Evaluation of Intestinal Bacterial and Fungal Translocation and Intestinal Microbiota in Febrile Neutropenic Patients in Pediatric Onco-hematology (TRANSNEUTROFEB)

January 4, 2021 updated by: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes
This pilot study aims to study intestinal bacterial and fungal translocation and the evolution of the intestinal microbiota in patients over the course of their medical surveillance to search for a link between dysbiosis and bacterial/fungal translocation, but also to better understand the elements involved in febrile episodes in these patients (lack of detection of blood microorganisms, translocation of constituent elements of these microorganisms, etc.). We hypothesize that the composition of the intestinal microbiota as well as the phenomenon of intestinal microbial translocation will have an influence on the occurrence of fever and/or bacteremia in neutropenic patients hospitalized in pediatric onco-hematology.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

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

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

1 second to 20 years (ADULT, CHILD)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients presenting to the CHU Nîmes onco-pediatric service with febrile neutropenia

Description

  • Inclusion Criteria:

    • Information concerning the study set-up, objectives, constraints and the patient's rights is transmitted
    • The patient and/or their legal guardian must have given their free and informed consent. If the patient is over 18, it is the patient who signs the consent form
    • The patient must be a member or beneficiary of a health insurance plan

  • Exclusion Criteria:

    • The patient is under state guardianship or safeguard of justice
    • Refusal to sign the consent

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
Evaluate the effect of presence of bacterial and fungal translocation on occurrence of episodes of febrile neutropenia in pediatric onco-hematology patients.
Time Frame: Between day 7-15
Presence or absence of microbial translocation; presence = ≥ 10 copies of rDNA16S/µL and/or ≥ 1 copies rDNA 18S/µL and ≥10 ng/mL LBP, ≥10 ng/mL of sCD14 and ≥5 ng/mL of zonulin.
Between day 7-15

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
Evaluate prognostic quality of fungal and bacterial translocation markers in occurrence of episodes of febrile neutropenia of unknown origin
Time Frame: Between day 7-15
Between day 7-15
Evaluate prognostic quality of fungal and bacterial translocation markers in occurrence of episodes of febrile neutropenia in bacteremic patients
Time Frame: Between day 7-15
Between day 7-15
Compare bacterial and fungal translocation kinetics in febrile neutropenic patients of unknown origin versus bacteremic patients
Time Frame: Between day 7-15
Between day 7-15
Compare direct (16S rDNA, 18S rDNA) versus indirect (LBP, sCD14 and plasma zonulin) measures of translocation and association with bioclinical characteristics of the population
Time Frame: Between day 7-15
Between day 7-15
Describe the kinetics of markers and intestinal microbial phylogenetic compositions according to the bioclinical characteristics of the population
Time Frame: Between day 7-15
Diversity defined by number of different species and number of different taxonomic groups
Between day 7-15
Creation of biobank
Time Frame: end of study day 30
All blood and stool samples taken from patients who develop neutropenia. Patients who do not develop neutropenia will have their samples collected at inclusion destroyed
end of study day 30

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (ACTUAL)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
