This study tests whether low-dose colchicine, a drug used for gout, can reduce inflammation and symptoms in people with autoimmune or subacute thyroiditis. About 300 adults will be randomly assigned to colchicine, corticosteroids, or supportive care. The goal is to see if colchic…

This study tests an investigational drug called efgartigimod for adults with Graves' disease whose thyroid levels are still high despite taking standard antithyroid medications. About 230 participants will receive either the drug or a placebo as a shot under the skin. The goal is…

This study looks at people with autoimmune thyroid disease (like Hashimoto's or Graves') to see if they have hidden signs of type 1 diabetes risk. Researchers will test blood for diabetes-related antibodies and use genetic data to build a risk model. The goal is to better underst…

This study compares levels of two proteins, Klotho and FGF23, in 150 adults with Hashimoto's thyroiditis versus healthy controls. The goal is to see if these proteins are linked to inflammation in the disease. No treatment is given—only blood samples are taken.

This study will collect blood samples from 30,000 adults in the UK with various health conditions, including blood clots, infections, heart disease, diabetes, and more. The samples will be used to develop and fine-tune new diagnostic tests for the cobas® lumira device, which allo…
