20,000 volunteers needed to decode immune disease genetics

NCT ID NCT03206099

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study will analyze DNA from up to 20,000 people, including those with immune disorders and their relatives, to find genetic variants linked to conditions like atopy, autoimmunity, and primary immunodeficiency. Researchers will also study how best to return genetic results to participants. The goal is to better understand the genetics of these diseases and improve clinical genetic services.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help identify new genetic causes of immune disorders and improve how genetic results are shared with patients.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not directly benefit participants, and some genetic findings may be uncertain or not actionable.

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

* PARTICIPANT INCLUSION CRITERIA: * Must fulfill one of the following criteria: * Proband participants: must be individuals under investigation by another NIH protocol on which they are co-enrolled, or are referred from the GDMCC protocol "Defining the Genetic Etiology of Suppurative Lung Disease in Children and Adults" (NCT04702243). Probands may have a disease under investigation or be healthy volunteers * Biological relatives: biologically related to a proband participant. * Aged 0-99 years. * Participants must be willing to undergo genetic testing. * Participants must be willing to allow samples to be stored for future research. * Participants must be willing to have their de-identified genomic data shared, for example in a controlled access databases like the Database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP). * To complete surveys and interviews: * Proficient with the English language. * Able to provide informed consent. * Adult healthy volunteers must be able to provide informed consent. PARTICIPANT EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, contraindicates participation in this study is a reason for exclusion.
