App-Based exercise may boost immune health in antibody deficiency
NCT ID NCT07698197
First seen Jul 13, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests whether a 12-week, app-guided exercise program is safe and practical for adults with primary antibody deficiencies—conditions where the immune system struggles to fight infections. Researchers will track how many people join and finish the program, how often they exercise, and whether it improves quality of life or immune function. The goal is to see if exercise can be a helpful addition to standard care.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- app-based exercise program
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that regular exercise is a safe, practical way to improve quality of life and immune function in people with primary antibody deficiencies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small feasibility study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The program requires consistent app use, which may be challenging for some.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Diagnosed with one of the following primary antibody deficiencies: IgG subclass deficiency, selective IgA deficiency, selective IgM deficiency, or specific antibody deficiency * Receiving care in the Section of Rheumatology, Allergy \& Immunology * Able and willing to participate in a moderate-intensity exercise program. Patients will be screened using the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) Pre- participation Screening Guidelines. This algorithm assesses patients for cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic disease. Those patients determined to not require further medical clearance to participate in exercise will be included. Exclusion Criteria: * Receipt of immunoglobulin (Ig) replacement therapy * Use of immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory medications (e.g., chronic systemic corticosteroids, B-cell-depleting therapies) * Medical contraindications to moderate-intensity exercise as determined by clinical assessment using the previously discussed ACSM Pre-participation Screening Guidelines. * Other risk factors/medical conditions that would limit safe participation in exercise as determined by clinical assessment, including active rheumatologic conditions including active rheumatoid arthritis.
