Filter by:Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex systemic autoimmune disease with variable phenotype and prognosis. Autoantibodies are important diagnostic biomarkers in SSc. More than 90% of patients with SSc had anti-nuclear antibodies. Autoantibodies specific to SSc (anti-topoisomerase I antibodies, anti-centromeres, anti-RNA polymerase III, anti-Th/To, anti-fibrillarin, anti-NOR90) or associated with overlap syndromes (anti-RNA polymerase III antibodies -PM/Scl, anti-KU, anti-U1RNP, anti-TRIM21) are detected in most patients. Excluding anti-TRIM21 antibodies, autoantibodies are usually mutually exclusive and are associated with distinct phenotypes. Around 5 to 10% of patients with SSc have no autoantibodies detectable with routine biological tests. Recently, new autoantibody specificities have been described in SSc (anti-eIF2B, anti-RuvBL1/2, anti-BICD2, anti-U11/U12 RNP antibodies). "Seronegative" patients could represent new specificities of autoantibodies (unknown or not currently routinely evaluated) associated with different phenotypes of the disease. Primary objective is to compare the phenotype of patients with systemic sclerosis with or without detectable specific or associated autoantibodies. Secondary objectives are: - to determine homogeneous groups of patients with systemic sclerosis without detectable specific or associated autoantibodies - to compare the phenotype of patients with systemic sclerosis without detectable specific or associated autoantibodies according to anti-nuclear antibodies status
A Study of Anti-CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy for Subjects with Systemic Sclerosis
An exploratory clinical study of the safety and efficacy of YTS109 cell injection in subjects with recurrent/refractory autoimmune disease
This study is a prospective, open-label, randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical trial. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of Telitacicept in adults with early diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc), with Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) administered as a background treatment.
Sharing research results with patients is required by ethical regulations. Yet, most researchers do not share results from their studies with patients. The investigators plan to conduct a series of randomized controlled trials among people with scleroderma, a rare autoimmune disease, in a large international cohort, to identify the most effective methods for communicating study results with patients. The first trial in the series will compare a research dissemination tool (infographic) against a plain-language summary comparator. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive the dissemination tool or comparator. Study participants will rate communication tools for (1) information completeness; (2) understandability; and (3) ease of use of format. Our results can be used by researchers and patient organizations who disseminate research results so that they can tailor the way they disseminate results to patient needs.
This is an investigator-initiated trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of anti-CD19-CD3E-CAR-T cells in the relapse or refractory autoimmune diseases.
Main purpose: To evaluate the safety of UTAA09 injection in the treatment of relapsed/refractory (R/R) autoimmune disease (AID). Secondary purpose: To evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of UTAA09 injection in patients with R/R AID. To evaluate the pharmacodynamic (PD) characteristics of UTAA09 injection in patients with R/R AID. To evaluate the initial efficacy of UTAA09 injection in the treatment of R/R AID subjects. To evaluate the immunogenicity of UTAA09 injection in R/R AID subjects.
This study is a preliminary investigation, with a single-group design, not randomized and transparent, focusing on treatment. Its purpose is to identify the highest dose of BH002 injection (CD19-BCMA CAR-T cells) that patients suffering from resistant systemic lupus erythematosus can tolerate.
The investigational product is designed to effectively combat B cells in patients with autoimmune diseases. Autologous T cells enriched with CD4/CD8 are genetically engineered using a lentiviral vector to express chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) that target the CD19 antigen on the cell surface of B cells and their precursors. During treatment, patients undergo leukapheresis, lymophodepleting chemotherapy and administration of the expanded CD19-CAR-transduced T cells.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to see if an online intervention program for people with Systemic Sclerosis (scleroderma) helps keep people in the workforce and increase self-confidence in dealing with challenges at work. The program is called Making it Work Systemic Sclerosis. Researchers will compare a group who gets the program to a group who will get the program at a later point in time (wait list control group) to see if self-confidence in dealing with work challenge gets better. People in the Making it Work group will complete questionnaires and attend one 2 hour meetings each week for 5 weeks and meet with an occupational therapist and vocational counselor. People in the wait list control group will complete the questionnaires and participate in the program at a later point in time.
