Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Up to 50 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: Patients with confirmed or suspected Inborn Errors of Immunity, in particular patients with an immunodysregulated condition (autoimmunity, allergy, hyperinflammation and non-clonal lymphoproliferation, susceptibility to the development of malignant neoplasms) aged < 50 years at onset of clinical features suspected for Inborn Errors of Immunity, who referred to the Pediatrics Unit of the IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna Policlinico di Sant'Orsola, Italy.

Who may be able to join

  • patients with confirmed or suspected Inborn Errors of Immunity;
  • age < 50 years at onset of clinical features suspected for Inborn Errors of Immunity;
  • obtaining informed consent from patients or parents/legal guardian of pediatric patients.

Who cannot join

  • patients in whom infectious susceptibility and immunodysregulation can only be attributed to known non-immunological causes: acquired immunodeficiency secondary to chronic infections (HIV), and acquired immunodeficiency secondary to immunosuppressive treatment.

About this study

This is an observational, retro-prospective, moncentric study focused on Inborn Errors of Immunity, an heterogeneous group of inherited diseases due to defects in the differentiation and/or function of the immune system. The primary aim of this study is to obtain a clinical-immunological, functional and molecular characterisation of paediatric and adult patients with confirmed or suspected Inborn Errors of Immunity, particularly of patients with manifestations of immunedysregulation, focusing on clinical course, immunophenotypic laboratory and functional abnormalities, genetic background.

Read the detailed description

Due to the observational nature of the study, patients were and will be treated according to normal clinical practice and in accordance with medical judgement. The following evaluations were performed in the retrospective cohort and will be performed in the prospective cohort:

  • Standard haematochemical examinations;
  • Extended lymphocyte typing;
  • Plasma dosage of immunoglobulins;
  • Evaluation of early and late responses to Measles-Parotitis-Rosolia and Diphtheria-Tetanus-Pertussis vaccinations;
  • Evaluation of antibody responses to vaccines against Haemophilus Influenzae, Neisseria Meningitidis and Pneumococcus;
  • Detection of auto-antibodies on HEp-2 cells, and of auto-antibodies directed against haemopoietic cells and proteins of innate and adaptive immunity;
  • Plasma dosage of complement factors (C3, C4);
  • Radiological assessment;
  • Functional immunological assay;
  • Molecular-genetic investigations of targeted gene panels involved in immunodysregulation and Inborn Errors of Immunity.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Category of diagnsoed Inborn Error of Immunity

    categories I to X

    Measured: at baseline

  2. Qualitative or quantitative alterations in innate immunity and/or adaptive immunity

    presence or absence of alterations

    Measured: at baseline

  3. Infective susceptibility

    presence of one of the following conditions: invasive, severe, persistent, recurrent, opportunistic and/or vaccine strain infections

    Measured: at baseline and every 6 months up to 1 year

  4. Immunodisregulation

    presence of at least one disorder among atopy, hyperinflammation, autoimmunity, non-clonal lymphoproliferation and/or malignant neoplasms

    Measured: at baseline and every 6 months up to 1 year

  5. Mortality

    time-to-event from diagnosis of Inborn Errors of Immunity up to 1 year

    Measured: 1 year after diagnosis of Inborn Errors of Immunity

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Inborn Errors of Immunity, run by IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna at 1 site in Italy.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jan 2025. 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 Italy. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Francesca Conti (00390512144666, francesca.conti27@unibo.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Category of diagnsoed Inborn Error of Immunity (time frame: at baseline). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Jan 2025.
