Neurodevelopmental Disorder clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Characterization and Support for Neurodevelopmental Disorders Associated With Congenital Heart Defects

Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The leading cause of birth defects, Congenital Heart Defects (CHD) affect 12 million people worldwide and 41,000 newborns/year in Europe. It's a major cause of life-long morbidity and mortality, and a crucial public health issue. More than 50% of childs born with critical CHD will develop Neurodevelopmental Disorders (NDs), requiring specific care and impairing quality of life. NDs corresponds to early and lasting disturbances in cognitive, affective and behavioral development, linked to abnormalities in brain development. They are heterogeneous, affecting language, learning, motor skills, intellectual efficiency, social cognition, attention, memory and executive functions, and are associated with psychosocial difficulties (adaptive behavior, social interactions). This hidden handicap is the main long-term sequels of CHD, even before cardiovascular sequels, in individuals who often underwent multiple heart operations in early childhood. NDs concern not only complex CHD, but also simple CHD repaired in childhood and considered cured. The origin of TND associated with CHD is largely unknown. To date, few genetic or environmental causes have been clearly identified, but recent work has suggested that a common origin may link cardiac malformation and neurodevelopmental abnormality. The CATAMARAN - Pediatrics project is designed to detect potential neurodevelopmental delays associated with CHD as early as age 3, and to identify individual susceptibility factors involved in the occurrence of NDs in CHD children.
