Recruiting studies in Maryland
- NCT04097561RecruitingPhase 1
Belimumab safety study for low CD4 counts and autoantibodies
This Phase 1 study tests how safe belimumab is for people with idiopathic CD4 lymphopenia (low protective white blood cells) and signs of autoantibodies. It aims to learn whether the treatment is tolerable and could be a future option for people with this immune condition.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–70 - NCT04052022Recruiting
Study of TB flare-ups in people without HIV
This study looks at why some people with tuberculosis (TB) get worse or develop new inflammation after they initially start improving on treatment—called a “paradoxical reaction.” It collects blood and tissue samples to better understand these flare-ups and guide future care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT03937817Recruiting
Donate samples to study globin gene variants
This study collects common body samples to learn how different globin gene variants work and how they relate to health. Your samples may also be used later for new research, including genetic testing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–70 - NCT03949855RecruitingPhase 2
Belimumab plus rituximab for primary membranous nephropathy
This study tests whether adding belimumab to rituximab helps people with primary membranous nephropathy (a kidney disease) that has the right blood test marker and specific protein levels. The goal is to improve kidney outcomes and reduce disease activity while keeping treatment safe.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT03878121RecruitingPhase 1
Ad4-HIV vaccine study for healthy adults and partners
This Phase 1 study tests whether an experimental HIV vaccine (made from a harmless viral vector) is safe and helps the body build immune defenses. It includes healthy volunteers and, in some groups, their close partners, with careful screening and follow-up visits.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT03538600Recruiting
Sample collection from healthy volunteers to improve test accuracy

Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–80 - NCT03109288RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Biomarker-guided combination treatment for residual multiple sclerosis activity
This early-phase study tests combination treatments for multiple sclerosis (MS) based on lab “biomarkers” found in the spinal fluid. It aims to reduce ongoing MS activity and help determine which treatment combinations may work best for different people.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT03206099Recruiting
Genetic testing study for people linked to other NIH research
This study collects and sequences (reads) your DNA to help researchers understand health and disease. You may be invited because you are connected to another NIH study, and you must agree to testing, sample storage, and sharing de-identified genetic data for future research.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 day–100 years - NCT03167437RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Vorinostat for uncontrolled Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis
This early-phase study tests vorinostat to reduce gut inflammation in people with moderate-to-severe Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, or certain colitis patterns linked to chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). It also looks at whether the study’s consent process is clear and understood before starting treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT02974595Recruiting
Study of rare inflammatory conditions to learn what causes them
This study follows people with rare “autoinflammatory” conditions and sometimes their blood relatives to understand why symptoms happen and how they change over time. It may help by improving diagnosis and care for these conditions, using stored samples and genetic testing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges Up to 99 years - NCT02511002Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up after an influenza challenge study
This study keeps track of how your body’s immune responses change over time after an influenza exposure. Researchers may use stored blood samples to study specific antibody levels, which could help improve future flu vaccines or treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT02190266Recruiting
Study genetics and cause of hard-to-treat Valley fever
This study looks at why “Valley fever” is difficult to treat or has spread beyond the lungs, and how a person’s genetics may be involved. You may be asked for blood or other samples for genetic testing and for storing samples for future research.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–100 - NCT02639299Recruiting
Screening healthy adults for malaria vaccines and drug studies
This study screens healthy adults to see who can join future malaria vaccine or investigational malaria drug studies, including a controlled malaria exposure. It may help researchers test safer vaccines/drugs, but participation requires good health and strict medical eligibility.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–50 - NCT02257892Recruiting
Study of rare immune system genetic disorders
This study looks for genetic causes of immune problems, such as unusually frequent infections, abnormal allergies, or autoimmune or inflammation conditions. It may help by improving how doctors understand these disorders and by matching families with possible genetic diagnoses.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–99 - NCT01386424Recruiting
Healthy adult check-in for future infectious-disease volunteer studies
This study enrolls healthy adults to help set up future research studies about infectious diseases. If you qualify, you may be asked to join later “healthy volunteer” experiments and allow your samples to be stored for future research.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT01306019RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for children with severe immune deficiency (XSCID)
This trial tests a one-time gene therapy approach to help children with X-linked SCID (a serious inherited immune disorder) make better immune cells. It’s for people who don’t have a fully matched sibling donor and need long-term follow-up after treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–50 - NCT01306084Recruiting
Study of viral infections in healthy and immune-compromised people
This trial studies how viruses affect the body, and how the immune system responds, in both healthy people and people with weakened immunity. It may include people who currently have a suspected or recent viral infection, close contacts, people around the time of a viral vaccine, and healthy adults used for comparison.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 6 months–120 years - NCT01375530Recruiting
Volunteers needed for future medical research testing
This trial is looking for adult volunteers who agree to have blood and/or tissue samples collected and stored for later studies. It may help researchers better understand the immune system and future treatments, although it is mainly a sample-storage study rather than a specific drug treatment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–60 - NCT02015013RecruitingPhase 2
Blood cell collection study for immune system disorders
This study collects blood-forming cells from people with low CD4 counts and healthy volunteers to learn how the immune system works. It may help researchers better understand and treat conditions like idiopathic CD4 lymphocytopenia.

What taking part in a allergy study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
