CERVCO is the French National Reference Centre for Rare Cerebrovascular and Retinal Diseases, accredited by the Ministry of Health since 2005. Since 2017, CERVCO has coordinated the MRVC cohort, a prospective cohort of patients with rare vascular diseases of the brain and retina, and established the associated B-MRVC biobank in 2020 to support translational research and biomarker discovery.
Due to the rarity and heterogeneity of these disorders, centralized longitudinal collection of clinical data and biological samples is essential to improve understanding of disease mechanisms, identify biomarkers of progression and prognosis, and facilitate the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
The present study aims to expand this longitudinal biobank, enable national and international collaborative research through controlled sample sharing, and establish reference control samples to support biomarker validation.
33 studies on the registry are indexed under CADASIL; 18 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 600 is above the median of 60 across 10 interventional studies indexed under CADASIL.

For the group of patients with MVCR:
Exclusion criteria :
Common exclusion criteria for patients and control subjects:
A person referred to in Articles L. 1121-5 to L. 1121-8 and L. 1122-12 of the Public Health Code, defined as:
Specific exclusion criteria for control subjects
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.
Short tests of memory and thinking, each scored out of 30. Lower scores suggest more difficulty; criteria give a range, either to include people with memory problems or to leave them out.
A “mini-stroke”: temporary stroke-like symptoms caused by reduced blood flow to part of the brain, spinal cord or eye, without signs of a new stroke on a scan.
Stroke symptoms need emergency care at once, even if they go away.
