New registry tracks mysterious connective tissue disease to uncover clues
NCT ID NCT02234388
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This registry follows 100 people with undifferentiated connective tissue disease (UCTD), a condition with symptoms like joint pain, rash, and fatigue that doesn't fit a specific diagnosis. Researchers will track changes in quality of life, fatigue, depression, and disease features over time. The goal is to better understand how UCTD progresses and what symptoms are most common.
