Active clinical trials for "Immunologic Deficiency Syndromes"

This is a safety study to evaluate the risk of low blood pressure in subjects with Primary Immune Deficiency disorder (PID) treated with Bivigam™ or another commercial product under real world conditions. No study medication will be provided to subjects in this study. Study physicians will make all treatment decisions according to their usual practice and will provide prescriptions for his/her subjects, as appropriate. The only addition is the collection and structured documentation of data generated through usual practice.

Background: - Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an immunodeficiency disease in which white blood cells are unable to kill certain bacteria and fungi. People with CGD are more likely to develop recurrent life-threatening infections. Certain changes or mutations in genes contribute to the severity of CGD, and also appear to affect the success of treatment with interferon-gamma, a substance that is used to improve the immune system s ability to fight infection. Researchers are interested in studying changes in the immune system caused by interferon-gamma treatment of CGD in individuals with different mutations that cause CGD. Objectives: - To compare changes in the immune system caused by interferon-gamma treatment for CGD in individuals with different mutations that cause CGD. Eligibility: - Individuals of any age who have been diagnosed with CGD and have specific types of mutations that cause CGD (to be determined after testing). Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical examination, and blood and urine tests. Participants must weigh more than 11 kilograms (~24 pounds) to participate in the study. Participants will receive injections of interferon-gamma once weekly for 4 weeks, twice weekly for 4 weeks, and then three times weekly for 4 weeks (a total of 24 injections). Blood will be drawn periodically during treatment and for 8 weeks after the treatment, for a total of 21 weeks on the study. Participants will regularly provide information on their symptoms and responses to treatment to the study researchers.

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of rilpivirine (RPV)-based regimen in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infected, antiretroviral (ARV) treatment-naive participants, as determined by the percentage of virologic responders defined as having HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) less than 400 copies/ milliliter (mL) at Week 24.

The purpose of this study is to understand the immune response to coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) vaccination in patients on B-cell depleting therapies (BCDT) over time, which in the future may help to inform clinical decision making in this patient population.

Multicentre national cohort study with prospective data collection and biological specimen collection. Ancillary study in this cohort : pediatric cohort with participants from 5 to 17 years old. Enrollment complete for adult cohort. Active recruting for ancillary pediatric cohort.

This is a study of immunocompromised individuals who have received or plan to receive a drug called EVUSHELD. This study is looking at any serious adverse events that might happen after receiving EVUSHELD, the levels of EVUSHELD in participant's blood, blood antibody levels, neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19), and other blood responses related to the immune system and COVID-19. Investigators are collecting blood and may also collect other samples such as nose swabs, oral swabs, or saliva.

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability and steady-state PK and confirm the dose of EVG/r in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment-experienced children 4 weeks to <18 years of age. The study consists of 2 parts: Part A and Part B. Part A will enroll participants with suppressed viremia (HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL) or failing a current antiretroviral (ARV) regimen (HIV-1 RNA > 1,000 copies/mL only for participants in Cohort 2, Part A) to evaluate the steady state PK and confirm the dose of EVG. Part B will enroll participants who are failing a current ARV regimen (HIV-1 RNA > 1,000 copies/mL) to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of EVG. The study consists of 4 age cohorts with each cohort including 2 parts (Part A and Part B) with the exception of the adolescent age cohort (Cohort 1: 12 to < 18 years old) containing Part B only.

This is an investigator-initiated, two-year, randomized, controlled, single-center, open-label, pilot study comparing 3-drug highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) to 3-drug HAART plus raltegravir for persons with acute and early HIV-1 infection. The study will test the hypothesis that use of the integrase inhibitor raltegravir (400 mg BID orally) to inhibit the integration step of the HIV-1 life cycle in conjunction with HAART in subjects with recently acquired HIV-1 infection will decrease the number of HIV-1 infected CD4+ T-cells to a greater extent than a 3-drug HAART regimen.

This is a study to assess the response of lopinavir/ritonavir plus maraviroc (with no nucleoside medications) in HIV patients failing their initial antiviral therapy.

The primary purpose is to determine the ability of CD34+ selection and T cell depletion using the CliniMACS® device to prevent severe acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients receiving a stem cell transplant from an alternative (unrelated and mismatched related) donor. The secondary objectives include evaluation of engraftment, immune recovery, and post-transplant infections. Patients requiring stem cell transplants for either malignant (cancerous) or non-malignant disease will be included in the study. The recipients will be grouped into one of two groups based on whether the donor is mismatched related (Cohort A) or unrelated (Cohort B). The patient will receive a conditioning regimen including chemotherapy drugs and/or total body irradiation based on the disease for which the transplant is performed.
