Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Cell-mediated immune responses as assessed by measurement of numbers of VZV specific T cells.
36 months
Secondary Outcomes (1)
To determine if children with AD have VZV-specific humoral responses to varicella vaccination that differ from those of nonatopic controls.
36 months
Study Arms (2)
Participants with AD
Children with AD who received the chicken pox vaccine 2 to 16 weeks prior to the study visit (including a group of AD subjects with eczema herpeticum)
Nonatopic controls
Children without AD who received the chicken pox vaccine 2 to 16 weeks prior to the study visit
Eligibility Criteria

You may qualify if:
- Parent/guardian has signed informed consent
- Male or female of any race or ethnicity
- to 36 months of age, inclusive
- Healthy subjects with no systemic disorders and subjects with moderate to severe AD including a group of subjects with ADEH+
- Previously vaccinated for varicella by a physician 3 weeks prior to the Study Visit (subjects receiving the vaccine 2-16 weeks prior will also be accepted)
You may not qualify if:
- History of infection with chicken pox
- Oral, intravenous, or intramuscular corticosteroids within 30 days prior to chicken pox immunization
- Asthmatics receiving more than 500 micrograms per day of inhaled budesonide or more than 220 micrograms per day of inhaled fluticasone
- Antiherpes antiviral agents within 7 days prior to immunization
- Suspected immune deficiency or family history of primary immunodeficiency
- History of or active cancer
- Active untreated tuberculosis (TB)
- Respiratory illness at the time of chicken pox vaccination
- Receipt of blood products or chicken pox zoster immune globulin within the last 5 months prior to study entry
