Genetic Susceptibility Factors for Candidemia.

March 25, 2021 updated by: University Hospital, Lille

Genetic Susceptibility Factors Involved in Candidemia: Case-control Study.

This is a prospective case-control physiopathological study, which main objective is to determine the genetic host factors predisposing to candidemia. Secondary objectives are to develop new diagnosis tools using the biological collection, to describe and update epidemiology, to analyse the influence of genetic polymorphisms on prognosis.

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Candidemia patients
These patients are included in the study after the reception of a positive blood culture for Candida sp.
An analysis of the SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphism) of 25 candidate genes will be performed. This analysis will be completed by a genome wide association study.
Control patients

These patients are matched on case patients on the following criteria:

  • Age+/-5 years
  • length of hospitalisation
  • type of ward
  • type of surgery for surgical patients
  • IGS2 for intensive care patients
An analysis of the SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphism) of 25 candidate genes will be performed. This analysis will be completed by a genome wide association study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Frequency of the polymorphisms between the groups
Time Frame: In the 48-72 hours following the positive blood culture
In the 48-72 hours following the positive blood culture
