New drug aims to stop Flare-Ups in rare autoimmune disease
NCT ID NCT04540497
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a drug called inebilizumab to see if it can prevent flare-ups in people with IgG4-related disease, a rare condition that causes swelling and damage in organs. About 135 adults who have had recent flare-ups are taking part. The main goal is to see how long it takes for a flare to happen compared to a placebo.

Experiencing (or recently experienced) an IgG4-RD flare that requires initiation or continuation of glucocorticoid (GC) treatment at the time of informed consent. 5. IgG4-RD affecting at least 2 organs/sites at any time in the course of IgG4-RD 6. Non-sterilized male subjects who are sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential must use a condom with spermicide from Day 1 through to the end of the study and must agree to continue using such precautions for at least 6 months after the final dose of IP. Females of childbearing potential who are sexually active with a non-sterilized male partner must use a highly effective method of contraception Key Exclusion Criteria: 1. History of solid organ or cell-based transplantation or known immunodeficiency disorder. 2. Active malignancy or history of malignancy that was active within the last 10 years (some specific situations for cervical, skin or prostate cancer are acceptable). 3. Receipt of any biologic B cell-depleting therapy or non-depleting B-cell-directed therapy in the 6 months prior to screening. 4. Receipt of non-biologic DMARD or immunosuppressive agent other than GCs within 4 weeks prior to screening. 5. Active tuberculosis or high risk for tuberculosis; hepatitis C infection in absence of curative treatment; evidence of hepatitis B infection. 6.
