the main objectives are 1. to study the pathophysiological role of KIR3DL2 in axSpA and its relationship with Th17 immunity in HLA-B27 + and HLA-B27- patients and 2. to assess the effect on the pro-inflammatory immune response of a cytotoxic monoclonal antibody IPH4102 (anti-KIR3DL2) in these patients. The study will be carried out on blood samples from 24 patients with axSpA, 12 HLA-B27 + and 12 HLA-B27-, without any drug injection nor direct therapeutic benefit for the participating patients and 12 healthy controls.
