About this study

Official title: A Study of Immune Heterogeneity Before and After Cardiopulmonary Bypass in Children Undergoing Cardiac Surgery Based on ScRNA-seq

The goal of this observational study is to learn about functional heterogeneity of immune cells before and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in children with congenital heart disease (CHD). The main question[s] it aims to answer are:

  • Does CPB cause immune paralysis after CHD surgery?
  • How does the functional heterogeneity of immune cells change before and after CPB in children undergoing CHD surgery? Participants will receive 3ml of peripheral blood before CPB, 2 hours after CPB, and 3 days after CPB, and the peripheral blood samples will be sequenced by single cell to explore the immune heterogeneity before and after CPB.
Read the detailed description

CPB-induced immune paralysis is the main cause of postoperative infection in CHD, which seriously affects the prognosis of children. The underlying mechanism of CPB-induced immune paralysis has not been fully determined. This study intends to use scRNA-seq to describe gene transcription profiles of immune cells in peripheral blood of children undergoing CHD surgery before and after CPB, and explore the differences within and between different immune cell populations including T cells and the changes of immune cells in different sequences. To fill the gap in the study of immune mechanism in CPB-induced immune paralysis microenvironment at single-cell resolution.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT06214182
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group T1T1 is before CPB.
Group T2T2 is 2 hours after CPB.
Group T3T3 is 3 days after CPB.

What is being measured

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

  1. Expression of genes

    The gene expression in single cells of peripheral blood samples was detected

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of CPB at 3 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ventricular Septal Defect, run by The Children's Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 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 China. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Expression of genes (time frame: From enrollment to the end of CPB at 3 days). 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 11 Mar 2025.
