About this study

The aim of this research is to define the human equivalent of mouse B1 cells.

Read the detailed description

The specific aim of this research project is to define the human equivalent of mouse B1 cells. This will be done by evaluating IgM secretion, surface markers, functional characteristics, V gene usage, N-region addition, and phosphorylation status of intracellular proteins, gene expression, sequencing of immunoglobulin genes, determination of antigenic specificity, replication history, and response to different stimuli.

The goal of this project is to begin to the translation of decades of basic science research and research in the mouse model into the human system. It is believed that properly defining this B cell subset in humans will lead to better therapeutics, prognostics and prevention for a number of disease including infections, autoimmune disease, and cancer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy, run by Northwell Health at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Presence of B-1 cells in humans (time frame: determined over the years study in effect). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Aug 2015.
