About this study

Official title: Characterization of Anti-HLA Alloimmunization After Pulmonary Valve Homograft Insertion (CAssIOPé)

This is a prospective, monocentric, observational cohort study whose main objective is to describe the number and rate of patients who developed DSAs (Donor Specific Antibody) at 6 months post-surgery with implantation of a cryopreserved lung homograft.

Read the detailed description

Lung homograft is used in a large number of complex malformations. It is accepted that homografts may induce immune reactions in the recipient, but no immunological studies have been carried out to characterize the recipient's immune reactions to the homograft and their potential impact on valve function. In this project, the authors propose to study the immunizing character of cryopreserved lung homografts by identifying the appearance of antibodies directed against the HLA, DSA (Donor Specific Antibodies) molecules of the graft (lung homograft) at 1 month and 6 months after its surgical implantation.The primary objective will be analyzed by describing the rate of patients who developed DSA at 6 months post-surgery with implantation of a cryopreserved lung homograft.

Being tested
Blood collection T0, Blood collection 6 months

What participants receive

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

  • Blood collection T0Procedure or surgery

    2 blood samples will be taken in addition to the pre-operative check-up.

  • Blood collection 6 monthsProcedure or surgery

    1 blood sample will be taken 6 months after surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Detection of DSA at 6 months

    Luminex® detection of DSA at 6 months after lung homograft implantation

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. DSA Quantification

    DSA will be quantified in patients who developed DSA 6 months after lung homograft implantation

    Measured: 6 months

  2. antibody anti-HDLA (non DSA) detection

    Detection or non-detection of non-DSA anti-HLA antibodies will be assessed by Mean Fluorescence Intensity.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Early degeneration of the homograft

    The early degeneration of the homograft will be defined by the occurrence of at least one of the following criteria:

    • Need to replace lung homograft
    • Need for dilatation during catheterization of lung homografts
    • Maximum gradient across the lung homograft ≥ 30mmhg on echography at 6 months
    • Pulmonary insufficiency ≥ moderate on echography at 6 months

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood collection T0 and Blood collection 6 months in people with Lung Graft Dysfunction, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille.

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 5 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Nov 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Marien Lenois, PhD (+33 491386000, marien.lenoir@ap-hm.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Detection of DSA at 6 months (time frame: 6 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 2 Nov 2023.
