Panniculitis in Dermatomyositis
Adipose tissue involvement is rare in dermatomyositis. The occurrence of partial or diffuse lipodystrophy is a rare but well-characterized manifestation, particularly in juvenile forms of dermatomyositis. Panniculitis, on the other hand, is exceptional and rarely described in the literature, mostly in the form of clinical cases. Panniculitis in dermatomyositis is …
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 …
Topical Ruxolitinib Cream for Refractory Cutaneous Dermatomyositis
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of topical ruxolitinib for treating the refractory cutaneous manifestations in patients with dermatomyositis. The investigators' hypothesis is that topical ruxolitinib will be both safe and effective for such patients.
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 …
Evaluation of Severity in Juvenile and Adult-onset Dermatomyositis
Dermatomyositis (DM) are rare and heterogeneous systemic autoimmune diseases, characterized by the association of muscle inflammation, skin inflammation and vasculopathy. DM concern both adults and children. DM can be life-threatening (interstitial lung disease, infectious complications) and responsible of significant functional disability (muscle weakness). Age of onset appear to be an …
Severity Factors of Dermatomyositis in the Caribbean Population - DM-ANTILLES
Dermatomyositis is a rare chronic autoimmune and inflammatory disease that affects the skin and striated muscles. Its prognosis is linked to visceral involvement (lungs, heart, and oropharyngeal region) and to the possible presence of associated cancer. The implementation of the research will allow identification of incident cases of dermatomyositis in …
FAST for DM - Fatty Acid Supplementation Trial (FAST) for Dermatomyositis (DM)
Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare autoimmune disease that causes muscle weakness, skin rashes, and other symptoms. Researchers think both genetic and environmental factors play a role in this disease. They want to find out more about how diet and lifestyle choices affect people with DM/JDM. Objective To see if omega-3 …
Clinical Trial of CD19-targeted CAR-T Therapy for Refractory Juvenile Dermatomyositis
This is a Phase I clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CD19-targeted CAR-T in the treatment of refractory juvenile dermatomyositis (RJDM).The experiment was divided into two phases: dose exploration (Part A) and dose extension (Part B).
Study of KYV-101 Anti-CD19 CAR T Therapy in Adult Dermatomyositis
The goal of this clinical trial is to characterize to understand the effects of a type of cell therapy called Chimeric Antigen Receptor T lymphocyte (CAR T) therapy in adult patients with the autoimmune disease dermatomyositis. This study will utilize a technology that modifies a type of white blood cell …
Microecology and Immunity in Patients With Anti-MDA5 Antibody Positive Dermatomyositis and Interstitial Lung Disease
The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between the microbial community, host immunity and the presence or absence of concurrent rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease patients with anti-MDA5 antibody positive dermatomyositis.
