Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of belimumab as a maintenance therapy in adults with refractory Idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM) as compared with standard of care. This is a multicentre double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.


Clinical Trial Description

Adults with refractory IIM will be enrolled. IIM is defined as Dermatomyositis (DM) or Polymyositis (PM), meeting the Bohan & Peter (1975) diagnostic criteria for definite or probable DM or PM. Refractory IIM is defined as chronic active IIM with a history of inadequate response or intolerance to three months of glucocorticoids and/or at least a history of inadequate response or intolerance to three months of one other immunosuppressive agent (IS) (azathioprine, methotrexate, mycophenolate mofetil, leflunomide, tacrolimus, cyclosporine, cyclophosphamide, Rituximab or intravenous gamma globulin [IVIG]). ;
