Coagulopathy of Immunodermatologic Diseases

May 8, 2026 updated by: University of Nebraska

Coagulopathy of Immunodermatologic Diseases The Molecular, Prognostic, and Therapeutic Implications of Crosstalk Between Coagulation, Fibrinolysis, and Inflammation in Immune-Mediated Skin Diseases

This study will examine the coagulation and fibrinolysis profiles of those with autoimmune skin diseases. Blood samples will be collected from participants with active/poorly controlled immune-mediated skin diseases and mild/latent/well-controlled immune-mediated skin diseases. A one-time sample from 15 general dermatology outpatients who do not have a known or suspected diagnosis of bullous diseases, immune-mediated dermatologic condition, or cutaneous malignancy will also be collected to serve as control. Blood samples from both participant populations will be analyzed for coagulation and inflammatory markers and compared. The results of this study may help inform future studies on the utility of analyzing coagulation and fibrinolysis profiles of patients with autoimmune skin diseases.

Study Overview

Status

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to examine the coagulation and fibrinolysis profiles of those with autoimmune skin diseases. This will be accomplished by collecting blood samples from participants with both active/poorly controlled immune-mediated skin diseases and mild/latent/well-controlled immune-mediated skin diseases. A one-time sample will be collected from 15 general dermatology outpatients who do not have a known or suspected diagnosis of bullous diseases, immune-mediated dermatologic condition, or cutaneous malignancy to serve as the control population. Blood samples from both participant populations will be analyzed for coagulation and inflammatory markers and compared. The results of this study may help inform future studies on the utility of analyzing coagulation and fibrinolysis profiles of patients with autoimmune skin diseases.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients seen at University of Nebraska Medical Center diagnosed with autoimmune bullous disease and patients without a autoimmune bullous disease.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. For the study group: diagnosis of immune-mediated skin disease including but not limited to bullous pemphigoid, pemphigus vulgaris, mucous membrane pemphigoid, cutaneous lupus erythematosus, dermatomyositis
  2. For control group: no diagnosis of immune-mediated skin
  3. For study group: receiving care from one or more of the Principal or Secondary Investigators

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Unfit to provide consent
  2. P2Y12 inhibitor use in the past 4 weeks
  3. History of internal malignancy prior to enrolling in the study or suspected internal/systemic malignancy during time of the study (i.e. will not exclude pre-malignant or local, early stage cutaneous malignancies)
  4. Major surgery within 4 weeks of the study or trauma (e.g., accident-causing bone fracture) within 4 weeks of the study
  5. Other autoimmune diseases not in remission defined as flare in the last 12 weeks
  6. If patient is unable to provide detailed history and if we do not have sufficient history on record.
  7. Less than 19 years of age

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Immune-mediated condition
Participants with an immune-mediated condition
Diagnostic test: Blood Draw
Standard coagulation assays (aPTT, INR, ACT), viscoelastic coagulation profiles (rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM)/thromboelastography (TEG), tPA-challenged ROTEM/TEG), and molecular profiling
Without immune-mediated dermatologic condition
Participants without an immune-mediated dermatologic condition
Diagnostic test: Blood Draw
Standard coagulation assays (aPTT, INR, ACT), viscoelastic coagulation profiles (rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM)/thromboelastography (TEG), tPA-challenged ROTEM/TEG), and molecular profiling

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Thromboelastography
Time Frame: 2 years
Thromboelastography is a viscoelastic hemostatic assay that measures the global viscoelastic properties of whole blood clot formation under low shear stress.
2 years
tPA-challenged Thromboelastography
Time Frame: 2 years
Tests patients blood resistance to tPA-mediated clot lysis.
2 years
Activated partial thromboplastin time
Time Frame: 2 years
Activated partial thromboplastin time measures the length of time (in seconds) that it takes for clotting to occur when specific reagents are added to plasma.
2 years
International normalized ratio
Time Frame: 2 years
International Normalized Ratio is a measure of how long it takes your blood to clot.
