Takayasu arteritis

This study tests whether the Butantan-Dengue vaccine is safe and works well in people aged 12–59 with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus) who are stable on low or no immune-suppressing drugs. Participants receive one vaccine dose and are monitored f…

This study looks at whether people with Takayasu arteritis, a rare blood vessel disease, can safely stop taking biologic medications after being in remission for a long time. About 40 participants who have been on biologics for at least 3 years and have no active disease will slo…

This study tests whether two drugs—bosentan and dapagliflozin—can improve blood vessel function in people with large vessel vasculitis, a condition that damages arteries and raises the risk of heart attacks and strokes. Sixty adults with stable disease will take both drugs for 6 …

This study follows up to 4,000 people with vasculitis (a group of diseases that cause blood vessel inflammation) and healthy volunteers over many years. Researchers collect blood, urine, imaging, and genetic samples to learn how the disease develops and changes. The goal is to fi…

This study looks back at medical records of 105 people who had a minimally invasive surgery called BEVAR to treat complex aortic aneurysms. Researchers want to see if two types of stent grafts (TUVA BX and iCover) are safe and work well. No new treatments are given; the study jus…

This study aims to learn how well heart scans (MRI, ultrasound, PET) can detect and predict outcomes in people with suspected or known inflammatory heart diseases. Researchers will follow 5,000 adults for one year to see how often heart involvement is confirmed and how it affects…

This global registry is collecting information from 1,000 people with Takayasu's arteritis, a rare disease that inflames and narrows large arteries. Researchers will analyze patients' symptoms, lab results, imaging, and treatments to see how the disease behaves and is managed aro…

This study tracks the pregnancy experiences of women with vasculitis, a group of rare diseases causing blood vessel inflammation. Researchers will use online surveys to understand how vasculitis affects pregnancy and what outcomes occur. The goal is to gather information to help …

This study collects tissue samples from 1,000 people with various forms of vasculitis, a group of rare inflammatory blood vessel diseases. Researchers will analyze the samples alongside clinical data to identify genes that increase risk and to spark new ideas for diagnosis and tr…

This study uses two online questionnaires to learn about the experiences of people with Takayasu arteritis and how doctors manage the condition. About 50 patients and an unspecified number of physicians in the UK will share their views on symptoms, treatment priorities, and unmet…

This study collects DNA samples and medical information from 1,000 people with various forms of vasculitis (blood vessel inflammation). Researchers will analyze the data to identify genes that increase the risk of developing these severe diseases. The goal is to better understand…

This study looks at how two rare diseases that cause blood vessel inflammation—Takayasu arteritis and Behçet's disease—affect physical strength, breathing, daily function, and emotional well-being. Researchers will compare 30 participants (patients and healthy volunteers) using s…

This study follows 150 people with Takayasu's arteritis that also affects the lung arteries. Researchers will track their health over time, including how far they can walk in six minutes and their risk of death. The goal is to better understand the disease and its long-term outlo…

This study is following 670 adults with vasculitis, a rare blood vessel disease, for up to 5 years. Researchers will collect medical data and blood samples to see how the disease starts, how it is treated, and what long-term problems may arise. No new treatments are being tested—…
