Scientists hunt for genetic clues behind rare immune disorder
NCT ID NCT00055172
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study aims to find the genetic causes of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), a rare condition where the immune system doesn't work properly. Researchers will collect blood samples from 100 patients and their relatives to analyze DNA and other factors. The goal is to better understand how inherited genes lead to SCID, which may help improve future diagnosis and treatment.
