Clinical definition (Orphanet)
Primary immunodeficiency with post-measles-mumps-rubella vaccine viral infection is a rare primary immunodeficiency due to a defect in innate immunity disorder characterized by selective susceptibility to viral infections, particularly after systemic challenge with live viral vaccines, such as the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine. Patients present severe, potentially fatal, manifestations to viral illness, including encephalitis, hepatitis and pneumonitis.
How rare: <1 / 1 000 000 — fewer than one in a million. In a city the size of Kolkata, that might mean on the order of fifteen people.

Research stages
Trial readiness signals
Where this condition sits on an open-data research pipeline — not how close a treatment is, and not medical advice. Empty stages often mean “not in these databases under this Mondo ID,” not “impossible.”
2/6 stages with a signal
No matched interventional trial; the gene is known and literature exists — preclinical or natural-history work may still be the practical next step.

Biology
Genes and phenotypes
Gene–disease validity from GenCC, plus phenotypes and animal models joined from Monarch Initiative via Mondo ID — not a clinical diagnosis aid.
Do we know what causes it?
Yes — we know a specific gene responsible (STAT2).
GenCC classification: Strong.
Phenotypes (Monarch / HPO)
Not enriched in this build — Monarch phenotype joins were not run for this record.

Where to find support
We do not yet link condition-specific patient organisations. These umbrella groups support undiagnosed and ultra-rare families:
India — NPRD
Last verified 2026-07-26This ORPHAcode is not on our curated NPRD list (direct or Mondo-parent match). That does not decide clinical eligibility; families in India should ask a notified Centre of Excellence about current coverage.
Hand-curated for this project. ORPHAcode mappings are best-effort and may be incomplete or imprecise for umbrella categories. Parent (Mondo) matches mean the policy lists a broader category — confirm eligibility with a Centre of Excellence. Financial entitlements summarised from public policy statements and may change. This is not official government guidance.
How we counted this
Europe PMC query (preferred label + any corrected label + Orphanet and Mondo exact synonyms, stoplisted; unioned with resolved MeSH labels when available). UMLS / OMIM / NCIT cross-references are stored on the overview but are not added to the query string.
"Primary immunodeficiency with post-measles-mumps-rubella vaccine viral infection" OR "Primary immunodeficiency with post-MMR vaccine viral infection" OR "IMD44" OR "immunodeficiency 44" OR "immunodeficiency type 44"
ClinicalTrials.gov query (quoted phrases + MeSH via query.cond, plus recall-expansion terms when used):
"Primary immunodeficiency with post-measles-mumps-rubella vaccine viral infection" OR "Primary immunodeficiency with post-MMR vaccine viral infection" OR "IMD44" OR "immunodeficiency 44" OR "immunodeficiency type 44" OR "STAT2"
Recall-expansion terms: STAT2
Study-type breakdown: 0 interventional · 0 observational · 0 expanded access. Only interventional studies enter the trial headline.

Confidence reasoning
- Preferred label is multi-word and distinctive
- No synonyms dropped by stoplist
- No label/synonym collisions with other diseases in this corpus
