Serum Biomarkers for Portal Hypertension in Cirrhosis (Pan-CHESS1802)

August 16, 2021 updated by: Xiaolong Qi, Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University

Serum Biomarkers Associated With Endothelial Dysfunction and Immune Inflammation for Portal Hypertension in Cirrhosis (Pan-CHESS1802)

This is a prospective, multi-center diagnostic trial conducted at 6 liver centers in China designed to study the correlation between serum biomarkers associated with endothelial dysfunction and immune inflammation and hepatic venous pressure gradient in cirrhosis.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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.

Detailed Description

Hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is the gold standard for assessing portal pressure, of which the measurement is invasive and therefore not suitable for routine clinical practice. The detection of serum biomarkers is potential for noninvasive diagnosis of portal hypertension in cirrhosis. However, many are still in the exploratory phases of testing and are not yet ready to enter clinical practice. This study prospectively enrolled participants in 6 liver centers (Beijing YouAn Hospital, Shandong Provincial Hospital, Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Xingtai People's Hospital, and 302 Hospital of PLA) in China designed to study the correlation between serum biomarkers associated with endothelial dysfunction and immune inflammation and HVPG in cirrhosis.

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

18 years to 75 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Cirrhotic portal hypertension

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • age 18-75 years;
  • confirmed cirrhosis based on histologic examination of liver or combined physical, laboratory, and radiologic findings, including a nodular surface, a coarse texture, and an enlarged caudate lobe of the liver.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • prior drug therapy (e.g. β-blocker, vasopressin) within two weeks

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

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.
