Official title
Pilot Study of Omalizumab (Xolair) in Hyper IgE (Job's) Syndrome
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a laboratory-made antibody called omalizumab in patients with Job's syndrome, or hyper-IgE syndrome (HIES). Patients with HIES have very high levels of IgE antibody, a protein made by white blood cells. IgE plays an important role in starting allergic reactions in the body and may be related to some HIES symptoms, such as skin rashes and asthma. Patients also have frequent lung infections, easily broken bones and other symptoms. Omalizumab, which is approved to treat allergic asthma, is directed against IgE. This study will see if blocking IgE with omalizumab in HIES patients is safe and if it can reduce patients' IgE count. It will also look at how the body handles omalizumab and how it affects patients' symptoms. Patients 6 years of age or older with HIES may be eligible for this study. Each candidate is screened with a medical history, physical examination, skin examination and blood test. Participants receive an injection of omalizumab under the skin once every 2 weeks for 6 doses. At the time of each injection, patients are examined by a doctor, answer questions about their symptoms and have a blood sample drawn. After the sixth dose, patients have a physical examination, blood tests, skin examination and lung function tests. At follow-up visits scheduled 2, 4 and 6 months after the last dose of omalizumab, patients have a physical examination, answer questions about their symptoms, and have a blood sample drawn. Patients who show a significant response to omalizumab stay off the drug for 3 months after the last dose and then discuss with their study doctor and referring doctor about continuing the medicine.
