Interferon levels in cancer and autoimmune disease patients
This study looks at a protein called interferon in the blood of people with cancer who are starting immunotherapy, and people with certain autoimmune diseases (such as lupus, Sjögren's syndrome, scleroderma, or inflammatory myopathy). The goal is to compare interferon patterns and better understand immune responses.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 333 recruiting lupus or sle studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a lupus or sle trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a lupus or sle trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
