Understanding IgE proteins in allergies and immune conditions
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at IgE, a protein involved in allergic reactions, to better understand its role in different immune-related diseases. It aims to find out how different forms of IgE relate to health and disease, which may help improve diagnosis or treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You can join if you have a chronic spontaneous hives (CSU), a type I allergy (including severe allergic reactions or desensitization), atopic dermatitis (eczema), mastocytosis, X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), or hereditary alpha-tryptasemia (HaT).
- You can also join as a healthy volunteer, matched by age and gender to the allergic participants.
- You must be willing and able to give informed consent.
- For healthy volunteers: you may have allergy-related symptoms, but they should be mild (like to pollens, food, drugs, insect stings, or hives).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study collects blood samples (and optional skin samples) from people with angioedema to learn more about the condition and find better ways to diagnose and treat it. If you join, you may help scientists understand angioedema better.
This study looks at a type of immune cell (B regulatory cell) in the blood of people with and without allergies to pollens, house dust mites, or insect stings. It aims to help understand how these cells work in allergic disease.
This study aims to better understand inducible urticaria (hives triggered by cold, pressure, or friction) and chronic spontaneous urticaria. Researchers will use skin tests to measure how different triggers affect your skin in detail.
This study looks at how the body reacts to tick bites, specifically to understand alpha-gal syndrome—a condition that can cause allergic reactions to red meat. If you had a recent tick bite and can provide the tick, you may be able to help researchers learn more.
This study checks whether a new blood test can measure allergy-related immune signals (IgE) in people with known or suspected allergies. If it works well, it could help doctors diagnose and track IgE allergies more easily.
This trial collects blood and tissue samples to better understand allergies, asthma, and mast cell conditions. It aims to find markers that could improve diagnosis and treatment. Participation involves donating samples and sharing medical history.
