Environmental Risk Factors for the Anti-synthetase Syndrome
Background Like other complex diseases, autoimmune diseases are the result of numerous causes, including genetic and environmental factors. Some researchers believe that people who are susceptible to autoimmune disorders develop them when the body reacts to environmental or other factors by creating white blood cells that attack the body s …
Monitoring Biomarker for Detecting Change in Physical Activity and Limb Function in Inclusion Body Myositis Over Time
Inclusion-Body Myositis (IBM) results in weakness and the deterioration of distal arm muscles, the symptoms of which are currently assessed through expert examination at clinical visits. Such in-clinic assessments are time-consuming, subjective, of limited sensitivity, and only provide a snapshot of a patient's disease. In this project, we will conduct …
Pompe & Pain - Study to Assess Nociceptive Pain in Adult Patients With Pompe Disease
The primary aim of this nationwide, explorative, cross-sectional study in Germany is to characterize the prevalence, severity and quality of musculoskeletal pain in adult patients with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD). The secondary objectives are to evaluate whether muscle pain is associated with muscle function, to assess whether muscle pain is …
Study on Lymphocyte Subsets of Peripheral Blood in Patients With Nonmyopathic Dermatomyositis Complicated With Pulmonary Interstitial Disease
To detect the changes of lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood of non-myopathic dermatomyositis with pulmonary interstitial disease, classical dermatomyositis with pulmonary interstitial disease, rheumatism with non-inflammatory myopathy with pulmonary interstitial disease and healthy adults among the 4 groups, and to detect the related cytokines secreted by lymphocyte subsets Th1,Th2 and …
Baricitinib in Patients With Relapsing or naïve Dermatomyositis
Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare and disabling condition with an important impairment of quality of life and possible life-threatening complications. Treatment is based on high doses of corticosteroids but this exposes patients to adverse events (cardiovascular mortality, glucocorticoids-induced muscle and skin damages). Corticosteroids taper is associated with disease relapses. Although …
Clinical Responsiveness of Dermatomyositis Using Cutaneous Dermatomyositis Disease Area and Severity Index (CDASI)
The Evaluation of Clinical Responsiveness Using the Cutaneous Dermatomyositis Disease Area and Severity Index (CDASI), established in 2008, is a one-site database study conducted at the University of Pennsylvania. The database has yielded valuable information and clinical insights into the pathophysiology, disease processes, including psychological responses, treatments and quality of …
A Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Brepocitinib in Adults With Dermatomyositis
This is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of treatment with brepocitinib (TYK2/JAK1 inhibitor) in adults with dermatomyositis (DM). The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of two dose levels of brepocitinib in comparison to placebo, as measured by differences in the Total Improvement …
Exercise Capacity of Patients With Dermatomyosis
Dermatomyositis (DM) patients experience muscle weakness and low aerobic capacities, which are associated with poor health status and increased mortality. The origin of this muscle impairment remains unknown. The investigators hypothesize that mitochondria functioning is impaired in DM muscle and links with exercise capacities.
Studies of the Natural History, Pathogenesis, and Outcome of Autoinflammatory Diseases Including Juvenile Dermatomyositis
Purpose The purpose of this protocol is 1. To comprehensively evaluate patients with autoinflammatory diseases clinically, genetically and immunologically at the autoinflammatory disease clinic at the NIH. 2. To follow patients with autoinflammatory Diseases that are genetically defined including Neonatal-Onset Multisystem Inflammatory Disease (NOMID), the most severe clinical phenotype of …
A Study Evaluating the Effects of GLPG3667 Given as Oral Treatment for up to 24 Weeks in Adults With Dermatomyositis
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of orally administered GLPG3667 once daily for 24 weeks in adult participants with dermatomyositis (DM).
