Long-term study of immune system disorders
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study evaluates and follows patients with inflammatory conditions related to immune system problems. It aims to understand these disorders better and may offer opportunities to participate in other research.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 2 years or older.
- You must have an inflammatory condition, such as one caused by an infection or an immune system problem.
- An NIH doctor must be interested in your case and willing to oversee your care at the NIH.
- You must have a regular doctor outside the NIH for general medical needs and emergencies.
- You must be willing to provide tissue samples for research and have samples stored.
- You must be able to give informed consent or have a legal representative who can.
- If you are female, you must not be pregnant.

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.
This study measures how immune cells respond when exposed to test “stimuli.” It needs healthy, nonpregnant adults and screens for certain infections and recent illnesses or medicines to help ensure the results aren’t affected by outside factors.
This study looks for and tracks nervous system problems in people with immune system disorders. It aims to better understand how infections or inflammation affect the brain and nerves in these patients.
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.
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.
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.
