT02189148), 2) Pre-Eclampsia And growth Retardation, an evaluative Longitudinal study (PEARL Study, NCT02379832), 3) Effect of Low Dose Aspirin on Birthweight in Twins: The GAP Trial (NCT02280031) and 4)PREDICTION2: Prediction of Preeclampsia and other Pregnancy Complications Following Combined Iterative Screening.

Read the detailed description

This Biobank is comprised of: 1) medical, social, obstetrical and ultrasonographic data, 2) human biological samples (maternal plasma, serum and buffy coat, maternal urine, cord blood) and 3) the results derived from these (biochemical or ultrasonographic markers, genetics, risk calculations ...)

What participants receive

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

  • ObservationalOther

    All women of the biobank have provided:

    1. blood samples (plasma, serum and Buffy-coat)
    2. urine samples
    3. demographic and clinical data (maternal age, BMI, smoking status, obstetrical and medical history)
    4. mean arterial blood pressure
    5. ultrasound examination (datation of pregnancy at recruitment, uterine arteries doppler, placental volume, nuchal translucency in the majority of the cases)
    6. access to medical record (for pregnancy/delivery outcomes, newborn birthweight, gestational age at delivery)

What is being measured

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

  1. early onset preeclampsia

    Preeclampsia will be defined according to the Canadian Guidelines for Diagnosis, Evaluation, and Management of the Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy guidelines, as de novo hypertension with diastolic blood pressure >90 mmHg on two occasions at least four hours apart, after 20 weeks of pregnancy, associated with proteinuria ≥300 mg/24 h or at least '2 +' protein on urine dipstick or an adverse conditions

    Measured: diagnosed between 20 and 34 weeks of gestation

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Severe preeclampsia

    Severe Preeclampsia will be defined by the presence of at least one of the following adverse condition: 1) systolic blood pressure ≥ 160 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure ≥ 110 mmHg after 4 h of bed rest, 2) proteinuria ≥ 5 g/24 h or at least '3 +' protein on urine dipstick, or 3) oliguria < 400 ml/24 h; 4) cerebral or visual disturbances; epigastric pain; pulmonary edema or cyanosis; thrombocytopenia <100,000mm

    Measured: between 20 and 42 weeks of gestation

  2. Fetal growth restriction

    Fetal growth restriction will be defined as a birth weight below the 10th centile (or below the 3rd centile for severe FGR) of Canadian reference growth charts.

    Measured: between 20 and 42 weeks of gestation

  3. spontaneous preterm birth

    sPTB is a birth occuring spontaneously between 20 and 36 6/7 weeks of gestation

    Measured: between 20 and 36 6/7 weeks of gestation

  4. Fetal aneuploidies

    Any fetal chromosome that has an abnormal number of copies. Example: trisomy 13, 18 or 21.

    Measured: diagnosed during or after pregnancy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Preeclampsia and Preterm Birth, run by CHU de Quebec-Universite Laval at 1 site in Canada.

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 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2022. 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 Canada. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Emmanuel Bujold, MD, MSc (418-525-4444 ext. 47530, emmanuel.bujold@crchudequebec.ulaval.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

early onset preeclampsia (time frame: diagnosed between 20 and 34 weeks of gestation). 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 Mar 2022.
