Systematic Screening for Primary Immunodeficiencies in Patients Hospitalized for Severe Infections in Intensive Care. (DIPREA)

October 11, 2021 updated by: University Hospital, Montpellier

Systematic Screening for Primary Immunodeficiencies in Patients Hospitalized for Severe Infections in Intensive Care : DIPREA

Currently about 90 cases of infection in children are reported every year in pediatric intensive care, a disease considered to be the main cause of hospitalization of children. 16% of invasive pneumococcal infections are linked to a genetic abnormality in immunity. Herpetic encephalitis has become a model of genetic infectious disease, with new mutations identified in the TLR3 pathway. Severe infections are no longer the result of chance and can be the way to reveal a primary immune deficiency. In this context, the investigators propose to evaluate the incidence of hereditary immune deficiency after a systematic immunological screening in children admitted for a severe infection in pediatric intensive care unit (ICU).

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.

Detailed Description

Severe infection requiring admission in intensive care unit (ICU) are not so rare. A retrospective pilot study conducted at Montpellier University Hospital Center (UHC) between 2013 and 2015 showed that 19.7% of the pediatric ICU admissions were related to a severe infection. An isolated severe infectious episode could be related to a hereditary immune deficiency (HID), even though there are no history of recurrent clinical signs and biological stigmata. For example, Gaschignard and colleagues considered that 16% of the invasive pneumococcal infections are related to a genetic defect of immunity (doi: 10.1093/cid/ciu274). Growing evidence has shown that severe infectious diseases occurring in childhood are attributed to inborn errors of immunity (doi: 10.1073/pnas.1521651112). While the nosology of severe infections has strong links to inherited immune deficiency that are rare diseases affecting less than 1 birth / 5000, there are no prospective studies that assessed the incidence of primary immune deficiencies in children who presented a severe infection.

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 month to 16 years (Child)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Pediatric population

Description

Inclusion criteria:

  • Subject aged 1 month to 16 years.
  • Admission in pediatric ICU for more than 24h.
  • Documented severe infection (bacterial, viral, fungal).
  • Child benefiting from a social security scheme.
  • Collection of parental consent / legal representatives.

Exclusion criteria:

  • Prematurity (gestational age <37 weeks of gestation) up to 6 months of age.

Design Details

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
Immunological abnormalities
Time Frame: 1 day
Immunological abnormalities : based on the screening test
1 day

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
Diagnosis of primary immunodeficiency
Time Frame: 1 day
Diagnosis of primary immunodeficiency
1 day

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.

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.
