Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a chronic, multisystem autoimmune disease characterized by potentially widespread and progressive skin fibrosis and vascular abnormalities, and may involve the musculoskeletal, gastrointestinal, pulmonary, cardiac, renal, neuromuscular, and urogenital systems. At present, there is no clear and effective drug treatment for the progression of scleroderma skin lesions, …
In the current study we aim to assess the macrovascular involvement in SSc patients through an ultrasound (US) evaluation of radial and ulnar arteries and splanchnic vessels.
Relma-cel is a product containing CD19-CAR-transduced T cells. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of Relma-cel at different dose levels in patients with early diffuse systemic sclerosis. Efficacy will be explored too. If enrolled, participants will undergo leukapheresis, lymphodepleting chemotherapy and administration of Relma-cel.
The purpose of this study it to test the efficacy of a wearable device to improve symptom management and maximize qualify of life in systemic Sclerosis (SSc) patients in a randomized trial. Specifically, we will evaluate if the Apollo Neuro device may improve the two specific symptoms highest ranked by …
Almost 90% of systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients experience hand function limitation, which leads to impaired daily functioning and work participation. An important cause of impaired hand function are contractures of the hand, which are reported in up to a half of patients. With this longitudinal cohort study in patients with …
This is an investigator-initiated trial aimed at assessing the safety and efficacy of anti-CD19 CAR-T cells in the treatment of childhood-onset systemic sclerosis
Diseases of the skin associated with chronic immune driven conditions, including scleroderma, lupus, dermatomyositis, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis, significantly impact skin integrity, function, and overall quality of life. These conditions can lead to severe disfigurement, discomfort, and systemic complications, necessitating long-term medical intervention. The prevalence of these skin disorders is …
This is a 52 week, single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. After patients maintain a stable dose of Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) for at least 1 month, they will be randomized to treatment with either Belimumab \& Rituximab or placebo.Patients in both groups will be on background MMF for the entirety …
This research will evaluate the effect of diets on bloating/distention, assess changes in abdominal pain, and overall gastrointestinal symptom burden in Systemic Sclerosis. The researchers will do this by comparing outcomes of people assigned to 3 different diets. Following the research specifics of the diets will be available upon contact …
This is a single-center, open-label, non-randomized, single-arm clinical trial. Patients with refractory lupus neritis (SLE-LN), systemic sclerosis (SSc), and primary Sjogren syndrome combined with pulmonary artery hypertension (pSS-PAH receive umbilical cord blood CD19-BCMA CAR T cell therapy. The primary objective is to prospectively assess the safety of umbilical cord blood …
