Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate remission induction therapy for refractory Lupus Erythematosus with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) versus Rituximab (anti CD20) followed by maintenance therapy with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF).
There is a deficiency in guidelines about the treatment of autoimmune hemolytic anemia in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), especially in refractory cases. Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) showed promising results in those patients but still, the data available are in form of case reports. So, investigators will investigate the efficiency of MMF against a well-established treatment Rituximab in the treatment of refractory autoimmune hemolytic anemia in SLE patients.
This is a single-arm, single-site, proof-of-concept study that will evaluate the treatment of 10 participants with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who have a history of cutaneous lupus with Tofacitinib.
Many laboratory markers can be measured for assessment of Lupus activity as aberrant manufacturing and imbalance of the cytokines of T-helper cell which already have been implicated within autoimmunity pathogenesis as IL-18 and IL-10 levels are usually elevated in lupus sufferers and correlated with SLEDAI score IL-17 has been linked to immune-mediated organ damage in several autoimmune diseases and recently it has been linked to pathogenesis of a murine model of lupus and human lupus Diverse cytokine abnormalities which common in lupus patients may skew T cells differentiation into IL-17-producing CD4+ and double negative T cells. This could promote the autoimmune process by activation of immune cells &stimulation of proliferation of B-cell and production of antibody
This is a multinational, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel treatment, Phase 2, double-blind, 2 arm study evaluating the efficacy and safety of SAR441344 in comparison with placebo in the treatment of participants aged 18 to 70 years with active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Study details include: - Study duration: 36 weeks - Treatment duration: 24 weeks - Visit frequency: every 2 weeks
A Study of CD19/BCMA Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells Therapy for Patients With Refractory Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
A subset of autoimmune diseases (ADs) in children and young adults are life-threatening and unresponsive to conventional treatments. In these patients, the delivery of high dose immunosuppressive therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) offers a treatment strategy capable of purging the pathogenic, autoreactive immune system and an opportunity for "immune reset." This strategy has been used in adults across a myriad of indications with evidence for efficacy. This study proposes a pilot study to evaluate this therapeutic strategy in children and young adults with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE), two potentially life threatening autoimmune diseases that may response to this therapeutic approach.
The aim of thie study to assess tear film parameters such as tear meniscus height (TMH), tear meniscus area (TMA), and tear meniscus depth (TMD). In addition, corneal pachymetry and epithelial thickness maps in juvenile SLE patients and compared to healthy subjects of similar age and gender.
A complex interaction between demographic, environmental and genetic mechanisms impact the onset, severity and outcome of ILD-SARDs through dysregulation of the immune system and lung pro-biotic pathways. Comorbidity and genetic risk indicate that there are overlapping pathogenic mechanisms among SARDs, some of which underlie ILD in different SARDs. The purpose of this biobank is to study the clinical, pathological, laboratory, and imaging characteristics of SARDs patients with lung involvement. This will help identify as unique features underlying lung involvement in SARDs. In addition, this may lead to the discovery of novel mechanisms of disease and potentially novel targets of treatment for SARDs patients with lung disease.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of emapalumab in children and adults with macrophage activation syndrome (sHLH/MAS) in Still's disease (including systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis and adult onset Still's disease) or with sHLH/MAS in systemic lupus erythematous, resenting an inadequate response to high dose glucocorticoid treatment.
