Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–60 - NCT05189925RecruitingPhase 1
Correcting a missing immune enzyme using an mRNA cell therapy
This early-phase trial tests whether an mRNA-based treatment can correct a key immune problem in people with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). It may help your immune cells work better against infections, but this is mainly to check safety and early signs of benefit.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT00090662Recruiting
Healthy Volunteer Sample Collection for Medical Research
This research study collects blood, urine, and other samples from healthy volunteers to support medical research. Depending on the type of sample, you may donate blood, provide skin samples, or participate in other non-invasive procedures. Your samples help scientists understand health and develop new treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–85 - NCT05266222Recruiting
Collecting respiratory virus samples for a research library
This study collects samples from people who have or might have a cold/respiratory virus, then stores them for future research. It may help researchers better understand respiratory germs and develop better treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3 years+ - NCT03610802Recruiting
Send blood samples to study genetic and immune differences
This study collects blood (and sometimes related samples) to learn how genes and the immune system work in people with primary immunodeficiency (PID) or in family members who may not have it. The goal is to improve understanding of rare immune conditions and help guide future care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 day–99 years - 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 - 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 - 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 - 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 - NCT00039689Recruiting
Blood collection study for newly diagnosed HIV research
This research study collects blood cells from people recently diagnosed with HIV who haven't started HIV medicines yet. Researchers use these samples to understand how HIV affects the immune system and develop better treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT00001352Recruiting
Understanding Why Some People Get Fungal Infections
This study looks at genetic reasons why some people are susceptible to a serious fungal infection called cryptococcosis. Researchers will collect blood samples and perform genetic testing to understand the immune system differences that make certain individuals more vulnerable to this infection.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT01212003Recruiting
Study of how tuberculosis develops over time
This study follows people with suspected or confirmed tuberculosis (TB), whether they have inactive “latent” TB or active TB. It helps researchers better understand TB’s natural course and may improve future testing and care by allowing collection and storage of samples.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–100 - NCT06732414Recruiting
Long-term study of multiple allergic diseases
This study creates a biorepository to collect and store samples (blood, nasal fluid, skin swabs) from people with allergies, asthma, sinus disorders, or immune dysregulation. It aims to better understand these conditions over time, which may help develop better treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–100 - NCT00001316Recruiting
Study viral levels in blood and lymph node tissue with HIV
This study measures how much HIV is in your blood and lymph node tissue. If you qualify, you would also allow blood and other tests (including genetic and hepatitis screening), which may help researchers better understand how HIV affects the body.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT00001355Recruiting
Understanding immune system cell defects and family patterns
This research study investigates problems with immune system cells called phagocytes that help fight infections. Researchers will study patients with suspected immune defects and their blood relatives to better understand these conditions and develop better care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 month–100 years - NCT01200953Recruiting
Study care after contact with serious infectious germs
This study helps doctors manage people who may have been exposed to, infected with, or are recovering from dangerous infectious germs (including emerging outbreaks). It may help by setting safe evaluation and care steps after these high-risk exposures.

Studying Immune System Disorders and Family Genetics
This research study examines how the immune system malfunctions in patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID)—a condition where the body doesn't make enough antibodies to fight infections. Researchers want to understand the genetics and immune patterns to help develop better treatments. Family members may also be asked to participate to help identify genetic causes.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–120 - NCT02147405Recruiting
PET scans and lymph node checks for HIV immune rebound
This study looks at people with HIV who either have not started HIV medicines yet or who recently started/changed them and may develop immune rebound (IRIS). It uses blood tests and optional PET/CT scans and lymph node biopsies to understand what’s happening in the body and to guide care.
