Data and Sample Collection from Healthy Volunteers for Translational Research
This study collects various samples like blood, urine, and skin biopsies from healthy volunteers to support research that helps understand and develop new medical treatments.
Data Collection
Cohort
Tracking disease incidence in order to identify risk factors and understand disease progression over time.Summary
Study start date: December 9, 2004
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.This study aims to collect data and samples from healthy individuals to aid in research on eosinophilia and parasitic diseases. The study recruits healthy volunteers who meet specific eligibility criteria to donate samples like blood, urine, and other body fluids or tissues. The purpose of gathering these samples is to use them in laboratory research to better understand certain medical conditions. This research is important because it can help develop new treatments and improve understanding of diseases that have unmet medical needs. Healthy volunteers provide a control group, especially for conditions that require comparisons to individuals without asthma or allergies. Participants in this study are asked to undergo certain tests and donate samples using standard medical procedures. Tests may include non-invasive techniques like infrared thermography or a test to check the esophagus. Volunteers are fully informed about the nature of the study, including any risks or benefits, and they provide written consent before participating. Compensation is provided based on the time and any discomfort experienced during the donation process. The samples collected are only used for laboratory research, and each sample is labeled with a unique code to protect the donor's identity. The study ensures that all participants' rights and safety are protected following strict regulatory standards.
