An observational study in HHV6, Exanthema and Hemopathy, sponsored by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens. Completed at 1 site in France. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-06-12.
Sponsored by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens · Observational
To look for the replication of HHV6 by PCR in the skin, in these patients with haemopathies presenting an exanthema. This will make it possible to evaluate the prevalence of the positivity of this PCR in the skin. Then the investigator can investigate whether there is an association between the positivity of HHV6 PCR in the blood and / or skin and the viral etiology of the exanthema. If this association exists, it will make it possible to improve the diagnosis in the context of the exanthema and thus to improve the therapeutic management of these patients.
68 studies on the registry are indexed under Exanthema; 11 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 37 is below the median of 71 across 18 observational studies indexed under Exanthema.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.
Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.
