Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and tolerability profile of belantamab. The study will also assess how the levels of belantamab change over time and body's reaction to it in participants with moderate to severe systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
The purpose of this pharmacokinetic (PK) study is to describe the PK profile of ianalumab following s.c. administration in Chinese participants with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and/or Sjögren's disease (SjD). Collection of intensive PK data from Chinese population had been designed in the ianalumab Phase 3 studies of SjD CVAY736A2302 (NCT05349214) and lupus nephritis (LN) CVAY736K12301 (NCT05126277) on an optional basis. This study is conducted to provide supplementary Chinese PK data in addition to the intensive PK data from the two Phase 3 studies .
The aim of the study was to study the predictive value of FAR and CAR in order to provide a new predictive biomarkers for the disease activity and prognosis.
The purpose of the study is to explore the safety and efficacy of recombinant CD19xCD3 double antibody (A-319) in active/refractory systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled single-center clinical trial. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of low-dose telitacicept for prevention of flares in SLE patients with low disease activity.
An exploratory clinical study of the safety and efficacy of YTS109 cell injection in subjects with recurrent/refractory autoimmune disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to test ATHENA CAR-T injection in adults with moderate to severe Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. The main question it aims to answer is: • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of ATHENA CAR-T. After screening, participants will be subjected to lymphodepletion regimen. After recovery, participants will be injected with ATHENA CAR-T injection and followed up to 24 months.
Chlordecone, an organochlorine pesticide, was widely used on banana farms in the French West Indies. Studies by Inserm and health authorities have confirmed the contamination of the food chain and the majority of the population of the French West Indies by chlordecone. Epidemiological studies conducted in the French West Indies have shown that exposure to chlordecone at the levels observed is associated with an increased risk of developing several diseases, including premature birth and prostate cancer. Many of the adverse effects associated with chlordecone could be explained by its estrogenic hormonal properties, and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease whose sensitivity to estrogen is well known and is reflected by 1) its clear predominance in women, 2) its predominance in women of childbearing age, 3) its risk of exacerbation in the event of pregnancy. Chlordecone has the potential to modify the activity of SLE through mechanisms other than its pro-estrogenic effects. In rats, chlordecone was observed to induce alterations such as a reduction in lymphocyte count, thymic atrophy, and a decrease in splenic germinal centers and NK cells. In a mouse model of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), exposure to chlordecone results in increased production of immune complexes and anti-DNA antibodies, which are markers of disease activity and monitoring. Chlordecone also has a cellular effect that reduces the apoptosis of potentially auto-reactive lymphocytes and stimulates the production of GM-CSF, IL-2, TNF-alpha, and IFN-gamma. The latter is central to the pathophysiology of SLE. While experimental studies suggest a potential impact of chlordecone on SLE, no human studies have been conducted to date, and the chlordecone impregnation of lupus patients in Martinique remains unknown. The most serious and feared complication of SLE is kidney damage. Kidney damage from the disease and the necessary immunosuppressive treatments can lead to significant morbidity and mortality, including death and end-stage chronic renal failure. Therefore, it is important to manage the disease carefully. Suspected lupus nephritis is confirmed by a renal biopsy, which allows for formal diagnosis and categorization into several classes. Suspected cases are identified by a proteinuria to creatininuria ratio greater than 0.5 g/g (or 24-hour proteinuria greater than 0.5g). The objective of this project is to determine whether there is a positive association between lupus nephritis occurrence in patients followed by the internal medicine department of the Martinique University Hospital and organochlorine pesticide chlordecone impregnation.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if sulfasalazine is safe and feasible in the treatment of active lupus erythematosus (SLE). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does drug sulfasalazine with stable background treatment help lower the disease activity (SLEDAI) at week 16? How many patients can reach SRI-4 at week 16? Can this regimen help lower the prednisone dosage the patients need at week 16? What about the change of the type I interferon related genes expression at week 16? Participants will: Take sulfasalazine 750mg/dose, twice a day for 16 weeks. The dosage will be increased to 1000mg/dose within one month, twice a day if the patient could tolerate. Visit the clinic once every 4 weeks for checkups and tests.
Systemic lupus (SL) is a rare chronic autoimmune disease characterized by the production of autoantibodies directed against nuclear antigens, particularly native double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and excessive production of antiviral cytokines: type I interferons, particularly interferon alpha (IFN-α). IFN-α production results from the excessive detection of nucleic acids (DNA or Ribonucleic Acid (RNA)) by endosomal or intracytoplasmic receptors that are capable of inducing interferon production. The precise mechanisms of cytoplasmic sensor activation remain unknown; however, recent work in the field of interferonopathies suggests a role for human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs). HERVs are remnants of ancient infections caused by exogenous retroviruses integrated into the genome during evolution and represent 8% of the human genome.Several studies have suggested a role for HERVs in the development and maintenance of an excessive immune response in lupus patients and other autoimmune diseases by affecting the type I interferons (I IFN) signalling pathway. To date, none of the approved immunosuppressive drugs for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) have been shown to be effective in the background treatment of SL or in preventing relapse. Consequently, there is an urgent need to identify new molecules and therapeutic avenues for disease-modifying therapies. In this study, an innovative therapeutic strategy using a combination of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), abacavir/lamivudine, is proposed to treat SLE. Thus, we propose a pilot Phase II, randomized, open-label study using NRTIs in patients with SL in remission or with low clinical activity, and evaluating a biological endpoint (IFN signature), which is a direct proxy for the drug's expected effect. The main objective is to compare the addition of Abacavir/Lamivudine (Add-on) to standard care for 6 months, on the value of the interferon (IFN) transcriptomic signature of patients with systemic lupus with low activity as defined by the Lupus Low Disease Activity State (LLDAS).
