Study of BCMA/CD70 CAR-T Therapy for Refractory cSLE
This is an investigator-initiated trial aimed at assessing the safety and efficacy of anti-BCMA/CD70 CAR-T cells in the treatment of refractory systemic lupus erythematosus.
Investigation of Medial Longitudinal Arch and Foot Function in Patients With Lipedema
Lipedema is a chronic adipose tissue disorder that commonly leads to joint laxity, hypermobility, and functional limitations, yet its impact on foot morphology has not been systematically examined. This case-control study aims to investigate whether patients with lipedema exhibit a higher prevalence of generalized joint hypermobility and foot structural abnormalities-specifically …
CT1190B in the Treatment of Patients With Moderate to Severe Refractory Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) or Refractory/Progressive Systemic Sclerosis (SSc)
A Clinical Study Exploring CT1190B in the treatment of patients with moderate to severe refractory systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or refractory/progressive systemic sclerosis (SSc)
Autologous Stem Cell Transplant (ASCT) for Autoimmune Diseases
A subset of autoimmune diseases (ADs) in children and young adults are life-threatening and unresponsive to conventional treatments. In these patients, the delivery of high dose immunosuppressive therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) offers a treatment strategy capable of purging the pathogenic, autoreactive immune system and an opportunity …
Evaluation of Mood Disorders Under Biologics in Chronic Inflammatory Rheumatic Disease
Chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases (CIRD) affect many organ systems. Painful sensations within the joints spine, hand and foot deformities, low quality of life and psychosocial status in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis and psoriatic arthritis can lead to the development of anxiety and depression. Prevalences of anxiety increase in patients …
Home-Based Clinical Management of Cardiac Complications in Systemic Sclerosis
The goal of this observational pilot trial is to evaluate the feasibility of home monitoring for patients with systemic sclerosis-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (SSc-PAH). The study will assess home-based measures that may help detect disease progression earlier and will also evaluate patient satisfaction, usability, and the impact on health-related quality …
An Exploratory Study of CD19/CD22/BCMA CAR-T Cells (BZE2204) in Subjects With Relapsed or Refractory Autoimmune Diseases
This is a single arm, open-label, dose escalation and expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of autologous chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells targeting CD19/CD22/BCMA(BZE2204) in patients with relapsed or refractory active autoimmune diseases, including idiopathic inflammatory myopathies(IIM), immune thrombocytopenia(ITP), systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE).
Dynamics in Bone Turnover Markers During and After Short-term Glucocorticoid Treatment in Patients With an Inflammatory Joint Disease
Bone turnover markers (BTMs) are recommended as an important tool in follow-up of osteoporosis treatment. However, there is a lack of knowledge in the reliability of BTMs during and after glucocorticoid treatment. Glucocorticoids suppresses BTMs during treatment with at least 30% and, moreover, glucocorticoids increase the risk of fractures. Patients …
Diffuse Cutaneous Scleroderma (DSSc) SFDI Study
Scleroderma (SSc) is an autoimmune disease characterized by fibrosis (or collagen deposition) of the skin and internal organs. The extent of skin fibrosis is an important predictor of internal organ complications and increased mortality. Currently a very imprecise, subjective method that varies amongst different doctors for the same patient is …
Assessment of Physician Consideration of EPRO's, from Patients with Gout, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sjogren's Syndrome or Systemic Lupus, on the Frequency of Therapeutic Adjustments
Inflammatory rheumatic diseases affect 1% of the population. Treatment of such diseases should be based on disease activity, safety issues and other patient characteristics such as comorbidities (EULAR, 2022), leading to a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. To this end, the general treat-to-target approach, as recommended in the EULAR guidance, …
