About this study

Interstitial lung disease is a chronic progressive fibrosis lung disease that with a highly variable clinical process.thence it is significant for the patient to search a convenient and accurate prediction method. The objective of this study was to determine whether peripheral blood biomarkers can predict disease .

Read the detailed description

The median follow-up period was 12 months, each patient received 4 or 5 follow-ups in our center, 336 person-times in study enrollment totally. The patients with interstitial lung disease had significantly higher serum baseline KL-6 and MMP-7 levels compared with healthy control.They divided into progressive group and non-progressive group according to disease change. Serum KL-6 and MMP-7 levels were elevated in patients if disease progression, but baseline level of biomarkers in progressive group were not significant higher compare with non-progressive group .Binary logistic regression showed △KL-6 and △MMP-7 were significant predictors for disease progression. Multivariate Cox analysis showed KL-6 and MMP-7 were significantly associated with survival along with other variables.

The serum levels of KL-6 and MMP-7 were elevated in the individuals with interstitial lung disease compared with healthy controls. The rate of poor prognosis and mortality more associated with the variability increased biomarker concentrations,rather than the baseline concentration.Therefore,Serial measurements of biomarkers contribute to the disease monitoring in clinical management.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sequential Changes of Serum KL-6 Predict Progression in Interstitial Lung Disease

    Serum samples were prospectively collected from 70 patients including baseline, 1 month, 2 months, 6 months and 12 months, which were tested for a panel of Krebs van den Lungen-6 antigen (KL-6), by latex agglutination test.We have demonstrated that an increase in serum KL-6 levels, but not the level at any one point in time, predicts poor prognosis.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Sequential Changes of Serum MMP-7 Predict Progression in Interstitial Lung Disease

    Serum samples were prospectively collected from 70 patients including baseline, 1 month, 2 months, 6 months and 12 months, which were tested for a panel of matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7), by ELISA-based.We have demonstrated that an increase in serum MMP-7 levels, but not the level at any one point in time, predicts poor prognosis.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Interstitial Lung Disease, Desquamative, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University 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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Sequential Changes of Serum KL-6 Predict Progression in Interstitial Lung Disease (time frame: 3 years). 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 10 Nov 2016.
