SYSTEMIC SCLEROSIS

This Phase 3 study tests whether anifrolumab, given as a weekly shot, can improve symptoms of systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) compared to a placebo. About 314 adults aged 18-70 with early-stage disease will take part. The main goal is to see if more people respond to treatment, …

This early-stage trial is testing a new treatment called KITE-363 for people with severe autoimmune diseases like lupus and scleroderma that haven't improved with standard treatments. KITE-363 is a type of cell therapy where a patient's own immune cells are modified in a lab to t…

This study tests a new drug called CM-101 for people with systemic sclerosis, a disease that causes skin hardening and organ damage. About 45 adults will receive either the drug or a placebo to check safety and how well the body tolerates it. The goal is to see if CM-101 can redu…

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 4 trial tests whether baricitinib, a drug already used for rheumatoid arthritis, can help people with systemic sclerosis—a rare disease that causes skin thickening and organ damage. Sixty participants will receive either baricitinib or standard treatment for 24 weeks, …

This study tests an experimental drug called MT-0551 against a placebo in 80 adults with systemic sclerosis, a disease that causes skin thickening and can affect internal organs. The main goal is to see if the drug reduces skin hardness over 26 weeks. Researchers will also check …

This early-stage trial is testing a new treatment for people with severe lupus or scleroderma that hasn't responded to standard therapies. The treatment involves taking a patient's own immune cells, modifying them to target and destroy faulty immune cells, and giving them back al…

This early-phase trial is testing a new treatment called KYV-101 for people with systemic sclerosis, a disease where the immune system attacks the body, causing skin and organ damage. The therapy uses a patient's own modified immune cells to target and destroy certain B cells tha…

This study tests a new treatment for people with lupus or scleroderma that hasn't improved with standard care. The treatment uses specially engineered immune cells from a healthy donor (called universal CAR T-cells) to target and destroy faulty immune cells. The goal is to contro…

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 8-week online group program designed to help people with scleroderma improve their thinking skills and overall well-being. Researchers will compare participants who take the program right away to those on a waitlist. The goal is to see if the program boosts me…

This study tests whether fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) – giving healthy donor stool in capsules – can safely reduce chronic diarrhea in people with systemic sclerosis. Twenty adults with scleroderma and persistent diarrhea will receive either FMT or a placebo. The main g…

This study planned to collect extra blood and urine samples from scleroderma patients during their regular check-ups to find biological markers that could predict if their disease would get worse over the next 10 years. The goal was to improve treatment decisions and identify the…

This study looks at whether helping people with inflammatory arthritis address social needs—like food, housing, or transportation—can reduce missed doctor visits. About 100 adults with conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus who have missed appointments in the past year wil…

This study looks at whether artificial intelligence can analyze CT scans of the lungs to predict how systemic sclerosis (a rare autoimmune disease) will affect the lungs over time. Researchers will review past scans and health records of 1,000 patients to see if certain imaging f…
