New injection tested for rare autoimmune muscle disease

NCT ID NCT05669014

Summary

This study tested whether daxdilimab, given as an injection under the skin, could reduce disease activity in adults with dermatomyositis or anti-synthetase inflammatory myositis—two rare autoimmune conditions that cause muscle weakness and skin rashes. The 12 participants were randomly assigned to receive either the drug or a placebo (dummy injection) for 24 weeks to compare effects. The main goals were to see if the drug improved overall disease activity, reduced skin symptoms, and allowed patients to lower their steroid use.
