Summary

The main objective of this study is to determine if a doubling of serum TARC (compared to baseline) is associated with the occurrence of exacerbations of ABPA.

The secondary objectives of the study are :

1. To investigate if induced sputum eosinophils count (compared to baseline) is associated with the occurrence of exacerbations.
2. To examine if the exhaled NO (compared to a baseline) is associated with the occurrence of exacerbations.
3. To investigate if activation of circulating T cells (compared to a baseline) is associated with the occurrence of exacerbations.
4. To examine if the rate of specific Asp f IgG measured by ELISA (compared to a baseline) is associated with the occurrence of exacerbations.
5. To determine if the variation of one of the markers above, TARC or Asp f specific IgE measured at baseline, may be associated with the radiological stage of the disease (ABPA-S, ABPA-CB, ABPA-ORF).
6. To investigate if there is a link between fungal exposure at home (visually assessed by the contamination level and the proportion of positive samples for Asp. f) and the frequency of exacerbations.
7. To establish if some of the clinical, functional or biological data studied are associated with the frequency of exacerbations.

Study of predictive factors

Phase 1 : Inclusion of patients (V0) : In the case of a participation agreement, data on age, profession, previous history, history of the disease and current treatments will be collected. Different tests will be performed at this visit. Phase 2 : Determination of the baseline (V1) : Patients will be reviewed one month after V0 (V1). In the absence of exacerbation between V0 and V1, the examinations performed in routine practice will be used to determine the basic state of biological parameters of interest. During this visit, different tests will be performed. Phase 3 : Quarterly monitoring of patients (V2-V9) : Patients will be followed every three months for 2 years (V2-V9).
