About this study
The main goal of this study is to evaluate the predictability of the disease by measuring the serum lubricin levels in patients with infective endocarditis and in non-patients
Read the detailed description
Infective endocarditis is a challenging disease with a wide range of clinical presentations, making it difficult to diagnose. Diagnosis primarily relies on clinical suspicion based on symptoms. Blood cultures or other microbial tests confirming the presence of infection and echocardiography are supportive diagnostic tools. Another marker that may become valuable in the near future for diagnosing infective endocarditis is Lubricin. Lubricin, a glycoprotein expressed by the PRG4 gene, has been found to have significantly elevated levels in the plasma of animals with damaged or infected heart valves compared to healthy animals. Furthermore, plasma lubricin levels can potentially serve as a biomarker in situations like endocardial injury and infection. Lubricin and Procalcitonin will be studied from the blood samples routinely collected. During this academic study, procalcitonin and lubricin values will be measured by investigators. Thus, the sensitivity and specificity of the Lubricin parameter in patients with infective endocarditis will be evaluated.

Results are not available in the source record.
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?
Valve damage indicative sign in infective endocarditis (time frame: through study completion, an average of 2 years). 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 NCT06266741, which also lists 5 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?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Feb 2024.
