Bethesda, MarylandAges 3 years+ - NCT00404560Recruiting
Blood tests to study infection risk and immune problems
This study looks at how the immune system works in people who have—or might have—an increased risk of infections. It also enrolls their healthy blood relatives so researchers can compare immune features; results may help doctors understand who is at higher risk and why.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 month–100 years - NCT00018044Recruiting
Understanding Immune Defects in Mycobacterial Infections
This research study aims to better understand why some people develop unusual bacterial infections (mycobacterial infections) that don't respond well to standard treatments. Researchers will examine your immune system and may study family members to identify genetic factors that increase infection risk.
Bethesda, MarylandAges Up to 100 years - NCT05656378Recruiting
Storing samples to study how the body interacts with microbes
This study creates a storage bank of biological samples like blood, stool, and tissue. Researchers will use these samples to learn how the body interacts with the natural microbes that live in and on us, which may help improve treatments for many diseases.
Bethesda, MarylandAges Any age - NCT00028080Recruiting
Evaluation and treatment for active Lyme disease
This study evaluates and treats people who currently have active Lyme disease, as defined by CDC criteria. It aims to provide expert care and follow-up while studying the disease.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–99 - NCT00001230Recruiting
Understanding How Your Body Responds to Filarial Infection
This study looks at how the body's immune system reacts to filarial infections—parasitic worms that affect millions worldwide. Researchers will observe your infection and response to treatment to better understand the disease and improve future care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–100 - NCT01132859Recruiting
Study of how immune cells respond in adults
This study looks at how your body’s immune system reacts in different tissues by collecting and storing samples for research. You might be able to join if you’re an adult and can consent, and if you don’t have certain bleeding risks that could make sample collection unsafe.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT00557726Recruiting
Evaluation and care for inflammatory or infectious illnesses
This trial helps doctors evaluate possible infection or inflammation and decide on the best management plan. You may be able to receive specialized care at the NIH if the study team thinks your situation fits.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–100 - NCT00789009Recruiting
Monitoring people with known or suspected HIV infection
This study tests how well researchers can track HIV-related health and immune changes over time by collecting blood and other samples. It may help you and your care team by creating detailed monitoring, even if your HIV diagnosis is new or still being evaluated.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT00114647Recruiting
Blood draw to collect plasma or white blood cells for lab tests
This trial uses a special blood-removal procedure called apheresis to collect either plasma or white blood cells for laboratory research. It may help scientists understand infection or immune-related processes by providing specific blood components for study.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - 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.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–60 - NCT00867269Recruiting
Study of causes and progression of low CD4 blood cells
This study looks for what causes and how idiopathic low CD4 cells happen over time, using blood and tissue samples. It may help doctors learn why this occurs and how to better track people with it.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT00091871Recruiting
Understanding familial high eosinophil disease in families
This study follows families with a genetic condition that causes high levels of white blood cells called eosinophils. Researchers want to understand how the disease develops and changes over time to help predict who may get worse and how to treat it better.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1–100 - NCT02504853Recruiting
Study food allergy patterns and genetics over time
This study follows people with food allergy and some closely related or healthy people to learn how food allergy (and related conditions) develops over time. It may help researchers find causes and better ways to predict and treat food allergy.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 day–99 years - NCT05463133RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell transplant for CGD using targeted medications and steroids-free support
This trial tests an intensive stem cell transplant approach for people with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). The study aims to improve outcomes by preparing the body for a donor stem cell graft and using immune “brakes” to reduce immune problems.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4–65 - 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 - NCT04864886Recruiting
Study how immune-related conditions affect metabolism
This study collects blood and other samples to see how the immune system changes “metabolism” (how your body uses energy) in people with immune-related conditions. Your samples may also be stored for future research and could help researchers better understand immune health.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT04772170Recruiting
Study wearable and symptom monitoring during respiratory virus challenges
This observational study looks for digital health patterns during studies where people are intentionally exposed to a respiratory virus. If you join a respiratory virus challenge at NIH, you may help researchers discover better ways to monitor and understand illness using wearable devices and shared health data.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT05036707RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study how tick bites change immune responses
This study looks at how a person’s immune system responds after exposure to Ixodes (black-legged) tick bites. It aims to better understand the body’s early immune reaction after tick exposure, using blood tests and small skin samples.

Gene therapy for p47 chronic granulomatous disease
This trial tests a new gene therapy for people with a specific type of chronic granulomatous disease (p47 CGD). The treatment uses your own blood stem cells, which are modified in a lab to help your body fight infections better. It is for people who do not have a matched stem cell donor and have had serious infections.

Ruxolitinib for hair regrowth in APECED-related alopecia areata
This Phase 2 study tests ruxolitinib to see if it safely helps regrow hair in people whose alopecia areata is linked to APECED (a rare immune condition). You may qualify if you have significant scalp hair loss for at least 6 months and haven’t had regrowth with other treatments.
