About Common Variable Immunodeficiency

Common Variable Immunodeficiency is the most prevalent symptomatic primary antibody deficiency, characterized by markedly reduced serum immunoglobulin levels across all major classes and impaired vaccine responses. Affected individuals suffer recurrent bacterial infections, particularly of the respiratory tract, and are at elevated risk for autoimmune complications, granulomatous disease, and lymphoma. Diagnosis requires exclusion of secondary causes and demonstration of hypogammaglobulinemia persisting beyond age four with documented functional antibody failure.

Common clinical features

Recurrent sinopulmonary bacterial infectionsChronic diarrhea and malabsorptionAutoimmune cytopenias (ITP, AIHA)Splenomegaly and lymphadenopathyGranulomatous lung or liver diseaseIncreased risk of non-Hodgkin lymphomaBronchiectasis from recurrent pneumonias

Before you apply

Things trial teams commonly ask about for Common Variable Immunodeficiency. Not eligibility rules; those are set by each study.

  • Trials often require documented IgG below 500 mg/dL and failure of at least two IgG subclasses; confirm current immunoglobulin replacement therapy details before screening
  • Autoimmune or granulomatous CVID subtypes may qualify for separate immunomodulatory trial arms — clarify your CVID phenotype with your immunologist
  • Prior splenectomy or active malignancy typically disqualifies participants; gather your full surgical and oncology history
