Trial summary

H syndrome is a rare genetic disorder predisposing to histiocytosis. Our knowledge of the clinical spectrum of these patients is based on case reports and small patient series. Patients with H syndrome have been treated with a range of immunomodulatory and chemotherapeutic agents, with limited success. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Histiocytosis and Inflammatory Manifestations in Patients with H Syndrome- a Multinational Collaboration

H syndrome is a rare genetic disorder predisposing to histiocytosis. Our knowledge of the clinical spectrum of these patients is based on case reports and small patient series. Patients with H syndrome have been treated with a range of immunomodulatory and chemotherapeutic agents, with limited success. We aim to comprehensively assess the clinical manifestations and patterns of treatment response in a multinational cohort of patients with H syndrome.

Read the detailed description

H syndrome is a rare inflammatory genetic disorder predisposing to histiocytosis, caused by germline biallelic loss-of-function mutations in SLC29A3, encoding the protein equilibrative nucleoside transporter 3 (ENT3). ENT3 transports nucleosides from lysosomes to the cytoplasm following lysosomal degradation of nucleic acids. Results from our previous study (under review) suggest a model in which impaired nucleoside trafficking aberrantly activates nucleoside-sensing Toll-like receptors, leading to persistent activation of ERK, driving histiocytosis. This constitutes a novel signaling pathway leading to activation of ERK and histiocytosis, in the absence of somatic mutations in MAPK cascade genes. Our knowledge of the heterogenous clinical spectrum of these patients is based on case reports and small patient series. Patients with H syndrome have been treated with a range of immunomodulatory and chemotherapeutic agents, with limited success. Improvement following therapy with tocilizumab, an IL6-receptor antibody, has recently been reported in isolated case reports. There is a lack of data on MEK inhibitor therapy in these patients. We aim to comprehensively assess the clinical manifestations and patterns of treatment response in a multinational cohort of patients with H syndrome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of H Syndrome, run by Rabin Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 0 inclusion and 1 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Dec 2024. 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 Israel. 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?

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 Sarah Elitzur, MD (+97239253766, sarhae@clalit.org.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Response to therapy (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 19 Dec 2024.
