Machine learning to tell apart two rare diseases
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This trial uses computer models (machine learning) to help doctors better distinguish between two rare conditions that both cause high levels of a certain white blood cell (eosinophil). The goal is to make diagnosis faster and more accurate, which could lead to more targeted treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years of age or older.
- You have been diagnosed with either EGPA (a type of blood vessel inflammation) or HES (a syndrome with very high eosinophil levels).
- You can provide written consent, or have a friend or family member give assent if you have physical disabilities that prevent you from doing so.

This registry study looks at adults with high eosinophils (a type of immune cell) that are believed to be causing damage in the airways or lungs. It aims to better identify these eosinophils and understand what is going on so future treatments can improve.
This trial uses genetic testing to find the cause of rare kidney diseases. It is for people with unexplained kidney problems, a family history of kidney disease, or certain findings on ultrasound. The goal is to provide a more personalized diagnosis and see if this approach is cost-effective.
This trial tests a medicine called benralizumab for children with specific eosinophil-driven diseases (EGPA or HES). It aims to see if the drug can help control these conditions.
This trial studies different types of eosinophil cells in people with asthma, eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), or hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES). It also includes healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand these cells in each condition.
This study follows people with long-term high eosinophils (a type of white blood cell) and related conditions to learn how the illness changes over time. It helps doctors understand patterns of organ involvement and outcomes, which may improve future care.
This research study examines how eosinophils (a type of white blood cell) behave and function when they become abnormally high in the blood or tissues. Researchers want to understand these conditions better to potentially improve treatment options.
