About this study

Official title: Establishment of a CSF Bank for the Development of Biomarkers of Smooth Muscle Cell Damage in Monogenic Cerebral Small Vessel Disease CSF-cSVD-biobank -- Constitution d'Une Banque de LCR Pour le développement de Biomarqueurs d'Atteinte Des Cellules Musculaires Lisses Dans Les Pathologies Micro-vasculaires cérébrales monogéniques CSF-cSVD-biobank

The main objective of this research is to obtain biological markers of smooth muscle cells dysfunction or degeneration in cerebral small vessel diseases.

The aim of this research is therefore to build up a biocollection of CSF and blood samples from 1) patients with CADASIL disease (the most common form of cSVD) responsible for an accumulation of the NOTCH3 protein in the microvessel wall, 2) patients with other forms of monogenic cSVD (rarer) which are not responsible for an accumulation of this protein despite the damage to the smooth muscle cells of the vessel wall and 3) control patients without cSVD, collected in the context of care.

This bio-collection will allow the identification and assay of markers testifying to the damage of the smooth muscle cells (SMC) in different types of cSVD of hereditary origin, the first of which will be the soluble NOTCH3 protein.

What is being measured

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

  1. Differential CSF proteins

    Differential ELISA determination of CSF proteins between monogenic cSVD patients and controls

    Measured: At inclusion

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Differential blood proteins

    Differential ELISA determination of blood (plasma) proteins between monogenic cSVD patients and controls

    Measured: At inclusion

  2. Correlation blood and CSF

    Spearman correlation between plasma and CSF proteins assays in patients

    Measured: At inclusion

  3. Number

    Number of CSF and blood samples obtained in monogenic cSVD patients and the control population

    Measured: At inclusion

  4. Effect of age on blood

    Effect of age on ELISA determination of blood (plasma) proteins in patients and controls

    Measured: At inclusion

  5. Effect of age on CSF

    Effect of age on ELISA determination of CSF proteins in patients and controls

    Measured: At inclusion

  6. Link between blood protein assays and strokes

    Correlation between plasma proteins assays in patients on the number of strokes in patients

    Measured: At inclusion

  8. Link between blood protein assays and Rankin

    Correlation between plasma proteins assays in patients on the modified Rankin score

    Modified Rankin Scale permits to evaluate the degree of disability or dependance in daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. It is a 6-level scale ranging from 1 to 6. The higher the score the higher the disability.

    Modified Rankin Scale permits to evaluate the degree of disability or dependance in daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. It is a 6-level scale ranging from 1 to 6. The higher the score the higher the disability.

    Measured: At inclusion

  10. Link between blood protein assays and MMSE

    Correlation between plasma proteins assays in patients on the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE)

    The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) permits to evaluate cognitive state of patients. It is a 30 items scale and the score varies between 0 and 30. The higher the score the better cognitive function.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cerebral Small Vessel Diseases and CADASIL (Diagnosis), run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris.

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 47 inclusion and 0 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 31 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 CHABRIAT Hugues, Pr (+33 1 49 95 25 93, hugues.chabriat@aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Differential CSF proteins (time frame: At inclusion). 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 31 Mar 2023.
