Immune Regulation in Patients With Common Variable Immunodeficiency and Related Inborn Errors of Immunity (IEI)
NCT00001244 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This study aims to understand the causes and progression of Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID) and related inborn errors of immunity (IEI). These are conditions where the immune system does not function properly, leading to frequent infections and other complications such as gastrointestinal inflammation, lung and liver disease, autoimmune conditions, and an increased risk of certain cancers. By studying patients with CVI and related immune disorders, we hope to develop better ways to diagnose, treat, and prevent complications associated with these conditions. Patients diagnosed with CVID or related immune disorders must be referred by their physician and medical records reviewed by the study team to confirm eligibility to participate in this study. Once enrolled, participants will undergo various tests, including blood draws, physical exams, and imaging studies like CT scans to track changes over time. We may collect samples such as blood, urine, stool, or saliva for research purposes. If a surgical procedure or biopsy is performed because it is medically necessary, we may collect an additional sample for research testing. Family members of patients may be asked to provide blood samples for comparison. Some tests may be done remotely if participants or family members cannot travel to the study site. Who Can Participate * Patients diagnosed with CVI or related IEI, such as X-linked agammaglobulinemia, Blau Syndrome or Yao Syndrome. * Participants must be at least 2 years old. * Family members of patients may include parents, siblings, grandparents, children, aunts, uncles, and cousins. * Pregnant women already enrolled in the study will continue to participate, but new pregnant participants will not be enrolled. Potential Risks and Benefits * Risks: Blood draws may cause discomfort, bruising, or infection. Apheresis may cause dizziness, nausea, or muscle cramps; this procedure is to collect specific cells in the blood and is infrequently done on this proto

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT00001244
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT00001244 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as an unspecified phase, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 500 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), which has 1,295 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 4 conditions, with CVID appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 0 interventions. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT00001244 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Maryland. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
