Storing samples to improve infection research
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study creates a collection of blood and other samples from people with various infections. Researchers will use these samples to better understand infections and develop new ways to diagnose and treat them.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must have a diagnosed infection such as HIV, hepatitis, a lung infection, a urinary tract infection, a sexually transmitted infection, an infection of the brain or spinal cord, or an infection that affects people with weakened immune systems.
- You must be able to understand and sign a consent form agreeing to donate samples for research.
- You must be covered by a health insurance plan or state medical aid.

This study collects biological samples (like blood) from people who have been exposed to or infected with emerging infectious diseases. The goal is to help researchers learn more about these diseases and develop better treatments and vaccines.
This is an observational study that follows people to better understand how HIV and other infections (like sexually transmitted infections) happen and change over time. It may help researchers improve prevention and care, but it is mainly for monitoring rather than testing a new treatment.
This study collects extra blood or other biological samples from people who are already having routine tests, to learn more about how the body responds to infection—especially COVID-19. By taking part, you help researchers better understand the infection without any extra tests or procedures beyond the samples already being collected.
This study creates a bank of leftover blood and other samples from patients at two French hospitals. It helps researchers test new, faster ways to diagnose diseases.
This study looks for genetic reasons why some people get very serious infections. If you or a family member has had a rare, severe infection, researchers will analyze your DNA to find genes that might make you more vulnerable.
This study follows people with a very recent HIV infection and collects blood and other samples to learn more about the infection soon after it starts. It may help researchers better understand early HIV and improve future treatments.
