Long-term follow-up and biobank for people with systemic granulomatosis

Official title: Cohort of Patients With Systemic Granulomatosis (Sarcoidosis and Other Systemic Granulomatoses) and Associated Biological Collection GRAMI-BIO Study

Run by University Hospital, Bordeaux · NCT06854848 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This project will follow adults with systemic granulomatosis and collect blood and urine samples to see how the disease progresses and to look for biological markers linked to severity and treatment response.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (18+) with histologically proven systemic granulomatosis who can give informed consent, are affiliated with social security, and are not currently receiving specific treatment for the condition are ideal candidates.

Probably not a fit

Participants with excluded infections (HIV, HBV, HCV), pregnant or breastfeeding women, people already on specific treatment, or those unable to consent may not benefit from this cohort, and individual participants should not expect direct therapeutic benefit because the project is observational.

What this trial studies

GRAMI-BIO is a prospective single-center cohort at Bordeaux University Hospital that will enroll about 150 adults with histologically proven systemic granulomatosis and follow them for up to ten years (five years of inclusion plus five years of follow-up). At scheduled visits the study will collect blood fractions (serum, plasma), urine, and DNA to create a biological bank for future research. Clinical data on disease course, treatments, and outcomes will be recorded to describe natural history and correlate clinical features with biological markers. Patients with active HIV, HBV, or HCV infection, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and those already on specific granulomatosis treatments are excluded.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the biobank and longitudinal data could help identify biomarkers and genetic factors that enable earlier diagnosis, predict disease course, and guide more personalized treatments.

How similar studies have gone: Previous cohort and biobank efforts in sarcoidosis and related granulomatous diseases have identified candidate biomarkers and genetic signals but have not yet produced definitive predictive tests, so this approach is established but still evolving.
