Chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus

This study tests a drug called litifilimab for people with lupus-related skin disease that didn't get better with standard antimalarial pills. About 450 adults with active skin lesions will receive either the drug or a placebo every 4 weeks for 24 weeks, then everyone gets the dr…

This study tests the long-term safety of the drug litifilimab in adults with lupus skin disease (CLE) that didn't improve with standard antimalarial treatment. About 322 participants who completed a prior study will receive injections every 4 weeks for up to 2 years (or 5 years i…

This study tests anifrolumab, a biologic drug given as a shot, for adults with chronic or subacute lupus skin rashes that didn't get better with antimalarial drugs. About 306 participants will receive either anifrolumab or a placebo to see if the drug can reduce skin disease acti…

This study looks at the long-term safety and effectiveness of enpatoran, an experimental drug for lupus. About 379 people who completed a previous 24-week study will take different doses of enpatoran or a placebo for up to 194 weeks. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and hel…

This study tests an experimental drug called IMVT-1402 in people with lupus-related skin rashes (subacute or chronic cutaneous lupus) that haven't gotten better with standard treatments. About 56 participants will receive either the drug or a placebo for 12 weeks, then all get th…

This early-stage trial tests an experimental drug called BI 3000202 in 16 adults with rare type 1 interferonopathies, such as Aicardi-Goutières syndrome. Participants take a low dose for 4 weeks, then a higher dose for 36 weeks. The main goal is to see if the drug is safe and how…

This study tests whether taking a 7-day course of oral antibiotics after hip or knee replacement surgery can prevent joint infections in patients at higher risk due to conditions like obesity, diabetes, or autoimmune disease. About 4,600 participants will receive one of three ant…

This early-phase study tests a new type of CAR-T cell therapy in 9 people with autoimmune diseases that have not responded well to standard treatments. The therapy uses specially engineered immune cells to target and attack faulty immune cells. The main goal is to check safety an…

This early-stage trial tests clonal fetal mesenchymal stem cells (cfMSCs) in 100 people with severe immune-related disorders or tissue damage. The goal is to see if the cells are safe and can reduce symptoms. Participants have no other treatment options left.

This phase 2 trial tests deucravacitinib, an anti-inflammatory pill, against a placebo in 74 adults with active discoid or subacute cutaneous lupus — skin rashes caused by lupus. The main goal is to see if the drug reduces rash severity after 16 weeks. Participants must already b…

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…

This study follows 510 people who had ACL knee reconstruction surgery, with or without an extra procedure called LET, about 10 years ago. Researchers want to see if adding LET increases the chance of developing knee osteoarthritis. Participants will get X-rays and answer question…

This registry enrolls up to 1,000 women aged 12–55 with rheumatic or autoimmune diseases who are pregnant or planning pregnancy. Researchers will collect data from medical records and patient surveys to study pregnancy outcomes, disease activity, and medication use. No experiment…

This study looks at immune cells from people with autoimmune diseases (like lupus), people with infections, and healthy volunteers. Researchers want to understand how these cells differ and what makes them attack the body in autoimmune conditions. The study involves blood and bon…
