Could a pill shield celiac patients from Gluten's harm?

NCT ID NCT05636293

Summary

This study is testing if a drug called ritlecitinib can protect people with well-managed celiac disease from intestinal damage and symptoms if they accidentally eat gluten. Forty participants will take either the drug or a placebo pill daily while also consuming a small, controlled amount of gluten for three weeks. Researchers will check if the drug helps prevent the immune system from attacking the gut lining and causing symptoms.
