Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to investigate ventricular repolarization utilizing Tp-e intervals and Tp-e/QT ratios in patients with DM. The main questions it aims to answer are: - 1.Exploring the changes in ventricular repolarization parameters (QT interval, QTc interval, QTd, Tp-e interval, Tp-e/QT ratio) in patients with dermatomyositis, providing quantifiable indicators for early detection of arrhythmia in dermatomyositis patients; - 2.Exploring the role of inflammation in ventricular repolarization in DM patients, providing a basis for in-depth research on the diagnosis and prevention of arrhythmia in DM patients.
To evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and preliminary clinical activity of Itolizumab in subjects with Dermatomyositis.
The purpose of this study is to measure the long-term safety and tolerability of efgartigimod PH20 SC in adult participants with IIM who previously participated in ARGX-113-2007. Secondary objectives include efficacy measures of efgartigimod PH20 SC in participants with IIM.
The purpose of the study is to understand how the study medicine PF-06823859 works in people with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (DM and PM). These disorders cause inflammation that weakens the muscles that are important for movement and may also cause skin rash in people with DM. This study is seeking participants who: - Are 18 years of age or older. - Have active DM or active PM. - Are receiving a stable dose of 1 corticosteroid taken by mouth and/or 1 traditional immunosuppressant. - Note: Corticosteroids and immunosuppressants are medicines that help reduce inflammation and may signal to the immune system not to attack the body. Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare disease that causes muscle inflammation that results in muscle weakness and low muscle stamina. Patients with DM have a characteristic skin rash. Polymyositis (PM) is a rare disease that involves mainly muscle inflammation resulting in muscle weakness, that can sometimes be painful. Patients with DM and PM may have trouble going up the steps, walking or getting to a standing position. Some of the participants will receive the study medicine (PF-06823859) and some will receive placebo (which is similar to study medicine but contains no medicine in it). The study medicine or placebo will be given as an intravenous (IV) infusion (directly into the veins), which takes about1 hour; every 4 weeks from Day 1 to Week 48 of the study. Both PF-06823859 and placebo and will be given at the study site. The study will compare the experiences of people receiving study medication to those of the people who do not. This will help to see if PF-06823859 is safe and effective. Participants will take part in this study for about 13 months. During this time, participants will have 16 study visits. These visits will be performed at the study site.
Introduction: Patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), psoriatic arthritis (PAs), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) , systemic sclerosis (SSc), idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) and primary vasculitides, have a high risk of herpes zoster (HZ) infection. This increased susceptibility is caused by a deficient cell-mediated immune response due to the underlying disease and glucocorticoid and immunosuppressive treatments that impair the T-cell response, including conventional and unconventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and biological agents. In this context, the recent availability of a recombinant vaccine against HZ (RZV or Shingrix®), composed of recombinant VZV glycoprotein E (gE) and the AS01B adjuvant system (HZ/su), is a major progress regarding safety for immunosuppressed patients. Its effectiveness, however, has been clearly demonstrated for non-immunosuppressed patients and in selected populations of immunocompromised individuals. There are no prospective controlled studies evaluating the immunogenicity of RZV and its impact on the activity of the underlying disease, as well as its safety in patients with ARDs at high-risk for HZ. Hypothesis: RZV has a good safety profile, including with respect to underlying rheumatic disease activity, in patients with ARDs at high risk of HZ. Objectives: Primary: To assess the short-term safety profile in relation to underlying disease activity in patients with ARDs at high risk of HZ immunized with RZV compared to unvaccinated patients. Secondary: To evaluate the general safety of the vaccine in patients with ARDs at high risk of HZ immunized with RZV and non-immunosuppressed control subjects (CG); the humoral and cellular immunogenicity of RZV in patients with ARDs at high risk of HZ compared to CG; the influence of disease treatment on vaccine response; the 12-month persistence of humoral immunogenicity and incident cases of HZ. Specific studies will also be carried out to evaluate the effect of drug withdrawal (methotrexate-MTX and mycophenolate mofetil-MMF) after vaccination in increasing the immune response in patients with ARDs with controlled underlying disease.
This is a Phase 2 Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of Froniglutide in Patients With Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy ("FROniGlutide Study")
In patients with myositis early immunomodulation by intensive treatment ("hit-early/hit-hard" principle) may induce faster reduction of disease activity and prevent chronic disability. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) in addition to standard treatment with glucocorticoids may be beneficial for this purpose: add-on IVIg improved symptoms in steroid-resistant myositis, and first-line monotherapy IVIg led to a fast and clinically relevant response in a pilot study in nearly 50% of patients with myositis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of orally administered GLPG3667 once daily for 24 weeks in adult participants with dermatomyositis (DM).
The primary efficacy objective: To evaluate the effect of daxdilimab compared with placebo in reducing disease activity at Week 24. The secondary efficacy objectives include: 1. To evaluate the effect of daxdilimab compared with placebo in reducing disease activity at Week 24. 2. To evaluate the effect of daxdilimab compared with placebo on skin symptoms at Week 24. 3. To evaluate the effect of daxdilimab on decreasing the use of corticosteroid at Week 24. Other secondary objectives include: 1. To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) and immunogenicity of daxdilimab in participants. 2. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of daxdilimab in participants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of orally administered M5049 in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, specifically dermatomyositis (DM) and polymyositis (PM) participants for 24 weeks.
