Scientists hunt for rogue immune cells in autoimmune diseases
NCT ID NCT07251179
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 21, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study aims to better understand why some people's immune cells attack their own body, causing autoimmune diseases like lupus and scleroderma. Researchers will analyze blood samples from 200 adults with these conditions to identify and measure specific harmful immune cells. The goal is to improve future treatments by learning more about these cells.
