Etiology of Eczema Herpeticum (EH)

Integrated Extreme Trait Analysis to Understand the Etiology of Eczema Herpeticum (ADRN-06)

Whole genome sequencing methodology will be used to identify differences in frequency of rare deleterious coding genetic variants between recurrent Atopic Dermatitis (AD) subjects with a history of Eczema Herpeticum (ADEH+) and ≥3 Eczema Herpeticum (EH) episodes, versus controls. Controls will include (1) AD subjects without a history of EH (ADEH-); (2) non-atopic (NA) subjects without AD; and (3) general population controls from the Thousand Genomes Project.

Participants will be randomized within each atopic dermatitis (AD) severity subgroup or as non-atopic controls to either subcutaneous (SC) or transcutaneous (TC) vaccine administration. In this arm, participants will receive a standard vaccine dose (5.5x10^4 Plaque Forming Units) of YFV-17D administered subcutaneously in the right deltoid and placebo vaccination transcutaneously (then covered with a semi-occlusive dressing) in the left deltoid. The site pharmacist will maintain the blind and an unblinded (i.e., masked) site coordinator will administer assigned treatment: investigators, participants and assessors remain blinded to treatment assignments throughout the duration of the trial.

In this arm, participants will receive YFV-17D vaccination (1x10^3 Plaque Forming Units) by transcutaneous administration (then covered with a semi-occlusive dressing to optimize YFV-17D absorption) in the left deltoid and placebo by subcutaneous administration in the right deltoid.

Healthy volunteer participants who did not have atopic dermatitis defined by Atopic Dermatitis and Vaccinia Network (ADVN) Standard Diagnostic Criteria and received a 0.5 mL dose of the Yellow Fever vaccine (YFV-17D) by subcutaneous (SC) administration in the right deltoid and one dose of placebo by transcutaneous (TC) administration in the left deltoid.

Participants classified as atopic dermatitis (AD) defined by the Atopic Dermatitis and Vaccinia Network (ADVN) Standard Diagnostic Criteria and received a 0.5 mL dose of YFV-17D by subcutaneous administration in the right deltoid and one dose of placebo by transcutaneous administration in the left deltoid.

Total amount of IgE in the blood, which is a measurement of allergen sensitization. Higher IgE is indicative of greater allergen sensitization. There is no "normal" level for total serum IgE since a wide overlap exists between the total serum IgE in healthy non-allergic and allergic individuals.

Total Serum Immunoglobulin E (IgE; kU/L)

Eosinophils are a type of immune cell that has granules (small particles) with enzymes that are released during infections, allergic reactions, and asthma. An eosinophil is a type of white blood cell. Normal Reference Range: 0.0% - 7.0%.

Log10 Neutralization Index (LNI) is the Log10 difference in virus titer (measurement of amount of virus) between pre-vaccination and post-vaccination. An LNI greater than or equal to 0.7 suggests that a person has active immunity against Yellow Fever virus.

Neutralization titer (NT50) is the dilution of serum (antibody) that results in a 50% reduction in the amount of virus. A higher NT50 number reflects the presence of more protective antibody levels against the Yellow Fever virus. Some studies have used an NT50 titer of 1:10 or 1:20 as the minimum level to suggest that a person has active immunity against the Yellow Fever virus.

Seroconversion is defined as a Log10 Neutralization Index (LNI) of 0.7 or higher. A value greater than or equal to 0.7 suggests that a person has active immunity against Yellow Fever virus.
