About this study

Official title: National, Single-arm Clinical Study on iDTECT™ Blood Performance to Identify Viral or Bacterial Pathogens in Febrile Neutropenic Patients With Suspected Infection

Prospective, multicentre French observational study assessing the performance and medico-economic utility of iDTECT Blood versus conventional microbiologic diagnosis in patients with febrile neutropenia

Read the detailed description

Febrile neutropenic patients suspected of sepsis will follow the conventional infectious diagnosis work-up over the entire observation period, and will be tested in addition with iDTECT Blood on Study Day 1.

What participants receive

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

  • iDTECT BloodDiagnostic test

    Next generation sequencing-based shot-gun metagenomic test for the diagnosis of viral or bacterial infections using blood samples

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of detection of clinically relevant bacterial or viral pathogen (CRBV) by iDTECT™ Blood as compared to conventional microbiological methods at inclusion

    Sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, positive predictive value at inclusion

    Measured: 7 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Antiobiotic use

    Type of antibiotic, duration of antibiotic course

    Measured: 9 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Febrile Neutropenia and Acute Leukemia, run by Pathoquest at 5 sites 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 21 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites 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 Dangles (+33687137695, christine.dangles@pathoquest.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of detection of clinically relevant bacterial or viral pathogen (CRBV) by iDTECT™ Blood as compared to conventional microbiological methods at inclusion (time frame: 7 months). 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 21 Mar 2019.
