Bio Specimen Resource (Bio bank) for Biliary Tract Disorders

Overview

Información sobre este estudio

The aims of this proposal are to establish a Biorepository of specimens collected from patients with biliary tract disorders undergoing endoscopic procedures such as ERCP, which would allow development of research studies aimed at investigating molecular biomarkers and changes in the biliary composition and microbiome in patients with biliary tract diseases. Ultimately, the goal would be to identify biomarkers that would guide clinicians toward an improved ability to more effectively diagnosis or treat these conditions.

Elegibilidad para la participación

Los requisitos de elegibilidad de los participantes incluyen la edad, el sexo, el tipo y el estadio de la enfermedad, y los problemas de salud o tratamientos previos. Las pautas difieren de un estudio a otro e identifican quiénes pueden o no pueden participar. No hay garantía de que cada persona elegible que desee participar en un ensayo se inscribirá. Comunícate con el equipo del estudio para analizar la elegibilidad del estudio y la posible participación.

Patients with biliary tract diseases necessitating and endoscopic procedure will give written consent prior to commencement of the procedure. 

The consent form will be provided to patients prior to the procedure, either during clinic visits in preparation for the endoscopic procedure, or prior to the endoscopy, while patient is receiving pre-procedure counseling and being prepped in the endoscopy suite holding area.

Will also consider enrolling hospitalized subjects who lack consent capacity and who require endoscopic therapy for biliary tract disease. These patients usually present with acute cholangitis and sepsis, thus with altered mental status or on mechanical ventilation and endotracheal intubation. Collection of biliary samples in this particular subset of patients will be very important for the study of biliary tract conditions related to infection, and thus, will be included in the study.

Pediatric participants:

Not applicable at Mayo Clinic in Florida as only adult patients are treated.
