Role of Interferon-gamma 1-b (IFN-γ) on Cells of the Innate Immune System: Functional, Biochemical and Gene Expression Studies in Patients With Chronic Granulomatous Disease
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Interferon Gamma-1B for Chronic Granulomatous Disease. Completed, enrolled 9 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The overall goal of the study is to investigate the functional, biochemical, and gene expression effects of Interferon-gamma 1-b (IFN-γ) on the neutrophils of patients with Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD). The investigators hypothesize that the clinical effects demonstrated in patients with CGD treated with IFN-γ (decreased number and severity of infections) are the result of biochemical processes and upregulation of specific genes, which lead to enhanced functionality of this immune cell population.
