DNER Ataxia
Conditions
Keywords
DNER antibodies, autoimmune cerebellar ataxia, Hodgkin lymphoma
Brief summary
Using a retrospective cohort of 34 patients with DNER ataxia, we will characterize clinical presentation, tumor associations, and outcomes.
Interventions
This is a non-interventional study involving clinical data and biological samples (DNA). Clinical data are collected for the center and samples are already stored in biobank repositories and collected as part of good clinical practice in the diagnostic process of patients with suspected autoimmune encephalitis, meaning that the standard diagnostic and therapeutic approaches will not be altered in the selected study population. Patients have already gave explicit written consent for biological specimens sampling and storage at the Centre de Ressources Biologiques des Hospices Civils de Lyon (CRB-HCL) (including tissue, cells or biological fluids) and genetic analysis for research purposes. Additionally, patients will be informed about the present study.
