Blood and tissue sample collection for rare autoimmune nerve diseases
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study collects biological samples (like blood or other specimens) from people with rare neurological conditions that may involve the immune system. Your samples may help researchers better understand these diseases.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a neurological condition (in the brain or nerves) that may involve autoimmune (immune-related) causes
- You can be an adult or a child
- Your health insurance/social coverage is up to date
- Your neurological problem is not due to damage that clearly is not autoimmune
- Your hemoglobin is not low (not known anemia, and hemoglobin is at least 10 g/dL)
- If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you cannot join

This study collects information from people with autoimmune encephalitis or related nerve/brain disorders, using blood and sometimes spinal fluid. It helps researchers better understand these conditions, which may guide future diagnosis and treatments.
This trial collects clinical and lab information (like blood and medical history) from people with rare autoimmune diseases, especially when symptoms are unusual. It aims to better understand what causes these illnesses and how newer treatments may help.
This study collects and stores biological samples (a “biobank”) from people with autoimmune cytopenia, so researchers can learn more about the condition. If you qualify, your samples may help future studies and improve care, and it’s based on voluntary consent.
This study collects skin samples and medical information from people with skin conditions caused by their immune system. It helps researchers better understand these diseases and develop new treatments.
This study collects blood and tissue samples from patients with rare immune system diseases that started in childhood, and from their relatives and healthy volunteers. The goal is to build a biocollection for future research to better understand these diseases.
This study looks at blood “auto-antibodies,” which are immune proteins that may attack the body, in people with certain brain and nerve conditions. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and how the immune system is involved.
