Filter by:Systemic SClerosis (SSC) is a systemic disease characterized by limited or diffuse cutaneous sclerosis, microangiopathy, overproduction of autoantibodies and variable organ damage due to vasculopathy and/or fibrosis. The loss of self-tolerance is believed to be caused by the dysregulation of both innate and adaptive immune systems and may involve Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). Neutrophils are potent producers of ROS and may play a role in endothelial cells and fibrobasts dysfunction, as in autoantibodies generation. However, their role in SSC pathogenesis remains to be determined. Recent studies discovered abnormal regulation of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) in other auto-immune diseases such as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). NETs are web-like structures composed of chromatin backbones and granular molecules. They are released by activated neutrophils through a process called "NETosis". Nets were first described in 2004 as a novel host defense mechanism to trap and kill foreign pathogens. Recent evidence shows that NETs also participate in the pathogenesis of a variety of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, including SLE. The investigators recently highlighted this phenomenon in SSc, especially in patients with vascular complications and/or at a early stage of the disease. The investigators will now explore the factors implicated in this dysregulation of NETosis in SSc.
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.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of CD19-CAR-DNT cells in subjects with relapsed/refractory autoimmune diseases
SC291-102 is a Phase 1 study to evaluate SC291 safety and tolerability, preliminary clinical response, cellular kinetics and exploratory assessments for subjects with severe autoimmune diseases.
This study is a single-center, open-label, dose-escalation exploratory clinical trial, expected to enroll 6 to 12 participants. It will use a BOIN (Bayesian Optimal Interval) design for dose escalation, with four predetermined dose groups (0.3×10^6 cells/kg, 1.0×10^6 cells/kg, 3.0×10^6 cells/kg, and an alternative dose of 0.1×10^6 cells/kg). Each dose group plans to enroll 1-2 or 3-6 participants with relapsed or refractory autoimmune-mediated kidney diseases (such as lupus nephritis, ANCA-associated vasculitis, membranous nephropathy, and IgG4-related diseases).
Lupus nephritis (LN) and ANCA-associated vasculitis are severe autoimmune diseases, which may lead to the death of patients, particularly when they are refractory to the conventional therapeutic agents. Based on the current knowledge, the autoantibodies against self-antigens may exert important pathological roles in the pathogenesis of both LN and ANCA-associated vasculitis, of which the origins are primarily plasmablasts and plasma cells. BCMA is the molecule expressed on memory B cells, plasmablasts and plasma cells, and therefore is an ideal target for the elimination of potential pathogenic antibody secreting cells. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells against BCMA may provide a novel therapeutic way for the refractory LN and ANCA-associated vasculitis patients to eliminate the pathogenic autoantibody-secreting cells. In this study, the safety and efficacy of a novel CAR-T cell therapy using PRG-1801 cells, are evaluated in patients with refractory LN and ANCA-associated vasculitis.
To explore the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and mechanism of action of MT-2990 in patients with AAV.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of avacopan in participants with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV).
The goal of this National Registry is to is to collect information from patients with rare kidney diseases, so that it that can be used for research. The purpose of this research is to: - Develop Clinical Guidelines for specific rare kidney diseases. These are written recommendations on how to diagnose and treat a medical condition. - Audit treatments and outcomes. An audit makes checks to see if what should be done is being done and asks if it could be done better. - Further the development of future treatments. Participants will be invited to participate on clinical trials and other studies. The registry has the capacity to feedback relevant information to patients and in conjunction with Patient Knows Best (Home - Patients Know Best), allows patients to provide information themselves, including their own reported quality of life and outcome measures.
This is a single arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CD19 targeted CAR-T cells therapy for patients with Refractory Autoimmune Disease
