Borrelia (Lyme) blood test study
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new blood test to help diagnose Lyme disease (borrelia infection) in children. If you are at the emergency room with symptoms that might be Lyme disease and you have a healthy immune system, you might be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have symptoms that your doctor thinks could be Lyme disease.
- You cannot have a weakened immune system (primary or secondary immunodeficiency).
- You must be at the hospital emergency department for evaluation.

This study looks at how your immune system responds to the bacteria that causes Lyme disease. It may help doctors better understand the disease and improve treatment. The trial includes people with a specific form of Lyme called acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans (a skin condition) and healthy volunteers.
This study looks at people who got a serious form of Lyme disease while being treated with a type of biologic drug called an anti-CD20 (such as rituximab). The goal is to learn more about these cases and improve care. You may join if you had Lyme disease confirmed by a DNA test within two years of taking this medicine.
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.
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.
This study looks at how Lyme disease during pregnancy might affect a baby's development. It involves questionnaires and possibly an MRI of the baby's brain, done at a visit or remotely.
This study looks for new ways to find the cause of lymphocytic meningitis or meningoencephalitis (inflammation of the brain or its lining) when standard tests don't give an answer. It may help people who have been hospitalized with these conditions and whose spinal fluid tests were unclear or not done.
