About this study

Official title: Prediction of Recruitment Potential of Participating Centers in Clinical Trials by Standardized Translation of Selection Criteria and Queries From the French DRG Database (PMSI)

This retrospective study aims to assess, on a large number of clinical trials (CT), the usefulness of converting CT eligibility criteria into standardized queries performed on commonly available data, i.e. Diagnosis Related Groups (DRG) databases in order to estimate the potential recruitment of clinical trials centers.

Efficacy of this Clinical Trial Recruitment Support Systems (CTRSS) will be checked against thorough examination of patient files.

Read more

Primary objective is to estimate the precision of the prediction system, i.e. ratio of numbers of eligible patient files / numbers of candidate patient files.

As secondary objectives, the study aims:

  • to measure the recall rate or sensitivity of the system: ratio of number of candidates patient files / number of recruited patients;
  • to measure the ability of coding: proportion of codable criteria (inclusion criteria or non inclusion criteria) into normalized language;
  • to measure the time required for coding criteria and the time required to execute the queries on the national DRG database;
  • to evaluate the reliability of coding process by an independent coding of a random sample of 30 protocols;
  • to analyse influence of characteristics of the clinical study (design, disease, ...) and of the investigation site (volume, teaching status, ...) on the precision and sensitivity of the prediction system.
Read the detailed description

The study will be performed on a large sample (near 100) of multicenter terminated clinical studies with public funding covering therapeutic, diagnostic or prognostic studies. Selection (inclusion, non inclusion) criteria of each CT will be translated into a normalized description using ICD10 and french nomenclature of medical or surgical procedures (CCAM, Classification Commune des Actes Médicaux), these very nomenclatures being used in the french DRG system. Then a dedicated program will query the French DRG national database called PMSI (Programme de Médicalisation des Systèmes d'Information).

For each CT and for each center, the query will select "candidate" patients whose eligibility will be checked by thorough examination of the whole patient file by dedicated data extractors. In addition, already recruited patients will be compared to the prediction of the system.

Collected data span the period between 2010 and 2014, as well as with the medical files.

What is being measured

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

  1. Precision

    Precision = Ratio of number of eligible patient files / number of candidate patient files.

    The precision will be calculated globally and according to medical domain and aim (therapeutic, diagnostic and prognostic) of modelized clinical studies.

    Measured: throughout the study: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Sensitivity of system

    Ratio of number of candidate patient files / number of already recruited patients.

    Measured: throughout the study: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multicenter Clinical Study, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 3 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Mar 2025. 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 France. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Precision (time frame: throughout the study: 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 20 Mar 2025.
