What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests a therapy called AlloNK, made from donor cord blood immune cells, combined with the drug rituximab. It aims to see if this combination is safe and can help people with severe forms of rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's disease, myositis, or scleroderma that haven't responded to other treatments. About 90 participants will receive the therapy in a step-by-step dosing plan.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
AlloNK (a donor immune cell therapy) combined with rituximab
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a new treatment option for people with hard-to-treat autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis or scleroderma.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase 2 trial with only 90 people, so results may not apply widely. The therapy involves strong immune suppression, which carries risks of infection and other side effects.
