Prevalence of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Dysfunction in Pulmonary Emphysema
- Conditions
- Pulmonary Emphysema
- Interventions
- Other: Blood sampling
- Registration Number
- NCT02382367
- Lead Sponsor
- Hospices Civils de Lyon
- Brief Summary
The main objective of this trial is to evaluate the prevalence of alpha-1 antitrypsin quantitative and functional deficiency in an adult French population presenting with pulmonary emphysema. Phenotypic and genotypic studies will be carried whenever quantitative and/or functional deficiency will be displayed.

Group Intervention Description Pulmonary emphysema Blood sampling Blood tests (Alpha-1 antitrypsin protein measurement, elastase-inhibitory capacity of plasma measurement, phenotypic and genotypic studies)
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of patient with alpha-1 antitrypsin dysfunction Samples for evaluation of alpha-1 antitrypsin dysfunction will be performed the day of the patient enrollment Alpha-1 antitrypsin protein will be measured either on serum or plasma by standardized immunoassay. The elastase-inhibitory capacity of plasma will be evaluated by a functional test. The anti-elastase dysfunction of alpha-1 antitrypsin will be evaluated using both measurements.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Molecular genotyping of gene coding alpha-1 antitrypsin Samples for molecular genotyping will be performed the day of the patient enrollment For those patients who presented with either a functional or a quantitative dysfunction, we will look for genetic mutations in the gene coding the alpha-1 antitrypsin allowing the identification of specific genotype such as MM, MZ, MS, SS and SZ
Determination of alpha-1 antitrypsin protein phenotype Samples for phenotype analysis will be performed the day of the patient enrollment The determination of the alpha-1 antitrypsin protein phenotype may highlight genotype variants. The different known phenotypes are: Pi MM, Pi Z; Pi S, Pi SS, Pi SZ, Pi ZZ.
