Biomarkers for the Prognosis of Influenza in Children (BMIG)

June 7, 2022 updated by: Hospices Civils de Lyon

Prospective Multicentre Study to Determine Respiratory Microbiome Biomarkers for the Prognostic of Clinical Course of Influenza in Children

Context: Seasonal influenza affects 2.5 to 3 million people each year in France, resulting in 1500 to 2000 severe cases seen in intensive care units. The severity of influenza is related to, among other things, its respiratory or neurological complications, observed especially in children. Early determination of the severity of influenza is a critical step to avoid in appropriate treatment and care for patients and to improve their survival. Viral, human but also environmental factors have been described as having an important role in determining this severity. Several studies suggest that the nasopharyngeal microbiome may be involved in the incidence and severity of respiratory viral infections. During influenza infection, the respiratory microbiota is significantly altered. In animal models, particularly murine models, the microbiota regulates the immune response to influenza virus infection. In a retrospective preliminary study, the investigators showed that the composition of the nasopharyngeal bacterial microbiota is different between children who develop a severe or moderate influenza. This difference was observed on respiratory specimens at admission to pediatric emergencies within two days of onset of symptoms.

Hypotheses :

  • The respiratory microbiome is a determining factor in the clinical course of influenza infection (benign vs. severe with respiratory or neurological complication)
  • The respiratory microbiome can be used as a prognostic biomarker of the clinical course of influenza Originality: There are currently no clinical and / or virological markers to predict the clinical course of influenza infection. This study will define biomarkers of the respiratory microbiome to discriminate patients who will develop a severe influenza from those who will develop a moderate influenza. These prognostic biomarkers could be used to rapidly refer patients at risk to intensive care units, thus improving patient management and care. Moreover, at the fundamental level, this study will specify the role of the microbiome in the severity of influenza infection.

Study Overview

Status

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

No older than 5 years (CHILD)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age < 5 years
  • Seen in an emergency department with influenza confirmed by a positive test (polumerase chain reaction, rapide antigen detection test).

Exclusion Criteria:

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Definition and evaluation of a microbial signature discriminating patients developing severe influenza from those developing moderate influenza
Time Frame: Day 30
On nasopharyngeal specimen collected at inclusion, a microbial signature will be defined as a limited number of bacterial genomic groups (OTU Operational Taxonomic Unit), that will help discriminate the 2 groups of patients (evolution toward a severe or a moderate influenza, evaluated at hospital discharge).
Day 30

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
sequencing the hypervariable regions of the 16S RNA on the longitudinal respiratory specimens
Time Frame: Day 1
We will analyze the different dynamics of the composition of the microbiome associated with different influenza evolutions. The qualitative and quantitative evolution of the microbial species present in the respiratory specimens will be evaluated by sequencing the hypervariable regions of the 16S RNA on the longitudinal respiratory specimens performed on Day 1.
