Study Summary

This trial is testing if a low level of immunoglobulin E in the blood is a sign of developing immunity problems.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-80 with normal or high levels of certain immune system proteins (IgG, IgA, and IgM) and an undetectable level of serum immunoglobulin E (IgE). Participants should be able to follow the study schedule and procedures. Those with a history of frequent infections, immunodeficiency, recent immunosuppression treatment, or low immune protein levels cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study investigates whether having an undetectable amount of serum IgE can indicate the start of an immune deficiency. It involves individuals who have been seen at the University of Virginia Asthma, Allergy, and Immunology clinics as well as control subjects from a specific previous study.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves a vaccine test (Salmonella typhi polysaccharide vaccine), potential side effects may include local reactions like pain or swelling at the injection site, fever, fatigue, headache and possible allergic responses.
