AUTOIMMUNE ENCEPHALITIS

This Phase 2a trial tests a drug called ART5803 in 30 adults with anti-NMDAR encephalitis or related psychiatric disease. The drug is a lab-made antibody designed to block harmful autoantibodies from attacking brain receptors. The study focuses on safety and tolerability, with ea…

This early-stage study tests a new cell therapy called CNCT19 in 18 adults with relapsed or treatment-resistant autoimmune neurological diseases like neuromyelitis optica. The goal is to see if it is safe and can help control the disease by targeting certain immune cells. Partici…

This early-stage study tests a new treatment using specially engineered immune cells (CAR T-cells) that target two proteins, CD19 and BCMA, to calm overactive immune attacks in people with severe autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, and neuromyelitis op…

This phase 2 trial tests whether bortezomib, a drug that targets antibody-producing cells, can help people with severe autoimmune encephalitis. In this condition, the body's own antibodies attack the brain. The study will enroll 50 adults who have already tried another treatment …

This study looks at whether a special brain scan called FDG-PET can help doctors diagnose autoimmune encephalitis, a condition where the immune system attacks the brain. Researchers will compare scans from 90 patients with the disease to scans from healthy people and those with A…

This study follows 100 women with neuroimmune diseases (like multiple sclerosis or myasthenia gravis) through pregnancy and up to five years after. Researchers will track disease activity, pregnancy complications, and baby health to learn how these conditions affect fertility and…

The CLUE study is a research project that follows 1,000 people with neuroinflammatory diseases like multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica. Participants undergo detailed MRI and PET scans at the start and after one year to see how their brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves c…

This study aims to better understand autoimmune encephalitis, a condition where the immune system attacks the brain. Researchers will analyze blood and spinal fluid from 20 patients to find new antibodies that may explain the disease in people who currently test negative. The goa…

This research study collects health information from 10,000 people with brain inflammation conditions like Long COVID, ME/CFS, and autoimmune diseases. Participants use a smartphone app to share symptoms, health history, and wearable data. The goal is to find disease subtypes and…
