New weekly shot aims to tame Sjögren's Flare-Ups
NCT ID NCT06979531
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Sep 11, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study tests an experimental drug called IMVT-1402 in 180 adults with moderate to severe Sjögren's disease. Participants receive either the drug or a placebo as a weekly injection under the skin for 24 weeks. The goal is to see if the drug can reduce overall disease activity and improve symptoms.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- IMVT-1402 (a drug injected under the skin once a week)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could lead to a new treatment option that reduces systemic disease activity in people with moderate to severe Sjögren's disease.
- What could go wrong
- This is a Phase 2b trial, so it is still early. The drug may not prove effective or safe enough to move forward. Side effects are possible, and results may not apply to all patients.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants with a diagnosis of primary SjD for at least 12 months prior to the Screening Visit and meet classification criteria for primary SjS according to the 2016 American College of Rheumatology/ European League Against Rheumatism Classification Criteria for Primary Sjogren's Syndrome at the time of screening. * Participants with moderate to severe systemic disease activity as determined by a clinESSDAI total score ≥ 5 at the Screening Visit. * Participants are seropositive for antibodies to Sjogren's Syndrome A (SSA)/Anti-Sjogren's Syndrome A (Ro) at the Screening Visit. * Participants have residual salivary flow as measured by stimulated whole salivary flow rate ≥ 0.01 milliliters per minute (mL/min) at the Screening Visit. Additional inclusion criteria are defined in the protocol. Exclusion Criteria: * Participants with a diagnosis of secondary SjD, inadequately treated fibromyalgia, other confirmed connective tissue, rheumatic, or systemic inflammatory autoimmune disease including but not limited to, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, dermatomyositis, or polymyositis, that in the opinion of the Investigator, is likely to interfere with the ability to assess primary SjD manifestations. * Participants with a history of clinically significant monoclonal gammopathy, including but not limited to monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, history of multiple myeloma or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, or have an active malignancy or history of malignancy within 5 years prior to the Screening Visit. Additional exclusion criteria are defined in the protocol.
