October 24, 2021 updated by: Chang Gung Memorial Hospital
A study of the relation between genetic biomarkers and child language development in Taiwan.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access 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.

Detailed Description

The interaction between gene and environment (G×E) can be a very complicated process that influences child development. As a pilot study of child development biomarkers, this study investigates genes related to child language development and language disorder.

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.

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.

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
Scores of cognitive function 1
Time Frame: baseline
Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development (Scores from 0 to 140, higher scores mean a better outcome.)
baseline
Scores of cognitive function (2 y/o to 6 y/o)
Time Frame: baseline
Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence (Scores from 0 to 200, higher scores mean a better outcome.)
baseline
Scores of cognitive function (6 y/o to 16 y/o)
Time Frame: baseline
Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (Scores from 0 to 200, higher scores mean a better outcome.)
baseline
Scores of cognitive function 3
Time Frame: baseline
Test of Nonverbal Intelligence-Fourth Edition (Scores from 0 to 60, higher scores mean a better outcome.)
baseline
Scores of language function 1
Time Frame: baseline
Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-Revised (Scores from 0 to 124, higher scores mean a better outcome.)
baseline
Scores of language function 2
Time Frame: baseline
Preschool Language Impaired Scale(PLS)/Language Impaired Scale(LS) (PLS: Scores from 0 to 65, higher scores mean a better outcome. LS: Scores from 0 to 73, higher scores mean a better outcome.)
baseline
Scores of general development
Time Frame: baseline
Comprehensive Developmental Inventory for Infants and Toddlers (Higher scores mean a better outcome.)
baseline
Gene test 1
Time Frame: baseline
Microarray (Use Axiom Genome-Wide TWB 2.0 Array Plate (TWB 2.0) to analyze SNPs of disease-related biomarkers.)
baseline
Gene test 2
Time Frame: baseline
Whole-Exome Sequencing (Use Burrows-Wheeler Aligner (BWA) 85, Samtools86, Picard, Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK) to screen out the variant discovery and genotyping.)
baseline

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
Scores of participation(2-5 y/o)
Time Frame: baseline
Assessment of Preschool Children's Participation (Scores from 0 to 45, higher scores mean a better outcome.)
baseline
Scores of participation(>6 y/o)
Time Frame: baseline
Children Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment and Preferences for Activity of Children (Higher scores mean a better outcome.)
baseline
Scores of activities
Time Frame: baseline
Functional Independence Measure for Children (Scores from 18 to 126, higher scores mean a better outcome.)
baseline
Scores of quality of life
Time Frame: baseline
Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory TM (Scores from 0 to 102, higher scores mean a better outcome.)

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.
August 20, 2020

Primary Completion (ANTICIPATED)

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.
July 31, 2023

Study Completion (ANTICIPATED)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
