Brief Summary

Infections represent the first cause of death and of morbidity in people treated for immunologic and inflammatory diseases with corticosteroids, immunosuppressive drugs or biotherapy. Epidemiological, clinical, biological and therapeutic determinants of these infections are poorly understood. There is no recommendation for the prevention and treatment of infections in this particular field. Purpose : Recent therapeutic trials evaluating immunosuppressive and biotherapy (cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, rituximab, belimumab) in the field of immunologic and inflammatory diseases have found a risk of severe infection of 7 to 18% during the first year after the beginning of the treatment. Thus, the main objective of the study is to describe the incidence and risk-factors for infections in people treated with such agents for immunologic and inflammatory diseases.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Viral, bacterila, fungal or parasitic infection leading to hospitalization

    30 months after the inclusion

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Biological and immunological markers

    Each 6 months from baseline for 30 months

  • Morbidity

    Each 6 months from baseline for 30 months

Study Arms (1)

Patient with immunologic and inflammatory diseases

Patient treated with corticosteroids, immunosuppressive drugs or biotherapy for immunologic and inflammatory diseases

Biological: Blood samples

Interventions

Blood samplesBIOLOGICAL

Systematic follow-up (M3, M6, M12, M18, M24, M30) will be implemented to complete epidemiologic, clinical, therapeutic and biological data during a 30 months period. Specific measure of immune cells, markers of immune activation, immunoglobulins as described above will be performed at M3, M6, M12 and M24. A biologic collection (serum and cells) will be performed at the same time points for future prognostic studies.
