Filter by:The purpose of this study is to establish the tolerability, preliminary efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of CC-97540 in participants with severe, refractory autoimmune diseases.
This is an investigator initiated trial to assess the efficacy and safety of BRL-301 in the relapse or refractory autoimmune diseases of China.
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.
This research study will evaluate safety and how well the study drug, nintedanib improve symptoms in participants with myositis associated interstitial lung disease (MA-ILD). Interstitial lung disease is a disorder caused by the abnormal accumulation of cells structures between air sacs of the lungs resulting in thickening, stiffness and scarring of the tissues of the lung. This study will enroll a total of 134 participants across 15 clinical sites located in the United States. A subset of participants will be enrolled remotely via telemedicine utilizing certified mobile home research nurses and various remote monitoring devices. The research visits may include a physical exam, vital signs (such as blood pressure, heart rate, etc.), pulmonary function tests (PFT and/or home spirometry), Computerized Tomography (or CT) scans of the chest, blood draws, wearing a physical activity monitor and completing questionnaires. Some of these events may be done at home, at a local facility or remotely (via telemedicine).
Objective: To collect information and biospecimens (such as blood, muscle, and skin samples) that will be used to research causes and treatments of inflammatory muscle diseases. Eligibility: People aged 12 years and older with suspected or confirmed inflammatory muscle disease. Healthy volunteers aged 18 years and older are also needed. Design: Participants will have at least 1 clinic visit. Each visit will last 4 to 8 hours. Some may return for additional visits. All participants will undergo these procedures (unless they are unable to): - Physical exam, including blood and urine tests. - Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the thigh. Participants will lie still on a table with padding around 1 thigh. The table will slide into a tube. The scan will last for approximately 40 minutes. Some procedures are optional: - Muscle biopsy. An area of skin will be numbed. A quarter-inch cut will be made. Several pieces of muscle tissue, about the size of grains of rice, will be removed. - Skin biopsy. An area of skin will be numbed. A piece of skin about a quarter inch in diameter will be removed. - Genetic testing. Some of the samples collected may be used for genetic testing.
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.
This study's purpose is to measure the treatment response from efgartigimod PH20 SC compared with placebo in participants with Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy (IIM). Participants with the IIM subtypes of dermatomyositis (DM), immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM), or certain other subtypes of polymyositis (PM; including antisynthetase syndrome [ASyS]) will be included in the study. Treatment response will be measured by Total improvement score (TIS). Additional information can be found on https://myositis-study.com/.
Myositis are rare diseases for which the development of a cohort associated with a bank of biological samples (biobank) will allow for the conduct of researches to better delineate the underlying pathophysiology and find cures. This prospective cohort of patients with myositis will allow for identification of factors favouring the occurrence of myositis, whether they are constitutional (genetic) or acquired (environmental or drug). Different subgroups of myositis used for prognostication will be identified based on clinico-demographical variables, the nature of the organs involved beyond peripheral muscles (cardiac, diaphragm) and biomarkers abnormalities
This study aims to explore the clinical characteristics and mechanism of inhibitors of janus kinase in the treatment of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies
