Could your body clock affect rare inflammatory disease?

NCT ID NCT06544018

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether people with CAPS (a rare genetic inflammatory condition) have disrupted circadian rhythms—the body's natural day-night cycle. Researchers will measure melatonin levels and track activity with a watch in 30 participants (patients and healthy household members). The goal is to understand how the internal clock may influence CAPS symptoms, not to test a new treatment.
