Trial Now Recruiting: Novel Genetic Disorders of the Immune System (NCT02257892)

Researchers are looking for adults and children with certain immune system disorders to join a study. The immune system normally helps your body fight infections, but in some people it doesn't work properly, causing frequent infections and other health problems. This study wants to understand why some immune systems fail and how to help people with these conditions. Relatives of affected people may also be able to join.

WHY IT MATTERSThis trial is actively recruiting 500 participants with four specific genetic immune disorders (PI3KCD, CTLA4, STAT3GOF, and MAGT1 deficiency) — if you or a family member has one of these diagnoses, you may be eligible to enroll now and contribute to understanding these rare conditions.
