Common variable immunodeficiency
MONDO:0015517Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) comprises a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by a significant hypogammaglobulinemia of unknown cause, failure to produce specific antibodies after immunizations and susceptibility to bacterial infections, predominantly caused by encapsulated bacteria.
Also known as: Common Variable Immune Deficiency, idiopathic immunoglobulin deficiency, primary antibody deficiency, primary hypogammaglobulinemia, secondary hypogammaglobulinemia, Immunoglobulin deficiency, late-onset, acquired agammaglobulinemia, acquired hypogammaglobulinemia

Breathing test could help doctors personalize antibody therapy for immune deficiency
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study looks at whether a simple breathing test (spirometry) can help doctors decide the right dose of immunoglobulin therapy for people with common variable immune deficiency (CVID). Researchers will enroll 22 adults with CVID who already take a stable dose of Hizentra. Half…
