Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- NCT06587828Recruiting
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.
Harrisburg, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06626919RecruitingPhase 1
A cell therapy trial for generalized myasthenia gravis
This trial tests a new cell therapy called anitocabtagene autoleucel (anito-cel) for people with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) that is not well controlled with current treatments. The goal is to see if it can reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab for advanced cancer with autoimmune conditions
This Phase 1 study tests nivolumab, an immunotherapy “anti-cancer accelerator,” in people with advanced cancer who also have an autoimmune disorder. It aims to see if nivolumab can be given safely and whether it may help shrink or control cancer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05750498Recruiting
Study to improve outcomes in autoimmune liver disease
This trial tests approaches to improve health outcomes for people with autoimmune liver diseases. It includes specific autoimmune conditions affecting the liver and bile ducts, and it may help your care team learn what works best for these illnesses.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT05875155Recruiting
Saving eggs by freezing ovarian tissue during cancer or surgery care
This trial looks at freezing ovarian tissue to help protect future fertility for people who may lose ovarian function from medical treatments or ovarian surgery. It may help you preserve the chance to have children later when egg or embryo freezing alone isn’t an option.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges Up to 39 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.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT05029336RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant using your own cells for autoimmune disease
This Phase 2 study tests an autologous stem cell transplant (a treatment using your own blood-forming stem cells) for severe systemic sclerosis or severe lupus. The goal is to reset the immune system to help control the autoimmune disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 8–25 - NCT06278337Recruiting
Moesin-associated immunodeficiency study
This study looks at a rare immune system condition caused by changes in the MOESIN gene. It aims to better understand the condition and may help develop future treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 4–80 - NCT06308978RecruitingPhase 1
Study of FT819 for B-cell autoimmune diseases
This trial tests a new cell therapy, FT819, for people with certain autoimmune diseases like lupus, vasculitis, myositis, or scleroderma that haven't improved with at least two previous treatments. The goal is to see if it can help control the disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 12–70 - NCT02753777Recruiting
Study for blistering autoimmune skin diseases
This study is for adults with certain autoimmune blistering skin conditions. Researchers want to better understand and test treatments that could improve symptoms and healing for people with these specific diseases.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05787574RecruitingPhase 2
Reducing inflammation before stem cell transplant in immune disorders
This Phase 2 study tests medicines that calm inflammation before the first stem cell transplant. It aims to make transplant safer and more effective for people with certain inherited immune regulation or inflammatory conditions.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT06730126RecruitingPhase 2
Soquelitinib for ALPS-FAS-related swelling and low blood counts
This trial tests an investigational drug called soquelitinib to see if it can shrink enlarged lymph nodes and improve low blood cell counts in people with ALPS-FAS. It may offer a new treatment option for those who have active symptoms.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 16–120 - NCT07103746RecruitingPhase 2
Ublituximab for antibody-positive IMNM
This study tests an investigational medication called ublituximab (an infusion) for people with a rare autoimmune muscle disease called IMNM. It aims to reduce muscle weakness and damage by targeting specific immune cells (B cells). To join, you need a recent diagnosis (within 1 year), specific antibodies, and be on limited other medications.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07284641RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant for immune disorders
This trial tests a stem cell transplant to treat common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) and other immune problems. It aims to replace a faulty immune system with a healthy one from a donor.

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.

Common questions
- Are there autoimmune diseases clinical trials in Pennsylvania?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 15 recruiting autoimmune diseases studies with a site in Pennsylvania, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a autoimmune diseases study in Pennsylvania?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Pennsylvania to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Pennsylvania, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a autoimmune diseases trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New autoimmune diseases studies open in Pennsylvania regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
Clin2 helps you find and understand clinical trials and does not provide medical advice. Study data comes from ClinicalTrials.gov. Talk with your doctor about whether a specific trial is right for you.
