Acquired idiopathic inflammatory myopathy

This early-phase study tests a single injection of a gene therapy called V001-BCMA for people with autoimmune diseases like lupus that have not responded to standard treatments. The therapy targets and modifies specific immune cells to reduce disease activity. The main goal is to…

This study tests the long-term safety of a drug called efgartigimod PH20 SC in adults with active idiopathic inflammatory myopathy, a group of rare muscle diseases. Participants who completed a previous trial will receive the drug as a shot under the skin for up to 51 months. The…

This study is testing a drug called deucravacitinib in 10 adults with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, a group of rare diseases that cause muscle inflammation and weakness. Participants will take one pill daily for 6 months. Researchers will track symptom changes and lab resul…

This study tests a new treatment called rapcabtagene autoleucel for people with severe idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (muscle inflammation) that hasn't improved with standard therapies. About 21 adults will receive either this cell therapy or a comparator. The main goal is to…

This early-phase trial tests a new cell therapy called BEN301 for several autoimmune diseases, including scleroderma and rheumatoid arthritis. The therapy uses specially engineered immune cells (CAR-Treg cells) to calm the overactive immune system. The study involves 24 adults an…

This phase 2 trial tests whether nipocalimab, given intravenously, can improve symptoms of active idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (myositis) better than a placebo. About 36 adults with myositis will receive either nipocalimab or a placebo, along with standard steroid treatment…

This early-phase study tests a new treatment called Prula-cel for people with autoimmune diseases like lupus, scleroderma, and vasculitis. Prula-cel uses donor immune cells engineered to target and destroy faulty immune cells that attack the body. The goal is to find a safe dose …

This study was designed to test a new treatment for people with autoimmune diseases like lupus, scleroderma, and myositis. It combined a specially engineered immune cell product (CLBR001) with a targeted antibody drug (SWI019), with or without a preparatory chemotherapy step. How…

This study tests whether adding intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) to standard steroid treatment early in myositis helps patients improve faster. Myositis is a group of rare diseases causing muscle inflammation and weakness. The trial includes 44 adults diagnosed within the past y…

This early-stage trial is testing a new treatment called KYV-101 for people with severe autoimmune diseases like lupus, scleroderma, and vasculitis. The treatment involves taking a patient's own immune cells, modifying them to target and destroy faulty B cells, and giving them ba…

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 early-stage study is testing a new treatment called CNTY-101 for people with severe autoimmune diseases like lupus, scleroderma, and inflammatory myopathies that haven't improved with standard therapies. CNTY-101 uses specially engineered immune cells to target and destroy f…

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 will use a special blood test called mass spectrometry to look at immune cells in 500 people with various autoimmune diseases and healthy volunteers. The goal is to find patterns that could help doctors diagnose these conditions sooner. No treatments are being tested; …

This study aims to create a tool that predicts which patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases (like rheumatoid arthritis, vasculitis, or polymyalgia rheumatica) will develop serious side effects from long-term steroid use. Researchers will collect routine medical data—such a…
