Amyloidosis Typing Using Mass Spectrometry-based Proteomics: a New Accurate Tool for Difficult Typing

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Amyloidosis
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Amyloidosis typing using mass spectrometry-based proteomics
Registration Number
NCT03984721
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Toulouse
Brief Summary

The main objective is to establish that a new technique of amyloidosis typing by Proteomics (based on nanoLC-MS/MS mass spectrometry) allows typing in \> 90% of observations in patients whose Amyloidosis is reported to have failed typing (impossible typing, uncertain or inconsistent) with the traditional anatomopathological approach, and this in a cohort of 40 patients identified consecutively in the Department of pathological anatomy and cytology of the University Hospital of Toulouse and included prospectively.
