About this study

Official title: Biomarkers of Fetal Infection and Disease Following Maternal HCMV Infection

The purposes of this study are to determine 1) if the diagnosis of CMV fetal infection could be done directly in the maternal blood instead of requesting an amniocentesis and 2) if innovative technologies such as proteomic, transcriptomic, methylomic and lipidomic applied in fetal samples could allow the discovery of new biomarkers of fetal infection.

Read the detailed description

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the most common cause of congenital infection worldwide. The diagnosis of CMV fetal infection relies on the detection of viral DNA in amniotic fluid by polymerase chain reaction after amniocentesis. Non-invasive diagnosis of fetal infection directly in maternal blood is not available. Symptoms develop in about 10% of HCMV-infected fetuses. Despite important advance in medical imaging, establishing the prognosis of an infected fetus remains challenging. Thrombocytopenia, blood HCMV DNA, anti-HCMV immunoglobulin M and β2-microglobulin are recognized biomarkers of symptomatic fetal infections. However, the predictive value of these individual markers is not. Omics technologies could help to establish multimarker signatures of symptomatic infections.

The objective of the study is to:

  • validate fetal blood HCMV DNA, anti-HCMV immunoglobulin M , β2-microglobulin and platelet count as biomarkers of fetal disease;
  • identify new biomarkers of severe fetal disease using transcriptomic, methylomic and lipidomic analyses of fetal blood and of amniotic fluid.
  • validate a non-invasive CMV fetal infection diagnosis tool based on deep-sequencing of targeted CMV genes in maternal blood

  1. Number of Participants With Abnormal Laboratory Values in fetal blood

    Fetal platelet in mm3/ml, β2 microglobulinein mg/L, proteins concentration in mg/L , Metabolites concentration in mmoles/l , Lipids concentration in mmoles/l , RNA messagers concentration in µg/ml profil

    Measured: At 23 weeks gestation +/- 3 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants With Abnormal Laboratory Values in amniotic fluid

    CMV DNA quantification in UI/mL , protein concentration in mg/L, Metabolites concentration in mmoles/l , Lipids concentration in mmoles/l, RNAm concentration in µg/ml profil ,

    Measured: At 23 weeks gestation +/- 3 weeks

  2. Non invasive diagnosis of fetal CMV infection in maternal blood in UI/mL.

    CMV fetal DNA measurement in maternal blood

    Measured: At 23 weeks gestation +/- 5 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cytomegalovirus Congenital, 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 5 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Nov 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Marianne LERUEZ, MD, PhD (+33 (0) 1 44 49 49 49 62, marianne.leruez@aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Abnormal Laboratory Values in fetal blood (time frame: At 23 weeks gestation +/- 3 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03090841, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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?
