Evaluation of immune reconstitution of patients with adenosine deaminase deficiency treated with enzyme replacement therapy a joint ESID-IEWP study

The study is currently in progress. The aim is to carry out a multicentre research project to evaluate the level of immune reconstitution achieved by patients with ADA-SCID on ERT while awaiting a more definitive treatment with HSCT or GT. Because GT is now recommended over HSCT if there is no matched sibling donor, but it is associated with a significantly longer waiting time, precise knowledge about timing of immune reconstitution, and when to consider treatment failure and plan an „urgent“ HSCT is important in the management of patients with ADA-SCID.

Clinical spectrum and management of patients with autosomal dominant anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and immunodeficiency caused by NFKBIA heterozygous variants. A joint ESID/EBMT IEWP study

The study is currently in progress. The objective of this study is to investigate the clinical and biological manifestations, treatment, and outcome of patients with autosomal dominant anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with immunodeficiency due to NFKBIA pathogenic variants.

Call for participation: IL2Rα and IL2Rβ Deficiencies – Clinical Phenotype and HSCT Outcome, a joint ESID/EBMT IEWP study

The study is currently in progress. 
The objectives of this study include:
1) Describe the clinical and immunological phenotype in patients with IL2RA and IL2RB deficiencies
2) Describe the outcome of HSCT in these two disorders
3) Explore the impact of CMV serostatus and CMV disease at HSCT on outcome
4) Explore the impact of donor chimerism on immunophenotype and disease activity post-HSCT

ESID 2026 Fellowships – April

Over the past few months, ESID Education Committee (including Juniors and PIDCD working parties) has updated and refined the ESID Fellowships Program to ensure a smoother application and review process for all applicants.
We are pleased to announce the program is now open and continues to offer two distinct opportunities – observership grant and research fellowship – for ESID members to expand their expertise, strengthen inter-institutional collaboration, and advance research and care in Primary Immunodeficiencies (PIDs). You can find more information about each below and apply by November 10th!
