About this study

Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), also known as Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome, is an inherited multisystemic disorder. Literature suggests that HHT is often associated with higher frequency of infectious diseases.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a variety of immunologic parameters in the blood serum of HHT patients in comparison to probands.

Read the detailed description

Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), also known as Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome, is an inherited multisystemic disorder with recurrent epistaxis, mucocutaneous telangiectasia and visceral arteriovenous malformations. Literature and the investigators' observation suggest that HHT is often associated with higher frequency of infectious diseases. This might be a hint for a immunocompromised situation.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a variety of immunologic parameters in the blood serum of HHT patients in comparison to probands.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT), run by University Hospital, Essen at 1 site in Germany.

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 20 Dec 2019. 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 Germany. 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?

Amounts of leucocytes in patients with HHT (time frame: November 2016 - December 2018). 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 20 Dec 2019.
