Filter by:Children with JDM are weak and get tired because their muscles aren't able to work like healthy muscles. This can make it hard for them to do normal everyday things and can make them less happy about their lives compared to children without the disease. There are two nutritional supplements that help muscles use energy and recover after exercise: creatine and coenzyme Q10. If the muscle has more energy, it may not be as weak and may not feel as tired or sore after exercise. Because of this we want to see if having children with JDM take creatine and coenzyme Q10 can make them stronger and less tired. If this works, we hope it will let them be able to do the things that healthy children can do, and make them feel better about their lives.
This is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of IgPro20 (subcutaneous Ig) treatment in adult subjects with dermatomyositis (DM). The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of IgPro20 subcutaneous (SC) doses in comparison to placebo in adult subjects with DM, as measured by responder status based on Total Improvement Score (TIS) assessments.
This was a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of treatment with KZR-616 in patients with active polymyositis (PM) or dermatomyositis (DM). Patients were evaluated for eligibility during the Screening Period. Eligible patients were stratified by diagnosis of DM or PM and randomized 1:1 to Arm A or Arm B of the study. During the 32-week treatment period, patients received study drug subcutaneously (SC) once weekly with 2 treatment periods of 16 weeks each. This study was conducted on an outpatient basis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ustekinumab in participants with active polymyositis (PM)/dermatomyositis (DM) despite receiving 1 or more standard-of-care treatments (for example, glucocorticoids and/or immunomodulators).
This case control study aims to determine whether spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is associated with autoimmune diseases and to update the incidence of SCAD in a population-based cohort.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pirfenidone in subjects with dermatomyositis interstitial lung disease
Patient Power is a patient research network and database (registry) to collect prospective information about demographics, self-reported diagnoses and medications, and willingness to participate in research from participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), spondyloarthritis (SpA), other musculoskeletal conditions, chronic neurological conditions like migraine, chronic pulmonary conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), asthma, autoimmune dermatological conditions such as psoriasis, and other chronic inflammatory or immune-mediated conditions. In addition, since patients with chronic conditions often have other co-morbidities like cardiovascular health and obesity-related metabolic disorders, these conditions will also be included. Participants will provide information from their smartphones or personal computers. The information will be used by researchers and clinicians to help patients and their providers make better, more informed decisions about treatment of chronic conditions.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating, multiple subcutaneous (SC) doses of VIB7734 in participants with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus (CLE), Sjogren's Syndrome, Systemic Sclerosis, Polymyositis, and Dermatomyositis.
This phase Ib trial studies the side effects of nivolumab and to see how well it works in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and cancer that has spread to other places in the body or cannot removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
This is a Phase 3 multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study assessing the efficacy and safety of lenabasum for the treatment of dermatomyositis. Approximately 150 subjects will be enrolled in this study at about 60 sites in North America, Europe, and Asia. The planned duration of double-blind treatment with study drug is up to 52 weeks.
