AlloNK and rituximab for relapsing rheumatologic diseases
This trial tests a new natural killer (NK) cell therapy called AlloNK given with rituximab for people with certain autoimmune diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's disease, inflammatory myopathies, or systemic sclerosis) that have not responded well to standard treatments.

What taking part in a down syndrome 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.
