Myositis disease

This trial is testing an experimental treatment called CRT-402 for people with severe autoimmune diseases like lupus, scleroderma, and myositis that haven't improved with standard therapies. CRT-402 is a type of CAR-T cell therapy given by infusion that aims to deplete certain im…

This phase III trial tests whether the oral drug nerandomilast can improve symptoms of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, a group of rare autoimmune diseases that cause muscle weakness and inflammation. Adults with active myositis are randomly assigned to take nerandomilast or a…

This trial tests an experimental drug called PF-08154225 in people with autoimmune diseases like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, myositis, or scleroderma. The drug aims to calm the immune system, which mistakenly attacks healthy cells in these conditions. Participants receive the dr…

This early-stage study tests whether a single infusion of a patient's own modified immune cells (CAR-T cells) is safe for people with severe autoimmune diseases like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or scleroderma that haven't improved with standard treatments. Only 6 adults aged 18-…

This early-phase trial tests a single dose of universal (off-the-shelf) CAR-T cells in 30 adults with active autoimmune diseases like lupus, scleroderma, vasculitis, myositis, or Sjögren's. The treatment targets CD19 and BCMA on immune cells to reset the faulty immune system. The…

This study tests whether Maraviroc, a drug currently used for HIV, can reduce muscle inflammation and improve function in adults with myositis that hasn't responded to standard treatments. Ten participants will take a daily 300mg tablet for 12 weeks and undergo muscle biopsies an…

This early-stage trial will test a new cell therapy called YTS109 in 12 children aged 5 to 17 with severe autoimmune diseases like lupus or scleroderma that have not responded to standard treatments. The children will receive a single infusion of these cells, and researchers will…

This study tests a drug called telitacicept in 30 adults with inflammatory myopathy, a condition where the immune system attacks muscles, causing weakness. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can control the disease. Participants must have not responded well to standard tr…

This study is building a biobank of blood samples and imaging data from 300 people with suspected inflammatory heart or autoimmune rheumatic diseases. Researchers aim to identify immune biomarkers that could predict major heart events like heart failure, stroke, or atrial fibrill…

This study tests a new imaging technique called full-field OCT to see if it can spot muscle inflammation faster than the usual method, which takes weeks. Researchers will compare both methods on muscle samples from 20 healthy adults and people with suspected myositis. The goal is…

This study will follow 1,550 adults with various neurological autoimmune diseases—like multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, and autoimmune encephalitis—to see how these conditions progress and respond to treatments in everyday medical practice. Researchers will measure disabili…
