Filter by:Autoinflammatory diseases (AID) are clinical entities characterized by recurrent inflammatory attacks in absence of infection, neoplasm or deregulation of the adaptive immune system. Among them, hereditary periodic syndromes, also known as monogenic AID, represent the prototype of this disease group, caused by mutations in genes involved in the regulation of innate immunity, inflammation and cell death. Based on recent experimental acquisitions in the field of monogenic AID, several immunologic disorders have been reclassified as polygenic/multifactorial AID, sharing pathogenetic and clinical features with hereditary periodic fevers. This has paved the way to new treatment targets for patients suffering from rare diseases of unknown origin, including Behçet's disease, Still disease, Schnitzler's disease, PFAPA (periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis and cervical adenitis) syndrome, chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO), non-infectious uveitis and scleritis. Gathering information on such rare conditions is made difficult by the small number of patients, along with the difficulty of obtaining an accurate diagnosis in non-specialized clinical settings. In this context, the AIDA project promotes international collaboration among clinical centres to develop a permanent registry aimed at collecting demographic, genetic, clinical and therapeutic data of patients affected by monogenic and polygenic AID, in order to expand the current knowledge of these rare conditions.
Behçet's disease (BD) is a systemic vasculitis that affects, especially, young people. Although its etiology remains unexplained, data suggest that the inflammatory response during BD results from a disruption of the homeostasis of innate and adaptive immune responses in genetically predisposed people. The microbiota could play a triggering role in BD, in particular the salivary and dental plaque microbiota. The aim of the Behçetbiot study is therefore to establish microbial profiles of dental plaque, pathological (on the mouth ulcer) and non-pathological mucous membrane, salivary and digestive and to compare them with control subjects not suffering from BD, related to the first degree, of the same socio-cultural level and to determine whether dysbiosis is correlated with a local and systemic pro-inflammatory response, by measuring salivary level of pro-inflammatory cytokines and blood level of CRP, fibrinogen, orosomucoïd and haptoglobin, and to compare them with controls.
Assessment of structural changes that occur in large extracranial and intracranial arteries in patients with Behcet's disease
An observational study aiming to assess the serological profile of SARS-Cov2 patients with systemic diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjogren syndrome, sarcoidosis, inflammatory myopathies, Behçet's disease, Rheumatoid arthritis and Spondyloarthritis
The aim of this study is to estimate the efficacy of apremilast compared to placebo in the treatment of oral ulcers in pediatric participants from 2 to < 18 years of age with oral ulcers associated with Behçet's disease (BD) through week 12.
To facilitate clinical, basic science, and translational research projects involving the study of rheumatic diseases.
Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) most often affect young patients and have high impact on morbidity and mortality with a significant alteration in the quality of life of patients with professional, social and emotional repercussions. Beyond this burden, IMIDs share many common pathophysiological mechanisms and treatments, known as "targeted therapies". Despite progress in this field, much remains to be done in clinical, therapeutic and fundamental research to address the efficacy, resistance and side-effects of treatment. These similarities between IMIDs have led the FHU IMMINeNT to propose the creation of a prospective, multidisciplinary clinical-biological database (IMMINeNT cohort), associated to a biobank, of patients with IMIDs. The main objectives of this database will be to identify new prognostic and therapeutic biomarkers in order to develop new therapeutic targets and biomarkers, to identify prognostic factors and determinants related to the activity, severity and quality of life of patients with IMIDs as well as to the response and tolerance to treatment.
To identify biomarkers of common eye diseases based on single-cell sequencing technologies using PBMC samples. These diseases include uveitis, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration and polypoid choroidal vasculopathy. Our study may provide new insight into the underlying mechanisms, and reveal novel predictors and intervention targets for the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of these diseases.
Patients diagnosed with Behcet's disease will be randomized to administeration of hydroxychloroquine. Assessment will be done for the patients at baseline and every one month in the first three months and then quarterly for one year.
Behçet's Disease (BD) is a chronic, inflammatory, rheumatic disease that is characterized by mucocutaneous lesions. Promoting physical activity level is one of the major goals in the management of patients with rheumatic diseases, it is important to determine the factors affecting physical activity level and exercise barriers. The aim of this study is to investigate physical activity level and exercise barriers in patients with BD. Physical activity level, exercise barriers, disease activity, fatigue, depression, pain, sleep disorders, aerobic capacity and quality of life will be assessed using International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ),Exercise Benefits/Barriers Scale, Behçet Disease Current Activity Form (BDCAF), Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), McGill Pain Questionnaire- Short Form (MPQ-SF), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, 6 minute walk test and Behçet's Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire, respectively.
