This Phase 2 trial tests whether sibeprenlimab, a biologic drug given as a shot every 4 weeks, can reduce disease activity and symptoms in people with Sjögren's disease. About 83 adults with moderate-to-active disease will receive either the drug or a placebo, added to their usua…

This early-phase trial is testing a CAR-T cell therapy called RD06-04 in 12 people with active autoimmune diseases like lupus, scleroderma, and vasculitis. The treatment involves reprogramming a patient's own immune cells to target and destroy faulty B cells. The main goal is to …

This early-phase trial planned to test a one-time infusion of genetically modified immune cells (CAR-T cells) targeting CD19 in people with several autoimmune diseases, including lupus and multiple sclerosis. The goal was to see if it was safe and could reduce harmful antibodies.…

This Phase 3 trial tests dazodalibep, a drug given by IV, in 651 people with moderate-to-severe Sjögren's syndrome. The goal is to see if it reduces disease activity and improves symptoms like dryness and fatigue. Participants receive either the drug or a placebo, and researchers…

This early-phase trial is testing the safety of tofacitinib (Xeljanz), a drug already used for rheumatoid arthritis, in 23 adults with mild-to-moderate Sjogren's syndrome. Participants take the drug or a placebo daily for 168 days. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and toler…

This study compares using cyclosporine eye drops alone versus combining them with absorbable punctal plugs for dry eye caused by Sjögren's syndrome. Thirty participants will receive the drops in both eyes and a plug in one eye to see if the combination improves symptoms better. T…

This study tests the Shingrix vaccine in over 2,000 adults with autoimmune rheumatic diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, who are at higher risk for shingles. Researchers will compare vaccinated patients to unvaccinated ones to see if the vaccine is safe and triggers a s…

This study tests an experimental drug called dazodalibep in 434 adults with moderate-to-severe Sjögren's syndrome, an autoimmune disease causing dryness, fatigue, and pain. Participants receive either the drug or a placebo to see if it improves symptoms like dry eyes and mouth. T…

This study examines whether women with primary Sjögren's syndrome, an autoimmune disease that causes dry eyes and mouth, also experience muscle loss, a condition called sarcopenia. Researchers will measure muscle strength, muscle mass, and physical performance in 120 participants…

This study will use a special blood test called mass spectrometry to look at immune cells in 500 people with various autoimmune diseases and healthy volunteers. The goal is to find patterns that could help doctors diagnose these conditions sooner. No treatments are being tested; …

This study aims to better understand fatigue by comparing people who have felt tired for more than a month with those who are not fatigued. Researchers will use questionnaires, physical tests, and optional brain scans to identify different types of fatigue. The goal is to gather …

This study aims to create a tool that predicts which patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases (like rheumatoid arthritis, vasculitis, or polymyalgia rheumatica) will develop serious side effects from long-term steroid use. Researchers will collect routine medical data—such a…
