Network to Understand Reproductive Rheumatology Registry

Study Purpose

The purpose of the NURTURE Registry is to enroll those who are pregnant and/or potentially capable of pregnancy. Participants will complete patient-reported surveys at enrollment and periodically prior to conception, during pregnancy, and following the completion of the study pregnancy. The study rheumatologist will provide the patient's diagnosis and record rheumatic disease activity at each clinic visit. Medication use, vital signs, and routine laboratory assessments will be collected throughout this period. Pregnancy, maternal, and infant outcomes will be obtained through the electronic medical record and from patient-reported surveys. This Registry will provide a rich data repository for research to improve pregnancy and birth outcomes for women with rheumatic diseases and will be used in on-going and future research to better understand the risk factors that are associated with poor pregnancy outcomes, including preterm birth, intrauterine growth restriction, and preeclampsia, as well as the effects of medication on disease management in pregnancy. Infant outcomes, medications, provider care, pregnancy planning, and social determinants of health on pregnancy and pregnancy outcomes will also be collected. The majority of the information collected in NURTURE, such as labs, disease activity, and medications, PRO's will originate from the EHR. Upon consent, participants will complete an enrollment survey that will include relevant patient reported measures. No study visits outside of routine care will occur. Participants may also complete a yearly survey about their reproductive health journey. The registry will be ongoing and will include periodic analysis of clinical data within this protocol. Additional analysis will be covered under seperate IRB approved protocols. Enrollment in the registry does not significantly increase the risk for a patient.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms	No
Study Type An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.	Observational [Patient Registry]
Eligible Ages	12 Years - 55 Years
Gender	Female

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Unable to provide informed consent.

Trial Details

Trial ID: This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.	NCT06940869
Phase Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

The purpose of the NURTURE Registry is to obtain information on those who are pregnant and/or potentially capable of pregnancy. This Registry will provide a rich data repository for research to improve pregnancy and birth outcomes for women with rheumatic diseases and will be used in on-going and future research to better understand the risk factors that are associated with poor pregnancy outcomes, including preterm birth, intrauterine growth restriction, and preeclampsia, as well as the effects of medication on disease management in pregnancy. Infant outcomes, medications, provider care, pregnancy planning, and social determinants of health on pregnancy and pregnancy outcomes will also be collected. Participation in NURTURE will be seamless with routine patient care. Any patient with a rheumatic disease seen by a participating site study provider as part routine care, and who could potentially become pregnant (females between the ages of 12 and 55), or who is currently pregnant, will be invited to participate in NURTURE. Participants will complete patient-reported surveys at enrollment and periodically prior to conception, during pregnancy, and following the completion of the study pregnancy. The study rheumatologist will provide the patient's diagnosis and record rheumatic disease activity at each clinic visit. Medication use, vital signs, and laboratory assessments will be collected as part of standard clinical care vistis and used in this registry. Pregnancy, maternal, and infant outcomes will be obtained through the electronic medical record and from patient-reported surveys. Prior to or at each standard of care (non-study, routine) visit, the patient will complete routine clinical questionnaires. This is a natural-history study and will not include medications, laboratory testing, or procedures outside of the standard of care. Management of the rheumatologic disease will be directed based on patient needs by the local rheumatologist and obstetrician. Enrollment in the registry will not dictate specific therapy.
