About this study

Official title: Registry of Asthma Characterization and Recruitment 3 (RACR3) (CAUSE-02)

This is a multi-center, non-interventional registry to create and maintain a database of participants to serve as a recruitment source for current and future DAIT NIAID-sponsored Childhood Asthma in Urban Settings (CAUSE) studies.

Read the detailed description

Protocol CAUSE-02 RACR3 is a multi-center, non-interventional registry to create and maintain a database of participants to serve as a recruitment source for current and future DAIT NIAID-sponsored Childhood Asthma in Urban Settings (CAUSE) studies. Approximately 1,500 participants - of all ages, living in selected Office of Management and Budget (OMB) defined Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) will be enrolled in the registry.

The registry database will be generated with data gathered at a single core visit, followed by optional additional visits. The registry will include assessments of various asthma and allergy characteristics to achieve a more flexible, efficient, selective, and inclusive approach to participant recruitment while still following national guidelines to foster participant safety. CAUSE investigators may invite children or adults without asthma or atopic diseases to participate in the registry as "healthy" controls; for validation of laboratory tests, study monitoring equipment, and/or procedures; or for site procedure training of study personnel for certification and quality assurance.

Participants may opt to withdraw their information or discontinue from the registry at any time, in person, by telephone, or in writing.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants with asthma and allergy characteristics (time frame: 7 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
