Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–75 - NCT06806592RecruitingPhase 3
Testing nerandomilast for lung scarring from rheumatic disease
This study tests a new medicine called nerandomilast to see if it can help people with lung scarring caused by autoimmune rheumatic diseases like rheumatoid arthritis or scleroderma. The goal is to slow down lung damage and improve breathing.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07115745RecruitingPhase 1
Donor CAR T cells for severe autoimmune diseases
This study tests a new type of CAR T-cell therapy made from healthy donor cells. It is designed to help people with severe autoimmune diseases that have not improved with standard treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT01351545Recruiting
Cryopreserved cord blood access program for transplant patients
This trial studies an organized way to obtain and distribute unlicensed (not FDA-approved for general use) stored cord blood units that have been frozen and kept. It may help people who need a cord blood transplant but don’t fit the “licensed cord blood only” options.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1

Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06925542RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CTX112 for adults with autoimmune disease
This trial tests an experimental cell therapy called CTX112 for people with lupus, scleroderma, or inflammatory myositis that hasn't responded well to standard treatments. The goal is to see if it's safe and if it can help control the disease.

Looking at immune cells in people with autoimmune disease
This study collects blood, tissue, and other samples from people with autoimmune diseases like Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis, or lupus. Researchers will study your immune cells (T cells) to learn what they are attacking, which could lead to better treatments in the future.
Waltham, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03848962Recruiting
Share leftover or collected samples for research
This study helps collect and share human samples (like blood or other specimens) so researchers can do new studies. It’s mainly about providing samples for research use, not testing a treatment on you.
Lexington, MassachusettsAges 1 month–89 years - NCT06557265RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
NKX019 for lupus kidney disease or membranous nephropathy
This trial tests an experimental cell therapy called NKX019 for people with active lupus nephritis (a type of kidney inflammation from lupus) or primary membranous nephropathy (another kidney condition) that hasn't gotten better after standard treatments. It may help if you have tried at least two treatments for lupus kidney disease or one for membranous nephropathy and still have active kidney disease.

What taking part in a autoimmune diseases study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
